CHl'RCH STRKKT
ne City's Force csettlnic
to Do Home PavlnK.
Church street has been rolled between
Trinity Episcopal and Central Metho
dist churches, and a force of hands under
Street Superintendent Henderson began
spreading sand this morning, prepara
tory to paving the street with brick
At present the idea is to pave northward
only to the Methodist church, as the
matter of widening on the west side be
tween the church and Patton avenue has
not been settled. The street between
these points is 24 feet wide, with no side
walk, and the city wants six feet on that
side for a walk. A jury will probably
go on the street soon. If no satisfactory
arrangement can be made the entire
street will be paved 2 feet wide, leaving
no walk on the west side down to the
Methodist church. There is a sidewalk
on that side the remainder of the dis
tance.
In paving, the Buncombe Brick and
Tile company's brick will be used, and
the work done by the city's force, in the
style of the Merrimon avenue paving.
V. M. C A. Matters.
The Rev. W.J. Erdman will conduct
"question and answer" meeting for men
on Sunday afternoon next at the regular
hour in the Y. M. C. A. hall. Questions
will he asked by persons in the audience
and Mr. Erdman will answer tbem. The
questions will be of a religious character,
The regular quarterly meeting of the
association will be held in the rooms on
Monday evening of next week. Reports
of all committees will be read, n illustra
ted lecture, it is expected, will be given,
and refreshments will be served by the
ladies' committee.
