GREAT GOSPEL TABERNACLE;
WILL SEAT 6,000 PERSONS;
A CITY UNDER ONE ROOF
Dr. Broughton Outlines De ails of Plans For
Big Buil ing To Be Built by Public
Stock Company.
The detail* of the plans for the great
tabernacle and auditorium haro been
given out by Dr. Len a. Broughton, the
principal promoter of tho new enter
prise. The great building will bo erect
ed at Spring and Luckle streets, will
be six stories In height and will seat
(,000 persons. It will cost about $100,-
000.
With the completion of the taber
nacle and the big armory-auditorium,
which Is to be erected by the city, At
lanta will have two public buildings of
capacity sufficient for the lafgost
meetings, even a national political con
vention.
Dr. Broughton made the following
outline of the plans for the work:
“Our plans tor tho undertaking have
taken shape, and wo contemplate the
following:
“An office ahd apartment building
six or more stories high, fronting
Spring street about ISO feet, and ex-
tending down Lucklo street about SO
feet, to be for offices and apartments
exclusively.
"Another apartment building, which
will be rented for the working girls’
dormitory, fronting Luckle street ISO
by 20 feet, and joined to the main
building.
"An auditorium building to the rear
of the main building on Spring street
and the working girls’ dormitory wing
on Luckle street, containing two bal
conies, entered by clovators, having two
main entrances, ono by an arcade, ex
tending through the main office and
apartment building, the other the work
ing girls’ dormitory wing on Luckle
street, the audltoriutn to contain 1,000
■eats.
“A basement extending underneath
both buildings for. the lowor auditorium
for Sunday school work, administra
tion offices, classes, gymnasiums, bath
room, reading rooms, parlor and the
like.
“In addition to this plan, the Taber
nacle Infirmary has purchned the low
er third of the same block, and will
erect a four-strfry, fire-proof building
for. the Tabernacle lnnrmary.
Contemplated Purposes,
“To furnish the Tabernacle church
with an auditorium sufficient for Its
Sunday congregations, and the city and
community with an auditorium for
conventions, musicals, religious and ed>
ucatlonal gatherings.
'To furnish adequate quarters for
the Institutional and philanthropic work
of the Tabernacle churcl. and It* sys
tem.
"To secure In ren'als from the audl
torium, stores, offices, apartments and
dormitories funds with which to carry
bonded debt and a>d In the support of
the Institutional and philanthropic work
of the Tabernacle church and Its sys
tem.
Reasonable Proposition.
“The record of the Tabernacle church
and Its system of humanities:
“We point with some degree of pride
to the record In Atlanta and through
out the country that the church and
Its various departments of humanitar
ian work has made. Beginning seven
years ago with practically nothing,
save a great faith In God and a confi
dence In the people with which to back
Its endeavors, the work has gone stead
ily forward until today its annual
financial expenditures. Including Its In
stitutional work, amounts to something
over $50,000. And this does not take
Into account the ranld growth of the
membership of the church from a small
membership of about 100 to something
like 2,000 at present; nor does it take
Into account the fact that regularly it
has maintained a congregation which Is
second to few. If any, on this, conti
nent Nor does It attempt to estimate
NEGRO CHILD-CREMATED;
WAS LOCKED IN HOUSE
TWO FOR ONE-
Special to Tbe Georgian.
Newberry, S. C., Nov. 1#.—Locked In
a house while Its parents were in a
near-by field at work, the six-months-
old child of Spencer Robertson, col
ored, was Wednesday burned to death.
The house was burned to the ground.
The negroes left lh the early morning
for the field, leaving their three chil
dren locked In the house. At about 1
o'clock the house was discovered on
nre. The door was broken down and
two of the children rescued, but not
before they had received serious burns.
The youngest child, which was resting
In a cradle near the Ore place, could
not be reached on account of the flames
and consequently It perished.
the general good that has been done by
Its Infirmary for the sick. Its training
school for nurses, Its Bible and mis
sionary training Institute, Its working
girls' dormitory. Its night schools and
classes. Its lyceum course, Its annual
March Bible conference of Christian
workers, which brings to the city the
leading Bible teachers and preachers of
the world, and hundreds and thousands
of Christian workers from all parts of
the Southland. These things are Im
possible to estimate. The good that
they do the community cannot be put
on paper.
“We are glad of this record and feel
that upon It we can claim the confi
dence and support of the business men
and the good people generally of our
city and country.
What It Guarantees.
“The Institutions outside the regular
church building (because there Is net
room Inside) pay $300 per month rent
This Is 6 per cent on $00,000. The
reasons these Institutions are able to
pay this amount of rent Is because
many pf them are self-pustalplng. They
would be able to pay 'twice this much
If the additional room was furnished,
for they are not able to do half the
work they are called upon to do. It Is
fair to estimate that our Institutions
alone, with the contemplated enlarged
opportunity, would pay 10 per cent on
$100,000. This does not contemplate
other Incomes from rentals, such as
the auditorium for conventions, musi
cals and the like, and main building.
’’From a careful estimate of the In
come from the rentals, we are able to
figure that the main office'and apart
ment building, without the ground floor,
will pay 10 per cent on $180,000, the
ground floor for stores and offices will
besides furnishing the church with a
home. This Is $100,000 In excess of
what the property will cost Taking all
this Into consideration, we feel sure
that any business man will see at once
that our proposition la safe and sound.
'To say nothing of the business side
of the proposition, everybody Is bound
to admit that there Is a need In Atlanta
and throughout the South for such a
work as we are attempting to do.
Every church and every community Is
not so situated as to operate on these
lines, but all agree that Atlanta Is an
Ideal place; and we feel that the com
munity generally Is ready to acknowl
edge our fitness for such a work.
The Finanelsl Plan,
The building and scheme Is In
charge of a realty company, which la
composed of some of the best business
men In Atlanta. This company has
obtained a charter, capitalising the en
terprise at $100,000, with the privilege
of $300,000, 10 per cent of which has
already been paid In. The shares are
divided up In denominations of $10.
“This amount Is to be obtained In
three ways:
“By direct gifts of stock; by sale of
stock, and by sale of bonds.
“Of course we are anxious first for
gifts, Inasmuch as It will bring a larg
er Income of rentals to a
duct of the Institutions
nacle system. The more the stock the
church holds, the larger per cent of the
Income It will have.
'But where gifts cannot be obtained,
we will offer stock, feeling assured that
the proposition has In It enough busi
ness to guarantee all stockholders. The
(round itself, which the company holds,
n addition to the present property of
_ propel _
Jay 10 percent on $$0,000, the workingithe Tabernacle church, Is worth on the
girls' dormitory; wing, which will ex-
tend down Luckle street, will pay 10
per cent on $30,000, the rentals from
the auditorium for general .convention
lurposes will pay 10 per cent on $60,-
00. All this foots up to $300,000. That
Is to say, .the enterprise will pay 10
per cent on that amount of Investment
