SOW HB 18 TO BUILD A TABERNA
CLE IN PLACB OP ONB BURNED.
Baseall Base Loans $125.000 to the
Church Trustees, and Sir. Talmage
Insures Bis Life In Part Payment of
the Sum.
From the Philadelphia Press.
New York, Sept. 9.—Talmage has got
his money and the Brooklyn tabernacle
jjl finished within six months. It has
. a *en a y&st deal of negotiation, many
pleadings, and some downright begging to
secure the great sum needed to erect the
largest tabernacle in the world. Asa last
resource, the tabernacle t:ustees went to
Hassell Sage, and this afternoon he signed
ar agreement by which he loans them
$125,000 for the period of one year at 6 per
cent. Interest
Behind this simple statement lies a story
which deserve* to le told in some detail.
When the old tabernacle was burned last
fall the shock to Dr. Talmage was but mo
mentary, although many of his congrega
tion feared that it would be hard to recover
from the blow. The society represented
by the tabernacle was not rich, although its
receipts were very large. But the expen
ditures were enormous, being greater than
that of any other church in Brooklyn, and
exceeded only by one or two m New York.
When tl*e trustees got together they
agreed that they had one possession which
was sure to give them renewed finauoial
standing, provided only that they were
sure that this pos-ession lasted; that was
Dr Talmage himself, who is estimated to
be good for #25,00U or *30,000 a year for
a good many years to coine, provided only
he lives that length of time. Besides this
incoruoreal hereditament the society pos
sessed nothing else than a plat of ground
on Scbemerhom street, not worth very
much, and the ruins of the old Tabernacle,
worth less,
DR. TALMAGE TO THE FRONT.
They had, however, the splendid vitality
and exuberant enthusiasm of Talmage, and
be sounded the campaign cry just before he
left on his famous trip to the Holy Laud
last fall. He said: “We will build the
largest and finest edifice for the worship of
(Jod in the world. We will make it a
princely tabernacle. It shall cost a great
Sum of money, for when great fortunes are
eplmt in erecting theaters, shall It be said
that those who worship God are to be out
done by their worldly-minded fellow-
men 1”
The doctor proposed all manner of
schemes. He was willing to turn in a part
cf his salary; to subscribe a handsome sum
which lie was to obtain from his lectures;
he was to appeal through hs newspapers
io every Presbyterian and every Christian
in the iand to help; and he suggested other
schemes which it was thought would bring
a fui.d of SIOO,OOO. Business men rather
laughed at the doctor. They thought that
he might make good a subscription of $59,-
000 or $60,000, b ut they thought it was pre
posterous to suppoeo that $500,000 could be
raised within a year, and that was the
sum which was the minimum figure which
the doctor set for the purchase of land and
erection of the new tabernacle.
Dr. Talmage went to the Holy Land, and
his trustees went to work. The doctor found
iu Jerusalem the rock upon which, accord
ing to tradition, St. Paul stood when preach
ing to the Jews, and he had a good piece of
it hewn out, brought home, and it is to be
put in place as the coruerstoue of the new
tabernacle. He did other things while he
was abroad which he said were both for the
glory of God and to bear witness through
all the land that the Brooklyn tabernacle was
erecting anew edifice in which the Almighty
might be worshiped.
WHAT THE TRUSTEES DID.
The trustees got together the flotsam and
jetsam of the old tabernacle property, sold
it and the iand on which the old building
stood, aud, with this money and some sub
scriptions which they received, and some
returns from Dr. Talraage’splaintive plead
ings, they got together a sum sufficiently
large to buy a plat of ground in the most
aristocratic part of Brooklyn.
They bought a corner lot ocoupying an
entire block, fronting ou Greene avenue,
between Clinton avenue and Waverlv place.
It is the oenter of Brooklyn fashionable life
and is a beautiful location, being near Fort
Greeue park, which is not only a pretty
place, but is interesting because of the tra
ditions of tbe revolutionar war centering
there. They paid $106,000 cash down for this
lot, and then began to collect money for
tbe edifice. Avery beautiful design was
adopted. There is no church in New York
or Brooklyn of Buch exquisite architectural
proportion as this. It suggests the famous
Holy Trinity church of Boston, although it
is not an imitation of that beautiful struct
ure. It is to cost $350,000, and, with the
new organ and otter incidentals, the cost of
the structure will reach about $190,000; so
that, with the laud, the new tabernacle
will represent tbe sum of $505,000.
WANTED A LOAN OF $150,000.
With subscriptions, voluntary and asked
for, with little contributions dribbled from
all over the land, with some SIO,OOO or
$12,000 received from tin subscribers to Dr.
Talmage’s paper, the truftees have been en
abled to go ahead with tie building, while
Dr. Talmage Is traveling here and there
■ working like a beaver toraise more money.
H It was apparent, howevr, that not enough

19 lent a large sum, and be trustees decided

TALMAGE INSURES HIS LIFE.
Now the prscarlousneeaof human life, es
pecially such a valuable life as Dr. Tal
mage's, and the absolute dependence of the
Tabernacle Society upon that life for
financial prosperity, have caused the
guarantee company to look for some better
security than the tabernacle building and
the land on which, it stands. They have got
it. In the first place they sent Dr. Talmage
to a physician, who reported that the doctor
was in sound health and therefore was a
food subject for a $25,000 life insurauce.
'his pohey was written, and the guarantee
company is made the beneficiary in case of
tbe doctor's death.
Dr. Talmage keeps himself in perfect
health. He says he never wes stronger or
more vigorous, and he h ipes that it will
please God to spare him many years, that he
may make the tabernacle spiritually what
it is externally, the most impressive demon
stration to the honor of God iu this coun
try-

Mr, Georee Hoppie of Atlanta has just
returned from a trip to organize a oompany
to build a railroad from Bremen, on tbe
Georgia Pacific, to Bowdon, in Carroll
county, and says that the Deople of B'-wden
took $13,000 worth of stock in the railroad
in one day.
The East Tennossee. Virginia and Georgia
railroad has received several new mail cars
that are an improvement on any yet used
on the company’s lines, inasmuch as the
drawers are reversible. Going one way tbe
drawers show one set of labels and back
they show another.
The sale of "party tickets" has been re
sumed by nearly all railroads. This means
that a party of ten or more persons travel
ing together will be transported at a rate
equivalent to two-thirds of a single first
class fare, aud applies particularly to trav
eling theatrical combinations and ~ base ball
clubs.
The South Carolina and Columbia and
Greenville divisions of the Richmond and
Danville railway system are preparing £or
a heavy freight business this fall and win
ter. Three large new Rogers locomotives
have just arrived at the Richmond and
Danville yards, and two more of the same
kind are expected In a few days.
The G. 8. & F. and the H. V. <& W. road*
both own cotton compsesses at Valdosta,
and now compress all cotton shipped from
Valdosta free, aud tbe commission men pay
back tho usual compress charges to ths
shiDpers. This is what the Central does oa
its main line, and In addition to compress
ing the cotton free here in Savannah, it
gives warehouse room.
Mr. E. C. Machen is working earnestly
in behalf of his road from Atlanta to Sa
vannah. He will have a party of eastern
capitalists in Atlanta next Thursday for the
purpose of showing them the advantages of
the road he is building, and to get them to
put money into it. It is expected that lie
will be able to show them that his enter
prise is a promising one.
Mr. G. M. Fcilgor, obief clerk in the office
of Assistant Superintendent Aveilbe of the
Savanuah, Florida and Western railway,
has accepted a position with Messrs. A.
Minis’ Sons. A. F. Marmelstein, Jr.,
traveling secretary to Supt. R.
G. Fleming, has been promoted to fill
tbe position of ohief clerk in Assistant
Superintendent Aveilhe’s office.
The general superintendent of the Savan
nah, Americu* and Montgomery road has
placed his private car at tho dispos and of the
delegates from Florida and Georgia who
wish to attend the Brotherhood of Locomo
tive Engineers’ convention, to be held in
Richmond this month. The superintendent
is a stanch brotherhood man, and this gen
erous act of bis will be duly appreciated by
the members.
The Blast Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia people are negotiating with the mi
nority stockholders of tho Memphis and
Charleston road with a view to purchasing
their stock. The East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia own a majority of the Mem
phis and Charleston stock, 'but wants to se
cure the outstanding stock. It is said the
Memphis and Charleston stockholders will
exchange their stock at 80 for East Tennes
see, Virginia and Georgia bonds at 90.
Supt. W. N. Marshall of the Savannah,
Americus and Montgomery road says that
the Western Union is anxious to obtain
Sissession of tbe Savannah, Americus and
ontgomery telegraph line, aud has made
t-e company a proposition for its purchase,
which offer the company is now consider
ing. But as to whether or not it will be
accepted be cannot say. Speaking of the
progress of the line of the Savannah, Ameri
cus and Montgomery construction toward
the Chattahoochee, Mr. Marshall says that
the most satisfactory progress is being
made, and ho believee that the line will be
completed and open to Mon'gomery by
June next.
A French railroad has hit upon anew
source of revenne. In future people who
accompany their friends to any of the
stations on that line to see them off will
only be admitted ou the platform on pay
ment of a fee of one penny, In return for
which they will receive a special ticket of
authorization. For those who are apt to
tarry a long while over their leave-taking
there is a further tax, as the ticket is only
available for one hour, at the end of which
time another must, if necessary, be ob
tained. Even this tax would be preferable
to the absolute exclusion of all non-holders
of tickets that now prevails at almost all
French railway stations.
The Macon Neivs says: It Is not known
when the Macon and Covington rail
road will be sold. It can be sold
on a consent decree at the November
term, 1890, of Bibb superior court, but by
regular course the sale may not ocour until
the April term 1891. It is not known who
will be bidders for the Covington and
Macon. The Richmond and Danville,
Georgia Southern and Florida, the Georgia,
Carolina and Northern, and, perplmps
others p-irties may be bidders. Then again

holders, and the road not put up at public
sale. The bondholders held a meeting in
Baltimore and a oommittee of three wore
appointed to protect the interest of the
bondholders in the litigation.

A CHEROKEE ROMANCE).
How a Wealthy Pennsylvania Girl
Won an Indian Chief.
From the Si. Louis Globe-Democrat.
On a prominent eminenoe iu the prairie
overlooking the town of Tahlequah has
been a solitary grave for sixteen years. It
contained the remains of Mary Downing,
the wife of a full-blooded Cherokee chief,
Lewis Downing. At tho time of her death
the place was her home, and it was her
dying request that she should be
buried on the summit of the hill.
Siucc then tbe property has passed
into strange hands, and the grave has been
in the midst of a oorn field. The present
owner, a gentleman from Georgia, hearing
that she was a chief’s wife, thought it was
due her to rest m a more sacred place. So
her remains wore exhumed to-day and
taken to the Tahlequah cemetery. Her
maiden name was Mary Ayer. She was
born in Bethlehem, Pa., was highly edu
cated and accomplished, and a woman of
wealth. She had very romanti j ideas, and
her infatuation for Indians was extreme.
In 1665 Chief Lewis Downing was sent to
Washington, D. C., on business for the
Cherokeos. Though a full-blood, he spoke
English quite well. While at Washington
be had occasion to visit Bethlehem, and ac
cidently met Miss Ayer, who fell desperate
ly in love with him. The chief lingered
longer in Bethlehem than he had in
tended, not being able to tear himself
away from tbe charms of so fair a
lady, and ere bis departure had
won her consent to be his bride and
share a place Jin his wigwam. ■ i It was
agreed between the two that she should fol
low him to the territory and be married at
the capitaL She required six months to
dispose of her property and oonvert her
valuables into cash. Chief Downing re
turned to his nation, and with him it
proved “out of sight, out of mind.” The
ardor of his love for Miss Ayer soon cooled,
and he wrote withdrawing hi< engagement.
She, after reading his letter, remarked
that “it took two to make a contract and
two to break it," and so wrote him. Before
this letter had reached the chief ho had mar
ried a dusky maiden of his own tribe. Miss
Ayer, having gotten everything in readi
ness, started for the territory. According
to ooutract, she arrived at Tahlequah, and,
on hearing of his marriage, made up her
mind to make her home among his people,
devoting her life to their advancement.
Years elapsed and tbe chief’s wife died.
Miss Ayer being still single, he renewed
his broken vows, and was again ac
cepted. They were married and went
to the home she had built. Tbe life
she had long dreamed of was realized, but
not long was she permitted to fill his house
with light aud love ere death claimed her.
On her death-bed she told tbe chief that on
tbe third evening after her death she would
return to him at her home. But, ho in
heriting the superstition of hi* race, closed
tbe house after the funeral and returned to
his home, about thirty miles distant, on
Grand river. It is said that on the third
night after her burial lights were seen mov
ing from window to window, and the In
dians believe tw this (lay that she reappeared
on that night.
