AN OLD FitIENI) L.Il) LOW.
Orangebuirgr Loses Steeple Thalt WaIs
Oriamtient to City.
Orangeburg, May N6.-- Old things are
missing away-soiue say they must
and liew things are taking li their plac
es. The congrc'gat Ion of the First
Baptist church is having a large ad
dition mnade to tie crliich billing,
and in order to maintain synmetry
and architectural form it has been (le
cided to relove Ithe steelie which has
been an ornatiient to the city for 10lo
these many years. It was to tills stee
ple that the weather prophets looked
for guilance-the wly the wilnd was
blowing-what, the season would likely
be, was it a good tiie to go fishing.
Standing as it, did, the slightest breeze
or change in the weather cirrent, was
instantly indilte(d by this unfailing
ionitor. Iltt it s gone. The tip whclhb
has pointed Ileaven ward for iore than
three score years and the arrow which
doggedly stood in the fa e of breeze
andl blast--four sqluare to all who
looked, since ile tilme of whicho tle
present generation knows notinilug, are
dhownl, flat and1( low, niever to rise again.
This steeple0 was iregardled by archi
tects as a maiisterpiiece of Its kind in
symmlletry andu general beauty, and0
was nearly l100 feet hilgh.
The additioni to the building will be
puishedi to ani early13 complitetion. whleni
the llaptIst of thle cIty will have a
chutrchi edifIce comiparable wvith any in
the state. it it will be pirovided, b-e
sIdes roomt for clhurchi itnld Sitnd~ay
