Two Factions Fight for Negro Church Building An Interesting suit for possession of the Negro Baptist church building In Upper Alton, formerly the Holy Temple, now the Tabernacle Baptist church, Is In prospect. J.

S. Lumpkln Is the pastor of a gr6up who are contending for possession, having held on to the old name of the church, Holy Temple. The faction of the congregation at present holding the fort changed the name of the church from Holy Temple to Tabernacle, and they are getting up a new constitution and by-laws, It is understood, which they hope will prevent any further difficulties as to possession of the church. Differences arose between the congregation and two pastors in succession. The Rev.

O. B. Ware, after a stormy career during which he professed see necessity to carry a revolver Into the pulpit with him, had to quit in the face of embarrassing charges. Ware at that time justified by the Scriptures his carrying of hardware Into the pulpit, referring as his precedent to the Biblical story the Jews rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, sword In one hand, trowel In the other. The coming of the Rev.

Lumpkln as pastor seemed like a sweet balm on wounded hearts, at first, but It was not long until Lumpkin was following the example of his predecessor in ousting church officers. Deacon Hogan has the distinction of having been fired as deacon by both pastors. Then Lumpkln was dispossessed at the church, but he carried to other quarters the title of the Holy Temple church, and the building, which had been foreclosed on by the Sprlngman Lumber was sold and bought In by Lumpkln's opponents. Now the old congregation which did not follow Lumpkin has bought back the church building from Sprlngman, and Is In process of getting organized with the Tabernacle church. Now an ouster suit Is in the Circuit court.

Judge Brown will hear arguments on a demurrer Monday. The Lumpkln faction Is seeking to regain possession of the church building and Deacon Hogan's faction is resisting.
