April 13, 1900--The United Brethren are arranging to build a new church in Peru. They have been worshipping since last fall in the Odd Fellows temple (the old M.E. church). They have organized a society of 58 members, bought a lot, corner Main and Clay, and have already raised subscriptions amounting to $4,000. It is expected that the new church will cost $10,000. Peru is not over-stocked with churches, especially in the east end of town. Every church is a centre of moral influence, and a nucleus around which good people are gathered.
