 MO Asr month a Christian Pavilion"
 O on the worlds fair grounds at R'---- St. Louis was dedicated 'for the advancement of Christ's Kingdom" It was built at a cost of about $4,OOo by the denomination of Christians called the Disciples of Christ. and is in the form of hexagonal, corresponding to the Beth any study of Alexander Campbell, the founder of the denomination. in 1872. As we learn from the Church Economist 1t is to be primarily a social center for gelistic agency"
 This denomination of the Disciples, or the Church of Christi" is little known comparatively hereabouts, and also in the East generally. though it has five churches in New York, and one presi- dent of the United St ltes, President Gar field, was preacher of it's faith; yet of all the churches of this country it's re- cent growth has been the greatest Be- tween 1890 and 1903 1t nearly doubled it's membership increasing from 64l051 to the great total of 1.23579s It is now. as this table of the membership of the largest American churches in 1903 will show sixth in rank among them, according to statistics published by the Federation of Churches:
 Roman Catholics S20. III Methodists .............-............. l92,49f Baptists fi5 Lutherans .2,5tS, 12S fresbyterians .........................l l66l,522 Disciples .......................... ,2sb,10S Episcopalians ......................... iS2,ol5
 The Disciples are dstinctively American in origin, and they have points of affinity with the Baptists. The founder of the sect, Alexander Campbell of Bethany, Va, the son of an Irishman who emigrated in 1S0S was originally a Presbyterian, but he went over to the Baptists in 1872, and like them the disciples practice baptism by inner sion, and of believers only. They differ from them in certain refinements of doc | Urine. but chiefly in making belief in Christ their one article of faith.
 The Disciples, relatively few at the east are now numerous at thu south, and in some of the western states. Their propa- ganda may be called, more particularly a southern movement. At one time they were violently opposed by the Baptists, who, together with the Methodists, make up the great bulk of religious believers | in the south
 | This leads us to say that the most dis | tinctively Protestant part of the union Is the south. Foreign immigration to those | states has been so small that the Roman | Catholics are relatively few except in Louisiana and Maryland. Of recent years missions for the propagation of Roman Catholic doctrine have been conducted in the south. chiefly by Paulist Fathers, but so far little impression seems to have been made on southern Professionalism, in which is included so great majority of l the religious believers, white and black,

"Baptists in Alabama are looking for of the state convention which assemblies in Anniston next Wednesday," said a minister. "Anniston is a delightful little city to visit, and the Parker Memorial church. in which we will meet. is one of the largest and handsomest Baptist churches in the state. The Baptists are very strong in Alabama. and there will be a large attendance at Anniston."

The Star Attraction.

Miss Mabel Kent, pretty country
girl, went to the Orange fair as visitor,
but proved the stellar attraction, though
she gained fame at the cost of serious
injuries. Professor Baker, an aeronaut,
appealed to the crowd for some fair
companion to accompany him to the
clouds Miss Kent, dared by her young
acquaintances, stepped out from the
crowd and said she would 60 Seating
her on the slender trapese rod beside
him, Baker ordered the ropes cut loose.
Then a sudden air current caught the
balloon and turned it completely about
the hands of Miss Kent, fastening them
to the trapese pole.
Baker scaled down the ropes, calling
to the girl to hold fast, and by remark
able acrobaric feat reached the rope
communicating with the valve at the
top of the balloon. He pulled this and
as the gas escaped the balloon shot down
through space.
An under air current caught the bal.
loon, swept it outside of the limits of the
| fair grounds and Miss Kent was landed
in the boughs of a tree. She would
not have been injured had not the fall
ing bag dragged through the limbs OF
the trees, wrenching her body and badl,
bruising her.

MAINE REPUBLICAN.
william T. Todd Elected Governor
by Large Plurality.


PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. 13.-With
William T. Cobb of Rockland heading
their ticket as the candidate for gov
ernor the Republicans carried Maine
at the biennial election by large plu-
rality.
Returns from 450 cities, towns and
plantations out of 522 give William L.
Cobb (Rep), 1884; Cyrus w. Davis
Dem.), 50,017 Same places in 1900
gave Hill Rep), 72,541; Lord Dem.l,
39,514. The Republican gain over 1900
Is now estimated at per cent and the
Democratic gain at "a per cent.
The vote for governor will probably
be the largest since 1888.
The four present congressmen-Amos
l.. Allen in the First. Charles e. Little
field in the second, Il. G. Burleigh IN
the Third and Lewellyn Powers in the
Fourth districts-were reelected, and
Republican majority in the legisla-
ture was assured. The party was also
successful in many county contests, OF
which there were more than the usua
number.
The election passed under conditions
favorable for a large vote. The wealth
er, dull and threatening early in the
day, became clear and inviting before
noon, and the voters. whose enthusi
asm had been thoroughly aroused dur
ing the brief campaign not only by 10
cal speakers, but by orators of nation
al reputation from outside the state
flocked to the polls.
