SUNDAY SCHOOL
 REFORMS NEEDED
URGED AT FIRST METHODIST RALLY THAT TEACHERS GIVE MORE THOUGHT TO PROMOTION OF SOCIAL SPIRIT.

The Sunday school ralley at the First Methodist church last night was well at tended. The devotional exercises were led by w. P Brewer. after which J. $. Bridges made a talk on How to Hold the Young People in the Sunday School He said it is a regretable fact that majority of young men and young women drift away from the Sunday schools, and at tributed this condition to the fact that officers and teachers fail to look at the needs and desires of the young people from the young peoples view point. He urged the teachers to present the les sons in a more attractive manner, to foster the social spirit and, as far as possible, to promote good fellowship among the members of their classes. He pointed out the possibilities of bringing many young men and women of Birming- ham into the Sunday schools If right methods were adopted. In closing he urged the teachers present to strive first for the conversion of the members of their classes and then direct them In some form of definite Christian service.
 J. D. Moore spoke interestingly on The Sunday School as a Character Builder . He contrasted the Sunday school of Rob- ert Ralks' day with the modern school. emphacised the Influence of the teacher upon the pupil and urged a careful, pains- taking teaching of the lesson, line upon line and precept upon precept until the truths taught became very part of the lives of those who were instructed. A telegram was read from Col. s. w. John in which he said he was detained in Tus- caloosa and could not be present to full fill his part on the programme
 The session was brought to a close with a short talk by the pastor, Dr. James A. Duncan.
 The programme for tonight Is as fol- lows:
 Music by the church choir with a duet by Misses Wyle and Sanford
 7:45 D. m.-Devotional exercises. Dr. Ballard.
 500 D. m-"How to Build and Hold & Glass;" Joel c. DuBose.
 S:15 D. m.-Primary work.
 S:3O D. m.--"Dutes of Teachers" R. Lewis.
 s:45 p. m.-Short talks from teachers, open.
 The services will continue through Sun day. pr. H. M Hamill will make ad- dresses on that day at II q. m., D. m and D. m. His topics will be "The Bible and the Sunday School" How to make Sunday School Go." and "The Hardest Sunday School Problem"
 Dr. Hamill is a Sunday school worker of national reputation and crowds throng to hear him wherever he goes.

IRVING'S ASHES 60
 TO WESTMINSTER
AMBASSADOR REID WILL REPRE- SENT UNITED STATES AT THE FUNERAL OF THE DlSTIN- GUISHED ACTOR TODAY.

London, sDctober 19.-The ashes of Sir Henry Irving, enclosed in a plain oaken coffin, are now lying in the chapel of Saint Faith, Westminster Abbey, await ing tomorrows elaborate ceremony of in- torment in Poets Corner. Their removal from the residence of the Baroness Bur dett-Coutts, which was guarded by large force of police, took place at o'clock this evening" The coffin was placed in hearse. preceded by mounted police and followed by one carriage, the occupants of which were the two sons of the de- ceased and Sir Henry's aged dresser, Walter Collins, who had been his at tendant for half century.
 This modest procession was accompanied by another squadron of mounted police. The entire route to the abbey was lined by thousands of persons, the men stand ing bareheaded, waiting in respectful sl- lence as the hearse passed, and then Joined in procession behind the police On arrival at the abbey the entire square was filled with a hatless multitude. The hearse was driven into the deans yafu' where 1t was met by the dean of West minister and a number of the clergy.
 The scene was most impressive as the procession moved and disappeared among the gloomy, timeworn cloisters. The silence was broken only by the foot falls of the clergy and bearers. The pub lie was not admitted to the abbey. AS the procession entered, the great organ softly played the dead march from saul until the chapel of St. Faith was reached and the coffin had been placed on q catafalque. When the music stopped a short prayer was said by the dean.
 An open grave in Poets Corner awaits tomorrow's ceremony.
 It Is lined with heavy black cloth, which also carpets the floor for distance or several yards. The walls of the chapel are banked with great piles of floral tributes, Ambassador and Mrs. Whitelaw Reid are coming to London from Scot land to represent the United States at the funeral tomorrow.

NEW SCIENCE HALL
 ABOUT COMPLETED
BUILDING AT HOWARD COLLEGE WILL COST ABOUT SIP 900 AND WILL BE WELL EOUIPPED-MAY MAKE CHANGE.

The new science hall which Is being erected on the Howard college campus will be completed in the next thirty days. The building will cost about $12,OOO and will be one of the best equipped structures of it's kind in the state.
 The hall will consist of chemical and physical laboratories and a library. The structure is being built of pressed brick and will be two-stories high.
 When completed 1t will be supplied with the most modern equipments.
 It is understood that the library will be placed temporarily in the science hall, as there is a movement among the friends of Howard to get Andrew Carnegie to donate a library to the institution. No action has been taken looking to a Car negie library, but it Is reported that many friends of the college are contemplating such a step.
 Dr. A. P Montague, president of How ard, has met with very gratifying success In his efforts to secure the $l00.000 endow- ment fund for the college During the past two months he has raised over $io- 900 of the $76000 that the college must have subscribed to meet the offer of John D. Rockefeller.
 The friends of the college are rallyins enthusiastically to it's support and it Is thought that by the first of the year the remainder, 5000, will have been raised.

 PLAY THIS AFTERNOON

 Good ReCord-The Game Will Start at 3 O'clock

Back of the line Auburn will depend to large extent on Foy and Lacey, two of the best on last years team. The Pat tersons. who are playing ends, have de- veloped wonderfully this year, and both are good on either the offensive or de- fensive.

 Auburn weighs about 165 pounds, and the manager of Davidson stated last night that his team was. probably one pound lighter. The lineup of the two teams for the game this afternoon will be as fol- lows:
 Auburn-Center, Holley. Hughes Or Pen ton; guards Moon and Whitner; tackles, Jones and Streit; ends, J. H. and J. F. Patterson; quarterback, Perkins; fullback, Lacey; right half, Foy; left half, Neill.
