The Labyrinth.

The Fayoum is not often visited by
tourists, although it contains some
of the most wonderful ruins of an
clent Egypt. There is a pyramid about
five miles from Medinet in which a
mumm of an ancient king was re-
Gently found. and there are some
traces left Of the labyrinth described
by Strabo and other travellers. The
Labyrinth is said to have been quite
as wonderful as the pyramids. 1t was
situated on the banks of Lake Moe

5000 rooms half Of hich were

buildings composing the palace were

Strabo says that the ceilings Of every
room consisted of but a single stone.
and that the passages were covered
with slabs Of extraordinary size. Her
odotus, who went through the rooms
above ground, says that the structure
was more wonderful than the pvra-
mlds, and that the windinge through
the courts presented a thousand o.

Layn,en Becoming Interested
 ;n the Work of the Church

Layman's Missionary Movement and voted to raise S1,000.000 for missions. besides $100,00G. which is to be for Chinese work exclusively.
 The Texas Baptists approved the vote of the Southern Baptist Convention held at Richmond. and immediately orr ganized a State branch with the dis tinct understanding. however, that the movement should not contemplate any separate denominationalt board or agency, but should simply stimulate the laymen to more effective and faithful activity through the established boards or agencies.
 It was interesting to note at this convention that the preachers outnum- bered the laymen. It was referred to more than once by the speakers, but always in a good natured way.
 Robert H. Coleman. of Dallas. told these Baptists that the laymen should pick out the proper site for the church, that they should provide proper music and singing in the church. that they should protect the preachers, and end- ed by defining the duties succinctly as follows:
 Person, not proxy, the layman sN call; position, not profession, his chance; passion, not prudence. his culture. M
 The movement has forged ahead more rapidly than even its most ardent enthusiasts had contemplated.
 At Topeka, Kan. a mems dinner brought together 100 of the leading laymen of the city It was found that the churches of the city as a whole gave about $S.000 annually to foreign missions. These men determined that the amount should be made at least $25,000. and a committee was named to secure the amount within sixty days, which is now being done.

of a readjustment and . strengthsn. ing of the moral and church forces.
 Representative business and profes- sional men who have not in the past measured up to their.fulI privilege in the moral service of society. are now responding in g generous and noble manner, fully realizing the tremend- ous problems the moral and religious forces are facing. Fraternal relations between the denominations themselves are increasing.
 The old animosities are disappear. ing. Men are coming to understand the things that are held in common. They are showing 8 profound belief now that the main business of the world is to establish Righteousness and peace and happiness on the earth, and. no matter what methods may be taken or under what name. it Is al the same.
 The laymen's movement fostered by the Episcopalians and seen in all it's strength here in the gathering of the great Presbyterian Brotherhood. which ranks well up with the Brotherhood or St. Andrew. has just been put into full swing

Matter of Raising Funds For Con- struction of New House of wor- ship Rumored to be Among
 Matters to Come Up.

Today is to be rally day at the First Presbyterian church The pastor of the church has been very busy the past week mailing postal cards to the mem- bers of his congregation, notifying them of the occasion and urging their attendance
 There will be surprises and many Of them, brought up at tho meeting Just what these surprises are. however, can only be conjectured. by vague rumors which have been .afloat for some time past---rumors that have puzzled the members of the congrega- tion who have heard them as to their accuracy and as to their origin.
 Vague rumor has it there is a move ment on foot among the church of- ffcers and few members of the con gregation for the raising of funds for the building of a new place of wor- 1 ship. Further. that sum of money will be set aside at the meeting today for this purpose. But whether this
 will be on the program is only a mat ter of conjuncture.
 Another matter which is exciting the
 laymen of the Southern Presbyterian n | church. and the Southern churches of all denominations. is the gigantic | foreign missionary movement now on | foot to evangelize the whole world. | Probably this matter will be presented to the attention of the congregation l today.
 l The matter was presented to the East | Alabama Presbytery ten days ago, at | meeting at the Central Presbyterian | church by MT. Ostrom, who with
 specially prepared charts showed the great responsibility of the Southedn
 church in the matter of foreign mis- | sions. | Meanwhile Rally Day at the First
 Presbyterian church promises to be full
 of surprises to the members, and tho
 congregation is on edge with excite. | ment.

erinx discovered that the iz.ooo church members gave about e11.000 yearly to mission work. It was decided that this should be increased four-foid and made $50.0e. Influential business men at once started the canvass.
 Wherever these meetings have been held the Idea has taken root with the prospect of plentiful harvest. All the money that is raised goes te the missions. There is no expense to the fund for raising it. The men who arc doing the work share the outlay what ever 1t may be.
 The Methodists of Texas and Tennes- see have taken steps in the same line. number of wealthy men in the Hol- ston conference of the Methodist Epis- copal Church, South, have agreed 70 contribute literally to advance every branch of mission work at home and abroad. A financial agent will be ap- pointed to canvass the section careful ly, but the permanent forward moye- ment is not to be organized until next summer. The Northwest Texas Meth odist Conference proposes to join win others to send a commission or hfty business men to learn the conditions or the foreign field.
 Prop of Church of England.
 The Church of England Mems So- ciety has long been a power in the re- ligious life of that country. But even that organization has just begun to feel it's strength. Sixty or seventy years ago there was no organized so- ciety in the church for banding to- gether of men who were keen about the religious life.
 The Archbishop of Canterbury lays the success of the Episcopal Church to these mems hands. Recently he said he believed that if the Methodist Church in England had had such or- ganizations when that movement start ed there would have been hundreds of thousands in the denomination today.
 The situation the country over is se- rious. but not hopeless. The public has begun to see what will be demand ed of 1t. Men outside of the profes. sionally religious life admit the need

 The many friends of Dr. F. c. Railey will be glad to know that there is a possibility that he will remain in Ala bama and carry on his work in this State. It is probable that he will re- ceive a call from the Presbyterian Church of Gadsden.
 Dr. Railey served as a temporary sup ply to the First Presbyterian Church in this city after the death of Dr. Pat terson of that church until MT.

 The money they had raised was but a small part of the good that it had been wroght. 1t was only the material manifestation of the power of the busi- ness man in the church. once he be- came interested
 The tercentennial fund was the first ever raised by the men alone. It gave them sense of their own power. More than that, it went beyond the Episcopal church. It turned up in other denominations. The great num- Der of men who came here for the Presbyterian Brotherhood meetings was an evidence of how much in earn est the men are, now that they have once started,
 No organization in the last cen- tury," said Prof. J. R. Howerton. of Washington and Lee University" has been fraught with more good than an organization of Christian men such as this. I mean no disparagement of woman's work in religion or home life or elsewhere. What woman has done for this country and for the world has always been for the best and has been great; but say that men can do more good in religious work than women.
 Men have more power to do good as we'll as evil. It is men who are the
 
 who fill the jails and penitentfaries, and men who make the bad laws. In spite of this 1t is the men who can do the most good in religion because of their position in business and politics. Men are the teachers and the preach CTS, and if we are to win the world for Christ the men must be made to do more for religion"
 This was the keynote of the con vention. The thought that Professor Howerton had expressed is to be put into concrete form by President Ira Landrith, of Belmont College, Nash vile. Elected as general secretary of the Brotherhood, he will push the work from Nashville, though the head quarters will be moved to Chicago. and the thought is that eventually he will give up his educational work to devote all his tame to the Brotherhood
 The organization started without a dollar. An the past year $3,700 has been expended by the Council of Twen. ty-one, and for the next two years, it is planned to use $24,000 in extending the lay movement in the church. At one session over $15,000 of this amount was subscribed.

 The churches are very busy at pres ent with the Thanksgiving services which will be held at the First Baptist Church o4 Thursday morning.
 The annual conference of Method ists, which will this year be held at En- terprise on December 4. Is expressing the attention of the members of that denomination.
 Bishop E. E. Hoss of Nashville will be present at the conference and will probably preside. The conference will be interesting both to the ministers of the church and to the members of the various congregations over the State, as many questions will be discussed.
