During the past few years,
-tns demand grew and the
supply diminished, many of
the manufacturer and jobbers,
taking advantage of circum-
stances, allowed their grades to
grow poorer and poorer. For
example, the No. Barn grade
should be a red-knotted lum-
ber; but now, just go to the
average yard and see what
their No. 1 Barn is. Then come
to ours and find it graded as 1t
should be.
BY being particular and CIV
ing something little better
than the other fellow, we have
built up our business.
If you're not buying Of us,
we are both losing by it.

excites apprehension in respectable quar- ters and has given rise to regrettabie effusions of bigotry in others. Al un- founded idea has been disseminated that the congress is a move in the campaign for the restoration of the temporal power of the papacy and the re-establishment or direct relations with the Vatican
 The Spectator adds that the visit or the papal legate to England after three and a half centuries, the cheering crowds in the street and the hoisting of papal flags, have administered a series Of shocks to the people. The danger of un- pleasant scenes during tomorrow's pro- cession does not appear at present to be very great, but there are few rabid spirits here like the members of John Kensits Anti-ritualistic league, who do not hesitate to try to break up services in their own church when these displease them The same element may attempt an outbreak tomorrow. It is certain that a great multitude will be on the streets to see what occurs and the police have made all preparations to deal with the situation. A large force has been or dered to be in readiness.

.LAYMEN DISCUSS
 MISSIONARY WORK Yesterday Devoted Largely to Informal Discussion GOV. COMER SPEAKS TODAY pr. J. H. Mccoy, at This Mornings Session, Will Take as His Subject
 "christ Himself Mis-
 slonary."
GOV. COMER SPEAKS TODAY

A large number of laymen from the various churches of the north Alabama Methodist conference were assembled at the First Methodist church yesterday morning and began a two days session in the interest of the Laymens Mission ary movement. Three sessions will be held today-morning, afternoon and even ing. A feature of the afternoon session will be an address by Governor Conner on the laymen's movement.
 The work of yesterdays sessions was a threshing out of the different methods for upbuilding the movement. and while there were a number of addresses the major part of the meeting was a gen. era1 discussion participated in by every one present. By adjournment yesterday sentiment appeared to be crystallizing on some certain plan.
 The meeting was opened with prayer by the Rev. J. D. Simpson, president of the north Alabama conference, and was called to order by pr. c. s. Tatum of Center, who is lay leader of the move ment. Following the prayer the Rev. James A. Duncan, pastor of the First Methodist church, made an address of welcome, in which he dwelt upon the responsibility resting upon the laymen in the upbuilding of church. In this re- gard he said:
 At the present day it has dawned upon the world that the laymen were really the church. Every preacher could die tomorrow and the church would still exist. But if the laymen were eliminat- ed there would be no church..
 W. B. Stubbs of Nashville, who is secretary Of the 1aymen's movement of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, was the next speaker. His address was in the nature of an explanation of the movement. This is a movement not an organization" said he. "It was started by the inspiration of Gods spirit in men,"
 What Is the Aim and Scope of the Laymens Missionary Movement was the subject of a talk by Dr. ". w. Pin son of Nashville, who is secretary of the general board of missions of the Southern Methodist church. The speaker told of the history of the movement and compared it to great movements of other times, and urged that the laymen be guided by the spirit of God in this great undertaking.
 The Rev. J. D. Simpson followed next on the subject. Why We Should Pay One-Tenth to the Lord" and in eloquent words showed that the devoting of a DOT tion of the laymen's time to the forward ing of this movement came under this construction.
 United States District Attorney Oliver Streit lay leader of the Guntersville dis trict, spoke on "The Leaders Duties" He was followed by Prof. L. M Steven son of Center, N. H. Rowe of Huntsville. H. B. Copeland of Attalla and a number of others
 At this mornings session the Rev. James H. Mccoy will preach on Christ Himself a Missionary"

LIGHTNING AND SHIPS.
Vessels Are Struck Much More Often
 Than Is Supposed.

From Knowledge Magazine.
 In spite of the popular impression to the contrary, ships remote from the land are seldom damaged by lightning. all though some of the most awe-inspirinS displays of atmospheric electricity are frequently witnessed by those on board of them.
 Standing rigging, and even parts of the running gear, are now made of steel wire. and this substitute for the old-fashioned hemp serves the purpose of lightning con- ductor when the ship is not fitted with such an aid to safety. The electric cur rent is conveyed down the wire rigging, and reaches the sea through the vessel s metal hull Damage occurs only if the current be interrupted on its way to earth. In comparatively large propor- ton of instances the foreroyal truck is struck frequently and the mzzen least of the three
 Very serious causualties under this head occurred to warships and merchant ves- sells in the days of wooden hulls and hempen rigging. [" In July, 1902, as 13 sail of the East India Company were trying to round the cape in the vicinity of Algoa Bay, homeward bound, two of them, the Britannia and the Bombay Cas- tie, were struck by lightning The fore mast or eacn was SoOH enNelopeu III flames, and the masts had to be cut away in order to save the ships and their con- bustible cargoes. A heavy gale was blowing, the night was dark, and the oth- CT ships of the fleet, which were hove to at the time. were witnesses of this thrill- ing incident.
 Many vessels are now fitted with light ming conductors of approved types, lest the wire rigging should fail to carry off the electric current. In May, 1896, short ly after a severe thunderstorm, accom- panied by lightning and rain, in degrees South, S7 degrees East, the P. and O. steamship Victoria had a sudden increase of deviation amounting to 6 degrees in both the standard and the wheelhouse compasses. and later it was discovered that the lightning conductor on the fore had fused. The ship must have been struck by lightaing during the storm.

TELEPLASTlC THEORY.
De Rochas Believes Astral Bodies Be
 Nodded at Experimenters Will.

In support of this theory, MT. Garland, in the September Everybodys, says in part:
 T am the more disposed to believe in the teleplastic theory for the reason that I have recently had an opportunity to witness a particularly incredible thing the naturalization of a complete human form beside the psychic-a phenomenon which has a special bearing upon the mat ter of identity which we are discussing The sitting took place in a small private house here in the city. The psychic in the case was a young business man who is careful not to advertise his power. For four years he has been holding secret de- veloping circles to which a few of his friends only are invited. I was present recently and shared in the marvels. The place of the seance was the parlor Of his apartment, and his young wife and little daughter were present. There was in ad- dition an elderly lady, mother-in-law of the psychic, and Polish student whom I will call Jacob.
 .Toward the end of the evening the psychic advanced from the cabinet, and in a dazed way ordered the lamp to be lit. This was done. He then asked that the light be turned low. This also was done. Thereupon, directing his gaze toward the curtain, he called twice tn tone of com mand, Come out"
 q could distinguish every one in the room at the moment. I could see the psychic plainly. I could discern the color of his coat and the expression of his face. He stood at least six feet from the open ing in the curtain. At his second cry, which held a note of entreaty, l saw a form taller than himself, suddenly ap- pear before the curtain, and stand bowing
 in silence. l could perceive neither face, eyes. nor feet, but l could make out the arms under the luminous robe, the shape of the head and the shoulders, and as he
