EX-SECRETARY THOMPSON
Makes Pop Visit to Birmingham His Views on Commercial and Industrial Condi-
 tions-E Enthusiastic as Ever.

MT. N F. Thompson, secretary of the Johnstown Pa, board of trade, former ly secretary of the Birmingham Conner cial club and the Alabama Commercial association, is spending a few days with his family inethis city
 This is Mr. Thompson's first visit to Birmingham since his acceptance of the Johnstown engagement slast February lie was seen by representative of the State Herald at his residence on Eighth avenue last evening and asked for his views on the business and industrial out LOOK. MT. Thompson is quite as much of an enthusiast over Birmingham as he ever was, and all of our people will re- call how he was ever ready with tongue or pen to extol this city, with which he has been so long and intimately identi- fed He said:
 "There is genuine business and in dustrial revival close at hand; indeed, I may say that it is here, for there has been very general starting up of idle plants throughout the north and east. This is not due to fictitious or political causes, but arises from generally better condi- tions. When it is known that for the past eight months of the present year trade balances are in our favor to the extent of over $10000 900, while last year at this time they were against us very heavily, it will be seen that the recent
  ing more than legitimate payments for American products, and must bring bet ter times in the near future."
 Regarding Birmingham MT. Thompson said:
 "I have given very close study to the northern iron situation, and nothing that I have learned in any way changes my former convictions that Birmingham should control the iron markets of the world"
 AS to his future he expressed much satisfaction over his reception and the cooperation given his work in Johns- town, and said so long as this continues he must remain with them, but will not move his family until next spring on ac- count of the great difference in the eli mate. Already they had had ice, he said, and all predictions were for an early and severe winter Personally he liked that climate, and did not experience anything like the inconvenlences he anticipated.
 Ills work has been more successful than he expected, and after the election he said he could locate several new indus tries in Johnstown in addition to those already placed there this year. He will remain in Birmingham about a week, and expects to see all his old friends before returning.

sNAToHED FROM JAWS OF DEATH.
Locomotive Fireman's Rescue of Q Woman
 From a Horrible Fate,

New York, Sept. 30.-Charles Wilkins, who is a fireman on the Northern rail road of New Jersey, this morning leaped from his flying engine, seized woman who stood paralyzed with fear in the path of a train coming at full speed in the op- posite direction carried her.to safety and swung aboard the last car of his own train as 1t swept on toward Jersey City. Wilkins engine came round curve just west of a tunnels mouth at a rate of about twenty miles an hour. As soon as the engine was on the straight track Will kins, glancing ahead saw two things which startled him. There was woman on the trains track ahead of his own engine. As Wilkins was borne down upon her another passenger train shot out of the tunnel behind her, at the rate of thirty miles an hour. The roar of both trains was in her ears, but she saw only one, that which she was looking at and that one would not harm her. Wilkins was on the step of the tender in a mo- ment more, his hands grasping the side irons and one leg swung free, measuring with his eye the distance between her and the Erie express. She never moved a muscle after she realied that there was a train behind her, but stood between the rails motionless with terror, white faced waiting to be cut to pieces.
 When the engine was about 30 feet from her Wilkins jumped. The-other train was within 60 yards of her. The fireman's feet tore up the earth as he was driven along and braced himself to keep from falling. He did not fall. He leaped upon the other track and dashed straight toward the woman and the approaching train. A slip meant death. She screamed when he seized her, as if his touch had given her voice. She was no light weight but Wilkins is giant. He raised her in his arms and leaped to the strip of sand beside the track. Her feet had scarcely cleared the rails when the ex- press thundered by, the wind it raised covering the woman and her rescuer with dust.

THE CARNIVAL SOCIETY
Making Great Strides Toward Next Years Mardi Gras CarnVal-Some Fine
 Floats Promised.

The Birmingham Carnival society is making rapid strides toward their second annual parade, which event takes place on Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday of next year. While not parading their works before the public, they are laboring inde- fatigably, and seem determined to vie with the societies in Mobile and New Or leans in presenting pageant which will rebound to their credit and prove an hon. or to Alabama's Magic City.
 The society has a number of artists busily engaged in drawing plans for beau tiful floats, which will comprise allegori- cal events as well as those of modern times. These artists have already turned out a number of beautiful designs, which have been transmitted to President Emil Lesser for inspection by the society. These sketches were shown State Her aid reporter, and in his judgment they will be beautiful to look upon and well worth a long distance travel 10 see when presented to the public gaze.
 The reporter was informed that a sub- urban society Is raising a fund of $2O0O to be expended in floats for the grand pa rade The society has already decided prepared for decora ton. As 1t requires considerable time to get the floats in read mess, this particular society has taken time by the forelock, and is having the work pushed as rapidly as possible.
 A representative of manufacturing company has also notified the committee through President Lesser that he has been authorized to expend $500 for one float to be used in the parade. This is a spirit of enterprise well worthy of emu lation by others here.
 The second parade of the Birmingham Carnival society will undoubtedly far eX- eel that of the inaugural, and as these parades are intended to place Birming- ham before the public away from here, will undoubtedly prove of great benefit fo tha citV
