ONLY THREE DAYS55 TILL STATE FAIR
 T..
The Big Exhibition Begins Next Thursday-AII Is in
 Readiness

Alabama State Fair November 1-1O.
 Next Thursday the Alabama State Fair will be thrown open to the public. It will be the greatest fair ever held in Alabama, and will afford amusement and instruction for every one who comes to it. There will be splendid exhibits of the resources of the State, including minerals, manufactured products, agriculture, horticulture, live stock, textiles, and in fact almost every thing made or grown in the State.
 Several carloads of exhibits were received here yesterday and will be unloaded at the fair grounds today. In addition to the ex- hibits a large number of race horses came in and will be taken to the quarters pro- vided for them at the fair grounds today.
 Mrs John B. Reid, director of the wom- ans department, has appointed Mrs. David H. Brown as assistant. She has also ap- pointed judges for the baby show. These judges are amongst the best known men in Birmingham, and it is unnecessary to state that their decisions will be received with general approval. The judges selected by Mrs Reed are Solicitor Charles ". Ferguson, Assistant Solicitor John Me Queen and Erskine Ramsay, chief engineer of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company.
 Several of the members of the committee will be at the womans building today to receive the exhibits intended for that de- partment.
 All the buildings at the fair grounds have been whitewashed and present very at tractive appearance.

LADENED TROLLEY
 GAR IN COLLISION Marrow Escape of Many Shocked
 Passengers.
THE SCENE OF EXCITEMENT
Car for North Birmingham Collides With Freight Car on Kansas City Line at Ninth Avenue and Twenty
 sixth Street

There was a collision between a trolley car and freight train on the Kansas City line at Twenty-sixth street and Ninth ave- nue about'6 o clock yesterday evening.
 Mrs Teresa Fannie Ross. wife of George Ross of 1516 Eleventh avenue South, was badly shocked and was feared to have re- cedved bodily injuries.
 Two or three small children were some- what hurt, and, perhaps, dozen passen- gers greatly shocked. The passengers mar rowly escaped frightful injuries.
 The trolley car was proceeding from the city to North Birmingham. There seems to be no doubt that the cars were brought to a full stop before reaching the railroad crossing as required by law and the regu- lations of the Street Car Company, and all the railroad companies.
 It appears that the freight cars were at the moment stationary on the right or eastern side of the trolley line, the nearest car being near the line. Presumably the switching of cars was in progress, as is almost constantly the case.
 It further appears that the conductor of the trolley car, and probably the motor- man at the same time, saw what was IdkGu lO DS d ldlnp Sl6lldl LlOlh 1AAS AAS4S4aS cars that the railroad track was clear, and the trolley car conductor signaled to the motorman to proceed, which he did. Just as the trolley car got on to the crossing the freight cars were moved suddenly backward, the rear one striking the trolley car and showing it forward and to the left side about ten or fifteen feet apparently.
 Many of the passengers were thrown from their seats, and some of them entirely out of the trolley car There was the widest excitement, and the screaming of women and children was alarming. A large crowd of people from that vicinity was attracted to the scene of the wreck.
 The next car due from North Birmingham after the accident was held about quar- ter of an hour at Henderson station, the conductor waiting for the car which was wrecked to pass him and being unaware of the accident. He then proceeded. When his car reached the wreck, perhaps half hour after the accident, there were maybe two hundred persons at the place, and there was still a good deal of excitement. The track being badly damaged, passengers were transferred and traffic proceeded.
 pr. Chapman, the street car company's surgeon, was early in attendance, but there seemed to be nothing for him to do. He offered his services to Mrs. Ross, who seemed to be very i'll and nervous, but MT. Ross said she preferred to wait till she reached home, and if necessary he would summon her own physician. Dr. Chapman was very anxious that Mrs. Ross be made comfortable. MT. Ross, who is the head cutter in Louis Saks tailoring department, said that he and Mrs. Ross were thrown in opposite directions. He was afraid that Mrs. Ross was hurt about the hips, as she complained of pains in that region of the body. Mrs. Ross appeared to be delicate

Bryan finished din- ner until o'clock tonight, when he left the Hoffman House, there was a steady stream of callers. MT. and Mrs. Bryan were both kept busy shaking hands. Among the callers were Congressman William M. Sul- ger, Frank Campbell, James K. Mcclure, John A. Mason, eX-Goyernor William J. Stone and Congressman James D. Richard son. At clock Mir Bryan and party left the hotel for the Grand Central depot, where they took the train for Albany A squad of twenty-two policemen, two roundsmen and a sergeant kept the crowd back and a platoon of twenty mounted po- ucemen escorted MT. Bryan to the depot Notwithstanding the fact that his depart ure was not announced in any of the morn ing papers, the people appeared to find it cut some way, and fully three thousand were gathered at the hotel waiting his ap- pearance. As soon as he emerged with Mrs. Bryan a great shout went up. On the way up Broadway to the depot crowds of people lined the street on either side and shout after shout rent the air At the Grand Central station Mir.

Mckinley Triumphant.

AS all our readers know, William
Mckinley has been reelected Presi-
dent. His majority is greater than
his phenomenal majority of four
pears ago.
There is no installing the mean

emphatic The people voted for A
wears more of the pull dinner pail,
rather than try new experiments.
The HERALD believes that it was
prosperity that won the phenomin-
al victory for Mr. Mckinley. One
could hardly imagine a greater area
of prosperity that that which is en-
ioyed by the United States today
1t would almost cause one to lose
faith in popular institutions had
the verdict been to exchange present
conditions for intried theories and
experiments.
The people were contented and
happy. They were well-to-do.
They exhibited their great, good
sense by voting for Mckinley, con-
tentment, prosperity and happiness.
The question of expansion aided
the Republican candidates, espec-
tally on the Pacific coast, and the
national pride was touched when il
was proposed to furl the flag in the
Philippines and turn the helpless
people of the islands over tc

The Fusion party has carried
Kootenai County, but by what
majorities we are unable to state,
as the returns were not all in when
our last abvices were received from
the county seat. 1t is believed.
however, that the Fusion majority
has been materially reduced. In
the Kootenai Valley the Republic
cans have made gains in every
precinct. In Boomers Ferry this
is particularly noticeable. Four
years ago there were only II votes
here for Mckinley. Two years ago
the vote for congressman was 46 to
146 in favor of Fusion. This year
it stands 100 for M cKinley to 142
for Bryan. Two years hence Bon
ners Ferry will be a Republican
precinct.

The Spokesman Review is the
one tally newspaper read in North
Idaho. Every body reads the Spo-
kesman-Review because it has an
excellent news service. The Spo-
kesman-Review favored the Fusion
lists in Idaho. 1t did not openly
advocate their cause, but in the
many other ways that great news.
paper can aid and abet a politica
party, the Spokesman Review was
all that the Fusionists of North
Idaho could ask for. Republicans
could scarcely get an abbreviated
report of their meetings where Fus-
isonists could get fine reports and
all the desired trimmings The
Review is entitled to large share
of credit from the Fusionists for
the result in North Idaho.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-11-09

THAT the path of Fusion leads
but to the political grave is again
illustrated in Idaho. Four years
agO the combined opposition to
Republication was over 10000 in
the majority. Two years ago it
was 1000, and this year, only
1900. Two years from now the
Republicans will have four or five
thousand majority. This is the
natural result of fusion-of dicker-
mug and trading, with It's attendant
factional fights. abandonment OF
principle for Office, and unfit can
didates, Fusion's final dissolution
will take place in two years.

ONE good result of the election is
the retirement of Mr.. Pittigrew; the
especial champion of Aguinaldo.
South Dakota is to be congratulate
ed. Pettigrew is out now calling
for the formation of a new party.
Pettigrew is right for once--it was
a mistake for the democrats to try
to swallow up the populists. This
country needs third party as
haven for the discontented. the
cranks, the flag furlers and the
calamity howlers. Mr.. Pettigrew
has posed as a silver republican,
but says the new party will most
likely be called Social Labor or the
New Democracy, to which he will
invite all silver republicans, and
populists.

THE MINISTERIAL DEAD-LINE.

There comes time when a man can
neither stay in the ministry nor get
out of it. He cannot say. in it, be-
cause, at the age of forty-five or fifty
he has reached the ministerial dead
line. Churches prefer youthful preach
ers. They like the young face, the
erect figure, the spirited delivery, and
the vivacious thought of a hoy An
other paradox! They ought to pre-
fer the learning, the insight, the
r.pened character, and the chastened
spirituality of man past middle life
for only he can best minister to their
real needs. Yet we are confronted
with Ian Maclaren's pathetic query
Shall the old minister be shot?"
And whatever answer we make to
that query, it remains mournfully true
that the old minister is either re-
moved by methods more or less heart
less or deceived into imagining that
another parish viii afford him an op-
portuniy. for continued usefulness
Let him resign, and seek that other
parish, and he learns his mistake. A
mere STRIPPING succeeds to his pulpit,
while he himself remains unemployed.
But it must not be imagined that
this unemployed clergyman has left
the ministry. The ministry cannot be
left. 1t sticks to a man, whether he
will or not He is regarded as a mon
arch who has ANONYMOUSLY addicted

ally repudiated his military title He
cannot become a layman. He cannot
enter any other calling save that to
which he has given his life, because in
other directions Some time we shall
evolve a system Of eleemosynary sup
spiritual advisers.
What name, then, shall we give to
the ministerial calling? | insist that
it Is a mere butterfly existence. A man
has not served his apprenticeship in it
until he has reached thirty or thirty
five, and his clerical life is snuffed out
at forty-fve or fifty This is well
known. Would it not be natural to
suppose that so disheartening a condi-
ton would serve as a very effective
deterrent for youthful aspirants to
ward holy orders Yet at the very
time when the dead-line is drawn with
crueest stringency, behold our theo-
logical seminaries thronged with am
bilious students, What can possibly
tempt them to hazard their all in so
perlous venture as the ministerial
career?-"The Paradoxical Profess
