NEW USE FOR RIVER
SUCCESS OF FIREWORKS DIS PLAY MAY DEVELOP A PLAN
The Peculiar Fitness of the Topo- graphy Strikes Many as a Fine Place for Future Sport and
 Exhibition

The vast throng of people who wit messed the splendid display of fireworks from the Montgomery County bank of the
 river yesterday evening, together with the ease with which the multitude was man aged, impressed observant citizens with the fact that the Alabama River, it's Montgomery wharf, its -sloping banks on the Elmore County side, and it's sweep
 ing bend which skirts the entire city may be utilized in many ways for the pleas ure and profit of Montgomeriana
 Again today the river will play an lm-
 portant part in the Fall Festival program
 when double-scull and four-oared races will he rowed there by crack crews from two of the big cities of the country.
 Surprise was expressed yesterday py and its banks have not been heretofore
 used. The stream is navigable in all sea sons the banks in this vicinity are high and dry and yet there are no boat clubs
 in Montgomery. A boat excursion Is a rarity and the Fireworks Committee for the first time hit upon the idea of using the peculiar topography of the Montsom- cry side as an amphitheatre.
 The Montgomery bluff breaks oil per- pendicularly from the west side or the car-shed of the Union Railway Station | into a ravine fifty feet below. From the | bottom of this ravine the river bank slopes to the waters edge. The river sweeping around bend of one mile and l the topography being about the same as | that immediately below the railway sta- | ton for the entire distance affords splen- | did opportunity for improving by. artih cial means and making the place highly | desirable as a pleasure resort.
 | The great crowd of visitors who at | tended the fireworks display yesterday | evening admired the beauty of this loca- | ton and several said that they hoped lMontgomery's public spirited people would l better appreciate its desirabinty.

John Due, personal rep resentative of the company.

 No other fireworks manufacturers have produced as many exhibits in the South as the Due Company.
