 Two persons known to be injured are Superintendent Rodgers, partly sufrocated while endeavoring to rescue entombed miners, and William Gill, partly suffo- cated while assisting Superintendent Rodgers. They were rescued, but 1t is feared that six more were in the shaft and perished. Thirty-nine mules were at the bottom of the shaft, and these have undoubtedly been burned to death.

THE TENANT RACE
 BEGINS THURSDAY
The Season Opens With Selmas
 in Birmingham
PLAYERS IN GOOD SHAPE
Selma RoOters Are Claiming First se- ries--Cincinnati Leads National League and Baltimore the
 American.

The championship season Of the South ern Baseball Association opens in this city next Thursday afternoon with d game between the Birmingham and Selma teams. This will be the first game of pro- fessional ball played in Birmingham since Hallers aggregation disbanded on the ith of July, 1898, and doubtless the lovers of the national game will be out in full force.
 It is the verdict of those who saw the local team in the exhibitions it played last week that 1t will be able to hold its own against any other team in the league. Every man under contract with Manager Mills has shown thorough familiarity with the ball game in the few practice and exhibition games in which they have participated at the Seventh Street Park, and the local enthusiasts feel sure of majority ot the games they play result ing in victories for them.
 The Selma team has had much more training this season than the locals, and the people of Selma are relying upon this fact to give them the victory in the game next Thursday.
 It is said of the Selma rooters that they confident of taking Birmingham's scalp in the opening series that liberal wagers are being offered.
 While the locals have had less than two weeks practice. still they are in good condition, and will not be a picnic for any team. Sam Mills exercised splendid judgment, in the opinion of those who have seen his men, in selecting the play CTS for his team. Every one is an ath- lete as well as a ball player.
 Sam LaRoeque, who will cover the first bag and captain the team, has had sew eral years experience on the diamond and knows the game thoroughly. He Is the heaviest man on the team, weighing near ly 200 pounds but this amount of avor- dupois does not hamper him playing his position.
 Manager Mills has arranged a parade for the opening day, in which the mem bers of both teams will ride. He has also engaged band for that occasion, which will play a number of pieces at the park after the procession arrives there.
 Charlie Frank has released Art Twine- ham, catcher, and signed George kalkoff to take his place on the Memphis team.
 Skopec one of Little Rocks best pitch CTS, has jumped his contract and gone to the Chicago American League team.
 George Blackburn has signed to pitch for Little Rock. .-

ENTOMBED MINERS
 REACHED BY PARTY
Two Are Rescued From
 Shaft Alive
ONE OF THE FIVE WAS DEAD
Two Others Are Barely Allve-One Had Dead Man Underneath Him-May Lose His
 Mind.

St Louis. April 2s.-A special to the Republic from Aurora. Mo-, says:
 Life. light and air broke in on the five entombed miners at a m. Two were rescued alive. one was found dead, and the other two are supposed to be life less.
 Faint taps on the iron rails announced that two others were still alive. They are William Shane ond George Feaster.
 "A large stone boulder had Feaster pin toned by the foot in which position he remained for a day. He was so firmly wedged that 1t seemed as if a supporting timber would have to be removed to let him out. This would have precipitated the roof on all, and could not be considered. Enough of the timber was clipped off, however, to save him.
 "Feaster was nearly famished when reached by the workers, but was revived by whiskey and milk given to him in small quantity. The work of saving him was tedious and risky, as the drift was just large enough for one man to work in lying on his side. and clawing the dirt back to another, and then another in chain until the whole string had been passed.
 When taken out 1t was discovered that he had crushed leg and foot, but will probably recover.
 "At .0:50 p. m. the rescuers were near William Shane, who was pinoned by the foot with dead man underneath him.
 He was scarcely able to talk. His arm is broken and 1t is feared that he may lose his mind. He was removed at Il o'clock after an Imprisonment of sixty hours and fifty minutes. The other two are probably dead. a&
 Five thousand persons were about the shaft all day and night.

MUSIC FESTIVAL
 BEGINS TOMORROW
Guckenberger Has His Great
 Chorus Well in Hand
THOMAS AND ORCHESTRA
Some interesting Points Touching the FIrst Nights Proaramme-Steady Demand for Seats and the Au-
 ditorium Will be Crowded.

The music festival which will take place at the Auditorium tomorrow night and Wednesday night will easily surpass in brilliant variety and artistic performances all former festivals. and 1t Is certain to be great financial success, for never has any musical enterprise in this part of the country created the stir that it Is now making. The demand for reserved seats has been steady ever since the sheet was opened at Parker's drug store April 15. Never was there such a large advance sale of tickets for any entertainment in this city But the Auditorium is a spacious building, having an immense seating capacity, and few good seats can yet be secured. Those who fail to get seats before tonight, however, will probably have to content themselves with gallery sittings. The gallery, by the way, is a remarkably good place to hear the music. and the price is only 50 cents.
 Theodore Thomas with his orchestra will reach Birmingham tomorrow morn- ins at g o'clock. Mrs. Genevieve Clark Wilson. the festival soprano. and George Hamlin. the festival tenor, arrived in Birmingham yesterday afternoon and are registered at the Metropolitan They will attend the chorus rehearsal at the Audi torium tonight. The other seloists will come Tuesday. and the full rehearsal for chorus. soloists and orchestra will take place at the Auditorium Tuesday at noon.
 MT. Guckenberger has his great chorus thoroughly in hand. He said last night IA heard in Birmingham.
 The first portion of Tuesday nights pro- gramme is made up of Part II of Men delssohn's Elijah" This Is not only a masterful oratorio but 1t is the most pop ular of all of Mendelssohn's works. Part II abounds in gems. and there Is not a single dry number in 1t.
 The second portion of the programme consists of orchestral music and two violin solos, the closing number being Liszt's symphonic poem, Les Preludes," inspired by Lamartine's prose poem, be- ginning: What Is our life but series of preludes to that unknown hymn. the first solemn note of which Is struck by death?''
 MT Guckenberger will direct the Eli jan music, and MT. Thomas will direct the orchestral numbers. The orchestra has large part in Elijah" The orches- tration is wonderfully full and brilliant.
 Many of the pastors yesterday called the attention of their congregations to fthe festtHaL Among those who spoke strong words for MT. Guckenberger and good music were Dr.. McFerrin and Father O'Reilly.
