kotas as he was passing out of Elm park

kind of time every one enjoyed at the
postponed program Of the Independence

journeyed to the park from the early aft
ernoon until the last roman candle burned
brilliantly and it's vari-colored stars faded
and vanished in the darkness.
Until the shades had gathered pro-
gram of sports, contributed mainly to the
merriment Of the Yankees and their
guests. Races for all classes and condi-
lions, ages and sexes were witnessed by a
good crowd Of onlookers, but the women s

feature Of the day, and no doubt quite
worthy of record in Winnipeg's athletic
annals.

LA CROSSE. VA. June ae.-Ten Sea-
board Air Line freight cars and the bridge
across MeherrIn River. near here. were
wrecked this morning. and tho escape OF
the members of the crew was miraculous.
The engine OF the southb bouud freight
train passed safely across tho bridge,
although the engineer states that he felt
the bridge give as soon as his engine
struck it. Hardly had the engine reached
safety on the other side when the abut-
ment and two spans OF the iron bridge
went down with crash. carrying ten
cars of tho freight train. The caboose
followed. but the freight cars had SO
filed the cavity under the bridge that
there was no longer far to drop. and
the conductor and fagman who were
aboard escaped injury.
The train was in charge Of Conductor
Weldon Burchitt.
The wreck Is bad one. The pillars
and abutment Of the bridge are gone, as
we'll as two spans, and ten cars are de-
molished and their contents scattered all
around.
A wrecking and bridge force was at
once dispatched to the scene and are rush
ing the repair work. Meanwhile the Sea-
board trains are being operated over the
Atlantic Coast Line tracks.
Meherrin River is high, and It Is sup
posed that this caused the weakening Of
the bridge and It's collapse.
