COLLISION IS THRILLER.
Unusual Entertainment Contracted for
the San Antonio Fair,

No form of amusement or en-
tertainment has yet been devised
quite as thrilling as a collision be
tween two monster S0-ton locomo-
tives capable of speeding over steel
rails at a clip better than a mile a
minute. At all places where these
sensational collision have been
shown thousand crowded outside
of the danger limits to see just
what happens in a railroad disaster.
At Brighton Beach where the
last great collision was put on,
more than $780, 900 people paid
their way into the great Brighton
track to witness this thriller. "
That exceptional interest was man
ifested in this unusual entertain
ment was attested in the fact that
some of the spectators reached the
track FIVE hours before the collision
was advertised. In doing so they
avoided the great rush and were
able to secure splendid points of
vantage from which to view two
great locomotives rushing at each
other in mortal combat. The
entire spectacle lasted less than 80
seconds, and in that brief period
two great mechanical contrivances
were reduced to an Undesirable
mass of twisted and broken iron
welded together in smouldering
heap.
1t was the most realistic piece of
entertainment Brighton Beach has
ever seen.
The sole promoters of these COLI
sions. the Connolly Brothers of
DesMoines, Iowa, have contracted
with the San Antonio International
Fair Association to reproduce the
Brighton Beach collision at the
Fair on Sunday afternoon, Nov.

Now is the time to begin fall
planting. Citizens of Brownsville
should begin early and beautify
their homes by planting shade trees
and ornamental shrubs. The pros

a few months should encourage all
to exert themselves in this direc-
ton. And, when selecting trees,
do not overlook the beautiful native
palms that grow in such abundance
near Brownsville. These trees,
which are so greatly admired every

comparatively small cost.

Twenty five minutes concluded
all the business they had to do.
The second ward seems to
contain the only good fighters.
They first mixed on the way to
ballot for nominees, and after a
motion to reconsider was made,
and in the sqnable that followed
no one knew where they were at.
Men changed their minds on an
average Of once second some
times much oftener. At last
the tangle was someh o "
Strengthened out. Two man
were put up at the same time for
the same Office and voted on.
There were just two factions,
-
and the first vote told which way
the wind blew. j. A. Naeve aud
M. A. Harvey were the first two
PM up, and when the vote was
counted it read: Naeve, 81;
Harvey, is; and Naeve was de.
clared the first nominee for al.
derman. The next vote was
Love 28, against Donovan, who
received %, and Love was
therefore declared 10 be the
second man il line for city dad
ship.
On the members or the school
board. Janda aud Mazonrek re.
ceived 81 and 20, respectively rs
against Patton 10 and Grimes 81.
The former were therefore de.
clared the nominees. Thus
closed the second ward caucus.
In the third ward harmony
prevailed in large chunks, aud
was used for seats while the
voters of the ward deliberated
on the mighty question OF sawho

save the town. Finally, John
Stedronsky and Thos. Base were
chosen for aldermen. w. &. Nc.
Donald and Frank Ii Rochelle
for the school board. Thus far
everything in the first and third
wards was lovely.
