Conditions Were Ideal.


 The clouds rolled away Sunday night phere just cool enough to lend life and zest to visit to the State Fair. When the gates opened at a. m. with the blowing of every whistle in the B1r- mingham district, the fair in every de- partment was practically ready, and by nightfall everything was greased and eager for high speed
 At both afternoon and night perform aAces the spectators were enabled to wit ness the thrilling dive of Miss Mamie Francis, which rivals the famous Shriver dive of last year. and is not only thriller but especially artistic. The beautiful Arabian horses run up the incline unas- sisted, step boldly out on the platform 60 feet above the ground, look calmly around them at the grandstand surveying the crowd, crouch back and leap bravely into the air. The first pony goes alone, and Miss Francis, astride the second, trusts her life to animal instinct remaining on his back until he leaps from the tank of water and steps out on the ground

Forty beauu- full women, most of them young college students handle the most inspiring themes with artistic interpretations and unusual skill. They were dressed neatly in white shirtwaists and skirts divided with gold lace and braid.
 Last night a full programme was pulled off in front of the grandstand. Miss Fan cis' act was received with loud applause, and the Bickett family on the trapeze was fine At the close magnificent display of fireworks turned night into the day of the land that Cook found. and the people gasped in wonder at the rockets that shot in every direction, the dazzling showers of stars of every color, the pyramids. the roses, the fountains and the thousand varigated colors that lighted the field. When the gates closed last night very little remained to be done. The main ex-

Takes Train Over Torrent

y NE hundred lives hung in the balance for the frac-
tion of q second while Engineer W. A. Baldwin
of the Santa Fes San Bernardino local hesitated
as to whether he should follow his nreman's ex-
ample and jump. or stick by HIS engine and pilot 1t over
the fast settling bridge at Avenue Thirty-nve and the Ar
royo 6eco. In southern California.
The heavy rains sweled the stream In the arroyo
from a rivulet until 1t was a raging torrent. higher than
since the flood Of 1889. The water cut under the con-
crete piling of thet Santa FEES new steel bridge and It be-
gan to sag in the middle. Then came the train of nve
cars from San Bernardino slipping down grade from Pas
adena.
Several hundred people living in the vicinity were out
watching the stream eat away its bank and when they
saw the approaching train they made every attempt TO
warn 1t in time. Umbrellas and handkerchiefs were
waved, hats thrown in the air. while men and women
screamed in desperation, hoping that the engineer would
hear or see in time to stop.
w. A Baldwin was at the throttle and he both saw
and heard, but to stop was beyond human power, for the
rails were wet and slippery. He did his best, but failed.
and when his fireman. Fred Walker. saw that the train
was going onto the sagging bridge he jumped.
Baldwin had been in tight places before. and as he
besitated-hands or the reverse lever aud airbrake-he
decided what to do
IL was the deed of a master hand. for had the train
hit the bridge at high speed or Jared as it went across,
down the cars and their passengers would have gone into
the roaring waters.
AS soon az the train stopped hundreds Of people. who
had made so great an effort TO warn Baldwin, crowded
around to congratulate him on mis- nerve and remarkable

Montgomery, September 20-(Spe- cial)-With promise of the best team the city has ever had the Montgomery ball franchise in the Southern league today went to the control of Richard Tillis, head of the local traction com pany who has now more than three quarters of the stock. President R. J. Chambers and all but two of the old directors retired, E. B. Joseph being selected president with Messrs. Tillis, Joseph, w. A. Bellingraft, s. J. Mohr and k. H. Jones directors, Jones and Bellingraft being the holdovers.
 MT. Joseph at once appointed Man ager Greminger to control the team for next year and instructed him to begin selecting men. Several fast ones from lower class leagues have been drafted, but their names were not made public The books show losses for the year. all of which are made good and the club starts off clear of all obligations next year.
 Though in third place with many league records, not a- single man on the local team has been drafted, so that the entire bunch save those who will retire from baseball will be available next year.
