Gadsden, october 12--(Sp SpeciaD-Pro- motefs of the interurban from Gadsden to Center are considering a new route, which will go to Rock Run, thus se- curing much added tonnage from the furnace there.

 EXPOSITION OPENS.
Expect Montgomery Fair to Be Better Than
 Ever Before

Montgomery, October 12.-(special ) rnally opened at noon today with appra- priate addresses by the governor, Mayor w A Gunter. Jr., and F. G. Salter. president of the exposition. Officials of the exposition were highly pleased at the attendance on the opening day, and prospects are bright, they believe, for the most successful fair in the history of this section.
 All the various departments of the ex- position had been completed by the time the gates were thrown open to the pub lie, and the exhibits were pronounced to be the best and most attractive ever seen at vandiver park.
 The 1914 exposition is spacious in every respect, the live stock exhibition, the ma chinery display, women's work, educa- tional features and all other departments being of much higher order of excel lorce than over before seen in Montgom- cry.
 The exposition is also expected to set a new mark in point of attendance The crowd on the opening day was consider ably larger than had been expected, and, with prospects of fair weather during the week. the exposition officials are sanguine of q record breaking attendance every day curing the week.
 The free amusement features are de- clared to be better this year than in the past, while the midway attractions are exceptionally good. Horse, automobile and motorcycle races are expected to attract large crowds daily. and all arr arrangements have been made for an in- teresting programme of races for each day during the week

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric

Representations. as a rule. have about the same relation to the original char acter as a cheap chromo has to an old master. but this cannot be said of the impersonations presented last night at the Lyric by William J. Dooley. the noted boy comedian. and his juvenile associates. who appear in the headliner The Lawn Party" a musical comedy in review form. When one stops to consider the noted artists portrayed by this clever and versatile company of youngsters, everyone giving an excel lent impersonation of a great actor, .t makes their performance more re- marSable. Such stars as Robert Man tell, Alice Lloyd. David Warfield Fay Iempleton, George M. Cohan Laurette Taylor, Montgomery and Stone, Bessie Mccoy. Chauneey Ocott and Lillian Russell were among those shown, That of Mantell was cleverly burlesqued by James Dougherty the other characters were straight" one of the cleverest was that of David Warfield by Harry Anger It is just possible that some of the audience had never heard of War field or "The Music Master" judging by their reception of the youngsters interpretation of sweetly pathetic lines of the old music master. They were rendered in 8 splendid manner and brought hearty round of applause from those familiar with the famous actor and play. Billy Dooley Is the limit and then some Sheriff Beas- ley" his comedy Is of the spontaneous variety, while as an exponent of physical culture he Is marvel. The act is ex- ceptionally fine.
 Owing to the sudden illness of Miss Dolly Connolly, one of the feature acts of this weeks bill. Miss Florence Kelly of the Newspaper club, appeared yes- terday afternoon and night, singing three songs in her usually charming manner. Miss Kelly was warmly ap- plauded and at each performance had to respond to an encore.
 Last night at 10 o'clock Miss Winona Winters. a noted star. we'll known in Birmingham and northern Alabama where she has relatives. arrived in the city and will appear this afternoon and the remainder of the week. She is a charming comedienne, something ort tie order of Ethel Green, and Is a big hit everywhere she appears.
 Tho later dances have been termed novel; to say the least. but they are gay cavalier so years young and a blushing debutante of 70 summers Colonel Diamond and Mile. Virginia dance with sprightliness equal to that of couples quarter their age. They made hit.
 Ia France and Bruce present an "ar rument' that is highly diverting and pleased the audience. Lawrence and Edwards in Who's Who" were ac- oertahle. The act of the Pedersen Brothers, Roman ring gymnasts, is the best in their line that has been seen here this season, some entirely new features being introduced The opening number. Merles Cockatoos an animal act that will please the children, was good. Pathe's Weekly excellent war scenes close the show. c. H. M.
