POPE FOR A DAY.
Eso's Successor wm Roign for TwehtyS :,
 Fcur Houra

FOuF Hours.
 When Pope Leo XII. dies his imme- dlate successor will be Cardinal LuiEi Oreglia, Camarlingo of the Roman Catholic Church. He will not be called Pope, but according to the laws in force he will be Acting Pope until the new Pope is elected. The Vatican reg ulations decree that the election of the new Pope cannot take place until after the burial of the late Pope, which takes place ten days after his decease. < ln many instances the election is not completed for weeks or months. so that the CamarIingo may enjoy his papal power for a long time. Leo XIII. held the position of Camarlingo when ne himself was elected to the pontifi- cate, but 1t does not seem probable that his Camarlingo will succeed to the papal throne, It is the Camarlingo Who formally declares the pope dead after tapping his forehead three times with the silver hammer. Hesit is who breaks the seals and Ring of the Fish efman,e and tlIen assumes the dfrec- tfon of the Apostolic see until the new pope is chosen. The eamarlingo pre- sides over the sacred eonclave of the cardinals having the election in hand. and keeps the Key Of the place Of meet ing, so that none can enter or go out save with his consent When the election is concluded he asks the new pontif what name he intends to take. And after he has received the saluta- ton of the assembled cardinals it iE the Cardinal-Camariingo who places on his finger the Ring of the Fisher man" He is, in fact, the actual sue cessor of the pope. even though tenn porariIy, at

 4 great deal o9 interest is aroused in both political and financial circles by the appeal for assistance now being made by Russia in the London money market. For many years to come Rus sia will require large financial re- sources to carry out her vast plans for railway development in China, Persia and Siberia Unless London comes to the help of M. de Witte. the Russian minister of finance. the building of these railways, which bulk So largely in the searemonger' eyes. is likely to be postponed for an indefihite period. It seems odd that Russia should come to London 10 borrow money for the advancement of schemes which are openly designed to thwart the political and commereiaI interests of England and the United States in the far East. -t is. unusual, to say. the least of it. to invite prospective victims to subscribe for the expense of their own interment. The only ground On which the appli- cation; is te be justified is the oosmo- politah character of E modern finance which knows. neither country nor pa- tfiotism. Every shilling subscribed in England or America for the building of Russia's strategic lines in Asia will be used against them The spirit iri which 1hat portion of the Russian govern maent which is hostile to eAnglo-saxon development administers the affairs of the interior is shown in the arrest and 1eKile of thohsands of students. and ih the closing of' nearly all the principal universities and colleges jlS Russia Harper's Weekly.I II

Hundreds OF railroad mon and hundreds OF
other people living along the main line OF the
New York Central and the various branches
over which Jim" Wood ran his engine have
made the above remark. for Jim" and his en-
CINE became celebrities on account OF the bell.
Twenty years or more ago the bell was made.
At the same time a new engine was built. es-

on the road. A feature OF the engine was the

famous. bell. which Is known by It's sweet
sound to every railroad man connected with
When q, few years ago. "Jim's" engine was
taken off the passenger service and replaced by
the frst:class engines OF the present time, Il
was used around the yards at the Central sta
ton doing shifting and pushing work, and not
long ago was eent to Buffalo to do the same
kind OF work there. There was an effort made
by, some OF the engineers to perpetuate the
bell by securing 1t for one Of the high-class en-
Rines, and this was accomplished q few weeks
ago. The bell now rings out It's merry chimes
from engine OPS. which. runs the Limited"
east and the Fast Mail west between Buff
falo and Syracuse.
After serving many years as engineer on the
New York Central. Engineer Wood was super
animated and is now living In retirement In
this city. But like all old railroad men there lie
a fascination about the yards Of q great railroad
system that is irresistible. and Mr.. Wood can
be frequently seen down at the Central station
exchanging greetings and recalling old times
with the railroad men there. About q month
ago a little incident occurred illustrative of the
innate love the engineer has for the great iron
machines that become things OF life under their
skilful manipulations.
Mr.. Wood was standing In the station talking
to some old friends when the merry, silvery
tones OF the dear old bell rang out. The men
instantly stonped talking and listened: then
they simultaneously made a rush for the siding
whore the sound appeared to proceed from.
There, standing on the track was old ITO. the
engine Jim had piloted for so many years, 4
and Ginning with the old ttme-wonted sweet |
hess was the same old bell. In SOM way or
other the old engine had been sent along from
with a load of cars. The sight OF the
old engine and the sound Of the bell brought
tears to "Jim's" eyes.
