BEssEMER IS GROWING.

From the Bessemer Herald-Journal.
 If every store house and dwelling that has been built in Bessemer during the last two years were ali put in one group on some railroad where there is now no fifty at all the daily papers would make a big fuss over the new town. There has been over twenty store houses and over two hundred residences built in Besse- rner since January 1, 1900. This would make quite nice little town if it was all put in one place.

LONG TAKING HIS TIME.
Lemly Explains Dewey's Position in
the Case

Washington, Dec. 14.-The secretary
of the navy has before him for review
the report of the court of inquiry in
the Schley case. He is naturally TAX
ing time to do this carefully that i'm
mediate action is not expected. Mean
while the court is technically in session
and will remain so until dissolved by
order of Secretary Long, who convened
it. The practice in such cases is laid
down specifically in naval regulation
No. $780, respecting courts of inquiry.
The question has been raised since the
appearance of two reports in print how
far Admiral Dewey, the president of
the court subscribed to the opinion ex
pressed in the first report and in the
findings by appending his signature,
that signature being required of him
apparently by the regulation above al
luded to. regardless of his individual
opinion. In response to inquiry on this
point the judge advocate general of the
navy says:
According to naval practice, Admiral
Dewey by affixing his signatu re to the
report of the court of inquiry in the
case of Rear Admiral Schley expresses
full concurrence in all the findir - of
fact and in all the opinions reached by
the court except those with respect to
which he has in terms signified dissent
in his minority opinion

SIX DAY CYCLE RACE
To End Tonight at 10 O'clock With
the Riders Very Close.

New York, Dec. 14.-Nine tired teams,
five of them American riders, wheeled
about the oval in Madison Square Gar

race is to end at 10 o'clock tonight.
Five Of the teams are tied for first hon

be known until the last lap is finished.
The final preparations have been COM
pleted. The training quarters have been
removed to the track and the riders will
go without sleep today. The finish IN

of the foreigners fighting the American
contingent for the lead, it is a contest

from the north and are as equally con-

into serene coves, it is all sport, and
the springing muscles seem to need
it. It is bound to happen that some
mishap will occur. Thus it is that
when we have sprains in abundance ;
light sprains, sprnins that cripple,
sprains that give great pain, sprains
that rob us OF sleep, but sportsmen of
all kinds have come to know that
there is nothing better than the old
reliable St. Jucobs Oil. Have it with
you for use; you may rely on it's cure
Of the worst sprain and restoration to
the comforts OF life.
