Mrs. Gasdners Vemetsan Palace
 Hay Be SeAeme 70 Doags Duty

bella Stuart Gardner Museum in the Fen way'
 Mrs. Gardner's purpose in cooperating her palace is not definitely known, but 1t is presumed that she took this step to secure the entry through the custom house of works of art and decorations free of duty under the plea that 4ney are to be used for educational purpen nes, as one of the purposes of the corporation is stated to be "art education, especial ly for the exhibition of works of art" However, several thousand dollars worth of pictures and decorations have already been imported for the palace on which full duty was paid by Mrs. Gardner.  and the faithful and courageous sheriffs of the State. From the moment he en- tered upon the duties of his high office Governor Jelks showed plainly his deter- down mob law all over the State, and the sheriffs of the State were encouraged to do their whole duty, knowing that the Governor and the whole power of the State were behind them.
 It will be a striking refutation of the false ideas that prevail about the South in other parts of the country when it is seen that the colored race is better pro- tected in life and liberty under the new constitution in Alabama than it was un- der the old. Many North hern men believe, or affect to believe that the elimination of the ignorant colored vote means the beginning of an attempt to deprive the negro of civil rights. This is an errone- ous belief and its erroneous character will become plainer with every month that passes by. The white men of Ala bama, being freed from the incubus of ignorant negro suffrage. feel more kindly towards the colored race in the state than they have felt since the war. and are de- termined that the law shall protect a black man just the same as it does a white man.

Cars and Car BuiIdjnu.

The car-building shops created a new record last year by turning out 142,514 cars of all kinds. This is an output that was never equalled in a single year. The number is 1S,S08 more than the previous year furnished.
 The output in detail was as follows: 130,389 freight cars; 20s9 passenger cars, and 508 street cars, for use in this country. For export. 1859 freight. 85 passenger, and 507 street cars were built last year. Of the freight cars built, 27,843 were either all steel, or had steel underframes. The popularity of the steel freight car is increasing, and very soon they will doubtless out number on new work the old sort. In 1900 there were turned out 18,604 steel cars; in 1901. the number had in- creased to 27.S43. The present year may add 10000 to the total.
 The chief increase of the year was in freight cars, the gain for home use standing in round numbers at nearly 2O,O0O cars, and yet there was and is car famine in all parts of the coun- try. All car works are crowded with orders, and no one anticipates much relief this year. The full capacity of the countrys car works probably does not exceed 175,O00 cars of all sorts a year, and this number will not afford the relief that the business of the coun- try demands. In the seven lean years that preceded the present period of prosperity rolling stock was permitted to stand still--in some cases, to de- crease. and when prosperity came the shortage began to be felt. and each year shows how shortsighted any rail- road is that does not make additions each year to it's power and rolling stock, for this country is growing country, and it will never be stand still country.

Russia's Gigantic Railroad.

The Suez canal has future rival in the Nicaragua canal, and a present rival in the Siberian Railway which will soon be opened for traffic from end to end. As soon as the Manchurian branch is completed St. Petersburg and Pekin will be linked together. The other cities of Europe will share of course in this great work, and no doubt very important changes in the worlds commerce will follow.
 In the course of ten years Russia has expended on this great road $172,- s25,00o, and the total cost will exceed $250, 100000. The distance from St. Petersburg to viadivostock is 6667 miles, to which must be added 1919 miles more in order to reach Pekin from Harbui-in all 76S6 miles, and yet the flrst-class fare Is to be but SIPS, the second-class $s7. and the third-class s46.
 The light rails of the construction period are to be replaced at once with heavy rails, and the entire road bed and rolling stock are to be brought up to the highest European standard. At present Lake Baikal is crossed by steamers or sleighs, but the road around the lake will be completed before the end of next year.
 Asia will soon be we'll equipped with railroads, for the Germans are build ing line from Constantinople to the Persian Gulf, the Chinese will soon have an east-and-west line touching the western bounds of the. empire, where it-will meet Russian lines, and Russia is connecting her Caspian ter ritory with tho Siberian Railroad. The world grows smaller year by, and after a while South America and Siberia will be as accessible to the globe trotter or the commercial agent as an American State is today.

Pesslmists Shelved.

Two years ago we came across many pessimsts, who were quite positive that prosperity would come to an end in 1901, but these gloomy creatures have been compelled to take back seat" said a corporation man yesterday
 Not only was 1901 a year of marked prosperity, but 1902 will be far letter year, and there is every reason to predict that 1903 will find business in good shape
 T am not an extreme optimist by any means. know the pendulum of prosperity will swing back some day, but that will not be within the next two years. And l believe that In the future our periods of depression will be of much shorter duration than they were in the past. This is the feeling among f1nanciers and man. ufacturers throughout the country"

RING OUT, WILD BELLS.

By Alfred Tennyson.
 Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
 The flying clouds. the frosty light;
 The year is dying in the night; Ring out wild bells. and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new,
 Ring, happy bells. across the snow:
 The year Is going, let him go; Ring out the false. ring in the true. Ring out the grief that saps the mind
 For those that here we see no more;
 Ring out the feud of rich and poor, Ring in redress to all manA.nd. Ring out a slowly dying cause
 And ancient forms of party strife;
 Ring in the nobler modes of life. Kith sweetest manners, purer laws. Ring out the want. care the sin,
 The faithless coldness of the times:
 Ring out. ring out my mournful rhymes But ring the fuller minstrel in. Ring out false pride in place and blood,
 The civic islander and the spite;
 Ring in the love the truth and right, Ring in the common love of good. Ring out old shapes of foul disease.
 Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
 Ring out the thousand wars of old, Ring in the thousand years of peace. Ring in the valiant man and free.
 The larger heart. the kiniiier hand; Ring out the darkness of the land Ring in the Christ that is to bA

as token that they wished him suc- cess.
 The earl immediately counted out 5000 upon the table and began his play by rislsing one louis 0D. the lowest limit ai- lowed. As the play proceeded he gradu- ally raised his bets until finally he placed nothing smaller than a 5oo-franc note. In the first two hours Lord Rosslyn had several bad periods. but he was still a winner, and after that time his luck was steady. He was getting along swimming ly when, two and one-half hours having elapsed, he was prIiad away from the table by the three men representing the syndicate. This was done under agree ment never to let him play too long for fear that he would get nervous and go to pieces.
 The party withdrew to corner. where Lord Rosslyn emptied his pockets into the hat of the accountant who proceeded to count the money under the watchful eyes of the members of the syndicate. The representatives of the earl afterward l said that the earnings for the first sit- ting had been s2,0 600 francs ($64oo). The noble gambler played again from until 10 at night and won 4oo0 francs ($sco).
 Most of the Americans, men and women, at the table followed the game as played by Lord Rosslyn, duplicating his plays in every move, and while they were un- able to fathom the mysterious intricacies of his calculations, their faith In him was rewarded by winnings of more than 5000 for the American colony.
 Lord Rosslyn had several hours of hard luck tonight but when he arose at Il he was 31, 900 francs to the good on the day.
 Lord Rossyn told the World core spondent tonight that he had purposely operated in a small way for the first two days in order to get his hand in. He de- clared that he firmly expected to break the bank daily after a few days and to continue doing so as long as he Is per- mitted to play
 Before he came here Lord Rosslyn tested his system In London with the aid of a. croupier secured from France, play ing for days and days and always with success.

New York. January s.--A Monte Carlo cable to the World says:
 Lord Rossfyn has begun operations with intent to break the bank here. He start ed his play yesterday and has had four sittings, rising from the table at Il o'clock tonight. He has won at every sitting and the winnings to date are 67,o0o francs (s18, 4OO).
 Senator Chauncey Depew and his bride were among those who watched the Eng fish actor-peer at his victorious onslaught upon the gamblers tonight. The Senator and Mrs. Depew arrived at the Hotel Bristol at Beaulieu today and immediate ly came here. They dined with the Ba- roness Van Andre at p. m. and at 10 o'clock the party strolied into the gaming rooms.
 Mrs. Depew was deeply interested In the contest, but the Senator watched 1t with the eyes of a man of the world, to whom everything was an old story He was much pleased to see the interest his new wife evinced in the game and looked on indulgently while she duplicated the play of the earl with small stakes. She played for 20 minutes and won s125. Then the Senator took her away to Beaulieu, where they arrived at midnight.
 Lord Rosslyn lost no time in getting at the bank after his arrival yesterday. He had two sittings at trente ct quarante, one in the afternoon and one at night. On an accounting at night he was found to have won s720o. The managers of the bank remain calm under the success of the earl with his system and evidently count upon getting all of the money sub scribed by the English syndicate that is backing the noble gambler.
 Lord Rosslyn arrived accompanied by three members of the syndicate, an &C., countant, stenograpner and detec- tive. When the man with system and his suite reached the room of chance at 2 o'clock there was immense excitement. The roulette tables were deserted and every one gathered about the trente ct quarante table where Lord Rosslyn took a seat. He smiled back affably at the beaming faces about him and at the nu- merous women who waved their hands

 Stable Are Appareled.

From, the American Tailor and Cutter.

CAN USE TICKETS.
Judge Declares Strikers Can Adopt
 Any Peaceful Measure to Win.

Chicago, January S.-Judge Chetlain in the Circuit Court of Cook county today granted the Robert Tarrant Company, temporary injunction against striking ma chinsts but in doing so delivered an opin- ion said to be the direct antithesis of recent ruling in the federal court. Judge Chetlan said strikers had the right to use peaceful methods in their fights and declared that patrol or picket may not necessarily imply force or a threat of bodily harm"
 In granting the injunction the court explained that 1t was not because the place was piclzeted but because there was unquestioned evidence that the pickets had used threats and violence. The court also declared that persons charged with violating an injunction should not be judged by a magistrate on a charge of contempt of court but should be given a jury trial.

Wright appeared to be all right
when taken to the depot, but after
being there a few minutes he sud

unconscious for some time, when
some brandy was given him and he

been on such a protracted spree that
the sudden deprivation of liquor
caused his collapse.

SHOT BY BOGUS BILL.
William hieddie Receives Wound
Said to Be FATAL

Sdtu " DC dldIs
Word reached the offices Of the
Northern Pacific at late hour
Wednesday night from Hope of a
shooting ARRAY that would likely re-
suit in the death of William Heddie,
a we'll known character about the
town, whose existence was a precari-
GUS one, eked out by hunting and
fishing, says the Muscular.
The report states that an early
hour the preceding morning, Heddie
was shot by man who, about Hope,
is known as Bogus Bill" One of
the bullets struck low in the stomach,
the second reaching the fieshy part
of the leg. Heddie was alive at an
early hour this morning, but his
chances of surviving were exceed
ingly slight.
There were no witnesses to the en-
counter, and Heddie is unable to
speak. Bogus Bill alleges in extenu-
alton of his act that it was in self
defense and followed pursuit of him
self by Heddie for several days with
intent to do him up.
