SP0RTSMEN'S SHOW WILL BEGIN TONIGHT

New York. Dec. 22.--The annual Sportsmen's Show opens tomorrow night in the Grand Central Palace un- der the auspices of the Forest. Fish and Game Society of America.
 All last week the big amphitheatre was in the hands of nature fakers'' in the persons of expert woodsmen and decorators. And, most surprising of all. the result would please and in- terest no one more than the present executive at Washington the arch- enemy of nature takers. The big buiid- ing has been transformed into a veri- table forest, filled with live game birds fish and animals. The decorators have succeeded in imparting as effectively as possible between walls the atmos- phere of the of-doors world.
 The exhibition is such as to appeal to all true lovers of sport. Trades de- pendent upon sport are represented. but in no instance have they been per mitted to dominate any part Of the show. The features of forest, fieid and stream are to be shown under the most natural and favorable conditions s. and it is hoped that one of the results of the exhibition will be to give new impetus to the movement for the pro- tection and preservation of the forest birds and animals which can be saved from extinction only through public sentiment.

Ambition Oyerreached.


 A distinguished jurist. in one of the cities of the South, on the morning when 1t was announced through the public press that the new rate laws of Alabama had been restrained by a judge of the United States court in that State, was heard to remark "I expected this: the railroads were left no other recourse"
 And this Is about what every other unbiased man is compelled to think and Alabama situation. The present Gov ernor first made a race for seat on the Alabama Railroad Commission un- der claims that he would bring about certain reductions in freight and pas senger rates for the benefit of the peo- pie. His election was secured on Tnat commission at an expenditure about double the annual salary of the posi- tion obtained. and yet nothing was accomplished by him that he claimed would be done if he was elected.
 Then came his campaign for the gov ernorship and 1t was almost entirely one of promises of what would be done to the railroads if given an opportu- nity. That opportunity was extended and now, after three sessions of the Legislature within years time. each session largely undoing the actionApre- viously taken, although declared at the
