TRUNKS and VALISES, The R. H. CROWDER CO. IAMOUS PEOPLE BY FANNIE M. LOTHROP Q—A fi Photo by \otman, Montreal ROBERT GILLESPIE new The Uncrowned Czar of Newfoundland. The largest landowner in the world, a short time ago, was Robert G, Reid, the Czar of Newfoundland, who owned one-sixth of the island which is nearly as large as Erigglaml, and held the welfare of the colony with its two hundred thousand people, in thv hollow of his hand. A most retnarkable and romantic story is the history of this pian of Monte Cristo dreams. Unparalleled concessions and mon- . °;polies rainy to him from a people who practically mortgaged their island for his r hissaving thecountry ready money and help in hours of need, and in recognition of e nt y in its stn rgeit y they uittc1' him an. uncrowned autocrat. sixty-three •'ars un Born in tJoul>rr, Angus, tsrottatixl, ,years ago, he went as a young man to Australia. an the gold -fever days, and while there built sorne public works and acquir'd •Cita foundation of Iiis knowledge of constructing and contracting which led to hi.3 great fortune. In 1871 he came to i.nierica and made his first hit in engin `aria;.', work with his splendid bridge over the: Niagara river. Then ht bridged tip ltto tlran~ia, and won a national reputatiorr•for a long string of other engineering trimm phs. l3old, audacious and resourceful, he performed impossible work with -a e't't.tinty and ease that were appalling. He went into railroad work and whatever his hand toueh,'d Blossomed into success. One of the most difficult t3:'"tions of tli4 Canadian Pacific Railway was entrusted to him, and the obstacles that Natur.s hall put in his way were brushed aside as if they were cobwebs. In 189.) ea.:ue the dawn of his greatest sueeess. Newfoundland was nearly bankrupt. This colony with ambition was struggling with political corruption einnplieated with chaotae chicanery and mismanagement. The governnnent was crying for a railroadl---steed tracks through the wilderness, They made a proposi- ttotti to , Reid ter build 2)) miles' this he did and did it well. 'Three years later they called on him again for more building; they had little money but they had land privile..es eons.'. tons franchises, rights and monopolies ---these were placed on .11 silver platter. which' they implored Reid to aeeept.

Ire slid great things for the people and the Country, but despite his enterprise, his generosity, his kindly rule and his wise administration, and that of his three sons while he was absent, the grumbling of the. people swelled into rebellion, and four years ago his power was greatly lessened by the Bond regime.
