HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN.

This distinguished Danish poet was
born on the 2nd April 1905 in 0dense'
where his father, Hans Andersen, was a
poor Shoemaker. His whole life has been
one full of the most stirring events, but his
youthful days especially were passed in
hard struggles with poverty and mis-
judgments. His vivid imagination and
innate poetical genius manifested them
selves at q very early stage OF his lie
when a boy of only 9 years he essayed to
write comedies and tragedies, and his gifts
in that direction were encouraged and
developed more and more by his constant
study of a vast number of poetical works.
After his fathers death, the mother at length
yielded to the earnest desire OF her son,
and sent him to Copenhagen in 1919,
where the Poet Baggesen predicted that
something great would some day grow
out of the boy. After much adversely he
at length found friends and protectors 10
Copenhagen, through whose assistance
he was first admitted as a pupil in the
dancing and singing-school of the Royal
Theatre, and afterwards obtained aid from
public sources in the pursuit of his studies.
While at School in Slagelse and Helsing6r,
he distinguished himself by several poems,
one OF which, entitled bet d0ende Barn"
(The dying Ghild),. won extraordinary
applause, so that his name was already
pretty we'll known when in 1923 he was
admitted to the University. His p%oetical
productions were just at this time OF a
very rich and extensive nature; his. first
work was a ~satirical poem entitled cen

To the Editor Of the St. CrOlx Avis.
Mr.. Editor,

l beg to call your attention, as well as
that Of the local authorities, to q circum-
stance which l maintain operates uniustly
toward myself and other mechanics OF
this place: l mean that of employing
seamen from vessels Iying in the harbor
to perform shore labor, for the privilege
of doing which we native laborers are COM
PEELED to pay, in the shape of license.
During the past week there have been
from three to five men, belonging on
board a vessel in the harbor, constantly
employed in repairing and painting a
private residence OF this town, while at
least a score Of painters and carpenters,
who carry their license in their pockets,
are unable to procure work, and many OF
whose families are in want of bread. There
fore in behalf Of myself and other mecha-
MICS, earnestly protest against this prac-
tice being longer permitted, and appeal
to the authorities to see that 1t il
discontinued.
Respectfully

AMERICAN COMMUNISM.
(From the Herald)

It is rather surprising, unless one has
given attention to the subject, that so
many curiosities of social economy exist
and flourish on American soil. This great
Republic seems to be the natural shelter
for eccentric developments of all kinds.
1t gives a warm welcome to all those
communistic vagaries which find it diff
cult to grow and thrive under European

THE DUTY ON SUGAR IN DENMARK,
(From D~agbladet)
(From Dagbladetl

The Draft of Law which the Minister
of Finances laid before the Diet yesterday,
purports to prolong the validity of the law
of 28th March concerning alteration in the
duty on sugar to LIST April 1876. In the
motives a reservation is made to the effect
that, in case the introduction in ST.
Croix Of the Central Factories under con-
temptation should be deferred longer than
is supposed, then to apply for the further
pro!ongation of the duration OF the ex-
listing enactments concerning the duty
on muscovado sugars, while the other
e~nactments, it is supposed, will be en-
bodied in the eventual new Customs Law.

1t was a sensible plan to erect two Fac
tories, and from the physical conformation
of the island it would be easy to take the
juice through pipes from the extracting
stations to the factories. By the Credit
Association proposed the value of estates
was strengthened. He recommended the
Draft very warmly and would regret very
much if St. Croix should sink down to be
a pauper colony.
TIL. Nielsen and Boyer made a few more
remarks and the draft was passed to second
discussion and referred to q Committee OF
z members.

We see by the Atlanta papers
that Mr.. Il D. T Lawrence, of this
city, has been awarded the contract
for building a county bridge across
Utoy Creek, on the Campbellton
road, by Judge Pittman. This is
an evidence that all the shrewd men
and close calculators are not center
ed in Atlanta, as some might sup.
pose, for, we understand, Mr.. Law
rence's bid was one among many put
in by Experienced engineers and
bridge builders determined to have
the work if possible. 2
MARIETTA has live contractors,
engineers and builders, you may
rest assured. Messrs. II. b. Wallis
& Son contractors for brick and rock
work, and Henderson & Dyson con-
tractors for wood work, succeeded
in securing the building of the new
Court House at Douglassyille, Doug
lass county, and are rapidly pushing
the work forward to completion
Douglass will certainly have a court
house that will be an ornament to
the place, as well as serviceble to the
county, for the contractors are mas
ter mechanics.
