Norwegian Time.

English tourists in Norway are re-
ported to be not little perplexed by the
eccentricities Of Norwegian time. At
homo they are accustomed to uniform
time, calculated for the meridian of
Greenwich; but in Norway every town
adopts its own meridian, hence tourists
watches are perpetually appearing to be
wrong. The telegraph Offices and the
railways that happen to be in connection
with Christiania regulate themselves, it
is true, by Christiania mean time, but
this only increases the confusion, for all
the other railways, together with The
steamers, start punctually by local time.
To add still further to his bewilderment,
no sooner does the traveller cross the
frontier than the Swedish railway time,
which is eighteen minutes different from
Christiania time, comes into use.
In Bergen unfortunate strangers who
have set their watches by the town or
postoffce clock are constantly rushing to
the telegraph office only to find that ii is
closed in accordance with Christiania
time. The unlucky British tourist who
spends so much Of his time and money
in Norway in these days might fairly
ask for little more consideration. The
Norwegians themselves are asking for a
uniform time according to the meridian

a New Swindle.

The police have discovered q new
swindle that shows great ingenuity
among the criminals practicing it, and
is entirely novel. It is another evidence
of the deep cunning Of thieves, which
has been rendered keen and daring by
the intense competition among the class
who live on the confidence of others.
The new swindle takes in the cunning
pawnbrokers and the astute police detect
ives and is marvel Of artistic crime.
The scheme is as follows: A man who
bears good reputation, but whose mo-
rality is below the average, buys fine
gold watch, which is distinctly marked,
so that it can be easily identified. He is
In league with swindler, who takes the
watch and pawns it, then skips outxHith
the money. The owner Of the watch
goes to the police, tells a plausible tale
OF how he was robbed and leaves a de-
scription of his property. It is soon
found in the pawnshop and recovered.
Ii not practiced too often it Is a very
good swindle. Confidence men without
local habitation travel around the coun-
try practicing this swindle. It is per
fectly safe.
One represents himself as travelling
man, railroad man or some other bird
OF passage, and the other is the unknown
thief. 1t is believed that this swindle has
been practiced successfully for some
Tune, but the police are now "watch-
ing for suspicious ceases. st Louis
