NORWAY IN DEAD EARNEST.

The Tension Between the King and the
Country Is Becoming Dangerous.
CHRIsTIANA. July 4.-King Oscar has
written to the President of the Storthing
(Norwegian Parliament) in reply to an ad-
dress from that body. This address ex-
pressed the Storthing's regret at the Royal
refusal to sanction the establishment Of
Norwegian consulates, and urged the Civ
ing of the desired sanction for the sake of
the union with Sweden and the monarchy,
thus making unnecessary the retirement of
Ministry alone commanding the Stor-
things confidence. In his reply the King
still declines to sanction the desired separ-
ate consulates for Norway, and his refusal
arouses widespread feeling which has re-
suited in several marked demonstrations.
A gathering of 10000 citizens, which as
sembled outside the residence of the Pre-
mier, was addressed by Bjornson, the Nor
wegian statesman. He told the people he
desired the maintenance of the defensive
union of Scandinavia, but desired also that
his country might enjoy full political tree
dom and equality. In response to the ova-
tion with which he was greeted Premier
Steen also addressed the crowd. He
thanked them for their sympathy, but ex-
pressed loyalty to the King. Similar
demonstrations occurred in other towns.

EUROPE NOW INVADED
At Its Very Weakest Sanitary Point
BY the Dreaded Cholera.
THE EPIDEMIC TRAVELLING FAST.
Corpses Uuburied for Days at Baku, and
the Populace Fleeing.
NEWS FROM THE EUROPEAN CAPITALS.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 4.-The Official
Gazette announces that there were eight
cases of cholera and three deaths in As
trakhan June 80, and four cases and one
death July l. The epidemic has, there
fore, entered European Russia at one OF the
most unhealthy and unsanitary points.
The latest official accounts from Baku on
June % and 80 enumerate 118 deaths and
100 fresh cases, and that 20 cases were cured
and ia were in the hospital. At Tifis, in
the three days ending July 1, there were
nine cases and four deaths. Many cases and
deaths are reported in Petrofsk, Sbemakka,
Shusha, Askabad and Uzunada. The cpl
demic has, therefore, travelled fast. All
suspected steamer traffic on the Caspian Sea
and Volga river has been stopped.
A Vienna dispatch says DIR. ORA Asche
declares that experience showed in Truru,
Baku and Tyria the disease is less virulent
than the true Asiatic cholera He thought
that the gravity of the outbreak had been
exaggerated; that the disease would soon be
checked by sanitary measures, and that
there is no need of apprehension Of Its
spreading.
The first fatal case Of cholera at Baku oc-
Cured at the railway station. The NUM-
cipal authorities there are doing nothing to
prevent the spread of the disease. No spec
ial hospital has been opened. Patients are
taken to the general hospital In public We
hicles. Many corpses are left unburied for
days. One body was found in public
bath. Doctors, municipal authorities and
inhabitants generally are fleeing from the
town. No disinfectants are obtaInable.
Great confusion prevails. The sanitary
condition of Astrakhan is terrible.

THE MOTHER OF A PRESIDENT.
She Died, However, Before the Great Co
Was Reached by Her Son.

She Died, However, Before the Great Goal
Was Reached by Her Son.
During our Revolutionary struggle, says
Harper's Young People. there were numerous
instances of female heroism. 1t was say
ing of Napoleon Bonaparte: ''Show me
the women OF a country, and will show
you its men," And history proves that al
most without exception great men have
been the sons of wise, judicious and pious
mothers. Such mother in North Carolina
was left a widow with three sons The
eldest and the next eldest gave themselves
to their country, and died upon the battle
field before America knew her independ-
ence. Her youngest only was left to her,
and for his support she was compelled to
labor.
After the fall of Charleston and the dis
astrous defeat of the Americans by Tarle-
ton, permission was given four or five
American women to carry provisions and
comfort to the prisoners confined on board
the prison ships and in the iails of Charles
ton. This poor widow volunteered to act
on the errand of mercy. Night and day she
labored to relieve the sufferlngs of her coun-
trymen, and after the tulfllment of Nhat
she felt to be her duty left the city of
Charleston. But the pestilential atmos-
phere had already planted the germs Of dis
ease in her system, and she died of the
fever from which she had been instrumental
in saving others. She left her orphan boy
to charity, as the world said, but in her last
words to the care of his Heavenly Father.
That orphan boy became President of the
Republic for which she had endured so
much.
His name was Andrew jackson.

Fathers Desperate but Futile Attempt to
Save His Little Boy.
PENSACOLA, FLA, July 4.-ISpecia,. j.
w. R. Hightower and his son james, aged
IL years, were both drowned in Perdida
Bay late yesterday afternoon. Hightower,
James, two young daughters of j. D. Gray
and daughter and son of Mr.. Young, all
of Millview, had been down the bay in a
sail boat on a pleasure trip. They were re-
turning about o'clock in the afternoon,
and James was endeavoring to raise the jib-
sail, when the boom swung around and
knocked him overheard. His father Ieaped
out after him, calling at the same time for
the young ladies to bring the boat about.
Unfortunately they knew nothing about
the management of sail boat, and it kept
steadily ahead. Hightower picked up his
son and swan after the boat for about a
quarter of mile. Finally, becoming ex-
hausted, he attempted to make tor the
shore, but both he and his son were so ia
tigued that they sank never to rise again.
The boat, with the young ladies aboard,
ran aground on the Florida side of the bay,
and they were saved. Assistance soon
came and men dragged the bay all night,
but did not recover the bodies until this
morning at 9 o'clock, when they were
found in six feet of water on the Alabama
side. Hightower formerly lived at De
Funiak Springs, but has recently been
working at the mills in Mlllview. His
wife died five months ago. He leaves three
children. When the bodies were recovered
this morning Hightower's face was badly
mutilated where the teeth of the drag had
raked across it during the attempts to re-
cover the body the night before.

PARIS, July An. Loewy, a diamond
merchant of this city, has committed sui

In Kansas, However, They Will Put Up No
Electoral Ticket Of Their Own.
TOPEKA, July 4-The result of the
Democratic County Conventions, held
throughout the State to elect delegates to
the Democratic State Convention, which
meets here Wednesday, show that
there is a great diversity of opin-
ion. There are three classes: One
favors the. Endorsement of the entire
Peoples party State ticket; another favors
the nomination of straight Democrats only,
and the third advocates the nomination of
such of the Peoples party candidates as
are acceptable to the Democrats. On one
point, however, Democrats are pretty we'll
agreed, and that is, the Peoples party cleo
toral ticket should receive the united sup
port of the Democratic party, that Kansas
may be taken out of the Republican column
and the election Of President thrown into
the House.
There are no avowed candidates for any
of the places on the Democratic ticket out
side of nominees of the Peoples party.
If the anti-fusionists should win, it is prob
able David Overmyer will be nominated
tor Congressman at Large.

WITH MARKED BULLETS.
The skiIlful Aleuts Bring Down the Rich

The SkiIlful Aleuts Bring Down the Rich
Coated Sea Otter.
More than two-thirds of all the sea offers
taken in Alaska are secured in the neigh
borhood of Saanach and Chernolours Be-
low the Straits of Fuca, in and about
Gray's Harbor, is another resort of theirs,
where they are shot from perches on tall
tripods 40 feet high, on which sharpshooters
sit in wait for them and mark them down
with wonderful accuracy, often at dis
tance of 1000 yards. When it is considered
that only the head of the animal is visible
above the water and that it is bobbing
on the waves, it will be seen what skill is
required in this pursuit.
When killed, the game floats ashore, where
it is picked up, each hunter having special
mark on his bullets, so that there shall be
no dispute as to the proprietorship. The
Alto Aleuts capture sea-otters by spreading
nets made of sinew or twine over the float
ing beds of kelp resorted to by the creatures.
Returning after few days they often find
several entangled in the meshes The beasts
might easily gnaw themselves free, but it
does not occur to them to do so, and they
actually die of fright. Nets are also spread
for the same purpose at the mouths of caves
in bluffs at tide-wash.

HUNTING THE SEA OTTER.
How the AIeuts Make 1t XIII Itself by Ere
quent Diving.

How the AIeuts Make 1t Kill Itself by Fre-
quent Diving.
The ancient method commonly practiced
by the Aleuts in the chase of the sea otter
was the "spearing surround" This kind of
hunt is engaged in by 15 or 20 skinboats,
with two men in each, all being under con-
troll of leader chosen by common consent.
When the weather is moderately good the
boats start out in long line, slowly pad
ding over the water where it is expected to
find the game.
AS quickly as one of the animals is dis
covered, asleep most likely, the hunter who
has espied it lifts his paddle for signal At
the same moment he darts toward the prey,
which nearly always takes alarm before 1t
can be struck, and instantly dives. But
the canoe keeps right on and stops
directly over the spot where the
beast disappeared, leaving circling rings
with floating bubbles from its
ouick-caught breath, The other boats i'm
me6iately deploy and scatter, forming a
circle half a mile wide around the place
where the sea otter was last seen. Thus ar
ranged, the hunters wait patiently for the
temperance of the animal, which must
come to the surface for breath in from 10 to
80 minutes. When this happens the boat
nearest darts forward like its predecessor,
while all hands shout and throw up their
spears to make the sea otter dive again,
thus giving it scarcely an instant in which
to recover itself and expel the poisoned air
from its lungs. A sentry is placed over the
second diving wake as before, and the circle
is drawn anew. In this manner the sur
prise is quickly and often repeated, some
times for two or three hours, until the vic
tim, from oft-interrupted inspiration, be-
comes so exhausted and filled with gases as
to be unable to sink, and then it is easily
speared. Arrows five feet long, exquisitely
made and pointed with barbed pieces Of
bone, are shot at the prey whenever there
is an opportunity, the regulation being
that the game belongs to the man whose
shaft strikes it first.

OMAHA, July 4-The delegates were
prompt in arriving for the night session
and they were all nervous and expectant,
owing to the lack of positive and final in.
formation as to the possibility of an accept
able nomination by Judge Gresham. The
audience was large one. There had been
complaint during the afternoon, of the pres
ence among the delegates of persons not &C.
credited to the convention, and it was
charged that some of them had even exer-
cised the right to vote. To guard against
this the roll of States was called and each
delegation was required to answer that
there were no unauthorized persons in its
chairs. This also had the effect of DELAYING
business until the convention could learn
absolutely and definitely exactly what it
could rely on with reference to Judge
Gresham.
The first actual business was the reading
by Chairman Branch, of the Resolutions
Committee, of supplement to the platform
as follows:
Your Committee on Platform and Resolu-
tions beg leave unanimously to report the
following:
Some Afterthoughts Suggested.
WHEREAS, Other questions having been
presented for our consideration, we hereby
submit the following, not as a part of the
platform OF the Peoples party, but as reso-
lutions expressive Of the sentiment of this
convention.
First-Resolved, That we demand free
ballot and q fair count in all elections, and
pledge ourselves to secure 1t to every legal
vo ter, without Federal Intervention,
through the adoption by the States of the
tenn.
Second-Resolved, That the revenue de.
rived from a graduated income tax should
be applied to the reduction OF the burden of
taxation now levied upon the domestic in
dustries of this country.
Third-Reso!yed, That we pledge our sup
port to fair and liberal pensions to ex Union
soldiers and sailors.
Fourth-Resolved, That we condemn the
fallacy of protecting American labor under
the present system, which opens our ports
to the pauper and criminal classes of the
world, and crowds out our wage learners:
and we denounce the present Ineffective
laws against contract labor and demand the
further restriction of undesirable immi-
grafton.
Fifth Resolved, That we cordially SYM
pathize with the efforts of organized work
tngmen to shorten the hours Of labor, and
demand rigid enforcement Of the existing
