Tho agitation for the establishment OF
separate Norway consular system has
raised constitutional question. which now
threatens to break up the union Of the two
Kingdoms occupying the Scandinavian pen
insula.
Tho Storthing. MS the single chamber
constituting the Norwegian Parliament is
called. has formally sanctioned the popular
cutlery for the appointment OF Norwegian
Consul-, and defends It's course on the plaus-
iblc ground that the commercial policies
OF the two kingdoms are based upon oppo-
site principles. Sweden being vigorously
protectlonist while Norway nclines to free
trade. There is reason to believe. however,
that II this request were granted 1t would
presently be followed by a claim more in
admissible. The advanced Radicals who
follow the poet politician BJ6RNsrJEnNE
RJ6RNsON already proclaim the right OF
Norway to name not only her own Con-
suls but her own diplomatic repre-
sentatives and to conclude her own treaties.
This foreshadowed demand is clearly in
compatible with the maintenance OF even
the present shadowy union between the
kingdoms. The coexistence OF two sep-
arate State Departments directing two
separate foreign policies to be enforced in
the last resort by two separate armies and
navies under the command OF n sovereign
common to both States. Is scheme 80 I'M
workable that 1t cannot be even meant to
work. Its consequence. and probably tho
aim OF its authors, Is the complete political
separation OF Norway and Sweden.
1t is scarcely plausible to conceive OF
system OF home rule more complete. short
OF absolute independence. than Norway has
enjoyed since 1914. when, after being con-
nectcd with Denmark for upward OF three
centuries. it was forcibly united with
Sweden b. BERNADoTTE In pursuance OF q
mandate OF the great powers. The act OF
union. however, conceded to the Norwc-
gians the acknowledgements Constitution
which they had just framed for themselves.
and which involved the exercise OF an al
most unparalleled amount OF local autono-
my. Under the working OF this organic law
tho Two countries have separate ConStitu-
uons, separate Governments. separate laws,
separate Parliumcnts, separate Church.
separate army and navy, n separate fiscal
system, and separate customs tariffs. Not
only are all these institutions separate, hut
they are very dissilniar both in form and
spirit. The union consists merely in this.
that the two countries have the same King
and tho same law Of succession to the
throne: that tho King is the supreme COM
mander OF their naval and military forces.
and that the Swedish Minister for Foreign
Afa'rs is intrusted with the conduct OF
their common foreign policy. which is car
ried into effect by a common diplomatic
and consular service.
We have seen that the Norwegian Radi-
calls practically aim at the extinction OF
the last remnant of political association be-
tween tire kingdoms. 1t is equally certain

WEIRD AND WONDRCuS CAVERN.
Evidently Prison Tor the Warriors Of Some
Previous Race.

7 SAS FRANcIsco, Cal, Nov. 23.--An ex-
plorer has discovered on the crest of a
mountain in Tuolumne county, high above
the Stanislaus river, u cavern 500 feet deep,
in which the bones of many series of human
beings have been found.
The nature of the cave and the condition
of the bones indicate that the place was in
some remote age used as prison in which
savages threw their captves to die. But it
was long ago that the cavern received its
last victim for the bones arr turned to lime
and practically petri'ied.
The cave is near the old mining town of
Columbia. II is formed of marble of va
rious hues. white pink and BLUSH, and that
is coated over with transparent lime form
alton, from which hang stalactites in every
conceivable shape. At the first landing the
cavern was narrow, but il twisted in various
contortions and opened out into small cham
bers on every side-chambers ornamenied
in odd stalactite forms, and occupied by
stray remnants of former beings.
The first vision of bones was caught as
one of the torches was held under the over
hanging walls. This recess extended iu-
ward from The stairway. Half bushel or
so of bones were on the hoor in this recess
hudded up in manner that indicated their
frequent molestation.
