CHEAP FOOD IN NORWAY.

Correspondence Chicago Post.

There Is a novel institution in Chris
tiania in the way of a monster cheap res
taurant: 1t is designated by the name of
Dampkjokke, which means in English
steamkitchen. 1t was established in 1858
and Is run by well-disposed persons, not
as a charitable institution, but is made
self-supporting. The aim is to furnish
the most complete. weli-cooked meal for
the smallest possible sum. and, as this
idea was brought forward in Chicago
as accurate a description of the place as
possible. 1t solves a problem. By an
experience of thirty-six years the managers

to 21a cents OF our money; therefore q
ore Is not quite 9 cents. The food, which
usually consists of soup and fish and hash,
and sausage, with bread and vegetables,
is well cooked and clean. and a good, large
portion Is served to each guest. The build

There are no walters, in fact the ex-
pense of running the institution Is cut
down to the smallest possible minimum.
Consequently every penny saved goes into
the quality or the meals. About 800 can
sit down In both halls at once. 1t, there

usual attendance OF 1900.

ELEVEN MEN ENTOMBED,
Imprisoned I'm "a Mine by the Giving
Way of an Upper Level.

IRONWOOD. Mich, Oct. 25.-What may
prove 10 be the worst accident in the his
tory of the Menominee range occurred on
the fourth level Of shaft No. I at the
Pewabic mine, at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
One man is known to have been killed and
eleven others are entombed, and their fate
will not be known for eighteen hours, as it
will take that length Of time for as large
a force of men as can be employed in the
narrow shaft to clear away the rubbish.
The accident was caused by the sandstone
Gaping which overhung the room giving
away with sufficient force to crush the
timbers without any warning. The settling
commenced in an old room above the third
level about one hundred feet in height.
In an interview this evening Superintend-
ent Brown expressed himself as being con-
ident that all the entombed men would be
taken out alive. This will depend very
much on whether the air is pure and Of
sufficient quantity to keep them alive.
Some miners interviewed seem to think
that the supply will not prove sufficient,
and that it is charged with poisonous gases.
The body Of Frank Gabaardi. the man
killed. has been taken out. Among the men
imprisoned are John Farrell, Peter He'll
berg, William Richard and William Thorn
AZ All have families.
