Tho Trouble In Norway.

The average opinion concerning sSwe- den and Norway is that these two co un- tries constitute one kingdom and tn st kingdom is Sweden. This isexactly wha the Norwegians object to. Swedes and Norsemen are as differentin raceas Irish men and Scotchmen and like each other much tho same as m Ulsterman and 8 Corkonian do The complaint of the Nor wegians is that Sweden appropriates all she consulships to herself, which is a Iraye charge indeed--as bad as if an American president should give all the postoffices to one faction of his party.
 Norway was given up by Denmark in the treaty of Kiel in 1874, and Sweden and Norway were united into one king dom. Norway, to begin, never has &C., knowledged that Denmark had n right to cede her to any country, and that was an original source of irritation. The articles of union declared Norway to be a free, independent and indivisible king. dom" to be governed jointly with Swe- den under one king. Norway was to have forever her own parliament, called in Norwegian the storthing composed oi two houses, like other modern legisla- tive bodies. The Norwegian executive ! department consists of cabinet or council, part of which remains iii Stock holm to be in communication with the king. The king is always Swcde, the minister Of foreign affairs is always Swede. and tho consular and diplomatic servants are always Swedes or Norwe- gians of Swedish sentiments. When therefore a Norwegian wishes to appeal to any representative of his country abroad. it is always Swcde to whom he must go, a person of different nation ality and sympathies.
 How serious matter this is is laid be- fore usin The North American Review by Professor H. II. Boycsen. The Norwe- gians. through their storthing, have made the fight to beallowed q consular and dip lomatic representation of their own This the king of Sweden has not been disposed to grant. In revenge the storthing cut of the kings civil list Then less than 1 ever were King Oscar II and his Swedish parliament disposed to grant Norway's request. The Swedes are quiet, rather aristocratic, people. Norwegians aie
 
 down little to suit nineteenth century requirements. They will not yield the claim they have made. Even in case of war between the two countries, Boyesen does not believe Sweden could whip the Norwegians ur mako them stay whipped after she had conquered them tempo rarilv.

Seeing that tornado is about the most powerful force known, it is rather odd that the aid of blasts of air has not been invoked long ago for mechanical work to much greater extent than has, been done. At & colliery in Jermyn, Pa, q tremendous air blast is used for re. moving the waste and culm from the mouth of a coal mine. The refuse is discharged from the mouth of the mine into a hopper connected with feed pipe. A current of air hurls the rub Dish through the pipe and out beyond it's mouth to distance of 150 feet. The cost of the men, mules and carts thus dispensed with constitutes pretty item of income.

Bismarck in recent speech to odelegates from German chambers of commerce told what he thought of millionaires in unmistakable language. He said: Com merce and agriculture ought to go hand in hand. Although the latter in the pres ent depression deserves all consideration, it ought not to be favored at the expense of trade and industry. Tho bitterness with which lnillionaires are regarded in Germany is not justified It would be much better for Germany if she pos scssed, like England and America, ten times as many millionaires as she now has,

Communicntinc Cholera.

Ton may breathe cholera germs into your lungs, and they will have 10 effect on you. They may even be in your clothing and your hair, and you will moi take the scourge. But let them be in the food you eat or tho water, milk, cof- fee or beer you drink and pass into your stomach, then it iJ that the cholera con tagion catches you. Cholera must be eaten It cannot be absorbed or breathed," reports Dr. Kcinpstcr. He is the United States government agent who was appointed 10 investigate the whole subject of cholera in Europe, Asia and America. The disease always starts in British India, is brought westward by pilgrims returning from Mecca, and it always spreads over Europe through three great routes --northcr;l, central or through the Mediterranean. By the lat ter route it lSlched France this summer.
 The obv.ous remedy is strict quaran tine and sanitation. There is scarcely q doubt that the rigid prccautHns ill l}oth these directions have kept the plagac out of America this summer and prevented its going inland last fail Absolute cleanliness G.id purify of food and ,l-iNls are required, 1he strms trayol upon the clothing and hands, uron articles of merchandise and in inc air. Once they enter the hnman stomach there is case of cholera.

Silver Wedding.

For twenty-five years Peter Green
wade and wife have walked together
down life's rugged path. In adver-
sitY and prosperity they have been the
same congenial two and have gotten
out of life all the happinessin store for
them, and on last Friday, August 81,
in commemoration of their twenty
fifth anniversary they celebrated their
silver wedding. A host of friends
were present and numerous were the
gifts. The dinner was most delight
full spread and the two were as happy
as they were twenty-five years ago
when Miss Mollie Ramey became the
bride of Peter Greenwade. May their
lives be together MANY, many years
more and be crowned with blessings
not few.

Two Small Fires in Two Days.

Saturday at noon an alarm was
sounded and it was discovered that
there was small blaze in Smith

This time the fire originated from

entire property was owned by col

Our Schools.

The opening of the schools yester-
day was exceedingly gratifying to the
several promoters of these enterp rises.
The number of pupils in attendance
was generally larger than expected on
the first day and particularly amid
the extremely hot weather we are en-
during.
Goodwin's High School opened with
15 students in their desks, and he
will have his full number (30) by next
week.
Emerson Institute opened with 80
girls, and the principal is in good
spirits about the success of her work.
Miss Rannie Burroughs school
opened with more flattering prospects
than ever in it's history; 60 pupils
were enrolled, and she has her school
SO well graded that in day or two
all will be running as smooth as il
the school had been in operation a
year. Miss Rannie is success in her
work, and no amount of hard work
deters her from giving her pupils all
the attention needed.
The X. t. S. opened fifty per cent.
above what the opening was last year.
Many new pupils have come in from
both home and distant points.
Maj. Fowler has employed splen.
did corps of teachers both for the X
L. s. and Harris Institute, and, as he
always has done, will give those en-
trusted to his care the most efficient
teaching possiblea Over 90 pupils

Died, on Sunday morning, Septem-
Der 2, 1894, L. d. Wilson, aged Is
years.
For some time past Mr.. Wilson has
been in failing health and the totter-
ing old remnant of his once stalwart
frame was not an unusual sight, as
the old man who knew everyone and
was liked by old and young, was seen
making his uneasy way along the
street. Uncle bud was for many,
many years a member of the Metho-
dist Church. He loved her service
and her songs and the old paths and
achievements of his church in the day
when the "circuit rider" was in the
land. Uncle bud was benevolent
man, but not in an ostentatious way.
He never thrust his charities before
the public gaze. He was in large
sense grateful man. He never for
got kindness done him. Only yes
terday lifelong friend said of him
Dudley never tired of wanting to do
me kindness and to show me accom-
dations because of some kindness my
father had shown to his mother when
she was widow with small children
danpndent unon harv Uncle DudleV
was successful business man and
was long identified with the business
interests of this town. His wife, the
well-beloved Eliza, preceded him to
the beyond by several years, and
since then Uncle buds chief wish has
been to join her. His desire has been
gratifed and yesterday afternoon he
was laid to rest by her side in oul
beautiful Machpelah.

On the 10Th of this month the Re-
publicans of this county will meet in
convention to name county ticket.
Ed. G, Orear is spoken OF for County
Judge, G. L. kirkpatrick for County
Clerk, and others too numerous for
the other offices. 1t is claimed by the
Republicans that the two named gen.
tlemen would either make a very
close fight or would win. We would
be glad to see the Republicans name
their best men, but they have no
chance for preferment in this county.
1t is true that Mr.. Orear is good
lawyer, but he is no better than Mr..
A. B. White, nor will he ever be. Mr..
kirkpatrick is a good business man
and would probably make good
County Clerk if he had an opportun-
ity, but he is no better business man
than Mr.. Lucien Greene, could not
make better Clerk and will never
have an opportunity in this county to
show 81, 3r his correctness or pen
manship. The fact is no Democratic
county in Kentucky has any spoils for
Republicans.

The article in the Montgomery
Times of September l, commenting on
baseball, makes bad matter worse.
The writer reminds us very much of
the man who saw any number of
tigers in India, but never met soli-
tary Missionary during his two years
soiourn in that country. The fact is,
we generally find what we are look
ing for whether in India or Kentucky.
The assertion that the national game
would be Gas lifeless as a last years
birds nest with the betting left out"
is simply ridiculous. The largest and
most excitable crowd that has been
on the grounds this season, witnessed
the last game between Paris and Mt.
Sterling. There were present 600
people, and the betting contingent did
not number fifty, all told. We have
our pro rata of gamblers, but they do
not, as seems to have been intimated,
constitute the bulk of our population,
nor are they by any means the only
class who patronize or who are inter-
ested IN outdoor sports.

among our young people on account
of both parties being so well known

of the sweetest and most accomplish

known her nearly her whole life, and
from childhood up to the present time
she has always been the same sweet
Christian girl, and in winning her Mr..

MT STERLING. KENTUCKY, TUESDAY,
MT. Sterling Club Disbands.

On last Saturday night Manager
Chiles settled with his men and gave
them their release. This means that
the season for the national sport at
this place has ceased until another
year. We are sorry to learn of this,
as the game at this period of the
baseball season is more largely at
tended and more enjoyable than at
any time during the year. Manager
Chiles expressed himself as being sat-
isfied with the result of his labors
during the brief time the club was un-
der his management, and says his
success, financially, is due to the lib
eral patronage his club received from
the people of this city, for which he
wishes to extend his thanks.
We will not give notice of the games
the past week, as the people most in
terested are fully acquainted with the
facts, but we will venture to remark
that if disagreeable dissemination
among the players had not grown to
an indecorous stage, we are confident
that Manager Chiles would have car
ried the club month or so longer,
But it is all over now, and "the mill
will never grind again with the water
that has passed.
OF ball players who use their ton.
CUES more than their talents in game
of ball, Mr.. Joe Quinn, of baseball
fame, has this say: "The players who
use vulgar or profane language or ac
the rowdy or bully during game
have not sense enough to. see that sucf
practices affect the patronage, anG
consequently their OWE reputation
There is no penalty too severe for sucl
offenses, and if the clubs won't disci
pline players who make these break
the manager should. The bette
class of players condemn hoodlumism
The umpire should be instructed t
promptly fine any player who swear
or uses vile language during tn
game, and if the offense is repeated
the tough who persists should be rul
out of the game. The foul-mOuthet
player does the protest. on as much, i
not more, harm as the dirty ball play
! er. People will not patronize tn
sport if they are compelled to listen t
the language of swell-headed toughs

DEATH MOST
FEARFUL :!
Six Towns Of Minnesota D6S-
troyed by Fire.
The Loss of Life Will Reach Into
the Hundreds.
Over Three Hundred and Fifty
People Reported Dead
And the List May Reach Five
Hundred.

st. Paul, Sept. Six towns be-
tween st. Paul and Duluth wiped
out and more than five hundred dead
is the record made by the forest fires
in this State in the last twenty-four
hours. Minnesota has never known
calamity attended with such loss
of life as that brought by the fire
which destroyed Hinckley, Mission
Greek. Sandstone, Sandstone juno
ton, Pokegama, Skunk Cake and the
other settlements in that vicieity.
A conservative estimate places the
loss of life at not less than 355, while
many others have sustained serious
injuries and unknown others are
among the missing, while from $50
TO 200 people were scattered on farms
throughout the district burned over.
One report gives the estimate of the
losses of life at Hinckley and other
places:
Hinckley, 200.
Sandstone, 46
Sandstone Junction, 20.
PoSegama, %. ...
Skunk Lake, 30,
Miscellaneous, 30.
Total, $50.
To this horror of death in its worst
form must be added the utter desola-
ton and restitution that have come
upon thousands of others whose all
has been swept away in the face of
impending winter. There is pecu-
liar horror about the fatality in the
admitted impossibility of Identified
ton of large proportion of the
corpses.
The destruction was complete in
most of the towns named, but some OF
the forest land escaped. The loss
however, will be in the millions and
the loss of life will not be definitely
known for several days, if ever.
