strongly addicted to the habit of
chewing paper, says the St Louis
Post-Dispatch. Goertz had made the
Joung mans acquaintance on Il jour

Count Goert2 took him to Stockholm
and gave him place in the cabinet
At first the young secretary chewed

liking for paper even that had been
written on A peace treaty had been
formulated between Russia and Swe.

sembly forced Charles NIL to accept.
The basis OF the latter was treaty
which both states had agreed upon
with regard to Finland. The orig
lnal of this treaty was given by
Count Goertz to his young secretary
When it was called for by the assem-
bly, it could nowhere be found. The
assembly believed that it had been
destroyed by Goertz in order to over
throw the peace policy and give
Charles MI, chance to go to war.
Goert2 was arrested, when his secre-
tary came forward and confessed
having masticated the document. He
was tried and sentenced to death.
The king would gladly have par
doned him haa he dared in the face
OF the angry assembly, but he gave
him an opportunity to flee from the
country.
