THE Legislature of Kentucky adj
journed Tuesday without electing
United States Senator, 1t has been
a complicated session. The Republi-
cans were in a minority and could
not elect. The Democrats had a ma
jority, but several sound money men
resolutely refused to vote for Senator
Blackburn, who could not muster
enough votes to win without them.
Senator Blackburn declined to with
draw and permit the election Of some
other Democrat, and so the exciting
session passed by and no Senator was
chosen.

way waited TO give him greeting Thou
sands We're shouting welcome, guns
were booming from the forts and frig-
ates, women were in ecstasies of hys-
terical welcoming and there he stood,
unconscious, who knows where?
No doubt such exceptional qualities
of head and armand it may be said
of heart also-were needed for the sue
cess of the great and perilous enter
prise and this being so, few will be-
grudge this man the exceptional re-
wards which his success has won for
him. Honors have been showered upon
him, and, as TO money, all the largest
publishing firms in the world have been
competing to enrich him. He can count
the sums which his book will bring
him, not by thousands, but by tens Of
thousands of dollars. He was able TO
refuse from a German impressairo an
offer of $4,000 for a hundred lectures,
and from a publisher in Denmark a
sum of 100, 900 kroners for the Scandi
navian rights of his book. And SO
on, and when he left Norway three
years ago he was a poor man, for he
had put his all into this patriotic en-
terprise. The harvest is a golden one,
it is true, but when one remembers the
times of sowing, he wonders if even
this golden harvest is a fair reward.

just on account of this habit of his of
absorbing himself in some thought or
train of thought that he is able-be-
ing entirely taken up-to rise Superior
TO all physical inconvenience and even
suffering. His people tell of him that

mental abstraction ne seemed oblivious
of all physical Impressions. There is q
story of an egg which Fridtjof was
eating at breakfast, which strongly
manifested thai it was not Christian
diet. The boy had noticed nothing. and
his wits were certainly not wool-gath-
ering- These periods of mental absorp-
ton may be noticed even today by any
one who watches him, even when his
attention might be supposed to be most
wildly engaged. His eyes seem to go
out, the head droops and the hands
turn outwards. I observed this several
times during my stay in Christiania
and at no time was l more impressed
thereby, than when having landed from

of the punishment, but the certainty
of it that operated as the greatest pre-
ventive of crime. He sought to make
criminals feel certain that their crimes
would be visited upon them, whether
great or small in degree of guilt, and
this policy. he held. worked miracles.
1t was the certainty that the law would
be vindicated in his court that had
such a restraining influence on mobs
in this wild country. Some OF the
most atrocious crimes of the age have
been committed in this jurisdiction, but
the judges claim that mob law was
an unkonwc thing in this jurisdiction
was perfectly true.
On the bench Judge Parker was
grave. dignifed and very quick. His
decisions were sound and lust. and he
was kind TO witnesses Whenever a
witness was roughly handled by an
attorney the judge took the examina-
ton out of the lawyers hands and con-
Quoted If himself. Often he was q
bugbear.
When he made his charge to the
jury Judge Parker departed distinctly
from the non-biased methods of most
American judges. Indeed, he delivered
a speech TO the jury, going over the
evidence. in case he was convinced of
the defendants guilt, and making an
argument that was usually more con-
vincing to the '12 good men and true"
than was the speech of the prosecutor,
and generally more effective.
OF course the lawyers who practiced
in his court did not like him. They
charged him with forcing convictions
in order that the large sum necessary
to maintain the court was not cut off
But the Judge cared not a jot for at
torneys' opinions of him. His life had
often been threatened by anonymous
letters, but he paid small attention to
them or their authors.
He was specially interested in the
schools in the Indian country. One of
his pet theories was that early educa-
ton will make men less criminal, and
he worked hard for his idea.

he is a poor man. for every kroner he
possessed had been invested in this
enterprise, he found means to supple
lnent with a large sum The money rec
oIapenses allowed them by govern
ment which has not distinguished itself
by liberality.
There was never shown greater mod
esty in greater triumph. His attitude
is always a depreciating one; the sim
plicity of his dress has been even COM
mented upon by malevolent and jealous
observers, as an affectation. Those
who knew him. have talked to him,
have seen him in his simple home, see
here only another sign of what, next
TO his courage, is the most salient trait
in his character. It is a quality which
no doubt he owes to some extent to the
admirable education which he received
at home His father Baldur hansen,
