NORWAY's BIG EXHIBITION.
Consul Hobe Receives Some inter-
estinG Literature About 1t.

In Rerqen the ancient capital Of Nor
NOV there is being held an exhibition which
is of great interest TO the United States. II
is the international fishery exhibition ana II
concerns this country, because the American
exhibit is one of the most important shown
Russia France, Sweden, Japan ana other ma
tions have exhibits there, but they are OF
secondary Importance compared with that
of this country.
The American exhibit has contributed not
a little to the success of the affair, and all
the NorwegiaQ papers praise 1t hlSnly. Inc
United States government took an interest IN
the exhibition from the beginning, for no
such exhibition has been held since 1865.
Bergen is q natural place to hold sucn an
exhibition because that city is the chief
fish port in Europe. Fishing is the princi-
pal business of the people,
The exhibition was opened May 10 by me
crown prince of Norway and several German
princes. The occasion was celebrated with
great pomp, and the royal patrons of the ex-
hibition have assisted in every way to make
fisheries may be seen in the exhibition
grounds. The capture OF whale and seal is
illustrated as we'll the methods of curing
fish of all kinds and preparing them Tor
market. The herring fisheries take up
good deal of space for that is one of the
principal branches of the business pursued In
Norway. That country exports 1000 bar
rels of herring every year and about S0.00O,-
600 barrels of cod and stockfsh. The annual
catch of whales is about 1000. In connec-
ton with the exhibition the Bergen expert
mental fishery school has an exhibit in which
is shown the results of fish culture.
The American exhibit. which occupies a
large space, shows what this country does
In the way of supplying the world with deep
sea and fresh water food:
The exhibition is not devoted entirely to
the fisheries. In connection with it is an
industrial exhibition. where is shown the
various arts in which the Norwegans excel.
Boat building is one of these, Specimens of
all kinds of craft, ancient and modern, are
shown. from the war boat of the vikings to
the modern passenger steamer. There are
also exhibited samples of Norwegian en-
broidery and lace, and, in fact, every de-
partment of Norwegian industry is repre-
scented.
Consul E. H. Hobe, the Norwegian repre-
sentative in this city, has just received a
circular describing the exhibition. It con-
tains views of the various buildings the
grounds and varied information about the
city Of Bergen and its environs.
II not familiar with the exhibition, -
said Mr.. Hobe to a reporter for The G o b e
yesterday, but from all accounts it is one
OF the best held in Europe in many years.
The American exhibits are all highly COM
mended by the papers and any one who
going to Europe should make a point ! !.

SPANISH OFFICIALS OBJECT.
Military Governor Woods Measures
Are Considered Too Vigorous.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July 30.-The
vigorous measures of Gen. Wood, the
military governor of Santiago, are not
to the liking of the Spanish officials of
the city. They raise objections to ev-
cry new regulation intended to cleanse
and benefit the city. Despite their pro-
tests Gen. Wood continues his good
work He has stopped the collection Of
municipal taxes on goods designed for
local consumption, dissolved the har0or
board, brought the custom house under
control and taken measures to prevent
the spread of contagious diseases. One
of his most popular moves was to reg
ulate the price of bread.

TRANSPORTS TO RETURN.
Vessels That Carried Gen. BrOOke's
Forces to Porto Rico Ordered Back.

WASHINGTON, July 80. = Orders
have been sent by the war department
to Gen. Brooke, who, it is expected,
will arrive at Ponce, probably tomor-
row or Monday, directing him to send
back the transports which conveyed
the troops of the Porto Rican eXpedi-
ton as soon as possible The trans
ports will be returned to New York,
and will be utilized at once for sending
of additional troops to Porto Rico. The
troops will be embarked at Newport
News, probably, but the ships are to
be returned to New York because of
the quarantine regulations. The adj
d;tional troops to be sent to Porto Rico
will go very likely from Chickamauga,
and will be such part of Gen. Brooke's
corps as it is deemed desirable to add
to the expedition to Porto Rico.

the charge against the wife being desertlon.
The complaint was filed yesterday, the title

The Plaintiff in the case is the son OF John
Copeland, of the board Of public works. The
defendant in this case was the plaintiff in
tire case of last winter. She charged many
specific acts of alleged cruelty, but the court
dismissed the suit.
Mary L. Leach was granted divorce from
D. w. Leach Yesterday, by Judge Willis.
The cause alleged by the plaintiff was deser-
ton for three years past. The decree awards
the care of The three minor children to the
plaintiff. The case was not defended.

Speaking of the matter yesterday he said.
The company of which l am president

legitimate business recently established and
incorporated under the state law. The bus
mess is conducted on strictly legitimate lines
and those investing their money are guarans

company I should have had nothing to do

The business was started in Minneanolis
for the reason that those who are actively
engaged in the work are residents Of that
city, where 1t was desired to establish the
company befo'e branching out into Other
cities. Notwithstanding this, there has been
no effort to keep the company out of St
Paul, as a number OF contracts have already
been secured with local people,"

ANNUAL Y. P. S. C. E. PICNIC.
1t Was Held Yesterday Amid Lake
COmo's Leafy Shades.

About enc hundred and fifty Christian En-
deavorers from st. Paul assembled on the

yesterday afternoon for their annual pi mic
Nearly all of the various societies We're rep
resented by larger or small,r delegat oas,
and the time before the business meeting a.
7:30 was merrily spent
The meeting was delayed somewhat in
coming together in the hope that a larger
gathering might result. But at $50, with
about two hundred present, President w. G.
Fordyce called the meeting to order. Strag-
glers arrived from time to time who had not
been initiated in the solution of the wind
lngs and twisting of the paths OF Como park
and In consequence had lost their way. Their
presence swelled number at the rally by
about fifty.
The rally, which was the annual one of the
Christian Endeavor Union of st. Paul open d
with the singing of several hymns fol wed
by prayer by Rev. NJ. d. Edwards. Pres
ident Fordyce then announced the business
of the meeting as hearing the reports CT Of

coming years. The treasurer's report was
called for. and showed the receipts for the
past year to have been $14s.52 and the ex-
penditures $135.35, leaving a balance of 1921

IN INTERNATIONAL LAKES
JOINT HIGH COMMISSION TO
REGULATE FISHING

1t VIII Hold Meeting Aug. 10 Mt
Ierton, of the Minnesota Commits
sion, Has Forwarded to the Sec
rotary Some Facts as to COndi-
tians on the boundary Line.
Secretary of State Berg yesterday
received q letter from the American
secretary of the joint high commits
sion. which meets in Quebec Aug III,
asking for information in regard TO the
reciprocal privileges between Mime
sofa and Canada in protecting the flsh
preserves in International waters.
For a number of years Minnesota
has been unable to secure laws uni
form with those existing in Canada
for the protection of the fish in the
waters bordering both countries, and
il is with n view to granting reciprocal
privileges that the citizens or the
United States and the subjects OF
Great Britain in Canada will deliber-
ate in August.
The communication was referred to
Executive Agent Fullerton yesterday,
who advised the commission of the
conditions existing around the Lake
of the Woods, Rainy lake and Rainy
Lake river.
Mr.. Fullerton stated to The G o
yesterday that another effort would be
made this winter to secure the passage
by the legislature of a law which Will
fix the license fee imposed by Mime
sofa for fishing in international waters
the same as that imposed in Canada.
Repeated attempts have been MADE 10
put this state on more equitable oasis
with Canada in this matter by proper
legislation. but with little success.
The license charged per net in can
ada is $50 while in Minnesota it is only
SO. and the only difference in the hsh-
ing grounds is an imaginary line which
forms the boundry of the two coun-
tries. Naturally those engaged in the
business come to the Minnesota side
and take out licenses for as few nets
as they possibly can, and operate on
the American side. The shore line OF
the Lake of the Woods and the other
water ways on the boundary line is
very irregular, and the best nshlng is
found In the little coves and inlets.
The fishing concerns simply clean out
these little bays, and in many localities
the American side has been totally de-
populated of game fish, in when that
region abounds.
At the last session of congress an act
was passed providing for high COM
mission to act in conjunction with a
similar commission appointed by the
Canadian government to secure a uni
formitv of the laws of all the boundary
states. with those of Canada, and also
secure concession from the CANADIAN
government along the same lines.
The commission will also take up the
matter of the use by both governments
of canals crossing and near the poruer
lines of the two countries.
