ROYAL PLEASURES.
Great Gaycty Inaugurated by tn
Swedish Court,

Great Gaycty InauEUrnted by the
Swedish Court.
At no court in Europe is the round
OF winter festivities much gayer than
ut Stockholm, says o we'll known
newspaper syndicate writer in q re-
cent letter. The season does not open
until the king gives the first grand
ball, on his birthday, Jan. 81. To give
this years social season q special sig
nificance the crown prince of Den
mark and his family came up from
Copenhagen. Then began q merry
time. Even King Oscar, in spite of
his years, kept pace with the younger
set.
The first important event was the
formal opening Of the riksdag, Jan.
1S. in the 'riks salon." at the palace.
This is an ancient ceremony, very the
atrical and impressive. On this occa-
sion it Lad an additional interest. The
heir presumptve, Prince Gustaf Adolf,
the oldest son of the crown prince,
made his debut as q member of the
governn ent, and appeared before the
lawmakers with crown on his head
and the royal ermine about his shout
ders.
Two thousand invitations had been
issued for the grand evening ball. At
| 9:3O the king, his son and the royal
| guests from Denmark, entered the cas-
| tie ballroom and took their seats on
q dais. King Oscar opened the ball
and then went about chatting freely
with the guests. Supper was served
at midnight, and at 1 o'clock the as.
semblage began to depart.
The queen, who does not attend
balls. operas or festivities on account
Of ill health, celebrated her royal
spouse's birthday by distributing 1000
crowns ($2GS) among the poor and
needy.
The King gave grand dinner at the
castle Jan. 81. The royal salute was
fired from Skeppsholmen. In the
evening a grand performance Of
"Aida" was given at the royal opera.
Every seat was occupied The audi
ence had distracting time gazing at
the king and his royal guests and try
ing to listen to the opera. a
On Tuesday evening, Jan. %, Prince
Carl and Princess Ingebord gave a
soiree. which was attended by the
king, his Danish guests and the nota-
bles of Stockholm. Next evening q
ball was given by the Amarant order.
This exclusive society was founded
for social purposes only away back in
the seventeenth century by Queen
Christina, the daughter Of Gustavus
Adolphus.
The following day a large tobaggan-
ing party and dance We're held at
Saltsiobaden. A gala performance at
the theater, another evening at the cir
Gus and many dinners and dances
brought the festivities to close.

OLDEST IN AMERICA.
Norwegian Lutheran Church Mt Mus.

| Norwegian Lutheran Church Mt Mus
kcgo Antcdntcs All Others.
The old Norwegian Lutheran church
at Muskego, WIS, the first church Of
the kind erected in America, is to be
moved to Minneapolis and is now
ready for removal as soon as it is
finally. determined where the theolog-
ical seminary Of the United Norwe.
gian Lutheran church is to be built,
for the old church will be the pride Of
the seminary campus.
The main part of the church is 24x34
feet and the choir is 16x24. Primitive
as was the architectural knowledge
Of it's builders, and rude their tools,
they still realized that they were build
ing church. and hence they tried to
copy the old Morse style of Il main
building and n SORT of an addition fol
the altar and Sacristy.
1t will be restored to its original ap-
pearance rs far as possible and one of
the objects of the Rev. Gerhard Ras-
mussen's coming trip to Muskego is
to secure from some of the old pio-
neers information as to what the in
terror arrangements were like. He
also hopes to secure the original bap-
tismal font. This was hewn out Of
a solid oak tree and was very rude
sort of font at the best, but highly
interesting, nevertheless. The font
was in existence few years ago and
Mr.. Rasmussen hopes to find it. He

nj, oil <ln
penses up to date and are very enthu-
siastic about the venerable building.
HalvOr N. Larsen knew more about
building than any Of the Muskego
pioneers, and he became the architect,
builder and superintendent of con-
struction. He was ably assisted by

nessen. Soren Bake and others. Those
were busy days in the forests Of Mus
kego in the winter Of 1874 when the
material for the church was taken
out and hauled to the Indian mound
on which 1t was decided that the
church should stand, as it was the
most commanding site in the settle
ment. The work was begun five years
after the first settler had made his ap.
pearance there.
The first clergyman to serve the con-
gregation was, Of course, Rev. c. l..
Clausen. Rev. III. A. Stub preached
his first sermon in America within its
walls in 1S4S and in July 1898. he eel
ebrated his semi-centennial Jubilee as
clergyman in America at Muskego,
but it was in the new church.

INTO ROWING BANDS.


tinue Depredations. @
Austin, Tex, March, IL. - Advice1
from Ortiz, State Of Senora, Mex, are
that the Indians have continued their
depredations to an alarming extent
during the past week, having ram
sacked great stretch Of territory and
done no little damage to several ham,
let's along the road between Potam
and TORN. The Mexican troops do
not seem to be able to cope with the
situation at the present writing, and it
is manifest that more men will be
needed to effectually suppress the up
risings. The Indians, who were oil
banded together about ten days ago
for the purpose, presumably of making
an attack upon the main forces of the
MeXicans as a point near TORN, have
again dispersed into rowing bands OF
some 200 or 300 each. and in this man
ner they are covering great range
of territory and doing more damage in
the way of marauding movements. 1t
is evident. however, that they are In
constant communication with one an
other, both by runners and signal fires.
as almost every night signal fires are
flashed from the mountains, indicating
the temporary camp of some of the In
dams. Owing to the unsettled and ex.

borhood, however, the Mexican troops

that matter they find great difficulty
in leaving the road during the day ow-
ing to the acres of prickly pear and

wade and which seriously interferes
with their progress. The Mexican
troops are very suspicious of the In
dams laying traps to massacre the en-
tire force. and do not show much in
clination to venture into the mountain
fastLesses. Several efforts have been
made to get small detachments through
to Potam. but without success, as the
Indians seem to be very plentiful in
that neighborhcod and are waging an
unusually bold warfare uron all troops
that come to the scene of action. The
Mexican government is puzzled to To-
cate the source from which the Indians
are securing their guns and ammuni-
ticn, as they seem to be receiving adj
ditional supplies of both almost week
