TOWN OFF IN DATES.
Curious TanEIe in which sweden,
N. ", Finds itself by Use of Last
Years Almanac.

Almanacs scattered broadcast in the
town of Sweden, N. Y, with the month
of November printed from an old plate
have badly mixed up the entire pop
ulation. Supervisor Sutphin came 10
Rochester the other day to attend a
meeting of the board Of supervisors
under the impression that it was Fri
day. When convinced that November
21 this year came on Thursday he was
dumfounded 1t seems that the whole
town is day ahead.
Last Sunday all the stores in Sweden
were open under the impression that
1t was Saturday and the usual Satur-
day business rush took place. On Mon
day the people had attended worship
under the impression that it was Sun
day. Supervisor Sutphin is author
ity for the statement that on Sunday
he and the Baptist minister went fish
ing. He also states that there were
several husking bees, winding up with
big dance on Sunday night.
Rochester newspapers received nu-
merous complaints from Sweden sub
scribers on account of the papers be

ineomprehensible until Sweden's SUI
peryisor came to the city the other day
and explained the situation. He says

LEARNING TO RIDE.
baby of the Roosevelt Family Is
Being Given Lessons in Rid
Ing Pony.

There is absolutely nothing as
sumed in the love of President Roose-
velt's family for horsefiesh, and there
was never a prettier sight than the
other afternoon when Baby Quentin
was put on the back of the spotted
pony, held on by negro boy, and al
lowed to ride up and down the drives
and walks on the south front of the
white house lawn. Archibald showed
some inclination to have the pony
take a liVelier gait, but was kept
jogging behind the pair, while the
nurse, somewhat out of breath,
brought up the rear.
Archibald is already possessed of
the Roosevelt grace in riding and the
spotted pony is not new toy to him.
In fact. it is one of his pleasures to
ride about without being held, and
he shows wonderful skill for a little
boy. Quentin, too, showed rather
stubborn inclination, quite commend
able in so young a rough rider, to be
allowed to ride alone, but as his two
small legs stuck out over the round
sides of the pony and far too short
for a sure purchase, his protestations
ended by the negro boy holding fast
to his charge, but keeping up lively
trot TO satisfy the baby rider.
Sightseeing tourists often stop at
the fence Of the south front lawn to
watch the antics of the children, but
show no disposition to enter into
conversation with them or in any way
interfere with their privacy. The
camera fend stops about the park
now. but since the presidents we'll

TO MAKE WAR ON ANARCHISTS
European Powers Planning Conn
bine for the Purpose OF stamp
ing Out the Pest.

The Chicago Record Herald CORE
spondent at Berlin is able to state on
the most reliable authority that Ger
many and Russia are about to unite
in assembling an international con-
gress for the suppression Of anarchy
and anarchists. The invitation is in
the course of preparation, and will
probably be issued before the end of
the year.
While the assassination of President
Mckinley will be mentioned only in
ferentially in the circular call to the
nations, there is no doubt that the pro-
posed congress is the immediate result
of the wave of protest that swept
through the palaces and chancelleries
of Europe since the Buffalo tragedy,
The movement is supposed to be di-
rectly inspired by the kaiser and the
car. The place of meeting is left to
the choice of the participating govern
ments. Both the signatory powers

tries.
