Tourists are now arriving at Chris
tiania and Bergen in large numbers.
and will gradually move towards
North Cape in order to get a. good view
of the midnight sun during the latter
part of the present month. So far
very few Englishmen have come, and
this principally owing to the coming
coronation festivities. A large number
of Germans are coming, and the Amer
leans are here i'll large numbers.
The shipping Of Bergen during the
last four years brought the owners a
net gain of more than ,40,00O,O00
crowns ($10, 72OOOO). At present, how
ever, about thirty steamers, aggregat-
ing nearly $4,000 tons, are laid up in
consequence of the stagnation Of ship
ping.
During the month of May there were
1,4G6 emigrants from Stavanger, which
breaks all former emigration records
from this section of the country. Last
year there were only about 700 emf
grants from Stavanger and vicinity
during the entire year.
On March 81 Norway's debt amount.
ed to 262, 100000 crowns. The nation
al debt has thus assumed proportions
which perhaps will be a source of
some alarm, owing to the present
slackneSS of industry.
Charles SENDER, who a few months
ago, made good his escape from Nor
way after forging checks in Christi
ania and other cities amounting to 90

Sydney, Australia.
The Gjoviks "cellulose" factory has
been sold at auction to Attorney Rasch
for $4,000 crowns. One of the high
bidders was E. G. Gjestvang of Stock

the property.
Egg shipments to Norway have been
greatly diminished during the past
three days. In 1897 eggs to the value
of 1,1S9,OOO crowns were imported; in
1899, $4,000 crowns and in 1901, H.
800.

HARTE'S EARLY DAYS.
Personal "reminiscences of the
Author by a Friend.
HARD AND FASTIDIOUS WORKER.

Noah Brooks, Who Knew Him In
California, Relates Some Interest
ing Anecdotes-Why He Failed to
+ Attend a Dinner In ChicagO-StO-
ries of His Debts.
Scores of writer's have become known
to me in the course of a long life, but l
have never known another so fastidi-
Gus and so laborious as Bret Harte:
says Noah Brooks in the New York
terials, the light and heat and ever
the adjustment of the furniture of the
writing room must be as he desired
otherwise he could not go on with his
work. Even when his environment was
all that he could wish there were times
when the divine aftlatus would not
come and the days work must be
abandoned My editorial rooms in San
Francisco were not far from his Sc
cluded den, and often, if he opened my
door late in the afternoon with pecul-
lar cloud on his face, l knew that he
had come to wait for me to go to din
ner with him, having given up the i'm
possible task of writing when the MOOD
was not on him. It's no use, Brooks"
he would say. "Everything goes wrong.
| cannot write a line. Let's have an
early dinner at Martinis." AS soon as
was ready we would go merrily of
to dine together, and, having recovered
his equanimity, he would stick to his
desk through the later hours Of the
night, slowly forging those master
pieces which cost him so dearly.
The night before Harte left CalifOr
MIA for New York a little party of US,
eight, all working writer's, met at
farewell dinner. It was one Of the YER
liable noctCs ambrOSian9. The talk
was intimate. heart to heart and alto
gether of the shop. Naturally Harte
was tie center of the little company,
ard he was never more fascinating
anG cOnlpaniOnable. Day was break
ing when the party dispersed and the
ties that bound Harte to California
were sLldered- Chicago had put in a
bid FIR tt author of THE Luck of
Roarin~ Camp" and a dinner was made

that /; clecE O: liberal figures or deed

his ''b;,d n->;nners." When l met Harte
in New Ic;A. asked him about the i'll
cident 49,. lie said: In Chicago

or the northeast side or the Lord knows

ton to a dinner in a hotel in the center
Of the city l expected that a guide
would be sent me. / was a stranger in
strange city. A carriage was not
easily to be obtained in the neighbour
hood where | was, and in utter ignO-
rance Of the way should take to reach
the hotel l waited for a guide until the
hour for dinner had passed and then
sat down, as your friend S. P. D. said
to you in California, 'en famille with
my family That's all there was to
it."
Meeting the late Samuel Bowles Of
Springfield in New York not long after
his own arrival, Harte said with glee,
Brooks is coming to New York to live,
and then he and l will found the So
ciety of Escaped Californians."
l had not been long in the city before
| l found that Harte had already in
| CURED many debts, chiefly for money
| borrowed. When l said to BOwles that
l was anxious on Harte's account that
a scandal should not come from this
condition of things, Bowles said, with
his good natured cynicism, "Well, it
does seem to me that there ought to be
enough rich men in New York to keep
Harte a-going." One rich man, bank
er and broker, with an ambition to be
considered a patron of the arts and
literature, made much of the new lit
erary lion, and from him Harte obtain
ed a considerable sum, $500 perhaps,
in small amounts, varying from S. to
$50 at a time. One New Years day
Harte. in as much wrath as he was
ever capable Of showing, spread before
me note from OuF friend Dives in
which the writer, who, by the way,
was not reckoned generous giver, re-
minded Harte that this was the season
Of the year when business men en-
deavOred to enter 8 new era with a
clean page in the ledger, and in order
to enable his friend H. to do that he
took the liberty OF returTang to him
sundry l o Us which his friend II.
had given him from time to time.
Dash his impudencev exclaimed the
do about it?' asked, with some
amusement "Going to do about it"'
he answered. with much emphasis on
the first word. Going! l have made
a new note for the full amount of these
and have sent it to him with an init
nation that I never allow pecuniary
matters to trespass on the sacred do
main of friendship" Poor Dives was
denied the satisfaction Of giving away
a bad debt.
1t would be grossly unjust to say
that Harte was a species Of Harold
Skimpole, deliberately making debts
that he did not intend to pay; he sin
cerely intended and expected to meet
all his financial obligations.
He accepted the role assigned him
without protest. Once. while we were
waiting Oh Broadway for a stage to
take him downtown. he said as the

United States and the dean of the
diplomatic corps at Washington. An
interesting story is told of the manner
in which the latter honor was achieved,
says the Philadelphia Public Ledger
Congress had passed the law allowing
the president to appoint ambassadors
to foreign countries after the latter had
appointed ambassadors to the United
States. AS soon as the diplomatic ap-
preparation bill containing this proviso
became law there was a race between
Great E1iitain and France to secure the
first ambassador at Washington. The
reason for this was that it meant that
the diplomat appointed first would be
the dean Of the diplomatic CORPS.
Great Britain announced her inten-!
tion first but France cabled Minister
Patenotre, her minister here then, that
he had been raised to the rank Of en-
bassadOr and that his credentials had
been mailed over. Great Britain was
not to be caught mapping, and, being
advised of what France had DONE the
British foreign Office cabled Sir Julian
his credentials as ambassador in full.
These were at once presented to the
state department, and Sir Julian be-
came the ranking ambassador and dean
Of the diplomatic corps, in which ca
pacity he convened the famous met
ing Of foreign ministers on April IA,
1898, to consider the propriety of TAX
ing action relative to the Spanish
American war; The home governments
promptly decided to take no action.

SEVENTEEN YEAR LOCUSTS
A City Forester Names Solution
Which Will Kill Pest.


Which Will Kill Pest.
John G. Lewis, city forester of Phil
adelphia, said recently that he was pre-
pared to fight the seventeen year To-
Gusts, and as far as the city squares
and parks are concerned he had no
fears for the result
Gas soon as the locusts appear" he
said, 1--WE will begin to spray all the
plants and trees in all the squares and
parks with a solution of paris green.
This, if used judicioNsly, will destroy
the pests.
II advise all persons who have gar
dens to use the same solution that we
propose to use. Take one pound of paris
green and dissolve it in 200 gallons Of
water, or proportionately, and spray it
on all bushes and trees when the To-
Gusts show themselves. A hand syringe
can be used with good results, or a
small air pump used by florists"
