Mr.. Peter Lundberg was the subject
of pleasant surprise last Monday
evening, when about fifty members of
the church of which Mr.. Lundberg is
q faithful member Unexpectedly came
to his house to pay their respects to
him. Mr.. Lundberg has spent great

ing the work of building at the Swe-
dish Lutheran church property during
the past year and the mem bers of the
church wished to show him their ap-
probation of his work. Rev. Gustaf
Peterson presented Mr.. Lundberg on

lain, the colonial secretary, referred to
the hatred and jealousy of Great Brit
ain which is entertained abroad, and
denied that this was due to the exis-
tence of particularly wicked govern
ment.
This is no new thing in history"
he said. "and we must maintain our
splendid isolation, surrounded and sup
ported by our colonial kinsfolk."
While fully admitting the necessity
of finding new markets and keeping
abreast Of modern times and methods,
Mr.. Chamberlain saw no sign of inn
mediate and pressing danger to trade.
He said
During the last five years we have
enjoyed an absolutely unparalleled
condition of trade, and for the future
the prospects are exceedingly good"
The colonial secretary strongly de-
precated any action on the part of the
trades to restrict output and reduce
all workmen to a dead level of uledioc-
rity. In this connection the speaker
referred to the opinions of Senator
Hanna and President Schwab. of the
steel corporation on this subject.
