Norwegian Politics To-day.
: Before the election of 1900 the liberal
party had placed on it's program the in
dependence of Norway, carried into effect
by the establishment of a separate Nor
wegian foreign office and separate con
sular service. By its acquiescence5 in the
Swedish proposal of Jan. Is, 1902, the
Norwegian liberal government had prac-
tically ignored the demand of the plat
form for a separate foreign office. The
appointment of the consular commission
presupposes status quo in: the foreign
office. Whether the extremists of the
party will suffer their pet measure to
die such an ignominious death is a ques-
ton for the future to solve. : But at pres
ent it seems relegated to the background.
And as to the consular question, the lib
erals here practically conceded that the
conservatives were right in insisting that
1t is not a question which Norway can
solve Independently of Sweden, and that
it is a question whose practical bearings
on diplomatic relations and business need
investigation and study before practical
measures are adopted. A few years ago
the party was entirely above such little
prosaic consideration as these. The plan
was to go ahead and act as If Sweden did
not exist at all: The party tried to act
accordingly and got stuck in: the mud and
has been sticking there ever since. To
get the country: out of this ,disgraceful
position the. party has been obliged to
accept the advice proffered by their de-
spised opponents. The great promises
made before elections have proven mere
wind-the time of disillusion has come.

The different Health Authorities seem
to have different ways Of renressing the

they have prosecuted the: grocers under
the general law and broken up the traffic.
In Missouri the sale of alum baking pow
der is actually prohibited by law. In
New York they seize the unWholesome
stuff and cast it into the river without
any discussion. The latter way is GER

Norwegian government. IS.
But the liberal party committed the sad
mistake of raising another issue before
this question was settled by advancing the
demand for separate Norwegian foreign
office, independent of that of Sweden, a
measure which in the opinion Of all
Swedes and Of great many Norwegians
would eventually bring about the disrup-
tion Of the union. While the Swedes on
sober consideration might have been will
ing to accede to the demand for sep
arate consular service, this new and
extravagantly impolitic demand united all
parties in Sweden in one unanimous pro-
test against Norwegian encroachments
and thus no real advance has been
made towards practical solution. But
the Russian scare has already borne
fruit in making the Swedes earnestly de-
sirous of an amicable adjustment of diff
culties with Norway and at the suggestion
of the Swedish minister for foreign Affairs
not long ago the king has appointed
commission to investigate and report on
the practical workings of a separate Nor
wegian consular service. This commits
sion consists of two Norwegians-Con-
sui General Christopherson and DR..

| Consul General Ameen and Ambassador
| Bildt
The appointment of such a commission
is prima facie evidence that the Swedes
no longer deny the right of Norway to .es-
tablish separate consular service. Thus

QUICKEST GAME ON RECORD.
And the sharpest Contest Of the
League series-cathoIie Union With
Cooley Pitching Blanked Dunhsms

The first shut-out in the local league
series and the closest game or the
season was played on Saturday, when
Catholic Union won 20 from Durham
Brothers. 1t was high grade profess
sional base ball from start to finish.
In only one inning did Durham
Brothers send more than three men
to bat, retiring regularly in one, two
three order. In the fourth, Allen
reached first on Kaine's error. the
only misplay on the Catholic Union
side. He stole second and went to
third on Stolte's single. Stolte pur-
posely placed himself in a position
where he would be likely to be caught
between the bases to give Allen an
opportunity to score, but the latter
was late in starting. and Bean threw
him out at the plate.
Catholic Unions first score came in
the fourth inning, when Dunleavy
reached first on Stolte's error, and
was advanced to second by Beans
single. Bean and Dunleavy then exc
cuted double steal and the little
| right fielder reached home on another
error by Stolte. In the seventh inn
ing Graves hit safely and stole second.

that Clune fouled the ball and called

passed Allen, Clune was enabled to

Clune was thrown out at the plate
and Guiheen struck out.

The post Office in Winchester was
burglarized early Tuesday morning.
The burglars first entered the Boston

delivery boxes in the post Office, put
ting them in a mail pouch, and car
ried them away. They blew open the
safe, smashing the door completely.
They found 81 in small change and
about Is cents in stamps, and some
registered letters, the value of which

heard and an alarm was soon given,
but the burglars had disappeared.
They stopped during the night at j.

Sam smaIps Remarkable Career.

sam SmalI's Remarkable Career
Rev. Sam Small has had a strange
career He was born July g. 1851, at
Knoxville, Tenn, and received his
primary education in that city, but
graduated from the high school in
New Orleans. To finish his educa-
ton he was sent to Emory and Henry
college in Virginia, and graduated
thence with high rank. Sans father
was a journalist, and in addition to
this was rich and influential. He
was superintendent Of the Southern
express company and president of the
Texas express company. The wealth
of his father proved Sans bane. He
was led into excuses, and spent mon
ey fast. The young man started out
in life as lawyer, and next became
a journalist. He was of a rowing dis
position and never stayed long in one
place, although his ability was very
marked. Taking up stenography. he
became an expert at it. He has lived
in most of our large cities and spent
some years in Europe, where his faith
er's wealth opened to him all avenues
of enjoyment. Under the nom de
plume of "Old ST" he won a reputa-
ton among literary men and became
an acknowledged master of negro dia-
lect humor. Physically he is not ro-
bust, but 1t is said of him that he
can do more work than those who
seem his superiors in physique. He
not infrequently used to work all
night. and this without apparent in
Jury to his delicate constitution
About Is years ago he changed his
mode of living. and under the preach
ing of the Rev. Sam" Jones pro
fessed conversion and became an
evangelist. He has travelled all over
the country and everywhere has at
tracted large audiences.
