NORWAY,

, NOnVvAI.
1t is openly stated in the press that
three of the Socialists elected to the
coming storthing have been far from
exemplary citizens in the past.
Dagmar Hansen, noted Danish
ballet danceuse, has stirred up much
bad blood in Kristiania. The etheca]
society urged the police to stop her
performances, and the dean of the
diocese of Kristiania made an earnest
appeal to the public on the same SUBJ
ject. Even the press is opposed to
the woman and her traffic, one paper
calling her "the unpleasant phenom.
enon from Denmark" The great
public also seems to have found the
performances too coarse for decent
enjoyment.
Ten persons were burnt to death in
the fire in Kristiania which has al.
ready been mentioned under this
heading.
A new railway track was opened
for traffic between Kristiania and
Lillestrommen Oct. 1. This makes
the first double-track railway in
Norway.
The next storthing will consist OF
63 Rightists and Moderates and 81
Leftists and Socialists.
Kristiania, Sept. 22.-The queen ar.

A large crowd of people had gathered
at the station.
The Leftists, or administration par
ty, are between the devil and the deep
sea. To the right they have the vic.

have the compact and growing mass
of the Socialists. Such isAthe situa,

Several days ago James Collins q
railroad laborer, went into a saloon
run byJ. johnson, in Minneapolis and
left package with johnson, which
Collins said contained large sum of
money. he told johnson that he was
heavy drinker and was afraid that
he might die, and that if he did not
show up for the money to notify Mrs.
J. W. Hearne of Saltwater. +
johnson took the package, thinking
the man was slightly demented, but
was willing to humor him.
Saturday night man claiming to
be ). w. Hearne appeared at the cent
tral police station ard wanted an Off
Ger to go with him to saloon to wit
ness the payment of a certain sum of
money to him by the saloonkeeper.

his presence johnson handed over a
package containing $4,000 to Hearne.

hrium tremens in the city hospital. 1t

Minnesotas Oldest Church.
The fftieth anniversary of the build
ing OF the St. Peters church at Men
dota was celebrated with due ceremo-
ny. 1t is the first permanent church
erected in what is now Minnesota. Re-
plete with historic memories, it recalls
the days when Mendoza was the me-
tropolis of the Northwest, and st.
Paul the suburb. Old settlers, some
OF them among the builders of the his
toric old church, were present at the
ceremonies, their faces beaming with
pride at the achievements commemo-
rated.
1t was great day for Mendoza. The
members of the congregation gathered
from miles around. The picturesque
old village was enlivened by the
crowds which thronged about the old
church. Several Of the former pastors
of the church were there. A dozen
neighboring priests assisted Mgr. Os-
ter, tbs pastor, in the celebration of an
event which has unique significance
to the Catholics of Minnesota and par
ticularly of the region which was once
included in the parish of st. Peters,

was burned near st. Joseph, and an g.
months'-old child of the family was
burned to death. Both PARENTS were

Many members of the ecclesiastical
council spoke in vein of sadness
when they discussed the proposition
to abolish the diocese of Kalmar, but
their loyalty to the government was
so great that the proposition was en-
dorsed without dissenting vote.
A public subscription has been

Froding, the great lyric poet whose
mental condition renders him unfit
for literary work, and the result is
all that could be wished for.
A number of prominent citizens of
Malmo are engaged in organizing a

r. Ijader, missionary whose name
often may be seen in the newspapers,
is going to make a trip to America.
In his farewell sermon he stated that
after his return to Sweden he would
offer his services as preacher to all
religious bodies, but if his offer is
not accepted he will build a church
of his own.
A Jewish synagogue was dedicated
at Malmo sept. 20. The building is a
perfect square. There are seats for
1856 men on the floor and for Y
women in the gallery. The almemor,
or platforms, is large enough to &C.
commodate ten scribes.
An Italian who happened to stop
over night at Grand Hotel, Gothen-
burg, while Queen Dowager Margheri-
ia was staying there gave rise to a
great disturbance. 1t was rumored
that he had come there to assassinate
: her, and an extra force of policemen
and detectives were ordered to the
hotel to prevent foul play. Some OF
the employees at the hotel were so
scared that they sought shelter out
side of the hotel during the night.

Farmers Organize.

The Minnesota Farmers Exchange is
the name selected by subcommittee
on bylaws appointed by twenty dele
gates consisting of farmers, who met
at the office of Gov S. r. Van SAINT to
form permanent state organization.
The committee consisting of C. E. Jack
son and E. R. Jackson of Buckman,
w. S. Wetherston of West Concord and
j. P. Carey of Glencoe, was appointed,
and decided on the name.
The farmers seek to form an organi-
zation that will own and operate grain
elevators, storage plants, canning
factories, stock yards, packing houses
and banks. The plan is to send the
raw produce to be finished in the mills
of the exchange and to be sold by the
exchange to the best possible markets.

There must be a valid
reason why customers

Rising Sun to do their
Spring Shopping.
As the town is not as
large as some others, per-
sons not acquainted with

may wonder why:
However when a visit
is made, and a stroll is
taken through the eight
floors of our two buildings,
the reason is at once sug-
gested and then the prices
are learned, and intelli-
gent comparisons made,
the wonder is, why every
body does not go to the
place. A little more in
formation is all that is
needed.
We do not propose to
say, we are selling one

OF the insect--the subject chosen for the
lecture Of the afternoon was Stories

speaker was Miss Mary c. Dickerson OF

In a charming conversational wav Miss
Dickerson told her hearers OF some OF
our common birds. their haunts and their
habits, their peculiar instinct in the man
ner and ways of protecting their young
and the fashion in which they build their
nests
In this connection Miss Dickerson dwelt
upon such varieties OF birds as the quail.
the king bird, the or1ole. blue bird robin
and others. Passing from the stories of
the birds the speaker next took up the
tree toad and the frog and enlarged at
length upon the various species and their
habits. FINALLY Miss Dickerson dwelt up-
on the caterpillar the butterfly and the
common meadow grasshopper and as she
dvelt so interestingly on these familiar
things ~ earth she certainly aroused q
feeling OF renewed interest. In the minds
of her hearers for these lowest forms of
