TO CHECK EMIGRATION.

Swedish Officials Issuing Circulars De-
crying America.
AS a sample of what is being done
in Sweden to- prevent emigration, it
may be mentioned that Gov. Douglas
of Lindkoping province has recently
sent to the ministers and communal
chairmen within the province a cir
cular letter regarding emigration, to-
gether with a pamphlet entitled How
Our People Have It Out There" in
which it is represented that among the
principal causes of the great dimen-
sions of the emigration to America has
assumed is the incorrect understand
ing by the emigrants of the conditions
prevailing in this country, principally
formed by reports given by persons To-
Gated here or visitors to Sweden.
These reports, it is claimed, lay more
stress upon the advantages than the
disadvantages, and. fail to refer to
those persons who are unsuccessful
and succumb. =.

Norweqians Look for Coal and for
Tourist Routes.
Engineers Faugen and Falsting of
Bergen have gone to Spitzbergen to
survey the coal fields. They have with
them fifteen men and will prospect in
scientific manner. Faugen has had
ten years experience in the English
coal fields, and is believed to be Well
qualified for the work. The expedi-
ton is backed by English and Norwe-
gian capital. The famous Arctic skip
per, Capt. Zakariassen, is master of
the vessel which will explore the coast
while the prospecting is going on.
Engineer Falsting will Investigate par
ticularly as to the possibility of open
ing Spitzbergen to tourists. Vessels
already make the islands, but the trav-
elers want to see still more of the
frozen North, and Mr.. Falsting will
look for harbors and favorable landing
places, so that it will be possible to
make an extended cruise through the
archipelago.

NOT FOR RUssiA's Benefit.
6jornstierne Bjornson and Proposed
Open Port for Russia.

Bjornstierne Bjornson and Proposed
Open Port for Russia.
Bjornstjerne Bjornson has written
to the Norwegian paper Morgenbladet,
denying the story that he had ever
been willing to give Russia port. He
says he wanted Russia to open port
and railway for Russian territory
goods, but on condition that both rail-
way and port remain the property of
Norway; that he was willing to Sc
cure from Russia entrance to the sea.
He concludes: 1--WE have now done
our part of the work, and with that the
SANDER ought to be too old to be re-
peated."
The paper, in lengthy article,
points out that this is somewhat diff
ferent from what Bjornson originally
meant, and that Scandinavia has GER
tainly not constructed the Gellivare-
Ofoten railway for the accommodation
of Russia, but rather that considera-
ton of the latter possibility operated
against the building of the line.
Bjornson has been made knight of
the first class of the Order Of Vasa by
King Oscar.

Those Mules at Garrjsons.

Now that Mrs. Fish's team of mules
LAS passed into social history, carping
folk may say that the driving of mules
was not original with her. Almost a
year ago the news was flashed under
the Atlantic that Madame Rejane, the
actress, had driven pair of Havana
mules in the Champs. Elysees. On
this drive she wore Spanish turban
and a red and black frock, and the
the mules were caparisoned elaborate
ly. Their ears were trimmed with red
silk balls and their shaggy brown
coats were covered with red mosquito
netting. The mules were =: hard to
manage and Rejane paid for her expe-
rience with blisters on her shell pink
palms. The mule cart was supposed
to go one better the zebra tandem of

The Butcher and His Hat.

IT always thought it paid to be polite
until I got into this business" re-
marked a prosperous retail butcher,
but find that it costs me about $25
a year. My trade is with nice people,
and when fashionable women come
into the shop I have to tip my hat to
them. A butchers fingers are always
more or less greasy from handling the
meat, and in about a month a new hat
is no longer fit to wear. Grease is
about the only thing that won't come
out Of a derby, and will be the hat
ters best customer until the weather
grows warm and will be able to go
bareheaded."- York Times.

AMERICAN ARTISTS.
First One Came From Sweden Way
Back in 1711.

First One Came From Sweden Way
Back in 1711.
Gustaf Hesselius was the first artist
to land in America, and his son, John
Hasselius, was the first native born
American artist. This is the dictum of
Charles Hart, a. recognized authority,
who thus robs John Watson of the first
named honor and Benjamin West Of
the second. The elder Hesselius
came to America from Sweden in I'LL
with his brother Andreas, who was a
clergyman.
Hesselius was commissioned to paint
an altar piece and Bible scenes for St..
Barnabas church in Maryland. The
church was afterwards destroyed and
the paintings were lost. The histori-
cal society of Pennsylvania, however,
possesses two of his paintings, &C.
traits of himself and. his wife, Lydia
Mr.. Hart is of the opinion that many
old picturees still preserved are by
him.
John Hesselius was painter of
miniatures, many Of which are still in
existence. He was member of the
select Philadelphia Dancing associa-
ton In 1853 he married Mrs. Henry
Woodward of Annapolis, where they
afterward lived. In the early records
he seems to have been considered an
Englishman.
The elder Hesselius was pupil of
Sir Godfrey Kneller, the English art
list. The statements of Mr.. Hart re-
garding these early American artists
is substantiated by the family chron-
icles of Wertmueller, Swedish artist
who came to American in 1894. He
painted a portrait of George Washing
ton. In 1901 he married grand
daughter of Gustaf Hesselius.
