THE NEW sToRTHlNG.

Political Complexion Of Norway's Leg
islative Body-conservatives Have
Majority. II
Norways new storthing will have
LII members, an increase of 3. The
Conservatives will hold 60 seats, or a
clear majority Of 8. The socialists
have shown surprising growth in all
parts of the country, but have elected
but one member. and that one from
Finmarken. ..
The Liberals, or Venstre, who have
been in power for generation, gained
2 places in Finmarken, but have lost
% seats and are thereby reduced to
the minority party.
It is generally admitted that the
Socialists at the next election will be
factor of great Importance. Their
program is much the same as else
where: government control of profit
able industries, universal suffrage for
both men and women, old-age pensions
for all classes, adjustment of the mill
tary. system, referendum of all i'm
portant questions, adjustment of the
game laws" better public schools,
shorter working day enforced by law,
and various other reforms.
Christiania, which was the strong
hold Of the Venstre party, deserted it
wholly in the recent elections. giving
the Conservatives 1878 votes to the
Socialists 6,701 and to the Liberals
only 5,406.
The lone Socialist in the storthing
is Jorgen Berge, an; editor at Narvik.
He is Roman Catholic and is the
first person of that faith to sit in the

PLAYED A BOLD GAME.

Nerve Of a Railroad Superintendent

Did you ever see man in poker
game bet every cent he had on three
aces! Well, that is what w. 8. Carson,
superintendent Of the Missouri Pacific
terminals at Kansas City did. But the
stakes were bigger, probably, than
were ever played In poker game. He
bet seven locomotives and his job that
the Missouri Pacific bridge wouldn't go
out, and this in the face of the fact
that seventeen bridges across the Kaw
had already been washed away. And
he won.
Now, the Missouri Pacific has the
only bridge across the Kaw at that
place. When Mr.. Carson saw that his
company's bridge was likely to go the
way the others went he took a desper-
ate chance. He decided to weight the
bridge down with mogul locomotives.
Seven Of them, repres enting a value
of $685. were run out on the trem.

ABOUT PEOPLE AND THINGS.

So large is the women's docket of
crime in Boston this summer that the
experiment is being tried of holding
a separate court for them. Boston is
said to be the only city in the country
where the jurisdiction of women's
cases is held apart from that of men.
The experiment has proved highly
satisfactory-so much so that what
was begun as a necessity is likely, to
become q permanent feature. Boston
also has probation system for it's
women offenders, and it works we'll
Each morning before court opens one
of the two women probation officers
visits the cells and interviews the
prisoners. She obtains from each
woman her name, age, height, weight,
complexion, address, whether married
or single, number of children, birth
place, and the name of her parents
OF course, in many cases this informa-
ton Is all wrong. 1t is the custom
for the regular patrons of the House
of Detention to have aliases. One
woman has as many as thirty-two. and
1T is quite common for them to have
eighteen or nineteen. The probation
system has reclaimed many women.
The officers visit those who are out
on probation, investigating their con-
duct during this term. Every Wednes-.
day morning these women report in
court If they are arrested while on
probation they are usually sentenced.

No, 1t is not proper for you to go to

you should never do 1t, unless you are
