Dr. Ibsen. is a Cabinet Min ister of His Majesty, King Oscars No-- wegian Government. He enjoys fame as an orator and is writer of distinction. MT. Brennan's original plan was to in- duce the playwright himself to visit this country but this project was abandoned owing to Ibsef's advanced age and falling health. The popularity of the Ibsen movement in America is attested by the three 1bsen companies now touring this country under Mir.

"The Great Northwest" In the Century

1.-THE Great Northwest In the Century.
Mr.. Ray Stannard Baker, one of the
most popular of the younger American
magazine writers, has just returned to
the East from a trip of several months
through the northwestern states, during
which he has been gathering material
for a series of articles on "The Great
Northwest" which will begin in the
March Century. The story of the
growth Of the cities, how the mighty
wheat farms are managed, the mining
industries, cattle raising-all will be
told in Mr.. Bakers crisp and pictur.
esque way, with striking illustrations
by Mr.. Edward L. Blumenschein, who
accompanied the writer on his journey.
The series will include articles on
The Conquest of the Forest" "The
Vitality of Mormonism," "Salmon
Fisheries, "rhe Day of the Rum" "a
vivid description OF the or ening of an
Indian reservation, yellowstone
Park" etc. The first article, which
will appear in the March Century, to
be issued February %, tells of the
striking things to be seen in Portland,
Spokane, Tacoma, Seattle and there
abouts.
Mr.. Bakers series on "The Great
Southwest" which appeared in The
Century last year, was nowhere more
highly appreciated than in the region
which it described, and it is believed
by the conductors of The Century that
the present series will add greatly to
the popularity of the magazine in the
Northwest. 1t will certainly set be-
fore Eastern readers, more thoroughly
and en~tcrtainingly than ever before,
the natural and industrial wonders of
that picturesque region.
