DEN MARK.
Copenhagen.

The government bureau of statistics
has now completed its official reports
on Denmarks crops for the year 1902.
1t shows that in spite of unusual cold
and Indictment weather conditions that
the crop far exceeded the one Of 1901
and that Denmark's soil is growing
richer, principally due to judicious Gull
tivation. In 1901 the total yield, in
Guiding small grains, hay and vegeta-
bles, amounted to a value of 39,900,O00
crowns. Last year the total yield
amounted to not less than 418,O0O,000
crowns If the total output Of 1902
be compared with that of twenty-f
years ago, there is an increase of 19O,-
100000 crowns in small grains only.
This handsome showing proves that
not only is the Danish soil unusually
rich, but that the Danish farmer is
scientifically cultivating his land, thus
enriching the soil every year.
A Swedish emigrant by the name of
Lars Springfield was robbed of 1000
crowns while stopping at Copenhagen
q few days ago EN- route to America.
He was induced to visit a cafe and
afterwards indulge in game of cards.
Suddenly his friends" left him saying
that they would return within short
time The emigrant returned to Swed-
en- and the Copenhagen police have
searched in vain for the robbers.
The population Of Copenhagen is in
creasing steadily. The last official sta
tistics show that the city, together with
it's suburbs, has now population Of
491,2 76 In 1890 there was a popula-
ton of 9S9. 131.
A disastrous fire visited Horsens
few days ago, destroying Hotel Hor-
sens, the largest building in the town
and several business houses. The loss
entailed is estimated $4,000 crowns.
Count Molke sold his Sorvad country
in Gtesing to his son, Count e.
Moltke, for 175,O00 crowns 1t is a
beautiful place and has for years been
in the hands Of Danish noblemen.
Justice L. Godskesen, of Aalborg,
died at his home In that city few
days ago, aged II years. He was q

siderable fortune.
