NORWAY'S WINTER FUN.

Skess Furnish Not Only Sport but
Necessary Means of Travel.
1t is during the Norwegian winter
that the most characteristic sports In
that country hold sway. When the
fiords are frozen after the snow has
fallen, the water is covered with the
bright, shining ice. and like the gulls
during the summer, the Norwegian
boys glide about on their skates where,
in July and August, they had crossed
In sailing boats. But when the snow
covers mountain. valley, and ford
many feet deep, snow shocing, or ski
Looming, as 1t is called In Norway, be-
comes universal, not merely as a
sport. but also as necessary way Of
travelling.
The skees are made Of wood. gemr-
ally Of ash. 1t is the most suitable
wood for the purpose, but they can
also be made out Of pine, or birch, or
Of almost any wood in which the grain
runs straight, and which is not too
knotted. But woods like ash, which
Is both hard and flexible, are admira-
bly, adapted for skee-making. The
skees are some ten feet long and about
four inches broad, and taper up in
front In a graceful curve. A very slight
groove about half an inch wide runs
all along the middle Of the skee from
front to back, giving tendency to
keep 1t steady In one direction, and to
prevent 1t, to some extent, from slid
ing to one side. About an inch back
of the middle of the skee, a loop is
made out Of twisted willow, or, in re-
cent years, frequently out of leather
covered bamboo, forming a firm but
flexible support for the foot about two
inches back Of the toe. Another loop
Of leather-covered bamboo runs from
the base of the loop for the toes and
all around the heel. while one strap
combines the two sides Of this loop un-
der the foot. The skee-runner then
finishes the fastening by buckling a
strap over his instep.
This peculiar arrangement of loops
and straps allows the runner to move
his heel I'M a vertical direction so Tar
that he could, although with effort,
put his knee down to the skee In front
Of him, while his toes still remain In
the loop; but in horizontal direction
the foot Is arrested; the skee must fol-
low every small movement OF the foot
to the right or left.-St. Nicholas.

An industrious Hen.

A more or less truthful Australian
relates that he put an unusually large
porcelain egg in the nest of hen and
found that the next eggs she laid were
of increased size. Then he put goose
egg in the nest The hen laid an egg
just as large He was so pleased with
the scheme that he put whitewashed
football in the nest. When he went
the next time to search for eggs he
found one as big as football, but no
hen in sight. Securing the egg, he
saw engraved on 1t, by hen photog.

but I've done my best" Later he
found the hen inside the egg.

Treaties May SIumber in
Department OF
State.
THE ESENATORSEX

Washington, c.. Feb. 12.-The In
ternational Arbitration treaties, which
the senate yesterday ratified after
adopting the very amendment that the
president declared would nullify them
and which he urged should not be
done, will be forfeited to the state de-
partment tomorrow in the usual course
of routine business. There, If the pub
lie announcement of the policy of the
president is executed. they will be
permitted to die.
1t is not within the power OF the
president to withdraw them. He could
have done so before the final vote in
the senate, and it is no secret that he
would have done so, had he not firmly
believed that his letter of explanation
as to his wishes. sent to Senator Gull
lom, chairman of the foreign rela-
tions committee, and read 10 the sem
ators would result in preventing
amendment.
The president can refuse to submit
the conventions to the various interest
ed nations for concurrence in the SEN
ate amendment. This will be the
course pursued The senate fully rec
ognizes the executives right to so act.
The excitement prevailing in the
senate yesterday means much and will
not pass away quickly. II extended
to all senators without regard to party
and led to the decisive action taken at
the close of the debate The present
situation is characterized by all as
critical and intense. Its final deter
mination rests largely with the pres
ldent.
The sessions preceding the final vote
are described as the most intensely
dramatic in the memory of those who
have been senators for two decades.
The intensity of feeling, the earnest
ness of utterances. the unanimity of
sentiment have not prevailed on any
similar session during the last genera
tion. The criticism of the president
was virtually non-partsan. While all
the democrats voted to amend the
treaties all the Republicans but nine
did the same thing There were no
apparent differences in the manner of
expressing convictions that the presi-
dent was taking away the constitu-
tional rights of the senate.
The action of Senators Lodge,
Spooner and Foraker, all close friends
Of the president and his spokesmen on
the floor of the senate attracts un-
usual attention. All three recited the
friendship they feel for the president.
They told of their intimate relations.
All expressed keen regret that their
paths and consciences would not per-
nit them to sustain the president in
the pending matter. The vote in IA
Vor of amending, overwhelming as il
was, would have been materially in
creased had not many senators insist
ed upon respecting their general pairs
