NORWAY'S KING is
ASKED TO RESIGN

OHRISTIANIA, Norway, June r.
The Norwegian Parliament today vo-
ted unanimously to dissolve the union
which has existed for many years be-
tween Norway aud Sweden. This ac-
tion followed the refusal of King Oscar
to sanction the bill recently passed by
the Parliament providing for separate
consular service for Norway,a bone of
contention between the countries for a
long time.
The present government will tempo
rarily assume the rights which the
King has exercised.
The parliament also adopted an ad
dress to the King, declaring that no
ill will was entertained against him.
notifying him of the action taken and
asking the King to allow some prince
Of the Bernadotte house to assume the
Norwegian Drown.
At the beginning of the session the
governments officials informed the par.
lament that they had decided to re-
linquish Office from today. The par
Lament thereupon unanimously adopt.
ed this resolution:
Whereas, his Majesty, the King has
declared himself unable to establish q
new government for the country. and
Whereas, the constitutional regal
power thus becomes imperative.
1.-THE parliament authorizes the mem
bers Of the council of state, who re-
tired today to exercise until further
notice as the Norwegian government,
the power appertaining to the King,
In accordance with Norway's oonstitu-
tion and existing laws, with those
changes which are necessitated by the
fact that the union with Sweden un-
der one King is dissolved in conse-
quence Of the King having ceased to
act as the Norwegian King"
The belief is general that King Oscar
will yield and grant the demand. If
he does agree and appoint prince of
the throne Of Barnadotte as requested,
1t Is thought possible that he will se-
leot prince Gustave Adolphe son of the
crown Prince Gustave, who is to be
married to the Princess Margaret of
Connaught. on June 10.
BY doing this. the two countries
would again be united when Gustave
Adolphe mounts the throne of Sweden
In succession to his father.

bishop SHANAHAN'S
VISIT TO Rune

The object of my visit to Rome was
to make an official report of the state
of the diocese.
Every bishop in the world is requir-
ed to visit Rome. at least every ten
years. and on that occasion to submit
in writing a detailed account of the
financial and religious condition of the
parishes within his Jurisdiction, and
to pay his respects to the Pope, tine
head Of the church. This practice dates
back to the earliest ages of Christian
ity.
The Congregation OF the Propaganda,
standing committee composed Of
cardinals, with Cardinal Gotti as chair
man, receives these reports aud audits
them. The intimate knowledge which
this committee possesses Of the geo.
graphy. the religions. social and eoo-
nomic conditions of America, is truly
marvellous. The bishop who visits
Rome believing that the submission of
his report il mere perfunotory affair
finds himself most disagreeably disil.
lusioned.
Considerable court etiquette has to
be observed ON the occasion of bish-
ops visit to the Pope, though it has
been considerably modified in recent
times.
The bishop attired in his eoolesiastio.

purple belt and fariola (an outfit much
resembling the graduating costume
worn at our college commencements). i.

time set for the audience. At the main
entrance,a file of Swiss guards, attired
in the picturesque uniform designed
by Michael Angelo, awaits him, and
salutes him as he enters the grand
stairway which leads to the Pope g
| apartments.
Esquires, clad in the court costumes
of the middle ages receive him at the
landing, and escort him from one
magnificent hall to another. as far as
the throne room. Here the former
Popes held their audiences: but the
present Pope, who is more democratic @
than many of his predecessors, receives
his visitors in his own sitting room. a
little farther on-a room which is
! quite devoid of costly and luxurious
appointments.
On entering this room His Holiness
arose to receive me, aud arranged a
chair near his own at his writing desk.
He is man of medium height, ap-
parently about fifty years of age. though
he is in reality sixty five. He was
most cordial and expressed himself in
the warmest and most complimentary
terms about the United States and her
people.
gave him brief summary of the
state of religion in the diocese. told
him of the new cathedral at Harris
burg which will some day rival the
best churches in Europe, and then re-
ceived his apostolic blessing on the
clergy and laity of the diocese.
By this lad limina" visit. as it il
called, the bishops are brought into
direct relation with the rulers of the
Catholic Church; they become person
ally acquainted with it's head, they
offer their prayers at the tomb of the
apostles. and tney are enabled to ex.
anime and admire those fam GUS basil.
ioas which have made "The City OF
the Soul" celebrated throughout the

TIRE SEVENTEEN
YEAR LOCUSTS

The advance guard of an immense
swarm Of seventeen year locusts" is
predicted for June by H. Gnrman, of
Lexington. Ky., state etymologist.
The territory over which the wing
ed host will spread. says Professor Gar
man. embraces West Virginia. Ken
tucky, Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama,
Georgia. Missouri, Illinois. Ohio. In
diana, Pennsylvania and the forests Of
New York. This means the devasta-
tion of fruit trees and young forest
trees in those states. The main body
will arrive next year.
When the last brood swept ovei the
country seventeen years ago. the fe-
males deposited their eggs in the twigs
of the fruit and other suorulent trees
by piercing the outer bark and laying
eggs in cavity near the pith. In a
short time the eggs Matched and the
resulting caterpillars fell to the ground
They furrowed into the earth and liv.

they sucked from them for sixteen

| Popular interest in the appearance
of these insects which are seen only
once In seventeen yenrs, is revived By
Professor Garman's statement, and the
superstitious declare that their ap'
pearance at this time means the be
ginning or the ending of some big war.

DANVILLB DEFEATS
BUNKER Hill

The Bunker Hill team of Shamokin
made its first appearance on the local
diamond Saturday afternoon and was
defeated by the Danvllle A. A. by q
score Of 8 to Q. The weather was all
that could be desired for base ball, and
large crowd was expected to turn
out. but only a fair-sized audience
witnessed the contest. which proved
to be the genuine article of base ball
from start to finish. Edgar and Nc
Cloud did the battery work for the
home team and it was we'll done. as
the score shows.
Only four safe hits were made of
McCloud, who pitched Q winning game
throughout and did not allow the Wis
itors hit or run until the seventh in
ming when with two men out and two
strikes on the batter, Ootaleskie sue
oeeded in landing one safe. which be-
ing followed by another hit and an
error resulted In the scoring of the
first run BY the visitors. Two hits in
the ninth resulted in another run for
the visitors and the game ended with
only two to their credit
Gosh opened for the home team with
a we'll placed single, which. combined
with another hit, q stolen base. and
an error or two by the visitors result
ed in three runs for the locals in the
first inning. after which the hits and
runs came slow. although the locals
succeeded in scoring eight runs. Deem
showed remarkable skill with the bat.
securing two hits. and each time at bat
drove the ball too far out field. giving
the outfielders plenty to do. -
The home players again proved their
ability to furnish the real thing and
play winning ball. The light attend
anoe may have been due to the fact
that the bridge is still closed to con-
veyanoes, as many former patrons were
conspicuous by their absence. 1t is the
intention of some of our liverymen to
run hacks at fve cent fa-e to the par K
on the opening of the new bridge. In
former years it was claimed that five
cent fares did not pay on account Of
delay in crossing the old bridge where
teams were compelled to walk. but
things are different now. and time lost
elsewhere can be more than made up
on the bridge. The management will
continue to furnish strong attractions
and feel sure their efforts will be ap.
preoiated by the local lovers of the
game. Below we give the score:

A Bad Sign.

School insubordinstion, and the
tendency to rowdyism on the p,rt of
pupils attending our schools, are be-
coming unpleasant and disquieting fea-
lures of the times. When the boys, start
ing out in life, display an unruly dis
position there is discouraRing prospect
of their becoming orderly citizens.
These remarks are iNluced by an in
cident connected with the recent COM
mencement at the Shamoxin High
School. A member Of the graduating
class was suspended for some act which
the school authorities no doubt cor
reotly regarded as calling for merited
reproof, whereupon the whole class.

1t would be mp ,rdonable weakness

ON the part of the school board is de-
