The London Observer says Great
Britain has agreed to maintain the
treaty Of 1855, which guarantees the
integrity Of Scandinavia so far as Nor
way is concerned, on condition that a
monarchy be established. The paper
adds that the candidature Of Prince
Charles of Denmark to the Norwegian
throne has been virtually accepted by
all parties. >.s<.5 49,. . 4
A. Danish author has written
lengthy newspaper article to prove
that a Swedish seaman named Axel
Roos is entitled to the throne OF Nor
way. The article bristies with geneo-
logical tables to show that Mr. Roos is
descendant of the kings that ruled
Norway long before the establishment
OF the Kalmar union. But as the
kaiserin of Germany also is a descend
ant of those kings, the author is will
ing to let = German prince have the
Norwegian throne, because he could
lebd more dignity to the position than
could Mr.. Roos.
DR.. K Stjerna caused sensation
among the scientists by a lecture
which he gave before the Society Urd
in Stockholm. It is we'll known that
valuable objects Of different kinds
have been found in great number of
burial mounds in southern Sweden
and in Upland. 1t has been supposed
that these objects were sacrifices to the
gods. This theory is denied by DR..
Stjerna- He claims that they were in
tended to follow the dead to another
life. But as only the souls of the OBJ
jects could follow the dead the objects
were carefully crushed, SO that their
souls might be liberated. This, says
Dr. Stjerna, is the reason why the OBJ
jects found in ancient tombs are
broken.
The Swedes and the Norwegians
have carried on regular union cam
paign in the English press Prof.
Nansen started the ball in favor of the
Norwegians. and he was soon followed
by DR.: S. Hedin, Swede. Later in,
the game both Nansen and Brakstad
were kept pretty busy advocating the
cause of the Norwegians, and Prof.
Hjarue and Capt Wallenb.rg went to
England to counterfeit their influence.
Both parties think they did very we'll,
each claiming to have corrected grave
misstatements made by the other
party
