the language of the Supreme court of
the United State in 1872, u. S., page 1873.
There is not a state in the Union which
has not a constitutional provision en-
titling persons charged with crime to
a trial by jury, and yet, from time inn
mortal, the practice has been to try
persons charged with petty offences
before a police magistrate who not
only passes upon the question OF guilt
but meteS out the proper punishment.
This has never been treated as an
infraction of the constitution, through
technically a person may in this way,
be deprived of this liberty without
the intervention of jury and Callan

authority for this position
In support of his various contentious

THE OLD MORSE BLOOD SMOKES.
But il is Believed that War Between
Sweden and Norway May be
Yet Averted.
fRv the Associated Press. }

London. Sept 14.-Reports received
from Copenhagen tonight say that
some of the powers are intervening
to secure 4 peaceful settlement of the
difficulties between Sweden and Nor
way. No authoritative account has
yet been issued regarding the progress
at Karlated of the negotiations be-
tween the Swedish and Norwegian
Both the Swedish. and
Norwegian papers regard the case as
acute. The Swedish papers even
talk of an ultimatum and preparation
Of mobilization.
Although the situation between the
two countries is strained. it is not be-
lieVed it will end in war. A Chris
tfana paper asserts that Norway
would gladly accept either arbitration
or mediation as the Norwegian gov
ernment has a sincere desire to effect
an understanding with Sweden.
London, Sept. 14.-Dr. Nansen, the
arctic explorer. who recently has been
so active in Norwegian politics, and
Captain Wallenherg, a member of the
Swedish Riksdag. who are both i'm
London. declared today that their re-
spective countries desired nothing but
a peaceful outcome of the present
crisis and appeared to be hopeful of a
satisfactory outcome of the negotia-
lions. Both admitted that the que1-
ton of the demolition of the forts
would be the only possible cause OF a
rupture.
DIR. Nansen said Norway was willing
to give up the new forts near the
frontier but strenuously opposed the
demand that portions of the old fort
resses of Fredriksten and Kongsvin-
ger should be demolished, leaving
nothing but historic ruins. This
question, which is now before the con-
ference, Norway regards as consttut-
ing a critical stage as Norway would
sooner fight than give up the old
fortreSseS.

From the Architectural Record.
The proposal brought forward by Justice
Harlan at the General Assembly OF the
Presbyterian Church this year. that the
Presbyterians should build in Washington a
great cathedral church, has the significance
of further evidencing the general and grow
ing appreciation of Washington as the cap
ital Of the nation in more than the narrow
political sense. Methodsts, Roman Catho-
lies and Episcopalians are already concen-
trating ecclesiastical and educational en-
terprises there. Great laboratories, univer-
stiles. colleges, scientific collections and
churches are gathering in Washington, as
well as the great office buildings for public
administration. 1t Is becoming more and
more of a winter residence for the intel
lectual class and the leisure class Of the
