The StorthinR will, il necessary,
defend the step taken by force of
arms.
At it's meeting Wednesday evening
tho StorthinR adopted proclamation
to the Norwegian people in which is
given detailed account Of the events
preceding the passing OF the resolu-
ton. This proclamation concludes as
follows:
THE Storthing hopes that the Nor
wegian people will succeed in livir g
in peace and on good terms with all.
and not the least with the Swedish
people. to whom we are linked by so
many natural ties.
THE Storthing is sure that the
peopleI will join with 1t and with
the government in maintaining the
full independence of Norway and with
tirmness aud dignitied tranquility sub
nit to the necessary sacrifices; and il
is further sure that all subjects will
fully respect all ordinances and pre-.
scriptions from the government.
CAUSE OF TROUBLE.
The dissolution of the union be-.
tween Sweden and Norway has been
pending for some time, and had its
growth fin tie desire, which grew
strongers-as time passed, for the es-
tablishment of separate consular sys-
TENS for the two countries. King
Oscari recently vetoed at Stockholm
the measure presented to him by the
council of state. providing for seperate
consular representation, and the Nor
wegians maintained that the kiLg by
so doing. and partly by his absence
from Norway, had suspended his
rights aud duties as King of Norway.
one of the causes for the desire in
Sw edentands Norway for seperate con-
sular systems was the fact that Sweden
is protectionist and Norway is for free
trade, .and also because Of Norway S
more extensive sea trade and other
Emergencies OF commercial interest.
The consular bill was designed TO
omen the whole question of foreign
affairs, while NORWAY desired to man.
age independently of Sweden.
Sweden aud Nnrwav have been
united under one crown since Novem-
Der 4, 1914. The common affairs of
the two countries were decided upon
in council of state composed OF
Swedes and!. Norwegian. The king
had the right to declare war aud make
peace only after consulting the council
of state.

HOLDS UNIQUE POST.
ALEXANDRA, FOR BUSINESS
PURPOSES, NOT MARRIED.
Queen Of England Cannot Sign Stats
Papers-If Edward Died 1t Would
Not Be Treason to Plot
Against Her.

London-Great interest was aroused
recently by the circumstance that in
a grave national crisis, when the king
was for the moment inaccessible, the
ministers of state were summoned to
the presence of Queen Alexandra for
consultation, with, as was generally
understood, most satisfactory results
This was quite a new departure TO,
the present reign.
OF course, Queen Victoria played this
sovereign part constantly, but her late
majesty was the head of the state,
and it was the proper course for heI
to pursue. Except when considered AS
part Of the king and sovereign Queen
Alexandra is not the head of the
state. She enjoys a position of hel
own which is absolutely unique. While
1t differs from that of any other lady
married or single, or of any rank, IN
some material ways it is also differ,
ent from that of previous queen con-
sorts.
One of the most curious and inter
ssting provisions in the law and GUS
toms of the state is that the queen is
for private business purposes not re-
garded as a married lady at all She
Is the only lady in Great Britain who
does not come within the scope of the
married woman's property act.
The principle of the law is that the
king Is entirely different from all
other married men, and that his time
Is too fully taken up with the affairs
of state for him to have any left to
devote to domestic matters, and that,
therefore, the whole management of
the queens private business matters
must devolve upon her majesty singly,
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1905-06-10

(Consort of King Edward of England
Who Holds Queer Position)
and that no responsibility whatever
in respect to them rests upon the
king.
Therefore, II such thing could be
imagined as the queen contracting
debts in her husbands name, the
king would not be responsible for
them, as any other husband would be-,
unless he had given due notice to
tradesmen and all others concerned
that he would for the future decline
to settle all such accounts.
IL the king contracted debts, the law
which says that his majesty can do
no wrong would prevent anybody from
suing him for recovery to the amount
due, hut no such protection is granted
to the queen, who could be proceeded
against in the ordinary manner. She
has her own attorney general and So
licitor general to represent her in all
legal matters, though, of course, ex-
cept for ordinary private purposes.
their services are scarcely ever needed
While the constitution is glad to
recognize the queen as part of the
monarchy, it cannot lose sight of the
fact that after all her position is linn
tied to that of queen consort, and,
therefore, she is in a large sense one
of his majesty's subjects, and, in GER
tain cases, which there is no human
possibility of occurring in these times,
she would be treated as a subject. But
in other respects she is accorded priv
ileges by the realm which are given
to no other person except the king.
Particularly there is no question of
high treason. 1t is generally under
stood that the king is the only person
whom it is high treason to plot
against, but it would be high treason
also to plot against Queen Alexandra.
The signature Edward Rex" is at
tached TO all state documents of such
Importance as to demand it. But IN
no circumstance whatever would the
corresponding one, Alexandra Re-
gina be allowed to be attached. eth
err in conjunction with that of his ma
jesty or without it. If it should hap
pen that the queen should survive the
king, many of the privileges which she
at present possesses would be with
drawn from her, only nominally IN
some cases, but actually in others,
whilst constitutional law provides
that some curious restrictions shall be
placed upon her 1t would be no
longer high treason to plot against
her, and it is held by at least one
high authority that she could marry
again if she wished to do so without
the especial license and permission of
the kings successor.

PADEREwsKI FORCED TO CAM
Gel ENGAGEMENTS.
illness May Still Hands of One of
Greatest Pianists World Has
Ever Known-Music and
Millions Linked.

New York-Ignace Paderewskj, mu-
stefan and millionaire, suddenly termin-
nted his American tour recently, and re-
turned to Europe for rest in Switzer-
land. Threatened with paralysis, this
greatest of living pianists, whose
genius has been unsurpassed since the
days of Chopin and List, was obliged
TO cancel his American engagements
and retire from the practice of his art,
at least temporarily. And there is a
possibility that this great master of the
piano who has won such unqualified
praise from every critic, and who has
entirely captured the hearts of his
American audiences, may never again
reveal to them the wonders Of the best
In music.
Paderewski is rare example of
present day suecess-a great artist and
a rich man. His genius, like that OF so
many musicians, has been precocious.
He is now but As years of age. At % he

as a man of very wide culture, a pol
ished and genial companion, brilliant in
table talk and thoroughly alive to af-
fairs of worldly import.
People who have the habit of inquir-
Eng as to the monetary value of the life
Of great artist like Paderewski are al
ready asking the question: What rec
ompense could he demand from a per-
son or persons who deprived him Of his
immense earning capacity as the first
pianist OF his age? Supposing that
Paderewski as the result of his accident
was no longer able to play, could he re-
cover a sum sufficient to reimburse him
for his lost earnings? One of his close
business associates estimates that IS 900
q concert would be an exceedingly con-
sentative estimate of his profits. This.
il is easy to understand, means the i'm
mense sum Of S1,ll4,000 for a single
years work.
Assuming that he would live to be
20, he would have to sue for something
like $50 COOS 900, and this would not in
clade his earnings from his compost
tiOns. If Paderewski should establish
that by reason of the negligence of the
railroad company and without any con-
tributory negligence on his part he sus-
tanned injuries, then the measure of
damages would be according to his earn
ing capacity at the time Such a suit
would, if successfully prosecuted, send
almost any railroad company in the
country into the hands of a receiver.
Additional evidence of the monetary
value of Paderewski's life is adduced by
the fact that he is fairly haunted by life
insurance agents who wish TO carry"
him whenever he is in this country.
His ordinary policies. written in four
companies in Russia and Poland. aggre-
gate more than 100000, and he carries
three accident policies in London com
panies. He is good risk" because his
habits are good. He usually retires at
three O'Clock in the morning and sleeps
until one. After bath and light break
fast he reads the papers, disposes Of his
correspondence and then practices on
the piano until the hour of his concert.
Like many other men in the public
eye, Paderewsh is pestered for his au-
tograph- He is willing to give it, but he
charges 81 every time he writes his
name, 81 if the applicant desires a few
bars of original music from his pen.
Hundreds Of these applications reach
him every day and the money received
is turned into a fund for the erection
of a statue of Chopin in Warsaw, per
mission for the building of which has
been obtained from the Russian gov
eminent.
Nine. Paderewski was the widow OF
Gorski a Polish yiolinist of great celeb
rity. and married the pianist in 1893
since which time they have been one
Of the most devoted couples in profess
sional life.
Music and millions are linked in the
life of Paderewski but should he be in
capacitated for playing as the result of
his recent accident the loss to the world
of a master could not be compensated in
