An American Woman In Sweden.

Mrs. Velma Swanston Howard, the
writer, at present represents Americans
in Sweden. She is Swedish by birth,
American by bringing up. She has
spent considerable time in Sweden OF
recent years and has written much
here TO acquaint Americans with her
native land. Some of her articles at
the time of the separation of Norway
from Sweden were called to the at
tention of King Oscar himself and
pleased him greatly. Recently at
Stockholm the king granted news
paper interview to Mrs Howard, treat
ed her most cordially. thanked her for
setting Sweden right in the eyes of
Americans and ended by giHng her
with his own hand his photograph
with autograph attached. That is more
courtesy than president of the United
States often shows to a newspaper
woman. with all our pretended democ-
racy.
Mrs. Howard was the only American

also a broken female statue. Upon the
left shoulder of this statue were the
remains of a child's arm and hand.
Miss Del Mar noted that this statue
stood in the same position as that Of
the Venus of Milo. Instantly the idea
popped into her head that the so called
Venus Of Milo had originally also held
a child in her arms and that she was
not Venus at all, but Demeter, an
GENTLY worshiped as the mother of all
the gods. Tnr
Miss Del Mar Immediately began to
make sketches of her idea of the re
stored statue bearing a babe in its
arms. She commenced a large paint
ceived it. That was five years ago in
Paris. She returned about four years
ago to her home in New York, bringing
with her the unfinished picture She
completed it last year, and it was so
successful that it Immediately found
q purchaser at q large price. The
painting is s by 10 feet in size. 1t
shows the magnificent Demeter, as
Miss Del Mar has renamed the statue,
holding an infant In her arms, like the
ancient Madonna she really was.
About her feet stand worshiping moth
ers with children. making offerings of
fruit. Around Demeter's head Miss
Del Mar has painted a nimbus, which
was often found about the heads Of
pagan divinities.

may sanguinary conflicts here with

wholesale massacres of policemen, gen
darmes and infantry patrols. These
conspirators shot and killed seventeen
policemen, four gen darmes and seven
infantry paholmen. and wounded a
score more. Soldiers fired a volley into
q crowd, killing fifteen and wounding
with bullets and bayonets 1870. The
massacre is supposed to have been
planned by revolutionists in revenge
for the arrest recently of ten socialist
workmen in the iron working suburb
of Praga.
1t was a Roman Catholic holiday,
and no one suspected that massacre
was in preparation. The weather was
beautiful, the city was calm, and thou
sands of people were crowding out-go-
ing excursion trains. simultaneously
