ODD ADVENTURE OF TWO TRAv-
ELERs IN SWEDEN.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nils Nilsson. who Have
Just Returned, Occupied the Room at
Wisely Where the "War Lord of Eu-
rope" Stayed Other Tourists Re-

''This room was occupied by Kaiser
Wilhelm on two occasions and that s.
the bed he slept in. You are to make
yourselves at home here, and to sleep
in that bed. =
So said Carl E. Ekman to Mr.. and
Mrs. Nils Nilsson of Minneapolis, as he
nshered them into the beautiful bed
chamber in his home at Wisely, little
city on the island of Cortland in the
Baltic sea. Nh. Ekman is one Of the
most prominent business men of Wisely,
main owner Of steamship line whose
vessels ply along the eastern coast of
Sweden, and he also represents the Ger
man and Brazilian governments in Gott-
land as consul. The German emperor has
In many ways shown his friendship for
the consul. He has stopped over night
with him twice, while on his way to and
from Stockholm, and has given him
many presents.
"When Mr.. Ekman had gone, leaving
us alone,' said Mr.. Nilsson, who has
just returned with large party from
the northwest after a ten weeks tour
thru Scotland and Sweden, 81 looked
around the room and saw very beauti-
full oil painting Of Kaiser Wilhelm Git
which hung on the wall; two gold med
ais which, the inscriptions said, were
presents from the sovereign; quantity

silverware similarly inscribed, and
many other suggestive things ]

"She drew long breath, sank into
a chair, heaved a sigh which I was
afraid everybody in the house, inclul
ing our host, would hear, and then sal
silent. It was hard to believe thai
here-right here-once lived the en-,
peror of Germany and king Of Prussia
the so-called 'twar lord Of Europe, - o.
whom we had read SO much and whose
stern countenance the cartoonists has

painting again. Yes, the features wer'

says he's a democratic man, very muci
like our president, man who acts upo1
his own Judgment rather than upo1
that Of others, and acts forcefully, too
just like Mr.. Roosevelt does.
"We had breakfast there at M,
Ekman's residence, and in the after
noon were driven seven miles thru tn
beautiful country, which just bristle
with interesting, historic relics, to GU
host s country house. There we dine
with bank presidents, editors, railroa
officials, the secretary to the governo
of the island and others. Several o
these men spoke after the meal, de

state fair grounds will complete prepa-
rations which have been year in ma
turing and bring the fortyseventh an
snual fair to state Of completion and
readiness for it's throngs of visitors.
The plans for this fair have been ex-
ceptionally well laid. All the officers
and heads of departments are expert
enced men, and they have brought to
the preparations for the fair of 1906
all the knowledge gained by years of
fair-making Right after the fair of
last year general plans for this season
were outlined, and they have been elab-
grated and broadened as the months
went on.
Treasury Is Empty.
The great work of the year has
been the construction Of the enormous
livestock amphitheater, This is the
largest building of its class in the
country. 1t cost $4,000, Of which
$4,000 was appropriated by the legis-
lature from the state treasury and $780,
900 was paid from the funds of the
Agricultural society, consuming all tho
surplus and profits from the fairs Of
tious imposed by the legislature the
society finds itself approaching fair
opening with scarcely a dollar in the
treasury and the certainty of financial
stringency if the weather should prove
unpropitious during the week.
However, the fair is more independ-
emit Of the weather than formerly and
the new amphitheater is one Of the aids
to this independence. For several years
the cattle and horses have been Judged
in the open air or in canvas tent which
was a poor protection against the
weather. This year 10000 people at a
time can watch the cattle judging ami
horse display under perfect conditions
The amphitheater will be dedicated
on Monday, Sept. 8, the opening day
Of the fair. Secretary E. W. Randall
