A few years ago a pretty story of a
Revolutionary wedding-gown was told
by Miss Ellen ID. Larned. A young
girl, daughter Of a patriotic family, was
about to be married The war was at
its height; prices were high, luxuries
scarce and the pretty brides trousseau
was simpler than it would have been
in happier times. She did not complain;
nevertheless, she had repressed longings
for pretty thaings which she believed
were unattainable.
But little while before the wedding

about the country booty taken from a
British prize by Yankee privateer.

Canada is winning the unenviable
reputation of an Eyeless Eden. The
men outnumber the women, and even
immigration does not mend matters. for
1t Is figured that of the 1900 new set
tiers who have arrived in Canada since
the first of the year not more than 8
per cent of them have been women
OF this s per cent the majority were
married women. In the western part
Of the Dominion the lack of women is
a serious handicap to the development
of the country. The settlers cannot
find wives, and as woman plays just
as important part as man in the
drama of new country, the govern
ment Of Canada is worried over the
unenviable situation.

and Queen Maud was made possible by
the momentous events of last summer
in Norway For many years differ
ences had existed between that c6ntry
aud Sweden as to the Interpretation to
be put upon the convention of 1914. and
the rikstag of 1915. Norway claimed
to be an independent nation and not to
belong constirutionally to Sweden. The
right to appoint consuls to foreign coun-
tries was one OF the chief matters in
dispute for several years. In May the
Norwegian storthing passed bin for
a separate consular system. 1t was
vetoed by King Oscar, whereupon the
Norwegian council of state resigned
The resignation was not accepted and
then the storthing passed resolution
declaring the union between Norway
and Sweden under one King dissolved.
This was on June Z. For some time
war between the two countries was
threatened. but finally commissioners
were appointed and the treaty Of Carl
stad was adopted BY which the dissolu-
ton of the old ties was confirmed and
arrangements made for future rela-
tions on the basis of complete indie
pendence.
Some Of the people Of Norway were
in favor Of establishing republic, but

such a radical step and the government,

JAMES W. HANL0Nu

When the death angel touched
with fingers of ice the pulse of
James W. Han1on, there was
stilled one of the noblest, most
unselfsh hearts that ever beat
in human breast.
1t was the privilege of the edi-
tor of the Gazette to know him
as it is given to few to know his
fellow-man-in the day of sun
shine as we'll as in the night of
sorrow, and at all times he
was the same man of high ideals,
uuflagging principle and self
forgetting devotion to duty.
He was the writer's alma mater
in the field of journalism and
whatever success the latter may
have attained in his chosen life
work is due to the principles in
stilled by this gifted and patrio-
tic man, whose great heart has
now ceased it's pulsations for
ever.
Editor Han1on was born in
Dougherty county, Ga, of ster-
ling Irish parentage, and his
early youth was spent on the
farm. While still a boy, at the
outbreak of the Civil War, he
joined the Dougherty Hussars,
and with Gobb's Legion, cavalry
fought over the bloody fields of
Virginia for four years. Most
truly never fought a brayer sol
der or knightlier gentleman.
At the close of the war he
learned the printers trade, and
later embarked in journalism,
