that it is customary for the king and

Commerce of Great Lakes.

Duluth.-A good deal Of the size Of
the traffic on the Great Lakes during
\ the season of navigation may be gath
cred from the. fact that, according to
statistics compiled by government en-
gineers in the Lake Superior district,
Duluth, a port more than 1000 miles
from salt water, stands next % New
York in respect to mean monthly
freight movement. Last year the
freight brought in and shipped out Of
st. Louis bay amounted to 22,676145
tons, valued at $19e,751,5ss, and this is
exclusive of receipts of logs amounting
to 34,2S5,00Q feet. The average month
ly value of this commerce was nearly
$25,000,O0Q, so that if there were open
navigation all the year round and the
monthly record were maintained the
total would be about 100000 900.
These shipments and receipts repre-
scented an increase of 6,O59,12S tons, or
36.46 per cent, over the total of 1904,
and an increase in cash value amount
ing to $39,51S,374

Deer Beats Train.

Hidding.-There was an exciting race
between Great Northern ore train and
a deer, and a number of wagers were
laid by the train crew on the result.
The deer popped OUT of the woods
about railway between here and Swan
river, took the edge Of the track and
trotted along ahead of the train. The
engineer opened the throttle a ,trifle
wider, but the deer put little more
ginger into his legs and kept ahead.
Then the throttle was thrown wide
open and the train shot forward with
greatly increased speed. Still the deer
managed to keep ahead for about 200
yards further. Finally, just as the re-
suit of the race was getting in doubt,
and the iron horse was slowly creeping
upon its forest rival, the animal turned
off into the woods. 1t had won a race
OF nearly two miles.

Much Money!

st. Paul.-The state closed April with
a cash balance of $3.50, 936.76 in the rev.
enue fund, decrease since a month
ago Of about 100000, but more than
100000 better IT., than the ,o cen4iion
enue fund totaled $636,127.32. On
April 30, 1905. it was down to $176,256.
From now on for several months the
expenses of the state government will
be larger than the income. The ex-
penses of the government during April
were $2S7,000 and the income some
thing like $1S5,00o. With that much
income during the next. three months
the state ought to close the fiscal year
without an overdraft. Last July the
fiscal year closed with shortage of
nearly $45O,000.

Principal Events That Have o.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

- DR.. Sigurd Ibsen, former Norwegian
minister Of state in Stockholm, has
written a magazine article on the disso-
luton of the Swedish Norwegian union
which is very interesting to the general
reader, but which is unpleasant read
ing for certain parties way up in soci-
ETY., and which has heaped any amount
of criticism upon DR.. Ibsen as a man
who does not know when it is time for
a gentleman to keep a secret. He tells
among other things, that he once asked
King Oscar whether the crown prince
could sanction the bill passed by the
Norwegian storting for the esta blish-
ment of a separate consular service for
Norway. To this the king answered
With all desirable frankness'' as fol-
lows: The crown prince cannot at
ford to pick quarrel with Sweden.
Remember that Sweden is the greater
country, and that the dynasty came
there before it came to Norway" On
the same occasion one of the Swedish
princes made the remark, that "per-
sonally it must be more plea SAINT by far
to be king of only one Of the two coun-
trles;' and another prince declared
still more emphatically: 'One cannot
intend to be both Norwegian and Swed-
ish without losing his character" The
author continues: when l last talked
with the king in March, 1905, he had
come to the conclusion that the disso-
luton of the union was a question Of
time, and I believe that he felt it as a
benefit when he was relieved of the
burden of being compelled to choose be-
tween the two" AS to the future of the
Scandinavian countries, Dr.. Ibsen gives
the following advice: I'VE must look
squarely at the conditions as they are
An alliance with a great power, no
matter which, cannot be contemplated
by the Scandinavian kingd3ms A real
alliance can exist only between equals.
Where one party is far more powerful
than the other the relation will be a
more or less masked protectoratc
Therefore the three Kingdoms of the
North are naturally thrown back upon
themselves. Joint action will be of
benefit to them not only in exceptional
cases of cosmopolitan scope, but also
in the everyday affairs of internation-
al life. Let us hope that we may dis
Germ these infinitely simple truths; that
ten million people weigh more than five
or two, and that great results are at
tanned by unity not by discord''
