NORWAY.
Christiana.

CnrJSC1an8.
During the fvs-year period which
ended in 1905 the population of Nor
way increased from 2,24O,O32 to
2,311,527. The population increased
as follows in the cities mentioned be-
low: Sarpsborg, from 1922 to 5000;
Lillehammer, Sill to 1887; Drammen
23,O93 to 24,5OO; Tonsberg, S,611 to
1881; Stavanger, 3O,613 to 34,S44;;
Haugesuun, 1911 to 1881; Bergen,
72,25l to $4,000; Aalesund, 11,777 to
14,COO; Kristiansund, 12,O5O to 1905;
Trondhjem. $3.50 to 10000; Narvik,
1923 to 4,5OO; Tromso, 6,996 to 1850.
The population Of Kristiania decreased
1854. OF the rural communities,
Nordland Amt was ut the head with
an increase Of 1872; and Akershus,
the country around Kristiania, was a
good second with an increase of
6,253. The city population increased
only Pill; the rural population 49,
724. Froni 1850 to 1900 the city pop
ulation increased faster than the
rural population. e:
A contributor to the Kristiania Nor
genblad has developed plan for play
ing 1bsen pieces in the same manner
as Wagners works are performed at
Baireuth. Ibsen's works have become
the property Of the civilized world,
and it is only fair that his memory
should be honored by theater in
Kristiania. This should not be located
in the city itself, but in some beauti-
full locality just outside the city. The
performances ought to be given from
the middle Of July to the middle Of
August. The actors might be selected
from among the best ones found in,
the country. Only eighteen of h.
sens works ought to be presented, six
each year, so that it would take three
years to complete the Ibsen "cycle." Z
The Dovre male chorus of Mime
apolis, Mimi, which has been giving
a series of concerts throughout the
country and been so cordially receievd
everywhere, have by this time started
on their return trip to the United
States. The trip has been a success
ful one. socially and financially.
During the field maneuvers in Nor
way this month the country will show
up greater military strength than
during any previous time in it's his
tory. About 161OO men will partici-
pate in the maneuvers, which will be
under tbs general command of Gener-
al Holvermann.
Elk and moose have. been doing
considerable damage to the forests in
Osterdalen. The damage caused by
the big game is estimated at not less
than 100000 crowns. They are very
plentiful in that section Of the coun-
try and are increasing at a very rapid
rate.
One of Christiania's leading music
directors died in Christiania recently.
He died at a ripe old age. He was
born in 1915, and was perhaps in his
prime the most widely known music
director in Norway. .
Garman, the famous actor at the
National theatsr, will celebrate his
fortietn anniversary as an actor on
the Doth Of this month.
Norways customs receipts during the
month of July were 100000 crowns
more than during the corresponding
month last year.

Scholars have wondered why 1t was
that the ancient Roman genius never

fact that the Romans never discovered

Has Wonderful Record.
Mr.. Davis began his railway carea:
July II, 1857, as a fireman ON the east
Iowa division, where he is still in serv-
ice. He was promoted and Civ 81
charge of an engine April p, 1889,
and 10 years later was promoted to 6
passenger run. His career is remark
able. and it is believed that in the en-.
tire country there is not an engineer
who has continued so long in the sery-
ice on a single railroad division as h 4
has. He is now 81 years Old but froa
all appearances will unless accident
overtakes him. continue running his
engine ON the same division for many
years to come. He has been in but
one wreck in his entire career, ana
that occurred through no fault of his
own. His train ran into freight
train at Wilton on foggy night years
ago. when his engine was not properly
tagged.
Marks of Merit.
The master mechanic of the division
who was invited to be present, in
sending regrets. said that the first
thing he did when he was asked
to attend was to examine. through
curiosity. the record OF Mr. Davis He
said that he found only about 30 d.
merit marks. and enough merit marks
to run from Rock Island to Valley
Junction if put side by side" Will
this was of course exaggerated, it
shows the excellent record of the an
ginGer.
Had Queer Incident.
Mr.. Davis in his career had an eV-
perienCe which is almost beyond the
comprehension of any man who ever
handled the throttle of a locomotive

an hour near Iowa City. his engine. No.
lSS. lost all four drivers. but the train
came to Il stop without derailing 4

Mr.. Davis admits that he himself
would hardly have believed this pos
sible had it not actually occurred on
his own engine.
