WILL CELEBRATE BIRTH
OF POET AND AUTHOR
Bjornserne Bornson Whose Works Have Long Been Rec
ognized Will be Seventy five Years Old Tomorrow and
His Native People Will Do Him Homage-His
Works are Widely Known. @s

Christiania, Dec. 7.-All Norway
is preparing to celebrate tomorrow
the seventy-tifth birthday of her
most distinguished poet and author
Bjornstjerne Bjornson. The ami

Tor demonstrations by the literary,
dramatic ard singing societies
throughout the country. Literary
exercises will be held at the
universities and in all the principal
towns and the venerable author
will doubtless be showered with
concentrations from every quarter
of the world.
Bjornson has long been recogniz-
ed as the national poet of Norway
His name is a synonym OF the
hopes and aspirations of the Nor
wegian people in their political
and intellectual struggles. No
man ever loved Norway more than
he; no man ever did more than
he for the progress and prosperity
To promote her welfare he has
unweariedly applied all the powers
OF his great genius.
bJornson was born in 1882 in
the district OF Osterdalen, where
his iather was clergyman. Six
years later his family moved to
komedalen, a district famous for
its magnificent scenery. At thesage
OF eleven the lad was sent to
school, but his progress was not
rapid. When eighteen years old
he came to Christiania and at
Heltberg's school became a COM

Lie and others who were later to
become famous.
Bjornson began his literary ca

epoch-making in scandinavian lit
erature. In 1t and several others
that followed he gave an idealiz-
ed picture OF peasant brought
the thoughts and aspirations of
the peasantry into literature.
In all his literary work Bjorn-
son has conscientiously and persists
emily sought to put his high and
noble ideals into practice. He
has not been mere poet and
dreamer, holding himself aloof
from the people. He has personally
with both tongue and pen-en-
gagged in every political social and
literary combat of his times.
Through his ardent advocacy OF
reform he has often brought upon
himself the wrath of many but
the gratitude of more. He is
without doubt the greatest orator
that Norway has ever produced.
Pleading the cause of truth and
justice before large audience he
is irresistible. His oratorical pow.
ers have been lavishly used in
the service OF his country. tat,
Bjornson is a man of powerful
personality and commanding pres
ence. Grim and furious at times,
he nevertheless possesses the gen.
tleness of woman. The approach
of his seventy-fifth anniversary has
flooded the Norwegian press with
anecdotes and stories of the cele-
brated poet. There are many
touching stories of his relations
with his tenants on his estate and
the scores OF poor people and social
|outcasts who continually visit him
for advice and assistance. And
it is said that none seeks him
IN vain.

New York. Dec. 7.-Rarely II
ever in the history of the country
has the convening of Congress been
hailed with as much delight by
the business interests in New York
as the session now under way. Or
dinarily this event is attended by
greater or less anxiety because
OF the fears entertained that gen.
eral business is likely to suffer
from "tariff tinkering" and "cur-
rency legislation, two of the
greatest bugaboos known to the
commercial and financial commune
ties of the United States. In the
present instance, however. there is
no apparent danger of any serious
legislation looking to change In

WEEKLY LETTER FROM

Convsning Of Congress was Hailed With Delight in
New York Business and Financial Circles People
Afraid OF "Tarif Tinkering" and "Currency
Legislation"

lief to our monetary situation gen
eral business conditions throughout
the length and breadth of the
United States are already showing
unmistakable evidence OF improve
ment and while the process of re-
covery must necessarily be slow, it
will be none the less sure, and
will be all the better for that Here
in New York normal conditions
are gradually being restored, as
is demonstrated by the steadily
improving banking conditions. the
disappearance OF the premium on
currency and the rather pronounced
upward movement that has taken
place in the securities OF all our
leading railway and Industrial cor
porations from the ridiculously low
figure they touched during the
panic. On the New York Stock
Exchange as we'll as on the Con-
solidated Stock Exchange, there is
now in evidence demand for
stocks and bonds from investors
all over the country the like of
which has seldom been seen by
even some of the Oldest habitues of
! Wall Street. In fact the splendid
facilities of the latter Exchange are
being taxed almost as never be-
fore. Even at going prices. there
are still innumerable bargains to
be had, and it is therefore inevi.
table that as the period of recov-
cry advances the movement now
under way will assume still larger
proportions. More particularly is
this so now that 1t becomes evident
that the Administration at Wash

the error OF its way and has de
termined to forego further attacks
upon corporate enterprises. which
