pertaining to the fishing business Of

methods of fishing, and, of course, in
the Kinds of fish caught. All Of this
will be clearly illustrated at the

DEN MARK.

attack has been made upon the per-
sonal honesty of a cabinet officer, the
victim being A. Albert, who for the
past seven years has been minister of
justice in the Danish cabinet. He has
been accused of using his official pO-
sition to improve his financial condi-
ton. The first attack was failure,
but it has now been renewed by DR..
L. V. Birk, professor in the Univep
sity of Copenhagen and a Conserva-
tive member of the lower house.
His charge is that the minister has
given privileges to a private lottery
that under the fundamental law be-
long to the crown. The professor
claims that this lottery was given as
a concession to owners of a race
track, in the vicinity of which the
minister has bought nearly a million
acres of land. the value of which has
been greatly increased by the lottery
scheme
The attack has been repeated in the
upper house by Former Minister
Bramsen, a well known member of
the Conservative party, who declares
that the only way in which Alberti
can clear himself is to permit a COM
mission to investigate his affairs. If
Albert will not submit to the investi-
cation it will become necessary for
him to resign from the ministry.
A short time ago company of Nor
mon priests came to Denmark to be-
gin a campaign to resuscitate Nor
monism which is rapidly dying out.
The farmers among whom they began
their work became thoroughly indig-
nant and some of the meetings be-
came scenes of great disorder ending
in rough-and tumble fist fights.
: Nevertheless, the priests insisted on
holding private meetings until the
country people finally found them
out and began a most vigorous fight
against them. They even went so far
as to deliberately throw the newcom-
ers from the halls and churches where
they were engaged in their work OF
TRYING to convert, and the priests IN
some cases were compelled to flee for
their lives. The priests were very
persistent and did not give up, how
ever. but went around the country in
disguise until the vigilant farmers
again found them out. This time the
farmers proved too much for the
would-be converters and went for
them so violently that the only saliva
ton for the priests and their follow
ers was to leave the country. This
means a loss of at least 200 Mormons
in Denmark. In other words, their
cause has apparently been done away
with in that country.
