News Of Scandinavia
Principal Happenings Of the Week
in the Scandinavian Countries.

The Norwegian authorities ordered
Swedish paper for the records OF the
storthing on the ground that the Nor
wegian article was inferior to the
Swedish. But by this time they must
be very sorry for having made this
deal Most of the Norwegian news
papers have jumped upon the finan-
cial department Of the government,
their main grievance being, that the
deal is an international advertisement
for the Swedish paper industry at the
expense of the Norwegian paper mills.
The Norwegian newspaper and book
publishers are preparing public dec
laration to the effect that the paper
offered by the Norwegian competitors
for the government order was perfect
ly satisfactory. The Norwegians are
still further irritated by the assertion
that the Swedish dealer who is to FUR
nish the paper has secured a stipula-
ton to the effect that an eventual In
crease of the tariff shall not affect the
paper which he is to furnish to the
Norwegian government.

Has Memorized 10000 Dates.

e. C. Laston, who has just issued Z
challenge to the world for the memo
ry championship, although only q
young man Of twenty-three years, Is .
veritable walking encyclopedias, for
he has memorized 10000 dates of the
principal events in the worlds history
since the creation. 1t was quite by
accident that he discovered that he
had an exceptional gift of memory.
He was being trained as an army ON
Ger, when an attack of rheumatic f.
yer dispelled his hopes in that direc-
ton. At that time he happened to
meet the Zancigs in India, who, no.
ticing what remarkable memory he
had for dates, advised him to cultivate
it. He then purchased copy Of
Haydn's Dictionary Of Dates and
sought to commit to memory the dates
OF the most important events in the
worlds history by writing fifty to q
hundred dates on piece Of paper and
rewriting them three or four times
until he had fully grasped them, with
the result that he has a repertoire OF
thousands Of dates and can give the
correct answers without the slightest
hesitation.
