OLD ENGLISH CASTLE
TO BE REBUILT ON
LONG ISLAND ESTATE.
London Report Says Tattershall
House Has Been Bought
by American.

LONDON, Sept. GA circumstantial
story was printed here yesterday to the
effect that the historic TattershaI Cas-
tie, In Lincolnshire, had been sold TO
an American millionaire, who purposeo
to tear 1t down brick by brick, trans
mort it to the United States and re-
erect 1t there as a private residence.
Vigorous efforts have been made re-
Gently to raise funds by private sub
scription in order to save this pic
turesque, historic landmark to the ma
ton" This patriotic effort, following
closely on several similar ones In be-
half of certain ancient hereditary
works of art. was a dismal failure.
The castle was owned by b. Terah
Hooley. the notorious financier, who re-
GENTLY became bankrupt. 1t contained
four, much-admired fireplaces, which
were copied by Pugin when he de-
s,gned the freplaces for the Houses of
Parliament.
All wealthy Americans at present in
London when questioned on the subject
promptly denied that they knew any
thing about It.. One man., against
whom suspicion had been directed
said;
when some noble British lord wants
to dispose of a historic relic or work
of art nowadays. he starts a eport
that 1t is going to be sold to an Amerf-
can millionaire. Then the patriotic
public is Nexpected to come onward to
put UP the noble lords price for it n
save it to the country. The report that
somebody has bought this castle n
will remove 1t to America, to be set up
again in some other form than Its pres
ent one, which is the only form N
which 1t has any value, Is too absurd
to be believed. Any n who has sense
enough to make a million dollars would
have too much sense to do such a
thing as that"

Denmark had promised to be the pro-
tector Of the congress, and Minister of
Justice Bulow to be it's honorary
president. At the head of the COM
mittee of arrangements is Mrs. Col.
Malvina Mehru. The other day Mrs.
Mehru received a letter from the
kings cabinet secretary, stating that
the king would not be the protector Of
the congress because it is also to be
an anti-vivisection convention, a fact
which the king did not know when he
permitted his name to be used in that
connection. The minister of justice
has also declined to be honorary presi-
dent. The use of the rigsdag building

mise could not be kept. Mrs. Mehru is
greatly discouraged, but she is going

board Of regents of the Minnesota
State University will make a selec-
ton of the site for the Duluth demon
stration farm at the meeting May 4.

gents, 1t is expected, to make a selec-
ton. It is understood here that Dean
Woods and soil expert will make

duce Northern Minnesota in an agricul-

enough to the city to enable the large
number of homeseekers that pass
through this city every year to visit
it and see for themselves what may
be accomplished. Although the money
for the new demonstration farm will
not be available until next year, it is
said that arrangements can be made

About $4,000 Norwegians emigrated

for this falling off, One is, that the

another is, that the heavy emigration

The MOSCOW Vjedomosti, one of the

general attention in Norway. The
paper first mentioned the Russian pro-
position to extend it's territorial limits,
and the dissatisfaction which this
proposition caused in the interested
circles in England and Norway, "the
fishermen of whose countries are the
main marauders along the coasts Of
Russia" Next the paper argues that
each country must have right to fix
its own territorial limits, England max
ing the limit twenty miles at Ceylcn,
and Norway making it ten geograph-
ical miles at one point. The Vjedo-
mosti finally devotes considerable
space to the attitude on this matter
taken by Foreign Minister Irgens OF
Norway at meeting of the storting.
He said that the two countries were
on the most friendly terms, and the
paper was in hopes that 1rgens ex-
pressed the true sentiments of the
Norwegian government
