Fire broke out after dark IN the
Bogebjerg manor, in the island Of
F'yen. All the outhouses were burnt
to the ground. The main building and
the stock were saved. But three hui
man lives were lost--the gardener, an
apprentice working under him, and q
servant. All of them persisted in
the attempt to put out the fire. They
went into q barn made Of boards and
while they were there the flames
spread SO rapidly that they could not
get out again ;5:
Prof. Otto Jespersen, noted philolo-
gist, who has q cottage near Jagers-
borgshus, the summer residence Of
PRINCE Harold, has written q pretty
sharp newspaper article in which he
scores the prince for having closed
up 9 pond belonging to the park Of
the prince. The prince has had a
wire fence put up and the ice made
rough so that no one can skate on
the pond, and this is what made the
professor hot. The fact that the criti-
cism appeared in the newspaper of the
Social Democrats did not make the
matter more agreeable to the royal
family.
