Degenerate and Degenerates.

Are you to attribute to the deprav-
ity Of the public taste the murder
stories that for the past two weeks
have crowded the St. Paul and Min
neapolis papers? At first glance it
would seem so. The Minneapolis
Tribune for instance has increased
it's street sales $4,000 since the Mat
thews murder.
And yet what is there to the affair ?
Merely this: A degenerate choked a
young woman to death. Every detail
is repulsive and every word writ
ten about it in the popular language
Of the newspapers is a social crime.
Such articles, pampering to NOR
bid taste, are direct incentives to the
commission by other degenerates of
the most terrible crimes.
Legislation cannot make the i'm
onre. nure, but it could prevent the
cultivation Of a diseased magma
ton by prohibiting the publication of
murder stories.-Redwood Gazette.

DENMARK.

State Councillor Schnachenburg and
DR.. Christian Kjar, of Odense, have
just started on long and interesting
Journey. They are going to visit
Rome, Sicily, Tunis and Aleiers, and
from the latter place they propose to
make trip thru the desert on the
backs of camels.
Those Copenhagen policemen who
have charge of the bloodhounds sub.
jected the dogs to test late one even
ing in Sodermarken. A number of
patrolmep represented criminals and
concealed themselves in different
quarters. The dogs found all the men
in short time and kept them until
their masters arrived. One of the
dogs that found a "criminal' did not
know that his customer was a men,
ber. Of the police force, and he bit him
In the leg so that the blood flowed
freely.
The English coal strike is becoming
Z serious matter even in Denmark.
Not only has the price of coal doubled,
but the question confronting the coun-
try will soon be, coal or no COAL
Before the twentieth of March many
factories in Copenhagen and vicinity
had to cut down the business for lack
Of fuel, and since that time many have
been closed. It was calculated that
by the fifth of April there would be
general coal famine. The state rail-
ways are said to have enough coal to
last for six weeks or more. As mat
ter Of fact, however, orders have been
given to the railway employees to be
as saving on coal as possible. This
economizing is most striking on the
car ferries running across the Great
Belt. The reduction of the consump-
ton of coal on these ferries has also
reduced their speed, and this, in turn,
has made it impossible for the trains
to run on schedule time. It is even
proposed to abandon some of the regu-
lar trips.

SWEDEN.

Sweden produces footwear for $13,-
100000 year.
A Norwegian newspaper states that
Norwegians have an option on large
properties in Sweden, and that the
prices are reasonable.
Elections were held in two wards in
Stockholm few days ago, and in
each case the Conservatives gained
one seat in the city council.
Three Swedish shipyards are in a
position to build the gunboat for which
patriotic swedes are raising millions
Of dollars by private subscription.
The city council of Stockholm elect
ed a committee on public rest. This
committee has proposed that the time
of public rest" shall last from 10
p. m. to $50 a. m.
A horrid story was spread broadcast
through the country to the effect
that the members of the cabinet failed
to rise when the king entered the
executive office when a meeting was
to be held. But an inquisitive news
paper reporter who went to work to
get at the particulars soon found that
1t was first of April story sprung
few days ahead of time.
A suicide in Eskilstuna gave rise
to discussion in the press. The
man was said to have been driven to
death by grief caused by the break
ing of the temperance pledge. Sever
al writer's used this tragedy as an ar
gument to prove that it is demoraliz-
ing to sign the temperance pledge
for life. Alexis Bjorkman, head Of
the bureau of information of the tenn
perance organizations of Sweden, en-
tered the controversy to prove that
life-pledge is much more successful
than a pledge for a limited period of
time. Taking the reports for the year
1910-1911, he pointed out that among
1906 Good Templars, who sign tho
pledge for life, 1896 broke the pledge.
On the other hand, the Blue Ribboners
who do not require a pledge for life,
lost 4,402 out of 39,44S members from
the same cause; and the Verdandi,
another organization which requires
only limited pledge, lost 1876 out
of 1908 members. Mr.. Bjorkman re-
grets that so many break the pledge,
but he does not think it is strange,
for as soon as person has "signed
the pledge" his drinking acquaint.
ances will use all manner of means to
induce him to break his pledge.
The forest commission of Warm
land, which was appointed a year and
q half ago, has made partial report.
According to this report Varmland has
O00,000,000 trees that are less than
one and a half inches in diameter
four feet from the ground. The total
amount of timber is put at 81, 200, 900
cubic meters. The annual growth is
over 100000 cubic meters.

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

Carefully compiled labor statistics
tor the year 1911 show that there were
"a strikes or lockouts, which involved
1907 employers and 20,41S employees.
The whole number Of days of work
lost on account of "a Interruptions
were $4,000. It is very instructive to
note how the "a conflicts were settled
In 43 cases work was resumed on the
basis proposed by the employers, "a
were settled according to the demands
Of the strikers, and ~ were settled by
compromises. In 16 cases the state
conciliators assisted in bringing about
agreements.
German athletes who compete in
the Olympiad at Stockholm this sum-
mer will surprise spectators by run
ming in the American style, according
to J. D. Lightbody, former star half
miller. Lightbody has spent four years
In Germany supervising the training
OF runners, and many of his pupils
will compete in the games. He has
visited number of German cities, CIV
Ing the runners pointers in American
methods, and he says there are many
fast men in the kaiser's country.
Among Lightbody's pupils in Berlin
were two members of the emperor's
family, Prince Frederic Charles of
Preussen, and his brother, Prince Sig
fsmund. Lightbody will accompany
the princes to the games in Stockholm
next summer. He declared that the
Germans will make their presence felt
In the races.
The statistics collected for the pur-
pose Of throwing light on the PROPOSE
ton to grant the voting franchise to
women have incidentally furnished
some interesting information on the
growth of the population of the coun.
try. The rate of marriage is constant
ly on the decrease. The main reason
for this is said to be that a constantly
larger number of women compete
with the men in the field of labor.
This makes it more difficult for the
men to earn enough to warrant the
establishment of families, and down
goes the rate of marriages, and at the
same time the birth rate. The fact
that the total population still in
creases Is due to the decreasing death
rate. It is said, however, that the
death rate is reaching minimum,
and if this proves true the Swedish
people will have to stop it's numerical
growth.
