Sweden's test OF the strength Of her

though much of the country is without
railway communication, the regiments

end of two days. despite the enormous
distance.
The citizen soldiers were ordered to
serve under an act of the last riksdag
and kept under colors for ten days for
training before beginning the march for
home.
On the whole the maneuvers have shown
that the Swedish organization is working
very well. The modified troops came
from an area far larger than many Euro

Hard to Get Good Models.

Painters and sculptors often complain
OF the difficulty of getting good models
In Berlin. In Paris. Rome, Vienna, the
d difficulty is nothing like so great. though
even in these cities the business is likely
to fan into the hands Of particular few
who obtain reputation for certain ele-
mental poses. If the plans of a painter
named Wedepohl come to fru;tion the
lack OF models in Berlin is to be met by
the establishment of ''bourse'' on the
analogy of the stock or stamp exchange,
where artists and models are to meet
and where the laws Of demand and sup
Ply Will come into operation.
There are two or three reasons for the
lack of models in the German capital.
The occupation is not considered ''vor-
nehm' or ''anstaeding''-t words which
include the whole doctrine of Philistine
responsibility in Germany, and this is a
little odd, because the moral atmosphere
OF Berlin can make no just claim to be
purer than that of any other European
metropolis. One might suppose that the
meter would be better paid in Berlin
owing to the scarcity Of the supply. but
that seems not to be the case, inasmuch
as an hours work. sitting or standing

ing which she makes of him an equal in spite of the crime he committed.
 All Arizona rang, just a few years ago, with the murder committed by Eytinge. He induced John Licht, with whom he had been rooming, to canal, near Phoenix. While there Eytinge chloroformed his victim and left him to die. Coming into Phoe- nix, Eytinge cashed checks belonging to Licht, and fled the city. A week later Licht's body was found in the brush north of the canal.
 Then began the search for Eytinge, which proved fruitless until in a spirit of bravado he wrote letter to W. J Spear of Phoenix, in which he boast ed of his ability to elude the officers of Arizona. His murderous vanity proved his undoing ,and the sheriff's office caught him in Southern Cali fornia. He was brought back to Phoenix, tried and convicted.
 That Eytinge deliberately coaxed his victim to a lonely spot to murder him for checks and valuables, was the theory of the prosecution. Eytinge claimed that Licht committed suicide, but Eytinge's flight, his cashing Of Licht's checks by forging the latter.s name and his previous prison record damned him in the eyes of fair and impartial jury.
 While detained in the Phoenix jail awaiting his trial for murder, Eytinge boasted about his ability as forger. He served time in the Columbus, Ohio, penitentiary, for cashing bogus checks In spite of the gravity of the murder charge, Eytinge's vanity courted no tority. This was generally taken as one of the most disgusting features of the brutal affair. Since reaching the penitentiary he has never lost an op portunity to get before the public eye.
 Local people looked for Eytinge as the last of the inmates to be made an
 honor guest of the state peniten- tiary. His outing with Kate Bernard, who has been taking her meals at the penitentiary, and sleeping there, at the expense of the state, for nearly a month, has caused much indignation among both the friends and foes of prison reform here.
