A movement has been started in Norway in favor of the abolition of decorations.
 M. ThOrne, a cabinet minister. and a former speaker of the storthing, has set an example by declining the grand cross of Saint Olaf, the highest dis tinction in Norway, which the king re- gently conferred upon him in recogni- tiOn of his services especially at the time Norway declared her indepen- Gence, and the dissolution of the Swed- ish Norwegian union took place
 In returning the decoration M. Thorne thanked his majesty for the honor. but said that he thought that he was doing his duty as a Norwegian citizen in refusing it. Coming from a strong conservative this action shows how widespread is the objection to decorations in the country.
 In the storthing there are 82 mem bers who control a majority against decorations. They have already sub mitted an amendment to the constitu- ton in this respect, which is certain to be passed

 The American minister, who on pre- ViOus occasions, has obtained fair treat ment for American meat by satisfying the Norwegian authorities that it was of good quality and was carefully in spected, has made a public statement in which he points out that the Ameri- can authorities do not inspect, stamp | or certify horse meat and that the article complained of is saltod beef, ac- cOmpanied by an official stamp and certificate, against which there has never been any complaint.

REAL DIR. JEKYLL
AND MR.. HYDE IN
PRISON % YEARS
Believed That R. Irving Latimer
Furnished Stevenson With
Idea for His Novel.

JACKSON, MICH, Oct. 25.-After
reading Robert Louis Stevensons re-
markable story of DR.. Jekyll and Mr..
Hyde and comparing the details there
set forth with the history of r. Irving
Latimer, one is led to believe that the
notorious murderer was the subject
of that stirring narrative.
Presenting himself to the public as
a Sunday school teacher, a leader in
young society in Jackson, embodying
in himself all that was good-this was
the Latimer as he was known to his
friends-this was the DIR. Jekyll.
Look upon the other Latimer-the
Mr., Hyde--a murderer, the suspected
slayer of his father, the murderer of
his mother, the man who poisoned a
guard and escaped from the peniten-
tiary.
Mary II. Latimer, the mother, was
found dead in hey home with two
bullet holes in her head Latimer,
then % years of age, was arrested
January 20, 1889, and convicted after
hard battle, in which the Latimer
property was swept away.
Killed His Aged Mother.
Lattmer went to Detroit to the old
Griswold Hotel and registered. Ire
then visited number of friends. In
the evening he retired and disar-
ranged the coverings of the bed He
then cautiously left, arriving in this
city shortly before midnight.
He entered his home through a win
dow, removed his shoes and tiptoed
to the bedroom, where his aged mo-
Their lay sleeping.
He drew a pistol, placed it against
his mothers head and fired. The shot
was not fatal and the wounded WON.
an, recognizing her son, blindly tried
to escape Latimer. driven to des-
peration, fired another shot into her
body, pulled her from the window and
showed gag into her mouth to drown
her screams. She died while he was
still In the room.
Poisoned Gate Keeper.
In 1893, four years later, Latimer
was trusty at the penitentiary. He
was appointed to serve the midnight
lunch to the prison attaches He
mixed some poison with a glass of
lemonade and gave it to the gate
keeper, killing him. Latimer escaped,
but was recaptured.
1t is believed Latimer also MUIR
dered his father two years before he
killed his mother At the time of Mr.
Latimer's death the doctor who was
called informed Mrs. Latimer that he
had been poisoned.
Mrs Latimer begged the doctor to
keep the discovery a secret to save
her son.
Latimer is still an inmate of Jack
son prison. He has served more than
half of his life behind prison bars.
Whether he will ever be released on
parole under the 25-year law remains
for the future to determine.
