ITEMS FROM THE OLD HOME
Resume Of the Most important Events
In Sweden, Norway and Denmark
OF lnterest TO the scandlnavlans
In America.

The 100 members of the Swedish
Riksdag who visited Christiania In the
early part OF July were received with
the most unmistakable tokens OF
good win among all classes Of peo-
pie In Norway. The common people
seem to have been particularly en-
thusiastic. Hjalmar Branting. who is
one Of the party. wrote as follows
about the trip In Socialdemokraten:
1T ought to be known as extensively
As possible In Sweden how far among
the people the warm sympathy was
telt which was shown to our riksdag-
men by everybody and every party.
Not only by official circles. no matter
how representative they were Es-
pecially at our departure didthe sym
pathies OF the deep strata Of society
show themselves. Everywhere along
the road to the boundary line people
had assembled, everywhere we could
see waving handkerchiefs and witness
ovations in honor of the Swedish riks-
dagmen who had visited Norway to
shake hands with their kinsmen on
the other side OF the Kjolen noun
tains. Everything connected with
our reception proved that just now
was the right moment for extending
the whole hand. and In Norway it was
seized In a manner which convinced
US that the handshake meant busi-
ness. And thus the beautiful and In
structive Christiania exposition should
even serve It's country in joining what
naturally belongs together. In full lib
erty. with that sympathy which car
ries and endures where onerous. arti-

KEPT THEM UNDER HIS EYE
Idea Of Garden Party for Fanatics
Proved Salvation Of British Gov.
ernor In india.

Lord Suffield went with the then
prince OF Walter to India In 1875. At
one place the governor felt nervous be-
cause among his people there were a
number of political and religious
fanatics. who might be expected to
make trouble when the prince passed
through. He was strongly tempted to
lock them all up. but this would have
been somewhat high-handed action.
and the governor hesitated to enforce
IT.
He mentioned his difficulty to one Of
his daughters.
But why not give garden party,
papa?" she replied at once. Invite
them all and keep them entertained
until the prince has passed through"
So a fanatics garden party was CIV

he was In conflict with that enemy Of

manded a shilling; the Scotchman Of

the gardener, gentlemen pay me nine

So small is the consumption OF ice
In Ireland that one plant is able to
take care of the demands OF the en-
tire south and west Of the Emerald
Isle" And its output amounts to only
six tons day.
In addition to this plant there are
two breweries, a chilled-meat concern
and a butter factory which use Ice
making machinery. The use Of Ice
for domestic purposes is virtually un-
heard Of, owing to the mild tempera-
lures which prevail naturally through
out the summer months. The high

An attempt has been made during
the past year or two to lower the ap-
parent height Of square built two-story
houses. So many cottages have been
built OF late that the eye is becoming
accustomed to lower dwellings and
they are growing In popularity be-
cause there are many homelike fea-
lures about such houses that high
two-story houses lose. Most people
like to keep near to the ground.
Three-story houses, that were so com
mon 20 years ago, are now seldom
built.
There is a business reason for low
er houses as well as a sentimental
one. The fact is that although build
ing materials are somewhat cheaper
this year than last they still cost a
great deal more money than Of old.
and labor also Is more expensive. The
higher you go into the air the greater
the cost, and this Is one reason why
architects like to keep dwellings as
low as is consistent with good results
When, fortunately, sentiment and a
low roof are both on the side Of
econ1my II is easy to cater to q popu.
lar fashion.
A six-room house on the square or
der with rather a fancy roof is shown
in the accompanying design. Some
people object TO a plain pyramid roof,
such as we often see on houses Of
this shape, aud this plan seems to get
around the difficulty without adding
expensive dormers that are OF no
special use.
This design is 20 feet inches wide
and 81 feet 6 inches long. exclusive

chill out of the whole house and II
win make the dining room comfort
able to sit in even when the weather
becomes quite cold. By economizing
like this In fuel a small furnace In
the cellar will keep this little house
warm all winter with i've or six tons
Of coal, and when It comes to looks,
a square house built after this design
is very satisfactory.
II needs a heavy porch like this in
front for appearance. and you need It
in the summertime for comfort.
When the base of the porch is built

in solid under the rail instead Of being
filled in In the usual way with balus-
ters it adds to the solid effect besides
giving little more protection on cold
days. Then If you want to fit screens
or sash between the posts It is easily
done Mosquitoes are bad In all parts
Of the country during certain seasons
and 1t is worth a great deal to have
a porch screened from the pests.

SWEDEN.

From the foreign exchanges comes
word that all has not been merry as
a wedding bell for Ernest Hjertberg.
the American trainer who has charge
of things athletic In Sweden. AS near
ly as can be made out, the trouble
seems to have conferred with one indi-
vidual who thought he knew more
about the details Of conditioning ath-
letes than did Hjertberg. This chap
is said to have been a man of con-
siderable influence and a disposition
to use the influence. Hjertberg re-
sented interference in the details Of
his work, and threatened to resign II

Along about this time emissaries from
England had visited Hjertberg and Of

ain, and this perhaps added little
pep to Hjertberg's demand that he
be allowed to have his way In every
thing pertaining to the training of
the Swedish athletes. When the
trouble became known. Swedish ath-
letic and political circles were con-
siderably fiustered over II, and steps
were taken to placate the trainer and
without any great delay In the order
OF the proceedings. The interferer
is said to have been escorted to the
rear seat near the door, Hjertberg
told to boss the whole peninsula and
his path smoothed in such a way
that he has agreed to forget the little
unpleasantness and go ahead prepar-
ing the Swedes for the Berlin games.
There is something like deadlock
In the Swedish riksdag with regard to
the defenses. Against the bill offered
by the government with the support
OF the conservatives, the liberals put
up a counter proposal which coincid-
ed with the government as far as the
work of the defense committee, but
deviated in certain points, especially
on the question Of the infantry serv-
ice period At the election the lib
erals had promised to restrict the In
creased period to what was abso-
lutely necessary to gain an effective
training. It was supposed that the
conservatives would seize the offer
made by the liberals to cooperate In
strengthening land and sea defenses.
But instead the conservative press
sounded the attack and in the defense
committee, Mr.. Trigger, the leader Of
the conservatives. declared that he
cared nothing about solution Of the
defense question at present II not al
lowed to decide every detail. Il urge
