Jacob Broennum Scavenius Estrup,
for many years the leading politician
of Denmark, died at Copenhagen on
Dec. "a. For nineteen years, from
1876 to 1894, he was premier and fl.
nance minister in the Danish cabinet.
He was born on April 16, 1925, and
entered politics in 1854 as a member
of the lower house.
Estrup, together with the king OF
Denmark, def1ed parliament for many
years when it demanded that the
monarch should choose the ministers
of state from among the representa-.
tives of the people. On many occa-
sions Estrup dissolved the chambers
when they refused to pass his budget
and the finances Of Denmark were
kept in order by means of provisional
laws.
During practically the whole of his
term of Office the majority in parlia-
ment was against him.
Estrup did much for the develop.

Professor Ingerbrigt Lillehel, head
of the Scandinavian department OF
the University of Illinois, has come
forward with the interesting sugges-
ton that the various "bydelags" OF
America ought to contribute money
toward a scientific study of the diar
lect languages of Norway. He says
these dialects are rapidly dying out
and now is the time to make a study
of them for the benefit of future stu
dents of Norwegian literature and
dialects. There are at the Univer-
sity of Christiania," says Professor
Lillehel, men competent to under
take such study if the necessary
funds could be provided. / do not
know how much money such work
would require, but each 'bydelag'
could easily ascertain the probable
cost by communicating with such men
as Professor Saegstad or Professor
Amund Larsen of the University OF
Christiania. AS l have said already
study should be made of the phonol.
ogy, vocabulary and syntax of the
dialects. Then to mark the exact
pronunciation it would be good
plan to make few photographic rec
ords of the pronunciation of different
individuals within the given dialect
and on a variety of themes. These
records could then be deposited with
the Univel ity of Christiania as {
priceless document for our linguistic
history. Of course much work has
been done already in the study of the
Norwegian dialect, but much remain:
to be done before we have anything
like a complete picture. Our dialects
are dying, but they are too beautiful
to die without a BETTING monumen
to commemorate them"

It is singular thing that as yet the
people OF Sweden have not become
used to sleeping in the open air. The
fact that Swedish-American is visit
ing in Kalleryd, Smaland, and sleep
ing in the open air has caused consid-
cradle comment in some Swedish
newspapers. The Swedish American,
whose name is not given, but who
presumably is only one among hun
dreds who at this time of the year
is sojoUrning in Sweden, during the
past few months has never slept "un-

An interesting Swedish invention has
been put on the market. 1t is an cleo
trical lighting apparatus to be used
in villas and small buildings in the
country. 1t Gamble driven by Evin-
rude or Standard motors. The appar-
atus, invented by Engineer K. E. New
en-, is made in two sizes, costing re-
spectively $50 and 1000 crowns, and
can be used Immediately after the
motor has been attached to it. The
cost is comparatively low and about
equal with lighting by petroleum.

The department of agriculture rec
commended to King Gustaf that pc
tition from the Swedish Farmers as
ISOLATION asking temporary reduction
of freight charges on the railroads be
granted on hay and straw. The hay
harvest in Norrland this year has
been uncommonly large and it is de-
sired that the surplus be. exported to
foreign countries. This cannot be
done, however, unless the govern.
ment reduces freight charges on the
railroads.
The organizers of the Swedish.
American line, Messrs. Wilhelm Lund-
gren, G. A Kjellberg and others
have presented to King Gustaf a petit
ton asking for an installment loan Of
100000 crowns, payable 100000
crowns per year. In the petition il
is stated that the boats of this line
will be built so that in case of neec
they can be changed to auxiliary

next year-1914-when Norway will
celebrate her independence festival,
will commence on May II, which falls
on Sunday. There will be services Of
national and patriotic character all
over the land and church bells will
ring in unison at a stated hour. All
the high functionaries of Norway,
including the king and queen, will
gather at service in the Trondhjem
cathedral. Elaborate preparations
for this great occasion are already
under way and the steamship COM
panies are prepared to handle large
crowds. Several thousand Norwe-
gian-Americans who will go to the
fatherland at this time and in many
cities of the United States large
sums of money are being raised to
give national gift to Norway.

Nearly $4,000 has been raised by
Norwegian of Minnesota
to finance a state exhibit at the Nor

writing a history of Minnesota, par
ticularly from the Norwegian stand
point, copies of which will be dis
tributed on the Norway exposition
grounds. The different exhibits be-
ing collected are for educational pur-
poses. The United States Steel Cor
poration has contributed model

other concerns are also aiding in a

1t is singular what a large amount
of territory in Norway is becoming
"dry" at present. The last report
comes from Drammen, which is the
fifth largest city of the country. Dur
ing a recent election there the city
went "dry" 1t has about 1850 vot-
ers, of whom a little more than 1000
took the trouble to vote. But as most
of these went on record against the
so called "samlag" it had to go. The
city, went wet by a large majority in
1897, the last time that the question
was up.

! The saltpeter industry in Norway
is now utilizing 100000 horsepower,
and about $30,0OO,OOO has been in
vested in this industry. In about a
year and a half from now the capacity
will be $4,000 horsepower, and the
value of the plants will be increased
to $40,000,0O0. Norway saltpeter has
crowded out Chilli saltpeter from Nor.
way entirely, and the ambition of the
Norwegians is to supply all North
