SOLDIERS STRUCK
BLIND BY FEAR
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec. 23.-The extraordin-
airy effects of shell fire upon those who
are forced to undergo it, are being dis
cussed at length in the British medical
journals.
An English surgeon now attached to
a Paris hospital reports the cases of
four men who show absolutely no trace
of bodily wounds, but who are now I'M
der his care Two of them were struck
deaf and dumb by shell explosions;
neither of them has anything wrong
with his organs of speech or hearing,
but is suffering simply from shock. A
third cannot see, caused by a nervous
shock. There is nothing the matter
with his eyes and complete recovery is
promised after period Of quiet and
rest. The fourth mans experience left
his mind blank
Field surgeons contribute accounts
of the manner in which death comes
from shell fire. In some cases men are
found stiff in death in life-like atti-
tudes, so that the stiffness character
istic of a corpse must have come on at
the very moment of death, whereas I'M
der ordinary circumstances a man dies
first and slowly stiffins afterwards.
Some of the field surgeons have attri-
buted this to the action OF poisonous
gas given off by the new explosive,
"turpenite." One of the pathologists
at Guys hospital, however, contradicts
that theory.

REPORT on NORWAY
EXHIBIT FUND

North Dakota Souvenirs Distributed
Much Interest Awarded. -
Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 14.-(Sec-
iaD.-Alfred Gabrielson, who was
manager of the exhibit placed at
Christiania during the past summer
by North Dakota, has just made his
report to Governor Hanna as to what
was done and how the money was ex-
pended. The last session of the leg
islature voted $4,000 to be spent
for the maintenance Of an exhibit and
the report shows that there will. be a
small balance left in the fund when
all the bills have been cleaned up.
Mr.. Gabrielson sets forth in his re-
port that the Norway Centennial ex-
position was held to celebrate the
one hundredth anniversary Of Nor
ways constitution and was primarily
a purely Norwegian exposition, but
that there was department called
1.-THE Emigrated Norway set aside
which was to tell of the progress Of
Norwegians who had cast their lot
in with other nations and it was here
that the North Dakota exhibit was
located. Most Of the exhibits were
of an agricultural character with
hundreds Of views of homes of Nor
wegians in North Dakota and models
Of different kinds.
The manager stated in the report
that from three to one hundred and
twenty thousand persons visited the
exposition daily and a great number
of them visited the North Dakota ex-
hibit. There were 10000 souvenirs
consisting of an imitation flour sack
with the great seal of North Dakota
printed On it given away and the ex-
hibit received many long compli-
mentary notices in the newspapers of
the entire nation. The fact that Gov
ernor Hanna made the trip to Nor
way and presented the Lincoln statue
to the nation was more appreciated
by the people Of Norway than any,
thing else that was done by any other
nation.
