NORWAY PLANS
GREAT JUBILEE
Marks Centennial of Rise Among
Nations as Independent
Kingdom.
WHAT MAY II REALLY MEANS
OF Peculiar Interest to Hundreds Of
Thousands Of Norwealans In the

tIon at kr~lstlanla.

Marking the one hundredth anniver.
sary of the rise of modern Norway
among the nations as an Independent,
self-governing kingdom, the seven
teenth Of May this year is Of peculiar
interest to about two and a quarter
million people living in Norway and
about t%wo-thirds as many Of their kins-
men In foreign countries, for the most
part In the United States and Canada.
The true meaning of this day can be
understood only In the light Of the
political history Of the countries Of
the far North. that is, of Denmark,
Norway and Sweden.
An account Of the events will be
given In order hat the reader may
realize that they naturally contribute
much to the enthusiasm with which
the N~orwegians, In all parts Of the
world, are preparing for the next W.
enteenth of May. For years the patri-
otto men and women Of Norway have
been planning and constructing build
ings for the jubilee exposition which
shortly will be opened to the public
in the capital of Norway. At the same

Norway will be at the Minnesota Fair
grounds at Minneapolis. The plan OF
this celebration Is very unique. A
number of years ago the Norwegians
in this country began to organize them
selves into what Is called bygdelag, or
unions. whose members hail from the
same settlement or section Of Nor
way. Every one Of them is named after
the locality from which its members
originally came. Those who came from
Valdres belong to the ValdreslaG
those who came from the vicinity OF
Trondhjem are members of the Iron
derlag. And SO we have such wierd
names as Sognalag, ~Solunslag and
Gu6brandsdalag. There ere about
thirty such unions. At the exposition
grounds each lag will have its head
quarters where each member will
have the chance Of his or her life to
talk with old nefghbors and revive old
memories. Many of those who come
from a distance are expected to spend
three days in the Twin Cities. Sew

government Of the United States sent
a representative. Chairman Foster of
the house mines committee, to New
York to confer with the young capital

the strike in the Rockefeller mines in
Colorado? Why should the United
States humiliate itself by such action
Why not demand the presence Of the
young man before the congressional
committee?

OF course. the young capitalist has
been taught from his infancy that
capitalism was superior to govern

Normal School Notes

A carload of oil has just been receided for the heating plant.
 All the old students are back from their vacation with but two exceptions. Several new students have taken their places.
 The last few days of good weather has started baseball. The Normal will have a good team this year.
 The Junior class was organized today prior to the annual clash with the Seniors. Both classes are exceptionally large so a good fight is expected.
 The eight new rooms in the boys dormitory are completed and occupied. These rooms have every modern convenience, and are much appreciated hy the students.
 Mir. Arthur T. LaPrade and MT. Lewis Linn Dunklin of Winslow stopped over a few days on their way back to school and paid all their old friends a little visit. MT. Dunklin is attending the U. of A. and MT. LaPrade is study ing law at the U. of Cal, in Berk- ley. Both were much pleased with the splendid showing the Normal has made in the last year both as to attendance and improve ments on the grounds.
 The lights are again burning brightly in the assembly of the Normal, casting their ray upon the Seniors who are diligently at work on their annual play, bene- fit performance. The cast is rather large and contains some we'll known local stars. most of whom were in the Junior play last year "The Time of His Life," in which most of the stars fea- tured, aroused more comment in our city than has any other local talent show for many years. Everyone had the time uf his life. So we expect to give you another joyful time on February 10th, when Cupid at Vassar' will be presented.
 The Normal has engaged in athletics with other schools of the state for the last five years. Dur ing that time it has played thirty basket ball games and won twenty two, making 73.oo of the games won.

 Financially the association has done well. This not only speaks we'll for the liberal donations of the town people but for the at- tendance at the games as we'll.
 The prospects for good basket ball teams next year are good and without doubt they will keep up the good record thus far estab- lished.

How Ashurst Escaped Death

urst:
 How Ashurst Escaped Death
 Born while his parents were em- igrating in a covered wagon from California to the southwest, where they planned to go into the sheep business, Henry F. Ashurst, one of the Senators from Arizona, has had many rough adventures. He was cowboy at the age of IS.
 II was large for my age." he told me, and could bulldog a yearling with the best of men. To bulldog a steer is to throw a lasso around his head or horns. That is quicker than to put the rope around his hind foot. I'd hear the order; Bulldog it, and would throw the lasso, run up on the steer, catch it by the horns and flank and throw it on the ground. Then the branding iron would be applied.
 Those were wild and gay days. While we were living in a canyon, where the grass was long and sweet, rider came through saying the Apaches were on the warpath. 1 was 5 years old, but can remem- Der how the horseman looked and the terror his news caused my mother. She barricaded the door of our log cabin-my father was away from home at that time loaded rifle and said; I'll shoot you children if the Indians come and then shoot myself" and she would have done it. The Indians however, went somewhere else.
 But 1 had a narrower escape from death than that when 1 grew up. l was being shaved one day in a barber shop. A bad man named Hardesty came through the door with a gun in one hand and a long knife in the other. He had killed several cowpunchers, saloon keepers and gamblers. Nobody cared overmuch to see him around whether he was drunk or sober. "The day l speak about, Hard esty was deep enough in liquor to be more dangerous than usual, I'm looking for Ashurst' he roared. When find him Pm going to cut his heart out The barber fled. And there l was stretched out in the chair, feet on 
 the rest, long cloth around my neck and father all over my face.
 It was critical moment for yours truly. Had 1 attempted a belligerent movement l would have been shot just as 1 lay and that wouldn't have sounded heroic in the COW country.
 Dancing on his toes, for he knew he had me foul, Hardesty paraded around the barber chair, circling his knife over his head and saying, Pm going to butcher you right now"
 The knife was getting nearer and nearer my neck. I concluded to take a chance and mix it up with the brute at close quarters, but man came in, got the drop on Hardesty and marched him out into the street."
 No wonder man should like to be United States Senator and get away from a country where you had to wade around in blood all forenoon and spend the after noon cutting notches in your gun and burying the dead.
 As Sam Blythe ably says in the Saturday Evening Post: "Ashurst made vigorous and forceful argu- ment against the frequent adjourn ments of the senate and the attend ant waste of the peoples time, the speech was of such force that the senate promptly adjourned until the following morning.
