Stockholm, Sweden, Feb. 6.--Strik-

monstration today in favor of the in

10000 participants were told by King
Gustave that the problem of Swedish
defense must be settled without loss
OF time.
The &rmy of petitioners which had
waited on the outskirts of the Swedish
capital since yesterday was greeted
with enthusiasm as it marched through
the streets to the palace where King
Gustave was waiting to receive it.
The procession was a very pictures
que one. composed of small land own
ers and farmers from every part of
the kingdom. Some of them had travel
ed 200 or 500 miles in order to take
part in the demonstration.
Their petition to the king stated that
they were ready to make all the ne
cessary sacrifices to defend their
country and to assure its Independence
and demanded that the matter be
taken in hand forthwith. The king,
replying from the palace portico. said
that he was in hearty accord with the
desire.
"On that point" he declared. 'T am
determined not to yield. The fleet of
Sweden must also be strengthened .

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Chicago, Feb. 6.-Investigation of a
mysterious errand which resulted in
the drowning of three men last night
in the icy waters of Lake Michigan
while they were making efforts to
reach a water intake crib in small
boat was begun today by city author
tiles.
William F. Cannen, keeper of the
crib, Stephen Varley, and man
named Wilson started for the crib in
a small open boat which was wrecked
in the ice. The men shouted for help
and hundreds of people lined the shore,
helpless to aid them while they gain
ed a big block of ice to which they
chung for an hour before slipping into
the water.
At first it was supposed Canneu had
attempted to take a physician to the
crib to attend his wife. Later, how
ever, two women who gave their names
as May Smith and Mary Wade were
taken from the crib in a police boat
They said Cannell and mis- comPan-
ions had gone for provisions.
Search for the bodies among the
ice floes of Lake Michigan was aban-
doned today when it was seen that
the pack see was too heavy for tugs
to break.

The Water Key of P%laquemines
Parish.

In 1886, so the people living at that date
have told US, the great Carnaervon levee, just
within the upper line of Plaquemines Parish,
gave way and a very destructive crevasse oc-
CURED. The levee at that place has to our
knowledge, which covers nearly fifty wears,
been the most dangerous one insofor as height
is concerned, In the Parish Of Plaquemines.
Fortunately for our parish there has been no
crevasse in that leyee since that time. There
have been some narrow escapes, however, and
when the water. was running over the public
levee in front of Poydras street in New Orleans
in 1880 the river water at Carnaervon was run
ming over the top Of the levee for nearly a mile
in length, but was quickly cared for and no
damage occurred.
This particular levee has been under the
most careful observation Of our most skillful
engineers, it having long ago been recognized
as relatively the highest levee in the parish, in

An Incident of the School Question in
Plaquemines Parish.

In Plaquemines Parish, with its two hundred
miles OF coast line. one hundred miles on each
side of the river and With the river SO wide and
SO deep that crossing it for school purposes is
not practicable, the school question has always
been a very important ope and has complica-
tons that don't exist in the other parishes of the
state where the areas are not so elongated. In
this parish there is considerable difficulty in
getting good school teachers, owing to our linz
tied population and the considerable distances
that have to be travelled in order to reach the
schoolhouses. Our school superintendent in a
general way, however have overcome these diff
fculties of the locations and all the schools have
gwen fairly general satisfaction.
There has remained, however. one serious
difficulty and that is the securing of proper
board for our school teachers. The school teach
ers OF Piaquemines Parish stand high so far as
their educational advantages are concerned.
ana yet owing to the apparent poverty of the
parish and the remoteness Of some of the
schools, these school teachers, graduates Of the
New Orleans High School and Normal School
and OF the State Normal School, and of a gem
eral high standing, are not always able to Sc
cure satisfactory places to board. In fact. we
have heard CT at least one instance where It
was absolutely impossible to secure any place at
which to board and the teacher was compelled
TO resign her position for lack Of accommoda-
ions, and yet there were many children there
anxious to be taught.
This fact leads US to make the suggestion to
our people in Plaquemines Parish that thew
ought to be willing to make some personal sac
rlflces IN order to accommodate the school teach.
es Who come into our parish. AS the distances
are 50 great they cannot we'll be Travelled daily
ana II Is necessary to have some place in the
vicinity OF each school house where the school
teachers may board. As q rule our teachers
would be content with very moderate board and
would cheerfully accept whatever was the c1s.
tom OF the households that would furnish the
board and lodging. =
It Is q natural discomfort to any family to
ask . person who is a comparative stranger to
