Ch%ristiania, Norway, - Especially -
Events of far reaching Importance are
likely soon to draw the attention Of
the world to the Scandinavian PENN
sula; Both Norway and Sweden are
seething with political unrest n the
abdication Of the kings of both these
countries in the near future would not
surprise close observers.
Should political unrest here find ex-
preston In civil dissension, two ma
lions, Russia and Germany, would
watch developments with greatest in
terest. 1t cannot be doubted that
either country would grab a part or
all Of Scandinavia If this could be done
without serious objections from the
other great powers
To those who are familiar with
what Russia has been doing in Fin
land, her clear purpose Of aggression
has been quite evident.
Within the past few years the gauge
OF the Finish railways has been altered
80 that Russian trains can run on
them; h former need of crossing the
river by ferryboat at st. Petersburg in
order to take train for Finland has
been abolished by the construction Of q
bridge; large supply depots and bar
racks have been erected at suitable
points along the Finnish railroads; and,
finally, Russia has gradually placed an
army Of approximately SO, 900 men in
Finland without any reason connected
with the state Of that country
The deduction is obvious. Russia in
ENDS to seek Its i~ce-free port in one
of the northwestern fijords of Norway;
and in order to do this she Is prepares
to seize such territory in Norway and
In Sweden as will give her an unin-
terrupted Ian route from St. Peters
burg.

mats In Copenhagen three years ago

that an arrangement had been made
between Russia and Germany under
which the former was to have a free
hand in the north in exchange for
granting the latter a free hand in re-
gard to Denmark. This. however, is
mere guess work.
In Sweden there are plenty of So
cialist papers advocating a republic.
but the king himself is personally
popular with the people. They admire
his strength n courage in maintain
ing his own opinions, and his queen,
the German Princess Victoria of Baden.
has made q place for herself in their
hearts. The Swedish socialists could
not easily establish a republic as long
as the queen of Sweden lives.
In Norway the situation is different.
Norway is hostile to it's king in every
part Of the country. n particularly
hostile to its queen. Queen Maud re-
fuses to %patronize Norway's shops or to
encourage the Norwegian industries or
encourage her subjects to do it. Nor
Weg1an ladies ambitious to bask in
royal favor olloW her example and go
to London and Paris for their clothes,
for their Christmas presents, ever for
the food served at their balls and ban
quets, importing everything at ruinous
expense, to follow the fashionable lead.
Queen Maud apparently is tired of
the king business" up here, so remote
from her beloved England, and the
world need not be surprised to hear
any day that she has persuaded her
husband to abdicate. After that it
will be a republic. If the people are able
to get what they want.
In Sweden the monarchy may last
much longer, and King Gustav may,
with the help of his queen who is not
yet ready to lay aside her crown, re-
main on the throne for the rest Of his
! life.

THE RISE AND FALL OF
THE DISCUSSED TANGO

The early 1SS0's saw the rise and fall
Of the roller skate.
During the 1905 the bicycle came,
saw, conquered and passed into regret
table desuetude. !.
The first decade of the goth century
witnesses no pronounced fad in frolick-
Ing, perhaps because it brought the
opening OF the automobile era; but now
IN the second decade, we are in the full
swing Of the new dance craze, with the
tango overshadowing the turkey trot,
bunny hug and other immediate and
Mustrious predecessors.
Like the wheel and the skate, the
tango Is denounced because Of those
who abuse 1t, and commended because
of those who fine it a graceful and
healthful exercise. It's prevalence is
largely due to psychological influences
1t ts another manifestation of the
Psychology Of the crowd"-and those
who seek to suppress 1t are fighting the
air.
The test Of a dance is perhaps in it's
endurance. Does anybody really ex-
pect the tango still to be marked on the
a programs Of the world at large,
as the waltz is, after more than a cen
fury Of changes in music and dancing?
Indeed, it is probable that the waltz
has survived several centuries, since
good authorities identify 1t with La
Volta" a three-time movement intro
duced in 1856 at the court of Henry II
at Fontainebleau. This dance was
literally hated" out Of Scotland,
where Mary Stuart once tripped
through its whirling steps, its origna-
tors being accused Of w1tchcraft.
Raikes relates in his journal that in
London, about 1911, mornings which
had hitherto been devoted to lounging
IL h park were devoted to practicing
the new dance, often whirling a chair
waltz was danced by a few bold spri-
Its" including Lord Palmerston, the
Princess Esterhazy and Baron Neu-
mann, and people stood on benches
around the room to look at the exhibit
ton Owe the heads Of others, even as
now they stand n crowd to look at
the tango.
The United States among dancing
nations Is in the peculiar position Of
having to import most Of It's dances.
Native to the soil are only a few jigs,
reels, clogs, breakdowns, cake-walks,
etc, mostly originating among southern
plantation hands. In Italy, France
Germany, Poland, Switzerland, Spain
Scotland and other old world countries,
on the other hand, are national dances
which have endured from generation to
generation. These dances express
something Of the spirit Of the lands
and tho peoples. The tango, as all the
world is dancing it, expresses nothing
but an hours exuberance and demand
for novelty, and this fact adds
strength to tho likelihood that its reign

You Don't Know Your Voice.
From the Boston Post.

From the Boston Post.
You have long known that you do
not see yourself as others see you. Do
you know that you don't heal yourself
as other hear you?
Laroy, a French scientist, declares a
person does not really know his own
voice. He had several persons, all in
innate friends, record a few sentences
on a phonograph together. When tie
records We're reproduced the persons
could more easily recognize the voices
Of their friends than their own.
This Is due, Laroy says, to the differ
ence in the quality of the tone. When
a man speaks he hears his own voice,
not only through the air as other do,
but it passes through his lungs, throat
and mouth. The sound thus has a Diff
ferent timber from that conducted to
the ear onlv by the air.
Another way to prove this Is to put
the end Of a wooden rod between the
teeth and pronounce a vowel contin-
ually. Have another person put the
other end Of the rod between his teeth
and stop up his ears. He will find the
sound stronger than when it reached
him through the air. The tone is also
Of different quality.

An important find has been made in
the art collections of Marchese della

C~aravaggio, which had been lost sight
of for many years. The painting was
known to connoisseurs through a print
In the Galleria degli Ufizzi.
Sig di Pietro, the secretary of this
gallery, was determined to find the
picture. 1t was known that in the

painting and Immediately identified it..

Why Is an Alley.

A number of cities in various parts of
the country have taken steps to abolish
the alley. One reason for their abolish
ment is Law suits as the result of acct
dents in alleys not properly protected for
the safety Of the public. Some cities have
never had alleys within the CORPORATE
limits al have found It less expensiye to
have an alleyless city. Look up and down
any alley, and too often you will find 1t
far from spotless. 1t is dirty, a breeding
place for disease, a hiding place for
thieves, a dumping ground where refuse
of an inf1aInmable character is often seen.
and where mischievous boys get into trou-
bic. Cities where there are no alleys have
found that coal and other things may
be k in the front way as well as from
the rear. 1t has cost the city less since
the street cleaning department needs no
fund to keep alleys clean. There is much
to pc said against the alley, and very
much less in its defense.

Nearly "a centuries have passed
