gun In the district courL-at waseca

widespread attention among both
railroad Official and employees. Mr..
Tierney was a. passenger conductor
on the defendant road with twenty
six years OF exemplary and contin-

Prince Olav of Norway Has a Slight Chance
 of Wearing Grown

Although he is the eldest son of a monarch, and the heir to a throne, and withaI sturdy, healthy lad, Crown Prince OIav has but a slight chance of ever wearing the crown of a Norwegian king. Republican senti- ment has grown so powerful in the Scandinavian countries that many astute observers of international poli- tics believe that the days of kingship. inN Norway, Sweden and Denmark are numbered, and that at most it will only be a matter of a few years until the last vestige of royalty is wiped out. All of the Scandinavian rulers are good and able men, and person ally have the respect of their so-caI1ed subjects-but- real nasters-and this is especially true of Haakon VII, who, as Prince Charles of Denmark, was elevated to the Norwegian throne a decade ago, when Norway threw off allegiance to the Swedish crown. Yet Haakon is now king in name only. Originally he had but little power, and gradually he has been deprived of ev- cry vestige of sovereignty. Last year he was deprived of the right to con- fer decorations, the very last of his prerogatfves, and now his only duty is to smile and look pleasant and do exactly as the ministers tell him to do. Crown Prince O1av, the heir to this empty honor, will be twelve years old tomorrow, having been born at Apple ton House, Sandringham. England. July 3, 1908. His father was then only a, prince of the Danish royal family, and his mother Princess Maud third daughter of the late King Ed ward VII. of Great Britain. Their son was christened Alexander Edward Christian Frederick, but when he was two years old his father was elected to the Norwegian throne, and the in fant's name was changed to OIaW, a good old Morse name borne by many Norwegian monarchs. Prince OlaV is destined for naval career, and while he may never be permitted to sit upon the throne, it is quite with lin the realm of possibility that he may become an admiral. Prince OIav is the only child of the Norwegian King and Queen, but it is said that he is entire unspoi1ed by the extra ordinary betting he receives from his parents and his numerous royal reIa- tives.

COUNT OF TURIN

Prince Victor, Count of Turin, one of the most brilliant of the royal of hcers of the Italian army, is forty-hve years old. He holds the rank of lieu tenant general, the highest in the Italian army except the title of gem eraI, which is conferred only upon those who have led an Italian army in actual warfare. The CoUn off Tur- in is the second son of the late Prince Amedeo, son of King Victor Elm manuel II. His elder brother, Duke Emmanuel of AoSta, is also a lieuten- ant general, and his younger brother, Luigi, Duke of the Abruzzi, is the head of the Italian navy. Another brother, Prince Humbert, Count of Salerni, is also in the army. The lat ter is only the half-brother of the Count of Turin and the Dukes of Aosta. and Abruzzi, as his mother, Princess Letitia, sister of Prince Napoleon Bonaparte, was the second wife of Prince Amedeo. The Count of Turin, who joined his regiment immed ediately upon Italy's declaration of hostilities against Austria, is a bachelor, but he figured in a romantic incident some years ago. Miss Mary Newby, Q Cali fornia, spinster who had long resided in Florence, became wildly infatuated with the handsome Savoy prince, and all unknown to the Count, was con stunned with love for him. When she
 
 sympathetic Italians-she left her for tune, amounting to about three-quar- ters of a million dollars, to the\ man she had long loved in secret and in silence. At the time of the death of the California woman she was mid- dle-aged, while the Count was only in his middle thirties. Like his young CT brother, the Duke of the Abruzzi- at one time the reputed suitor for the hand of Miss E1kins, the American heiress-the Count of Turin is noted as an explorer, and has made several expediti ons into the jungles of the dark continent, and has also explored the Himalayas. He visited America some years ago. His father, as Amadeo l., was King of Spain from 1870 to 1873, but was forced to abdi- cate the throne to which he had been called by a faction of the Spanish people, then engaged in a dynastic and republican civil war.

Hyphenated Citizens

The first use of the word "hyphe- mated" as term of reproach to Amer ican citizens of divided allegiance was probably in a letter written to Presi- dent Mckinley by John Hay, secre- tary of state, whose distinguished
 career ended with his death ten years ago today. In 1899 Hay Wrote to the
 President: t"The hyphenated Germans are so frantica1ly unjust toward us that nothing we could do would have any effect upon their bowling, so think we will have to decide the mat ter without reference to them" At that time the relations between the United States and Germany had been strained almost to the breaking point. In 1898 the Kaiser's government, act ing with Austria and Spain, asked England to join them in curbing American ambition and ending the war America was waging on Spain an invitation, immediately, rejected sby

Australia Recruiting
 Takes a Big Boom

Melbourne. Australia. July 1.-PubM- cation of casualty lists has given re- crufting an impetus throughout Aus tralia. The story of the lighting at the Dardane1les particularly has tntro- duced a new factor into the Australian view of the war and the Defense De- partment finds that volunteers have been increased by 8 most desirable class. The Government continues, however, to do little to persuade men to join. This course is partially dic- tated by the fact that 1t cannot supply arms or munitions as fast as it would like to.
 The difficulty lies chiefly in the lack of skilled labor at the Federal small arsm factory at Lithgow in New South Wales, whence come all the Common wea1th's rifles, and the fact that the hands now employed do not work more than the strictly regulation union hours.

INTERNATIONAL EGG
 LAYING CONTEST

The race for supremacy in the egg laying contest at Storrs, cannot yet be decided or even predicted. Hereto fore the English birds have in way sort of enjoyed an acknowledged su- periority inasmuch as they have reg u1a.rly ranked high each year. In fact Barron's Wyandottes were a, close sec ond in the contest last year and his Ieghorns were an easy first in the comp petition two years ago, but Amer ican bred birds are coming to the front A Vermont pen of Rhode IsI- and Reds have passed the English mans Wyandottes and a pen of White Leghorns from Ca1verton, N. Y., have passed the Englishman's Leghorns.
 The total production for all pens in the thirty-fourth week amounted to 3977 eggs, 143 less than for the preceding week but relatively IA more than for the corresponding week last year. Dictograph Poultry Farms White Leghorns from West Nyack, N. Y., easily won first for the week with 59 eggs to their credit. Wind sweep Farm, Bedding Ridge, and Branford Farms, Groton, both White Leghorns, tied for second with 56 eggs each, while four pens, namely, N. w. Hendryx, New Haven; Bran ford Farms, Groton; A. L. Sondereg- ger, South Coventry, and James V. Thomas, Ballston Lake, N. Y, all White Leghorns, tied for third with 55 eggs each.
 The management of the contest is now ready to send out rules and reg ulations and entry blanks for the coming competition which will open next November. A good many breed CTS have, however, been unwilling to wait and have accordingly, sent along their entry fees so as to surely get their birds into the coming contest. Pens of White and Barred Rocks. White Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds, White Leghorns, Black Leg horns, have already been accepted

Dexterous Handling of Presi-

With Lumber Wagons.

WINDSOR, Vt. June 30.-President
Wilson had a narrow escape from
what might have been serious au-
tomobile accident this morning, when
his car. turning sharp bend in the
road to the golf course, encountered
two heavily loaded lumber wagons.
A dexterous handling OF the wheel of
the presidents machine and a sharp
turn into the ditch got the car by
without scratch.
The president arose at 7 o'clock,
and a few minutes later was off on a
twenty mile ride for IS holes of golf
at Hanover, n. II. He rode on the
front seat with the driver, with Dr.
Grayson occupying the tonneau. The
trip was made at a fast clip, the
president enjoying the speed.
Tomorrow afternoon the president
will push an electric button located
at Harlakden House which will nn-
loosen the flag and start the Will
son Day celebration at the San Fran

Angeles, were still here today, vainly
endeavoring to secure an audience
