DEN MARK.

One of the queer men of Horsens
died under peculiar conditions. Many
years ago he kept store, and he was
supposed to have saved about $4,000.
After he quit this business he rented a
small room on the second floor of a
building on the main street of the
city. III spite of his wealth he lived
like a typical miser. This filthy,
repulsive person was known by every
body in town. His garments were
ragged, his hat was full of holes. He
finally became so extremely objection
able that the executive committee Of
the trades union of the city decided
to shut him out of it's reading room,
where he had been in the habit of
studying the quotations and reports
Of the exchange. He paid city tax
of about $475. He did not hide his
money as some misers do in the old
countries, but he invested it in stocks,
SO that he had the joy of knowing that
he became richer every day. A few
days ago he was found in the coal box
outside of his room. He was taken
to the hospital, but was SO far gone
that he soon died. The physicians
claimed that he died of undernourish-
ment. For many years he lived main
ly on rolls and but:ermilk. His heirs
are three brothers.
Heavy fines have been imposed up
on Danish merchants who have vio-
lated the guaranty given by the DAN

British governments that goods i'm
ported from those countries should
not be re-exported to any country with
which the allies are at war. In sew
eral cases the fines have caused bank
ruptcy. In the riksdag Premier Zahle

And what are the advantages which
we owe so far to this protection :?
Various breaches of our neutrality in

Industrial development In the Scan:
dtnavian countries has resulted in
checking emigration from Sweden,
Norway and Denmark. Within ths
last 20 years the Scandinavian coun'
tries, through the more extensive use
OF water power, nearly trebled the
horsepower used in their industries.
AS consequence the growing de-
mand for laborers was considerably
greater than the increase in popula-
ton. 1t is safe to assert that for e
long time after the war the Scandi-
navian industries will be kept busy
with orders from former belligerents,
who, especially during the first period
OF reconstruction following the con-
fluston of peace, will be in need of all
the help they can get from the Scan
dinavian industries.
The water power utilized in the in
dustries of Sweden at the beginning
of this year aggregated $4,000 horse
power. The power stations in the
process of construction will add IS 5000
horsepower.

holm disposed of 10000 sacks of wood

ment's credit is on par with that OF
any country in the world.
