Just then severe feminine face
inserted itself at the carriage window.

ole Bulls COLONY
.NorWegian's Dream Of Model
Home Now Scene Of Ruin.
Recalls Misplaced Confidence and
Made All the More Tragic Because
Of Splendid Ideals.

Only the ruin of the villa "Valhalla"
remains of the Inflated Norwegian col
ony established by Ole Bull in Pennsyl-
vania in the late SOS. The story Of
the colony, says the Kansas City
Times, is one Of misplaced confidence,
made all the more tragic because Of
the splendid ideals that led to it's es-
adjustment.
The great Norwegian violinist, al
ways an admnr Of America, wished
to obtain location for model colony
of his countrymen. He bought a thou
sand acres of a firm Of land dealers
and soon afterward brought TO this
country several hundred Norwegians,
A clearing was made, the village Of
Oleana built and, in an address to the
townspeople, Ole Bull set forth the
hopes that had inspired his mission.
The address follows:
brothers of Norway! From the
cline where the north wind has it's
home; where the maelstrom roars, and
where the aurora for half the year
takes the place of the genial sun, we
have come to find home. When we
were among our mountains, and war
was bringing want and famine upon
US, we heard there was a country in a
milder climate where liberty dWelt and
plenty reigned. Upon looking over our
records, we found that our country.
men,, under Thorfn, had discovered
that land more than eight hundred
years ago, but that they were met by:
cruel and savage Indians, and had left
no record of themselves, except some
traces Of their sad history engraven
in the rocks of Fall river, and one tenn
pie which they raised to God on an
island at the mouth of Narragansett
bay. All other record of them had
passed away. ..-
'How different is our reception from
that which Thorfin and his followers.
received. No savage Indian startles us
with his war Whoop, but kind friends
meet us on every side, taking us by the
hand and giving us WELCOME to our
new home ......
brothers of Norway! We must not
ulSdppOluC IulS commence, Out Dy
lives of industry and honesty show to
our new brothers that they have not
misplaced their friendship
"And now, to these gentlemen of
New York and Pennsylvania, who have
so kindly assisted by their counsel and
advice in this work, return my most
sincere and heartfelt thanks, and cast
ing ourselves upon the goodness of our
heavenly Father, resting secure upon
his promise, let us go on in the daily
performance Of every duty, and he
will bless U.S."
There was a pathetic aftermath.
Hardly had the pioneers got well un-
der way with their BODYBUILDING when
it was discovered that the violinist had
been victim1zed. The company that
sold him the land had no valid title to
it. The people of Oleana scattered,
some of them penniless and with few
friends in the new country. Ole Bull,
with splendid loyalty to those he had
brought to this pass, gave public con-
certs to raise money for their relief.

The Smallest Cartoon.

A certain small boy has drawn a
caricature picture Of President Wilson
upon single grain Of corn. He spent
about half hour in doing the work,
for which he used water colors, says
Christian Science Monitor. It is said
that some time ago he drew a similar
picture upon single grain of corn
and, upon sending his work to the pres
ldent, he received an appreciative ac-
acknowledgement from Washington. This
is believed to be the smallest cartoon
picture in the world, for it measures
only about a quarter of an inch In
