PARIS, France, May 20.—The Swedish Finns, who comprise one- tenth of the population of Finlans and from among whom most of the upper class Is recruited, are probably of somewhat mixed blood. Physically they resemble their ancestors, the Swedes cf Sweden, but in character they seem to be somewhat harder and more aggressive. The Finnish Finns, who comprise the other nine-tenths of the popula- tlon, are a race apart, related neither to the Scandinavians of Sweden nor to the Slavs of Russia. They have pink faces and sparse brown or light hair, but the broad cheeks, the slant of the gray eyes, the slight flattening of ihe features betray their far-off Asiatic origin. It 12 sometimes difficult to distin- Buish them by appearance from Swedish Finns, though in the more €'Areme types it is easy. But thelr 'mperament is distinctly marked and lends itself to no confusion. They are stolid, brooding, harsh, unforgiv- ing, unforgetting, vengefyl. They are slow and set in their ideas, stubborn, tenacious, faithful, addicted ta “causes” and ‘“movements.” They are honest, upright, hospitable and blunt of speech. They are individ- ualistic, democratic, self-confident. Finns Are Good Soldiers. The men want only “dignified"” work, preferably outdoor work. They refuse to be rvants or to serve in shops—they leave these occupations to the “Swedes.” They are undisci- plined and suspicious and some have ugly tempers, but they accept disci- pline loyally provided they have first been convinced as to the cause. They fought for centuries in Sweden’s con- quering armies and are vallant sol- diers. Hunters originally and woodsmen and lumberjacks now, the Finn men, who otherwise more or less resemble other northern peoples in dress and looks, practically all wear long-bladed sheath knives at their belts, which in outdoor life are of service to them in a variety of ways, but the carrying of which is so natural to the race, so characteristic, that even one or two of their statesmen have been known to attend official receptions with a “‘puukko knife” slung under the tails of their diplomatic dress coats. The Finns drink only periodically, but when they drink they drink with flerce enargy. This does not mean, however, that at other times they are not the calmest and most peaceful of men. Country of Small Farms. Finland is a_country not of villages but of isolited farms and good-sized market towns. The traveler is struck by the beauty of the ever-present for- est—low hills and overgrown granite crags and bowlders, whose mantle of pine and birch is mirrored in the clear waters of countless lakes begemmed with tiny islands. Here and there in the forest is a clearing, with fields and rail fences and a frame or log farmhouse snuggled under a huge block of mossy granite and a great red barn near by and a little steam bathhouse, The women wear shawls over their heads, the men wear round fur hats. Here, and there is a country town with its frame-built Lutheran church, and if it is Sunday one may see a crowd of country people rowing to church across a lake in a long boat with perhaps eight or ten pairs of oars. Three cities—Abo, Viborg and Ham- merfors—have populations of more than 50,000. Near them are the fine modern factories of the dominant lum- ber and paper industries. Helsingfors, the capital, with 250,000 inhabitants, is one of the finest modern cities of northern Europe, with a great busy port, fine stone buildings, clean, broad streets, handsome shops’ well stocked and a prosperous, industrious, highly cultured population, thoroughly breast of the times in every respect. Most forelgn visitors are greatly sur- prised to find in this far northern land a civilization so highly developed, with theaters, architecture, art, music, lit- erature, education, great industries and all modern conveniences, clean, orderly, efficient. Perfectly Capable of Defense. And when one sees a detachment of the regular army swing by—pink- faced, blond youths in long gray coats. steady and determined looking, under the blue-and-white banner of the re- public—or a parade of the civic guard on a Saturday afternoon, business men and bovs and sober elderly citi- zens all carrying rifies and marching in uniforms with white arm bands in defense of their homes and their coun- try against the peril of Bolshevism, one can feel little doubt as to Fin. land’s ability to maintain to the full its recently achieved independence. Now, just a_word as to the little steam-bath cabin that stands near every Finnish farmhouse. The steam bath s known in parts of Russia and in certain other regions of eastern Europe, but nowhere else does it at- tain the rank of a national institution as in Finland. In the center of the cabin is an oven of dark granite stones, fitted accurately together with- out cement. A great fire is built there and when the oven is red hot there is poured over it water. which Immedi- ately is converted to steam, filling the cabin and raising the temperature to a high degree. There the entire fam- ily comes to bathe—mother, father, boys, girls and sometimes visiting rel- atives and neighbors—all naked, chaste and unconsciously unashamed, together. The Finns, indeed, although North- erners and good Christian Lutherans, are unique in being as free as the ancient Greeks from the prudishness or pruriency of nudity. In Summer men and women swim together, boys and girls romp along the lake sides, all innocently nude: The Finnish bank notes are elegantly engraved with a group of three men, two women and a youth, nude, represent- ing the dignity and chastity of civil- ized human society. Steam Bath a Source of Heaith. The steam bath is used throughout the year, at least once a week, but in Summer many families bathe every evening after long, hard days in the harvest flelds. Shelves or platforms are fixed about the walls. Those who want more heat lie or sit upon the upper shelves; those who want less, on the lower.

Special Dispatch to The Star. FREDERICKSBURG, Va., June 26. —To acquaint the people of Freder- icksburg with the battlefield-marker movement a community dinner was held at the Princess Anne Hotel last evening. The Chamber of Commerce, Rotary, Kiwanis and Women's Clubs are sponsoring the move, and many guests from Spotsylvania County and elsewhere were present. There are sections in northern France where great massés of troops were intrenched for long periods, on which many thousands of men were killed, but outside of these the area surrounding Fredericksburg forms the &reatest battlefield in the world. Ex- cept for monuments here and there erected by Individual commands or States, the section has long remained unmarked and unrecognized officially. The United States Government recent- ly created a commission and appro- priated a small amount to make a preliminary survey of the situation with a view of permanently marking the many places of interest. 6,000 INTERESTED IN WAGE REVISION Negotiating Concluded Affecting Pay and Working Conditions of Pennsy Railway Telegraphers. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, June 26.—Nego- tiations for revision of the wages and working conditions of the 6,000 teleg- raphers of the Pennsylvania Ratlroad system have peen brought to a ‘“‘suc- cessful conclusion,” the company an- nounced yesterday. Details of the revision were not announced. The negotiations were conducted under the employe representation plan adopted by the men and management, the statement said. ““Adjustment of pay and changes in working conditfons,” ment continued, “will be put into effect as a result of these mutual negotiations. The serfes of confer ences and the conclusions resulting therefrom will tend to cement more closely the friendly relationship be- tween the management and its em- ployes in the telegraph department. The sums appropriated and available for wage adjustments will be allotted to the various divisions and their applications to the positions on each division will be worked out jointly be- tween representatives of the employes and the representatives of the man- agement. “The wage revisions agreed upon have largely been the result of the work of the joint fact-finding commit tee, appointed earlier in the vear to represent both the management and the employes, This committee pre. sented its report some weeks ago, fol- lowing which the negotiations were resumed and have now been carried to | completion. . “During the conferences at which questions were discussed the telegraph department employes were represent- ed by 51 chafrmen. covering the vari- ous divisions of the system. They were headed by M. J. Kelly, general chairman of the craft. The management was represented ¢ C. I Leiper, assistant general man ager, eastern region: H. A.

WINCHESTER, Va., June 26.—Dis- covery of two dungeons under the main building of the Frederick County | parish farm was made today b plumbers while excavating for a ne vapor heating system at the institu- tion. There were no windows or doors in the dungeons, and a trapdoor at the top of each had been sealed up for many yvears. The building was erect- ed in 1821, and it is supposed the dun- geons were constructed at that time for the incarceration of unruly in- mates of the parish farm. Shenandoah Over New York. EW_ YORK, June 26 (#.—The Navy dirigible Shenandoah cruised leisurely over the lower harbor today and attracted the attention of thou- sands in the skyscrapers in the finan- clal district. Next week she is sched- uled to fiy to Maine, and today’s flight was in the nature of a test. She left her station at Lakehurst, N. J., about 9 _o'clock_this morning. lightly all over with birch switches, then wash themselves and finish with a cold shower, or a plunge in lake or stream, or in Winter, a dive into a snow bank. To_the institution of the steam bath the Finns attsibute the health and hardiness of their pepole, and the sup- pleness and fitness of their athletes, whose first care when they go abroad to Olympic games is to rig up a steam bath in their training quarters. When a member of the family is taken with fever he is immediately carried to the steam bath and sweated. There, too, the babies of rural Finland are born. not in the midst of sream, but on a bed brought close beside the granite oven whose comfortable heat welcomes them into the world. I suppose there is no people—not even the Japanese or the Moslems or the Americans— who are cleaner of body than are the Finns. (Copyright, 1925, by Chicago Daily News Co.) LOST.

Sydney, Nova Scotia, coaling sta-| tion for the MacMillan Arctic Ex- pedition under the auspices of the Natlonal Geographic Soclety is the Subject of the following communica- tion to the soclety from Catherine MacKenzie, issued as a bulletin from the organization’s headquarters here. “Sydney shares with North Sydney, opposite, one of the finest ports in North America, a_harbor three miles wide a: its mouth, five miles long and having an_area of twenty-five square miles. During the late war thousands of American troops were convoyed to France from this port when " even Halifax was temporarily threatened by submarines. “It was a garrison town until the Crimean war, and from that heritage it has_some well-planned streets— two of them, now ‘Charlotte’ and ‘George’ Streets were once more pic- turesquely ‘Queen Charlotte’ and ‘King George'. Settled by British. “Sydney was_settled 3,000 United Empire Loyalists. It was named in honor of England's then Secretary of State upon whose advice Cape Breton Island was made a separate province. { pe Breton Island has the most | extensive coal deposits in Canada,| and the only coal at tidewater on the Atlantic coast. The Sydneys—there are three of them: Sydney, North Sydney and Sydney Mines—are the center of the great mining and steel industry which now comprises as well the coal deposits of Pictou and Cumberland Countles and the steel plant at New Glasgow. in 1784 by Doorway to Europe. Nova Scotia is the most easterly province of Canada and is all but surrounded by the sea. Situated far out in the Atlantic, these coasts were alike the haunt of Norse rovers in the tenth century, and the landfall of John Cabot—the first sighting of the continent of North America of | which there is record. The earliest known landing in the New World w that of the younger Cabot, who visited Cape ~Breton Island _(the smaller of the two islands of Nova Scotia) a year before Columbus reached the mainland. Upon this landing England based her claim in the long struggle for its possession that_ensued with France. “From these earliest maritime be zinnings Nova Scotia has continued to be the most maritime of all the! so-called ‘Maritime Provinces’. No | part of the province is farther than| 30 miles from the sea, and there are tales of ships—frigate-of-war, pri vateer, pirate and buried treasure. | for every mile of her harbor-indented coast. And she still is—will always be—the gateway of the Atlantic. Her ports are 600 miles nearer to those of Europe than is, for instance, New York;: and so far easterly is her projection that the shipping of Syd ney and Louisbourg and Halifax is Jloser to Rio de Janerio than that of New Orleans. French Still Spoken. “Historically Nova Scotia is a land of first things—the first European settlement north of Florida: the first road in Canada, built by the French soon after 1604: the first representa- tive government: and the first uni- versity in Canada—the oldest, too. in the British Empire outside of the British Isles. Here the first Atlantic cable was lrgded, and here Marconi ent his first wireless message be- “In the Acadian settlements, both on the west coast and in Cape Breton. the French of Louis XIV is still spoken, and in the ruins of old Fort Anne, of Louisbourg and many another stronghold, the visitor may retrace the long struggle between gland and France in the New World. As Gaelic as Scotland. “Between 1773 and 1828 more than | 00 Scotch Highlanders emigrated to Nova Scotia, a stream that has| made portions of the country, espe clally Cape Breton Island., as Gaelic s the most Gaelic part of Scotland. “There are still communities of their descendants where the Gaelic | tongue that hurled deflance at Caesar from the shores of Britain 2,000 years ago: churches where sermons in both | languages may be heard: glens where and bronzed kilted Highlanders— | Nova Scotia Highlanders now—made | common cause with English Lovalist | and French Acadian. | Known to U.

Apart from the effect of the Gulf Stream, the nearness of the ocean gives a milder climate than that of many more southern parts of the mainland.” WHITE MEN ROB NEGRO.

Hargroves re- ported the assault and robbery to po- lice of the first precinct, who are in- vestigating it today.
