Svend Svendson, long known to his countrymen, has won a high place in the wide world of art. being closely watched art lovers, for he worker, and every new picture reveals some new trait of his talent. He is best own for his snow scenes, but he is a ster of landscape pair g, and his is by no means limited to a s, which he handles with skill that each picture is quite different from the other. Recently Mr. Svendsen hb hung in a well known Chicago gallery a paint- ing which compels attention from all critics. It is only a commonplace dwell- house beride a dusty road. It isa moonlight scene and wholly lacks color; but the critics find a “tonalit as they call it, which they cannot understand, but which they admire very greatly. Writing of Mr. Svendsen, James Will- n, the art critic, says: Ss cnow pictures are popu- lar because so true to fact, so brilliant in color and so poetical in story. ntation of facts in a new rnation of things. This sson in art that the stude art lover learns. It is the hi: son to ma r. We all love imitations when young; artists and all. Only the ripe anding of the artist can | grasp this idea of a rein tion, and the same with the connoisseur. But it is the true end of ar d thus becomes | ‘high art.’ High art used to mean great great pictures of saints or warriors do- unheard-of th like the strange gp Rape of the § ‘ one to his ficiality. David and his follow thought theirs very grand. ‘high art’ signi a mor. le thing than that.

No art except it have a forerunner Claude Lorraine, the greatest originat- or in the history of landscape painting, based his newness upon that which went before. So Svendsen must have some progenitor, and possibly we find it in Corot first and Cazin more recently. There is a flavor of Cazin in it. but only mildly so. Nothing of Cazin’s is like this, but only of the same fam If, possibly, some of that good family b!00d flows in Svendsen's artistic circulation. he need not be unhappy; nor we, eith- er.”* “Just as Good” as Rubber. “This office is deluged with letters from American manufacturers in re- gard to a report emanating from Ber- gen, Norway, to the effect that a chem- ist of Copenhagen has discovered a process for manufacturing, out of as- phalt. a material called ‘solicum,’ which serves as a substitute for rubber,” re- ports Mr. Freeman, United States con- sul at Copenhagen. “No process has been patented or discovered in Den- mark for manufacturing such a materi- al out of asphalt. A chemist named C. A. R. Steenstrup has recently patented s for making solicum from old nd oil. Its efficiency as a sub- stitute for pure rubber has not yet been demonstrated.” General Notes. Bjornson, in an address before the Liberal club of Christiania, on May 15, declared that the present time was a very opportune one for raising the old question of a separate consular de- partment for Norway, and urged the government to take action at once. A new Danish ministry is expected about July 1, or shortly after King Christian's return from Weisbaden. The municipal steel railway system reports a deficit of 69,316 kroner for 1900, the first year of its operation. The management promises better results in | its next report. Norway wants to strengthen her de- fenses, but it will take at least 8,000,000 kroner to carry out all the plans recom- mended. Over 1,000 people were rendered home- less by the fire which broke out in Amal, Sweden, on the night of May 8. ‘The people were cared for by the mu nicipality, and were temporarily quar- tered in the car shops, school houses and the remaining houses.

Robert Dickson has presented the Swedish agricultural society with 25,000 kroner, to be used for the advancement of husbandry. The aniversity committee of the Swedish mission church has decided to found a colony at McPherson, Kan. All the land required and $17,000 cash has teen donated. The first building will cost about $75,000. Admirers of Fredrika Bremer in Swe- den have decided to observe the centen- nial of her birth, Aug. 17. A pilgrimage will be made to her grave, in Arsta churchyard, where appropriate exer- cises will be held and the grave decor- ated.

Tom McDonald Showed His Resent- ment and Learned Much the Swede,” says the Kansas City Star. “The Teuton is a mystery to the Celt, and the latter reesnts the idea of a na- tionality which he cannot comprehend. Tom McDonald, the brawny Irish hos- pital guard, has long been disturbed in mind because of Dr. Nylund, the as- sistant ¢ physician, who is a Swede. With true national instinct, McDonald concluded that the best thing to do about it was to whip his man. Also, true to his racial traits, he had no doubt that he could d it.

Dr. Nansen was elected p.esident, and vice presidents were elected from Russia, Germany, Sweden and Holland, Bjornson Causes a Duel. A debate and a quarrel over the mer- its of Bjornson, between Professors Kessler and Ambrus of Budapest, was the cause of a duel, in which, however, no blood was spilled. Kessler is an ardent admirer of Bjornson and Ibsen, while Ambrus is a strong partisan of the modern French school. Women Will Be Elected. Norway's new suffrage lav, extending electoral rights to women, will give Chrisiania over 70,000 voters. It is ex- pected that several women will be elect- ed to the municipal boards in the cities of Norway at the fall elections. EXPECT TROUBLE IN OKLAHOMA. ‘Troops Will Be Sent to Preserve Or- der Among the Kiowas. Washington, June 5.—At the request of the interior department the secre- tary of war has instructed Gen. Mer- riam, commanding the department of Colorado, to employ as many of his troops as may be necessary to main- tain order on the Kiowa Indian reser- vation in Oklahoma. This action is based on a dispatch from Col. Rand- lett, in charge of the Kiowa and Comanche agency, reporting that at least 1,000 intruders had settled in the Wichita mountains, which are within the Kiowa lands soon to be opened to settement, and that they claimed the right to do so under the United States mineral laws. Secretary Hitchcock said that they had no rights and that they would be ejected. MRS, M'KINLEY’S CONDITION. Dr. Rixey Teports That There Has | Been No Change. | Washington, June 5.—Dr. Rixey, af- | ter remaining in the White House for | nearly three hours last night, said that | there had been no change in the con- dition of Mrs. McKinley, At 11 o'clock she was resting comfe’’ bly. The com- plaint which manifested itself while Mrs. McKinley was away from Wash- ington and which has so_ seriously sapped her strength, has been checked, but its effect has been to leave her in \a very weak condition. At the White | House last night there was a very | slight increase in cheerfulness and the hope was expressed that Mrs. McKin- ley will again give evidence of the re- markable vitality she has displayed | heretofore. | HORRIBLE SUICIDE. | Unidentified Man Insares a Voyage to His He Knows Not Of, St. Louis, June 5. — An unidentified man lit his funeral pyre in a straw stack near Clayton yesterday, fired a bullet through his h . falling artial- amidst the burning s e lly incinerated.

Miss Lucy Annie Heiser, a graduated nurse of nine years’ experience, trained and graduated from the Homeopathic Hospital of Minneapolis, Minn., writes as follows: Albert Lea, Minn., Nov. 8, 1899. The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio: Gentlemen—‘‘Although my school does not believe in patent medicines, I have found it to be a fact that Peruna is a grand and valuable medicine. I have known it to cure Mrs. Sampson, suffering with an inflamed womb, aggra- vated by malaria, after the doctors had failed to help her. Another of my former patients suffered with a complication of female diseases; she was so thin, nothing but skin and bones, but Peruna cured her and she is to-day in good health and good flesh. Facts prove that Peruna revives lost strength and restores to the sick that most wonderful blessing of life—health. Lucy Annie Heiser, If all the tired women and all the nervous women, and all the women that needed tonic would read and heed the words of these fair ladies who have spoken right to.the point, how many invalids would be prevented and how many wretched lives be made happy. Peruna restores health in a normal way. Peruna puts right all the mucous membranes of the body, and in this way restores the functions of every organ. From Mrs. Amanda Shumaker, who has charge of the Grammar Department of the Public Schools of Columbia City, Wash., also Past Grand of Independ- ent Order of Good Templars, Dr. Hart- man received the following letter: Columbia City, Wash. “I can speak only good words of the repeated benefits I have had from the use of Peruna. “‘Too constant application to work Jast winter caused me to have severe head and backache and dragging pains. I could not stop my work, pri, i was I fit to go on. Reading of the bene- ficial results from the use of Perunal purchased a bottle and within a few days after using it, began to feel better. “T constantly improved and before the seventh bottle was completely used, all pains were gone, my strength was restored, and 1 now seem ten years’ younger. “If I get tired or feel bad, Peruna at once helps me, and I feel you deserve praise for placing such a conscientious medicine before a suffering public.” Mrs. Amanda Shumaker. Mattie B. Curtis, Secretary Legion of Loyal Women, Hotel Salem, Boston, Mass., writes: «1 suffered for over a year with ‘ general weakness of -and debility, manifested es- pecially in severe backache and headache. “My physician prescribed differ- ent medicines, none of which seemed to help me any until a club associate 3 Mattle B.Curtis. advised me to ¢ RE : try Peruna as it cured her of constitu- | tional headache and stomach troubles. I at once ordered a bottle and before it was used, felt greatly improved. “I have taken four bottles and for two months have been entirely free from these maladies. Several of my friends are using Peruna with bene- ficial results, especially in cases of troubles with the kidneys and other pelvic organs, together with weak- nesses peculiar to women.” Peruna is a specific for the catarrhal derangements of women.
