The prosecuting witness, whé had a lump over one eye, a black and blue spot under the other, a nose that point- ed decidedly awry and various strips of court plaster on his face, evidently arranged without any regard to their artistic effect, testified that the de- fendant had knocked him senseless and then kicked him in the head and face for several minutes. “If he knocked you senseless,” asked the police justice, “how do you know he kicked you after you were down?” The witness scratched his jaw and reflected. “I know it, jedge,” he replied, “’cause that’s what I’d a done to him if I'd got him down—you can bet on that.”—Chicago Tribune.

Louis Parisot, an eminent French chemist, has discovered a liquid which he says will keep eggs quite fresh for a period of twelve years. Early last year he placed a large number of new- laid eggs in this liquid, and he took the precaution to get a magistrate to witness the proceeding and ‘to affix to the tank his official seal. At the expi- ration of twelve months the magistrate witnessed the opening of the tank, and the eggs were found in excellent con- dition. Four which were selected at haphazard from the tank were at once boiled for eating, and were found to be in first rate condition and of excellent flavor. Later on the inventor had an- other triumph. Some eggs which had been in the liquid for four months ‘were successfully hatched, eight out ‘of the twelve which were placed under he hen proving fertile. M. Parisot istates that he can preserve 1,000 eggs ‘with his preparation for the sum of '7% pence. This WIiIl Interest Mothers.

His own son_was brought before him on a charge of drunkenness and disorderly conduct. His honor attended gravely to the evidence, which established a clear case against the young man, and said: “The couht will now render sen- tence. You're fined 1 cent and costs. The couht will remit the costs, and you may go home and thank God that your father is the judge.”—Public Led- ger. Paice SE Se The Future Made Easy. There was recently in White Haven, Pa., an up-to-date evangelist who se- cured a pot of yellow paint and deco- rated all the rocks along the Lehigh river with Bible texts and admonitions. Among the sentences painted were some rather startling ones.. Some dis- tance up the river he discovered a huge rock with a fine, smooth surface, facing a much-used road. Across this he painted in foot-high letters: “What are you going to do after death?” It was only a week, however, that the rock displayed this alone, for an enterprising advertisement writer came along and painted just below: “Use Delta Oil.

It Is a Sixteenth of a Second and Thou- sands Are Spent to Find It. the ocean were Jost and scientists they would be attempting a task re- sembling that to which the leading as- tronomers of England and France are now devoting themselves. One six- teenth of a second is missing and no one can tell where it has gone. tween the sun’s time, as recorded at Greenwich and as understood at Paris, there is that brief and seemingly unim- portant discrepancy. No expense is being spared to trace the missing frac- tion. A special building has been erected at Paris, costly instruments installed, a corps of mathematicians engaged, and a process that may take years to complete has been com- menced. The inaccuracy is more im- portant than will appear to the lay mind. Longitude is calculated on the basis of Greenwich time.

A lady of Da- venport, Iowa, who used Postum Food Coffee for five years is competent to talk upon the subject. She says: “I am a school teacher and during extra work when I thought I needed to be braced up I used to indulge in rich, strong coffee, of which I was yery fond and upon which I thought I was dependent. “I began to have serious heart palpi- tation and at times had sharp pains around thé’ heart and more or iess stomach trouble. I read about Postum and got some <o try. I dropped coffee, took up the Postum, and it worked such wonders for me that many of my friends took it up. “In a short time I was well again, even able to attend evening socials. | And I did not miss my coffee at all.

Claimed in Stockholm That the Sitter Kingdom Is Not in Want. A Stockholm correspondent, com- menting on the fact that the bishop of Trondhjem, Norway, has received 62,- 800 crowns “to help the needy in Northern Norway,” says that the American donors could give their mon- ey to a better purpose. He explains that in Scandinavia they know of no want in Norway; that the people in the northern part of that country gain their Hvelihood by fishing. About Christmas time the fishing was entire- ly spoiled by the presence in large numbers of fish-eating seals called “rysskobben,” which came from the Russian coast, where they are protect- ed by law. The Norwegians, how- ever, managed to rid their fishing grounds of the seals, and since then the fishing has been the best for a long time past. Some distress prevails in some industrial centers in Central and Southern Norway, brought about by strikes, but the distress is not such in the ordinary term. In closing, he says: “Want, as commonly under- stood, Providence has spared Norway, and to tender relief there is meaning- less. The generous donors in Amer- ica are in some inexplicable manner kept in the dark respecting the ‘want in Norway.’” FROM THE FROZEN NORTH. A Splendid Arctic Museum to Be Es- tablished Soon. Stockholm is soon to have the most cemplete and the largest collection of Arctic relics and specfmens in the werld. The Swedish authorities have decided to establish in that city an Arctic museum on a large scale, in which the imposing collections | brought from the Arctic regions by Scandinavian investigators are to be depesited and arranged systematical- ly. The majority of these treasures are to be found in the Royal Museum of Natural Sciences in Stockholm, where the late Prof. Nordenskjold succeeded in putting the geographical and biological sections into good shape, put other finds,especially those/brought from Spitzenbergen, Greenland, Jan Mayen, Nova Zembla, and Siberia, are in the university collections of Upsa- la and Lund. The Arctic collections of Sweden are the most complete in the world, and are as unique in that line as the art collections of the Vati- can and the antiquities in the British museum. The Swedish navigators have been systematically engaged in | this work since the beginning of the | last century. KING GIVES SEND-OFF. | Approves Society of Brother People’s : Welfare. | The Norwegian paper Orebladet has | undertaken to secure an expression cf | opinion from the leading men of Swed- {en and Norway regarding the newly | organized non-political patriotic soci- ety, “Brother People’s Welfare.” King Oscar has replied to Attorney Thorn, | Christiania: “Accept and convey my | heartiest thanks for your greetings on | the day of institution. May the soci- ety’s name bode good for its useful- ness and influence between the coun- | tries.” The name of the society is the | motto adopted by King Oscar, which | appears on Swedish and Norwegian | coin. Others have expressed them- | selves as well pleased with the ob- | ject of the new organization, and wish it success. MONUMENT FOR HEROES. Scandinavian Volunteers at Magers- fontain to Be Honored. One of the most memorable events /in the South African war was the part played by the Scandinavian voluriteer | corps on the bloody field of Magersfon- tein, Dec. 11, 1899. Like the First Min- nesota at Gettysburg, this corps bore the brunt of the battle, held the ground without flinching, and was almost com- | pletely annihilated. It is now proposed by a committee in Kimberley to raise funds for a ; monument to these heroes. The pro- | posed monument is to consist of a burial mound surmounted by large stones linked with four smaller stones. The latter are to bear bas reliefs of Amazons. typifying Svea, Nora, Dana and Soumi, with inscriptions respect- ively in the Swedish, Norwegian, Dan- ish and Finnish languages. Don’t Like Royal Soldiers. S. A. Hedin, a member of the second | chamber of the Swedish riksdag or diet, startled his colleagues recently | by moving that no member of the roy- | al family should have a command in the army, and that all such as already | had commissions should be deprived |of them. His chief complaint was that the scions of the royal house were advanced so rapidly that they could | not possibly acquire a thorough knowl- edge of warfare. His motion was je- | feated by a vote of 90 to 123. Ericsson Statue Located. Ernest Lundgren, chairman of the | committee which was appointed last fall by the delegates from the various Swedish societies in New York to se- | cure a more suitable place in Battery | Park for the John Ericsson statue, has received the pleasing information that the New York park board has ap- proved of the new site in the center of the park, where the band stand is now situated. The park board has also ap- proved J. Scott Hartley’s new statue of John Ericsson, previously. accepted by the New York art commission. Far Northland. SCANDINAVIAN UNITY. It Is Hampered by Clamors of the Rad- ical Element in Norway. Trreconcilables in Norway in their insistent demands for a complete sep- aration from Sweden in the diplomatic as well as the consular service are making it very difficult for the ele- ment which is seeking more friendly relations with Sweden to carry out the plans which have been proposed, Now that the consular question has been disposed of in a manner satisfac- tory to both countries, there is a loud ery for 2 division of the other branch of the foreign service. Bjornstjerne Bjornson, once a rabid Swede baiter, is now working enthusi- astically for unity, and he has been moved to write a sensational letter to the press exhorting the radical party to expel the war-provoking extremists from the Stang-Konow. district. The poet denounces all agitation against Sweden and asserts that the presert friendly relations promise Norway full equality in the union. POLICE IN CONVENTION. National Gathering of Men of the Billee Is Called. A Gothenberg policemen’s society has issued an invitation to all police- men in Sweden to a meeting at which are to be decided the following ques- tions: The use and necessity for a national organization under the name of Swedish Police union; the establish- ment of a widows ’and pupils’ fund: the advisability of securing the enact- ment of legislation for better regula- tions regarding the employment of po- licemen; the publication of a newspa- per in the interests of policemen. Assists Dependent Widows. A society has lately been formed in Copenhagen for the purpose of assist- ing widows who, through the loss of their husbands, become dependent either wholly or partially upon public charity. The assistance will be ren- dered either by payment of an annuity or a certain stated sum, as the case may require. Distress Drives Emigrants. Recently 1,221 emigrants departed from Gothenburg in one day, the larg- est number in many years. The emi- grants were principally from Norrbot- ten, the province in which so much distress has recently prevailed because of crop failure. PE TRANS SE SIE Bathing on a Great Scale. The dedication of a new, large bath establishment recently took place in Copenhagen. Although the cost of construction was 1,100,000 crowns, a swimming pool has not been provided. Swedish bathing instructors have been engaged. Sa a aaa ae Stockholm Suicide Stunts. In the year 1902 there were 105 sui- cides in Stockholm, and in the five years immediately preceding they av- eraged about 100 a year. Six suicides were committed in two days last month. The suicides were men by a large majority. NOTES FROM OVER THE POND. Transients visiting Stockholm last year were 98,228. According to the latest report there are 11,000 Good Templars in Skane province. In 1663 the population of Stockholm was 14,948. The population at present is 303,115.

He was | for many years associated with the | Nya Dagligt Allehanda.

It would appear that the tendency is toward centralization of capital in Sweden as well as in the United States. The English war department has advised the relatives of Edward Cedar- jund at Hernosand, Sweden, that a Rhodesian gold medal has been award- ed to him for courageous and merito- rious service in the Matabele war in 1896. Cederlund was killed in an ac- cident in South Africa the same year. C. A. Lindhagen was recently elect- ed mayor of Stockholm, receiving 5,525 yotes. His nearest opponent, Rich Oh- nell, received $1,864. There was a decrease in beer pro- duction in Norway of 15 per cent in 1902, as compared with 1901.
