Former Premier Michelsen has re- ceived as a gift from Norwegian sea- men on the coast of China a huge sil- ver goblet, engraved by a Chinese goldsmith of Canton. The goblet is exceedingly beautiful, and is an ob- ject of great interest to all who see it. es *+ 6 A dispatch from Christiania says that a monumental column was un- veiled this noon on the grave of Stats- minister Johannes Steen at Vor Frel- sers Gravlund. The monument is not large; it is a bust placed on a pol- ished pedestal. The bust makes a beautiful appearance amidst the other surrounding columns. It is erected by the family and friends of Statsminis- ter Steen, and Gunnar Utsond has modeled it. eee Michael Alger writes from Chris- tiania that an association has been formed for the purpose of reducing emigration. On the other hand, many take the opposite view on the matter. Thus a man so prominent as G. Th. Meidell, judge of the supreme court, recently said in a lecture before the Christiania Commercial association, that he considered it foolish to adopt special measures against emigration, which, in his opinion, has just as much good influence as bad. He said it was up to the politicians of this country to make living conditions as favorable here as elsewhere, and emi- gration would then die a natural death without any special efforts by any- body. The lecture was on “The con- flict between the national and the in- ternational.” He was strictly in favor of the international, and brought forth many arguments to prove that it was the intercourse and good feeling be- tween the nations that produce most beneficial results for mankind, and that the trend of our time is for in- ternational unity and good will more than for individual national pride. *- * & Bjornstjerne Bjornson’s principal op- ponent in the “maalsag” or Aanguage controversy is Lovland, the former premier, who, since his retirement, has been lecturing in behalf of; the Landsmaal or peasant dialect. Bjorn- son, as I have frequently stated in these columns, cannot condemn too se- verely the effort to enthrone the Landsmaal as the official and literary language of Norway, but his efforts are not meeting with success. This language controversy has be- come the most acute political issue in Norway, and the indications are that it will occupy more and more of the attention of the people and the politicians. In this connection a quo- tation from an article by E. Nesdal, in the Norwegian-American of North- field, Minn., will be read with inter- est: “It is by no means a single-handed fight between the two distinguished men (Bjornson andLovland); a crowd of coadjutors are rushing to the stand- ards on both sides. For reference and inspiration the “Maalkantor” in Chris- tiania has prepared a chart showing in glowing red the districts which have adopted thee Landsmaalas the chief educational instrument in the common schools. (It must all the time be borne in mind that the law demands ability to read and under- stand both “maals,” no matter which one is the dominating.) From the chart it appears that large districts have placed the Landsmaal in the seat of honor. The “Vestland” is espe- cially red. Some malicious Riksmaal’s men have, however, made the sig- nificant discovery that the red color is with great predilection applied to mountains and glaciers so as to swell the territory with immunity.” Although the language controversy has been so vividly brought before the mind of the public, nevertheless it is a very delicate problem for the profes- sional politician to handle. At a pre- liminary caucus meeting of the Con- servative party in Christiania the fol- lowing wording was adopted concern- ing this plank in the party platform: “The meeting sees in the Riksmaal the foundation for the future develop- ment of our language.. The Conserva- tive party will support the work for the growth of the Riksmaal in nation- al strength. “As we see, the policy is couched 4n the mildest and most considerate ‘terms possible, and yet it is doubtful whether it will keep its place in the ‘final platform. “The Liberal party plans on a cau- cus meeting about Jan. 28. Among the published questions for consider- ation, of which to make a platform, the maal problem does not yet ap- pear.” se @ A bronze tablet was recently erected ‘at 110, Strandegaden, Bergen, to mark ‘the spot where Ludvig -Holberg, the great Scandinavian author, was born. ‘Holberg was of Norwegian birth and ancestry, and grew to manhood in Norway, but settled down in Copen- hagen, where he became the greatest Danish author of his age, perhaps the greatest Denmark can yet claim. ees The Christiania city board has voted down the socialists’ proposition of providing free school supplies for the pupils. SWEDEN. The tax levy for the city of Stock- holm for the ensuing year has been made out. The taxes will be about 9 per cent higher than last year. see A brilliant meteor was observed at Vernamo the early part of the month, its course being from southeast to northwest. The phenomenon was also observed in a number of other places. ss The jreceipts of the national treas- ury we in the neighborhood of two million dollars less for the past year than the previous year. The falling off was largely due to the hard times resulting from the financial panic of a year ago. s+ 8 The state department is doing its best to relieve the distress among the unemployed by giving work to as many as possible in public enterprises, road work, rairoad extensions, etc. Many of the municipalities are also doing the same. = *¢ £ Parties in Stockholm are canvassing for funds for a monument over the grave of Alfred Hedenstjerna, the noted Swedish author and humorist. Over 5,000 crowns have already been subscribed. Hedenstjerna is best known to the reading public under the pen name Sigurd. *_s ©€ Capt. B. H. Bey has set out on a trip to military posts in Austria, Bul- garia, Montenegro, Turkey, etc., to ob- serve the military maneuvers in these countries. Owing to political unrest in these countries the soldiers are put- ting in full time drilling, making a fa- vorable time for observations. ee ea Steps are being taken in Sweden to put an end to the dog nuisance, the larger cities especially suffering from the numerous dogs that are permitted to run at large. It is proposed to raise the tax to such an extent that the great majority of the useless animals at least will be dispensed with. * * * A society for the preservation of Swedish culture and language has re- cently been organized in Goteborg. The society will endeavor to do propa- ganda work in all eountries where the Swedes have settled in any numbers, and hopes to inspire a love for the homeland in the hearts of emigrated Swedes and their descendants. ses / The salary of the superintendent of the Gothenburg street cleaning de- partment has been raised from 5,000 crowns per year to 7,500. The place is eagerly sought for, there being about forty applications for the posi- tion the first of the year, when a new one was to be named. The council has not yet selected any one for the position. eee The Swedish academy in 1896 com- menced a subscription for funds for a statue of Esaias Tegner, the noted Swedish poet. The fund now amounts to 15,000 crowns, and the committee is desirous of bringing it up to 35,000 or 40,000 crowns, so as to have a statue that will be a credit to the city of Stockholm, where it is to be erected. sss DENMARK. Count Mogens Friis has gone to Ceylon on a hunting expedition, ac- companieq by the barons, ‘Axel and Gustave Blixen-Finnecke. eset f It is reported from Berlin that a company is being organized in Ger- many to establish an airship route between Friedrichshafen and Copen- hagen. The airships are to carry fif- teen passengers each. ee * A large exposition is being suggest- ed for the year 1913. The industrial league of Copenhagen has endorsed the idea and pledged a donation. There is opposition from certain quar- ters, but in the main the idea meets with favor. se 8 One of the much talked-of events in Denmark for a month or more is the desecration by burglars of King Fred- erick the Fifth’s chapel in the Ros- kilde church. The robbers cut their way through the steel walls and car- ried off the golden wreath of Frederick the Seventh, the golden wreath of Christian the Ninth, presented by the commercial cities, and the silver wreath presented by President Fal- lieres of France. It is supposed that the criminals are members of an in- ternational band of thieves. For days and weeks the orime has been on ey- erybody’s lips in Copenhagen. No ar- rests have as yet followed. ses There are today 1,36 churches in Denmark—3 in Copenhagen, 9 in the other cities and 1,700 in the country. The total capital of all these churches is about 300,000,000 crowns, 150,000,- 000 crowns of which are represented py the church buildings and sites, 50,- 000,000 by tithes and 100,000,000 crowns being available cash. There are 1,273 church offices and about 1,300 ordained pastors, including 994 parish ministers in the country and 34 rural chaplains. The average sal- ary for ministers is 5,000 crowns. ‘| PATENTS.
