Christiana, May 25,—The Social- d rad ) Wi n parliament are making a re- Inewed attempt to reduce the prero- | gatives of King Haakon. Bills to ¥ » away from the King the privi- lege of conferring decorations, the right to attend the opening session of parliament and to alter the iaws of suceession to the throne which were defeated three years azo are to be pressed again After the and | 1905 the country ta some of Norway had been dissolved in voted upon the { question of adopting a monarchal of a republican form of government. Norway had been a monarchy for a | thousand years and seventy-nine per. cent. of the people voted to continue that system. When Prince Charles of Denmark accepted the call of the union between Sweden | | | nation to become its king most of the people shared with him the supposi- |tion that he could be assured of reigning and working on the condi- tions guaranteed by the constitution. Very soon, however, the Socialist and Radical politicians began to attempt I{to restrict the King's prerozatives. After they obtained control of par- liament in 1912, secure the necessary two thirds ma- jority upon natives and foreigners as a decoration of honor, and this has heen a personal right of the King which did not concern the cabinet or | parliament Proposals to take away | that right, and to prevent the King from attending parliament were de- feated Bills have now again been present- led to abolish the order of St. Olav, | and to forbid citizens from accepting decorations, also to forbid the king from attending the opening and |closing of parliament. Another | | measure proposes to take from the I he | throne the prerogative which holds as head of the Norweigian church of appointing priests, bish- ops and other church functionaries. Even more sweeping than these bills is one dealing with the succession.

Kelly, all of a sudden, has been seized with title |aspirnllons and as a starter has planned a strict and careful routine ‘ol training which he hopes will ibring him to a much higher stand- ard than he has attained to date. it’s all because he made such a crackerjack showing in his battle with Jackie Dobbs two weeks azo. Friends of Kelly went to him and handed him out some friendly ad- vice. Kelly put it all in his pipe and smoked it. He realizes that if he ‘works diligently he may make some- thing of himself in the pugilistic game after all. Word has been eased along to us that Willie Ritchie finds that he will be a member of the welterweight class in a short time. That means jthat he will not have another chance to battle for the welterweight title, { To our mind it would be an ex- tremely gallant act for each player +who wins a $5 bonus to contribute it immediately to the campaign fund of the Suffrage party.

Yale is developing another win- ning crew. The defeat of Corne'l and Prinecton on May 15 points ‘clearly to the fact that a strong foundation has been laid for the race with Harvard late next month. The Tigers were at a disadvantage in being called on to row two hard races within a week. Things do not look so gloomy now for boxing in Cuba as they did a few days ago.

Word from St. Louis is to the ef- fect that Earl Hamilton, who was fined $500 and indefinitely suspend- ed, will retire to his home in dear Oswego, Gansas, and stay there, A good many of his intimate friends say that Earl is donewith baseball.

(Copyrigit, 1915, by W. G. Chapman.) “Julia! Is that you, dear?” The sick man stirred uneasily upon the bed, and Julia Crothers ran out to where her younger sister, Dulcie, waited upon the landing. “It is terrible. I cannot stay there,” she whispered. Dulcie, who had been trembling, suddenly managed to pull herself to- gether and entered the room with a firm tread. She went up to the bed- side. “Is that you, Julia?’ murmured the sick man again. “Yes,” answered Dulcie bravely. Two days before, Jim Ridgely, her sister’'s flance, had been struck by lightning. His recovery, at first de- spaired of, now seemed assured, but he was blind, and the doctors held out no hope of his regaining his ht. “The optic nerve is paralyzed,” they sald. “There is the barest chance, but the cure must be a spontaneous one, and it must happen within the next two or three days. Unless by a miracle that should happen, he will be blind the rest of his life.” Julia Crothers was the belle of the town, and Ridgely a rising young law: yer. Though Julia and Dulcie were alike in speech and manner, and were | often mistaken for each other, when side by side it was plain that Dulcle was only a poor image of Julia. She ! the | was generally considered plain; difference, however, existed principal- 1y in Julia's dashing ways and Dulcie's unattractive and simple ones. Poor Dulcle, whose tender heart went out to Ridgely, knew that her heartless sister would never dream of marrying a blind man. She could trace the unconscious processes in Julia's heart even now. And it seemed to her that she must do her best to shield Ridgely until he recov- ered. Possibly his sight would come back to him, and then he need never know that it was she, and not Julia, who had sat at his bedside all those long hours when he lay racked with pain and fever. “He is sleeping,” she told her sister, when at last she went out to her. “What shall T do, Dulcie?” moaned Julia. “I cannot bear to look upon suf- fering. What shall I do?” Then Dulcie told her her plan. And it worked surprisingly. A week elapsed, and at the end of that time, although the doctors announced that there was now no hope of Ridgely's ever recovering his sight, he was able to sit up. And he had not guessed that it was Dulcle who had sat by his bedside and read to him in her gentle voice. He had thought it was Julia. And in the midst of the pain Dulcle telt to think of Ridgely's coming disil- lusionment, there was a fierce exul- tation in her heart. For Dulcle loved Ridgely. She had loved him from the beginning, and now more than ever before her heart went out to this blind man, doomed to be dependent throughout his life upon the help of others. Ridgely had been brought into the Crothers home simply because he had no one to care for him. Old Mrs. Crothers, a gentle old lady, alternately dominated and petted by Julla, had assented to the plan with alacrity. But when she understood Julia’s inten- tions she shook her head mournfully. “He thinks I am Julla, mother,” Dulcle whispered to her. “I don't ! know how to tell him.” The old lady flared up for the first time in many years. “If you ask me,” she sald, tossing her head, “I think that Jim is well rid of her.” “Will you tell him, mother?” asked Dulcle, eagerly. “No, my dear. sald the old lady. And then, resolved to end a situation which had become unbearable, Dulcle ran up the stairs and into Jim’'s room. He was lying on the sofa, looking out of the window with his sightless eyes. “Do you know, dear, that I have neither asked nor received a kiss dur- ing the whole of my fllness?” asked Jim patiently. Dulcie blushed painfully. “Jim, there is something ¢hat 1 must tell you,” she stammered, seat- ing herself at his side.

Jim's hand fell lightly upon her own. “I knew it was you, Dulcie,” he sald softly. Dulcle raised her tearstained face incredulously. “You see, dear, you only decelved me for a few hours,” he sald. “You see, Dulcle, love opens cne’s ears, and 1 have come to realize that it Is you, and not Julia, and 1 have dared to hope—" He drew her toward him. “To hope that you might learn to care for me, Dulcie.
