The tendency to award a scholarshi solely for success in passing literary examin; tions seemed to him to put & premium on book- i worms. Hence he has drawn up a scheme for the election “of students for his scHolarship which is extremely original and very charac- teristic of the man. It is as follows: “In the election of & student to a scholaréhip regard should .be had to, first, his 1i scholastic attainments; second, his fondness for or success in manly outdoor sports, such as cricket, football and the like: third, his quail- ties of manhood, such as truth, courage, devo- duty, sympathy for and protection of the weak, kindliness, unselfishness and fellow- ship; fourth, his exhibition during school days ' of horal force of character and instincts 1o lead anditake.intercst in his schoolmates, for these latter attributes will likely in after life guide him to esteem the performance of pubie i duties as his highest aim.

SHRINK FROM THE CESSION Intrigues Are Set on Foot to Prevent the Sale of Islands. King Christian, However, Futs Aside Personal Feel- ings and Consents. SR Violent Debate in the Landsthing in | ‘Which Opposition Members" Attack the Treaty in Its Present Form. -t Special Dispatch ta The Call, COPENHAGEN, April 4—King Chris- | tian opposes the transfer of the Darish | Antilles, also the Crown Prince Frederick | £nd his son, Prince Christian. The entire royal family shrinks from the bare idea of cession. Princess Marle, wife of| Prince Valdemar, singles herself out | specially among the members of the royal | family as an opponent of the sale, never | missing an opportunity of expressing her | disapproval and doing her utmost to in- | fluence all those she can reach against | the sale. She is a clever woman and | Leing an Orleanist Princess is fond of | intrigue. | But the only person who really counts | and has direct influence is the ng'} This model monarch has ever subor nated his private desires and sentiments | to the policy of the interests of his coun- try. In the present case he has acted as | he has always done and remained true to his reputation. His feelings are re- pugnant to the sale, which hurts his pride. But patriotism, calls of a politeo- economic convenience and the ' over- whelming vote of the Folkething have caused the King to side with the people. In spite of his personal sentiments and | those of his entire family, he is for the | sale and has given his approval. 1 It is quite true that intriguers are many being sent to the King against the sale. Family and other influences are being ex- | | erted in the same direction. Dr. Deuntzer, who occupies premiership, | knows that the ming throughout his long reign has never opposed the Ministry and | will not listen to the slightest whisper of intrigue. Neither does he fear the anti- | ministerial Senate.

This Dr. Deuntzer and his colleagues in the Government might be | willing to accept. There was an exciting debate on the Danish West Indies Islands treaty in the executive session of the Landsthing to- day. The opposition members violently attacked the treaty and plied the Foreign Minister, Dr. Deuntzer, with numerous questions, to which he replied firmiy and clearly. There is great public interest in the question and the agitation and ex- citement are intense. Both sides are con- fident of success. A strong effort is being made to identify the members of the Landsthing, who are suspected of furnishing information to Congressman Richardson. So far it has not been successful.

PAINE’S CELERY COMPOUND. Terrible Tortures and Death Result From Acute and Chronic Rheumatism When Neglected in Spring.- PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND THE GREAT VANQUISHER OF ALL FORMS OF RHEUMATIS The Marvslous Cure of Mrs. Cook of Gardner, Kansas. Rheumatism, terrible in its acute, and long enduring in its chronie, form, is one of the most baneful diseases that human beings suffer from. It is a disease that will not bear neglect, for if not treated promptly will remain till death to harass, torture and make life. miserable. Rheumatism is also a constitutional dis- order and hereditary. Because of an in- active condition of the kidneys and bowels the blood Is not purified and an acrid pol- sen is formed and deposited in the muscles and joints, and thic _ =g the inflammation and intense agonles that thousands are obliged to endure. Too often.the effects of rheumatism are fatal. especially when the dread disease affects the heart; then death is stidden. Many other serious complications result from this terrible disease, such as pneumonia, pleurisy, meningitis and diaphragmitis, and these often prove rapidly fatal. Racked and tortured reader, what are You doing to get rid of your danger? Phy- sicians candidly admit their inability to cure. The ordinary medicines of the day may give you relief for a few hours or days; they cannet banish the disease from | your blood, joints and muscles; they can= not take the swellings from your knee: elbows or wrists, or. make supple the stif- and twisted limbs.
