SWEDEN AFTER AMERICA'S CUP
i'achtmen Will Try for the Trophy
Again After a Lapse of Fifty
Five Years.
SWEDEN.
Stockholm.
Sweden has suddenly come strong
ly into the public limelight in America
through her recent declaration to
challenge for the America's cup, which
gne is going to try and bring back to
the other side of tne ocean. The fol
lowing dispatch from Stockholm,
dated Oct. would indicate that the
Swedish Yacht club means business:
"After many years given to the con
sideration of the subject, the financial
and other difficulties have been over
come and Sweden is again about to
challenge for the America's cup, for
which she competed in 1S32. This
project has the warm support of King
Oscar, who is honorary admiral of the
Swedish Yacht club, thiough which
the challenge i being issued. Two
prominent millionaire yachtsmen, W ill
iam Olsson and Goesta Kyhlberg, have
subscribed Sl.io,000 toward the ex
pense of the undertaking, and they
have engaged the services of the best
yacht designers and builders in Swe
den. Should the challenge be ac
cepted, Tohn Carlsson, one of the
ablest ui. Sweden's yachtsmen, and a
winner of many European races, will
have command of the challenger. The
prospect of a series of races for the
America's cup with a Swedish boat
has created the keenest interest here,
and there is much confidence that Swe
den will have a chance of winning. M.
Fyhlberg's yacht Santoy, with other
Swedish boats, have won a number of
prizes in European waters of recent
years."'
Not long ago the chauffeur of the
British minister in Stockholm was
summoned before the police court of
Stockholm on the charge of having
killed a policeman's dog with the min
ister's automobile. The judge sug
gested that the owner of the automo
bile be made responsible and the Brit
ish minister was expected to appear
in court. But no such thing happened,
as an old practice excuses a foreign
ambassador from appearing as a de
fendant In a Swedish court, and theNorway
owner of the dog must sue the min
ister before a British court.
The new Dramatic theater will be
completed in January- The com
pletion of the facade alone has en
tailed an expenditure of not less thau
573,000. The walls and floor of the
foyer are built ot Grecian marble, the
cost of which is estimated at $00,-from
000. The stage has also been about
completed and it is the largest stag*1
ever erected in Sweden.
From Stockholm comes the report
that John Swanberg, who won second
prize in the Marathon running races
in connection with the Olympian
games in 1906, intends to move to
America and locate permanently In
this country. Great efforts are being
mode to induce Swanberg to remain
in Sweden, but he seems determined
to go.
A monument of Swedish granite
was unveiled during the early part of
last month at Altvanstadt, Germany,
in memory of the historical fact that
King Charles XII of Sweden, while
stopping at that place 200 years ago.
compelled the kaiser to obey the West
fa len treaty and to grant religious lib
erty to the Protestants of Sweden.
Sweden seems ready to adopt dras
tic measures in regard to immigration.
Generals Matern and ITggla of the
regular army will next year present a
proposition for a law which shall for
bid any young man between the ages
of 17 and 32 years to emigrate from
Sweden.

NORWAY.
Christiana.
Says Michael Alger, the well known
Christiania correspondent: "It was on
Sept 2, 1811, that the University of
Christiania was founded, by a royal
decree of King Frederick VI, king of
the then united countries of Denmark
and Norway Since then that day
has every year been fittingly observed,
and on that day new students are usu
ally enrolled. On that day also those
who can celebrate their fiftieth or
twenty-fifth anniversaries as students
at the university also meet for a re.
union. This year about 300 new stu
dents were enrolled, and of the fifty
year jubilants, eighteen were pres
ent, all men now in the seventies, and
mostly in high positions. Professor
Brogger, rector of the university,
handed out certificates of enrollment
and shook hands with each of the
young men and women admitted to
academic life. In his speech he dwelt
on the history of the university, how
it was founded in days of great dis
tress, by the national spirit of the
Norwegian people who had to send
their young men to Copenhagen for a
university education. Naturally the
number of such students was small. In
1S08 there was but one Norwegian
student in the University of Copen
hagen, and consequently all the higher
offices in Norway were filled by
Danes, which v-r very distasteful to
the Norwegians. After they got their
own university and especially after
the dissolution of the union with Den
mark in 1814 all this was ehansreJ.
Professor Brogger said that the uni
versity during its nearly one hundred
years of existence had done its work
satisfactorily, when it was considered ***^******H
what limited material support it had
been working with. Its mission as an
educational institution it must be said
to have fulfilled, inasmuch as the
scientific training of the graduates in
the different departments would un
doubtedly compare very favorably
with that imported by leading uni
versities elsewhere in the world. That
the university with its limited means
had not hein
able to do much in the
line of scientific research might be
true, but still such names as Henrik
Abel, Sofus Lie, Sylow, Sars, Kierult,
Nansen, Munch, Sophus, Bugge, etc.,
could always be pointed to with
pridemen who each had done credita
ble work in his chosen branch."
A few days after Queen Alexandra
of Great Britain arrived in Christi
ania on board the royal yacht Victoria
and Albert, accompanied by a cruiser
of the British navy, her sister, the
dowager empress of Russia, in the im
perial yacht, the Polar Star, also es
corted by a Russian cruiser, arrived.
Although the royal visits were of a
private character they naturally
caused extra activity. There were
continuous exchanges of visits be
tween the foreign royal visitors and
the Norwegian royal family. They
took in the sights- of the city, went to
Holme -lien and saw Ibsen plays1
at
the nal theater. After about a
week's stay here, the two yachts with
their escorts left last Friday for
Copenhagen, where the two royal sis
ters will visit awhile with their broth
er, the king of Denmark. Princess
Victoria of Great Britain, who came
here with her mother will remain in
for a while as the guest of
h^r sister. Queen Maud. When the
dowager empress of Russia and the
queen of England left, thej gave 2,000
and 1,000 kroner lespectively to the
poor of Christiania. The dowager em
press also gave about 1.300 kroner for
distribution among the police force.
In Norway It takes eleven years
the time the child starts in at a
high school at the age of 6 or 7, be
fore he can pass the student examina
tion. All th's time tuition has to be
paid, which in the higher classes
amounts to about $6.50 a month.. And
if a professional career is to be
chosen, it means from five to eight
years' additional study at the uni
versity. Figuring time and money
spent for obtaining such an education
on one side, and the poor prospects
for the graduated student to find suit
able occupation on the other, it is no
wonder that voices have been raised
to turn more of the young people into
channels of practical activity, such as
bus'ness and trade.
Last month the largest military
maneuver on record was held in Nor
way. About 13,000 soldiers partici
pated in the maneuver and King Haa
kon himself followed the movements
of the troops from day to day. The
men who were in the field had a pret
ty tough time playing war. Drenched
to the skin by rain almost every day,
they have had to turn into tents for
the night where the temperature has
not been any too high. At the wind
up Saturday on the drilling grounds at
Gardormoen, thousands from Christi
ania and elsewhere witnessed the
parade before the king. Several for
eign military attaches were present.
The tourist traffic this season has
been a most successful one taken right
through. Tourists from all parts of
the world have been in Norway and
many of them have made heavy pur
chases. Despite a most miserable sea
son as to the weather the tourist traf
fic has brought satisfactory returns.
The king of Siam was a specially good
customer. He bought liberally while
in Norway, principally furs and
jewelry.
The trip of Mrs. Dybwar and her
colleagues to America has been given
up owing to the exorbitant rentals
asked by the theatrical trust for thea
ters. The troupe will make a Euro
pean tour and play Ibsenmainly in
Germany.
DENMARK.
Copen hagen.
King Frederick has during the past
two weeks had as his guests his two
royal sistei-s. Queen Alexandra of Eng
land and the dowager empress of Rus
sia. They were of course royally
entertained and special entertainments
were arranged in their honor.
A recent dispatch from London
states that the wireless telephone has
made immense progress in the course
of a few weeks on the basis of Val
demar Paulsen's system. Messages
have been fully exchanged between
Berlin and Cambridge.
