The city was founded in 1819, on the invitation of Gustavus Adolphus. by Dutch settlers, Who brought withthem their national style of constructing streets and canals. These waterways are still a distinctive features of the city, but they are to the regret of many citizens, being filled up to make more room for traffic. Cotheuburg now owns a fleet of 200 steamers and has world-wide connections. Its buildings are ornate in the new sections and its system of parks quite extensive. There is considerable wealth and maritime. luring enterprises abound. But the distinctive feature In which Gothenbitrg differs from the rest of the world is its system of regulating the liquor traffic. it has been in work- ing operation several years, and has unquestionably reduced drunkenness to a minimum. for whereas formerly intempernnce was very common. now it is exceptional. The leading feature of this system is the sale of the right to sell liquor. to a company, who at first were required to buy out all pre- vious licenses and rights. and to open a limited number of shops for sale of spirits. under the unimigemeut of sale- ricd‘ agents“ who have no interest in the profits or sales. The company sim- ply takes the place of individual liquor sellers. . it is under the supervision of the municipality. and after deducting five per cent. interest on the capital employed. hands over the wholtl of the surplus’ to the. civic authorities.

From the moment of our‘arrival until our dev pal-lure they lavished attentions and hospitality upon us which were quite unexpected, and might have been re- served torroyalty. ‘ Carriages were at our command constantly, a banquet by twenty of the leading man of this city. with‘ their wives and daughters. at the Grand Hotel (with numerous apologies loathe absence of many others who were in the country) and a musical concert at a garden in our especial honor, They gave us the-"Star Span- gled Banner." and the outsiders who seemed to know it was an “extrs'” for our boner... applauded viiorously,‘nnd toasts were drunk to teacher as Separ- ately'nnd collectively. The next day we were invited to'the island of Mar- strand, a fashionable seaside resort; twenty miles from the city, where .the king makes an annual visit. Our host and hostess had invited a goodly com pany. and we, sailed away at 10 o'clock for the Island In one of the regular. excursion steamers. it was a delight: ful sail and partly in the opensea.’ The dinner which was served after a trip in a yacht belonging to orient our hosts of’hhey previous evening.

Today. it is a city: of magpillc'nt‘ proportions; with an srchitecursl beauty. broad streets and even; so .of trees. and a life of animation hardly loss than: Par- lii or Berlin. The. sights of Stockholm are numerous. but lo,my mind the ex- cursions In and around the harbor are 'of surpassing Interest. The bulb around the arrays is fairly alive with steamers. for short trips. and they fir-t rive and depart'with a regularity as unccasing as the Broooklyu or Jersey City ferry boats. The grand sight on shore is the roy- al palace, which is open daily. and is shown by attendants. who speak pret- ty fair English. Speaking English, 1 may say is an accomplishment master- ed by a majority of Swedes in trade and commerce. You are reasonably sure to find English speaking clerks in all stores of any pretence. The palace is no exception. We were fortunate enough on our first day to witness the arrival of the king and his staff to at- tend a Council of Ministers. lie lives at this season in the suburbs. He came in an ordinary lnndau drawn by two fine horses, with a uniformed driver, without military escort or other par- ade of royalty. King Oscar is now sev- cnty-flvo years old, but is hole and hearty, and popular. There were fifty (termini tourists, who had heard of his intended arrival, and had been waiting nearly two hours to see him. in our Republican simplicity We had no warn- ing that the king was expected. and our seeing him was purely a coinci- dence. The palace is well worth see- ing. it is an immense pile. some what antiquated in architecture, but it dates back'to 1697. and its comple: lions has been interrupted by wars. The view of the rooms open to the public takes several hours, and the artistic decorations are so often ails. goricui that it requires a long study to understand them. The handsome wood carvings everywhere visible are. among the hneiatnlin the world. The ceiling paintings are mostly by liai- iun artists of the first half of the eighteenth century. The royal npart~ meals are sumptuously adorned with curved patrolling, and the ceilings. Tasteful antique- furniture. porcelain. sculptures and paintings are very rich and interesting. There is a silver throne flanked by fine bronze statues of Gustavus Adolphus and Charles XIV . One of the wings of the palace is de— voted to a museum of armor and cos— tumes, which is'one of the finest of its kind in existence. 0n the walls are tho trophies of weapons. Swedish flags and standards from the begin- ulnar of the seventeenth century on- wards, including; equestrian und- oibl.‘ suits of armor. The words of the old kings, damascanod chimes and daggers. enriched with precious stonessnd rel— ics of glistavus‘“hdolpltus abound; lie is still the great idol of the Swedes. (inc case contains the blond stained shirt and leather jcrkin worn by the crest soldier when he was wounded at llnnlzic, 1627, and the shirt in which he. was killed at Lumen. the same year. The costume chamber includes lllll- forms of kings and queens, coronation robes. saddle-cloths heavily embroid- ered and other relics'of former days. There are bedroom furnishings and trappings of royalty which still are interesting. bub as a good Republican said on another occasion, when view- his the riches of royalty on; one hand and the poverty~of the poo is on the other: “No wonder the pi seats are poor," As a historical museum these relics are of priceless value. but they are reminders of days never'to return. Another of the sights ofStockhoim which shun d not be missed is the Rid- davhtilm Church, which with its con— spicuous perforated spire of cast Iron 290' feet above the sidewalk was for- “has been the burial place of the Swed. lsh‘ kings and heroes since the days of Gustavus Adolphus.

It was conducted in 1632. in ~. cordance with the king's order in 16 9. prior to his departure for Germany. ills remains are within a green. main his sarcophagnsf covered by‘hbanner bearing the Swedish arms.

This place is called Skam son. and is one of the finest attractions of the place, i have no time to write of all the other attractions of Stockholdm, and fear that more description of my own impressions of these things may be wearisome to the Sentinel readers. But I must say a word about the palace of llrotlningholm. Which means "Queen‘s inland." and is reached after a delight- ful sell of a half hour among the is- lands, The chief edifice was built about 1750, and is adorned witl'some remarkable works of art and surround- ed by gardens of rare beauty, embel- lished with sculptures in' bronze. worked by distinguished artists. A cur- ious picture is a Chinese pagoda erect- ed by the king in"l770, as a surprise to his Queen Louisa Ulrika. it must have surprised her indeed, as it has many generations since. It is in fact a great folly, and the attempt of u lot of ital— ian artists to paint Chinese figures and objects is a dismal failure. We are off tonight for Copenhagen. and really homewsrd bound.

They have been selling subscriptions to Well-known magazines. and throw- ing in With the deal two or three books. They have been making all sorts of combinations. if you looked like‘a Scribner reader. they would combine Sch;. of” with Sherlock Holmes books it you had sharp. in- quisitive features. or with Tennyson of you had blue eyes and light hair. About two weeks ago. a good looking fellow struck town with a brand-new proposition. lie was sent all the way from Philadelphia to Stamford to get subscriptions to the Saturday Evening Post. and in order to deliver the goods to the Curtis Publishing Company. he would give aimest any sort of a premium in the shape of a book that one mind think of. Unlike the other book-agents who had been in town. this fellow was in the business solely for the benefit of the town. He ex. plained that the Curtis Company had discovered that the boys who were selling its weekly in Stamford were not giving enough attention to sub« scribers. and. in order that the read- ers might be treated well in them- titre. he proposed to take subscrip- tions and to give a. premium besides. This was only one of the stories he told. .. e was well dressed. a splendid conversationalist. and could talk lit- erature by the yard. He succeeded in getting about 50 subscriptions in town. and he told all the subscribers that the Post Would begin to arrive ltt about a week. Then he got out of town. ‘ it seem that one of his customers became a little suspicious, and when he hadn’t received the Post no to last Saturday, he talked with some other subscribers about it. The result was that a letter was sent to the Curtis Company enclosing the. reeeipt'which the agent had given. This morning ‘a reply from the publishing concern was received. part of which is as fol- lows: "We beg to state that we have not received your subscription, and the man to whom it was given is an im- postor. for whose arrest and convic- tion we have offered a reward of $25. We know nothing whatever concern- ing him beyond the complaints re- ceived. it is our purpose to send a cir- cular descriptive Of his personal sir pearnnce to the police departments throughout the section of the country in which he is working. asking for .their assistance in apprehending him. To those so swindled we have been of- ferng to share the loss and to enter their subscriptions at half rates." The canvassor gaveihis name here as G. B. Billings.
