railway. On arriving a't the place where
the men were at work I was Introduced
to the superintendent, Herr Llrwell,
and on 'bearing that I was an Amerl-
aam from Vhe girealt ttlalte of Oregon.
he Informed me it!hat he had also been
In Oregon, even In Astori'a. This was
indeed a pleasant surprise, for It was.
and ihe Is the only person I have met
who has been so near home. Through
this gentleman's kindness I was allowed
to form one of a large party of ladles
and gerttleman who were lnvl'ted to
make a trial itrlp on this new railroad
and a merry evening was spent at the
last station, Alna Ryd. The hospitality
and willingness of the Swedish people
to show strangers everything of interest
Is a fact known over the whole of
Europe.
Runeby Springs was jny next stop
ping place; Hhey lie 38 kilometers from
Barlskrona and are reached by rail
During the summer months something
Ktoe 2,000 piftients come here to drink
the water, which contains Iron, and to
baShe in the mud ta'Jhs. They live in
pratty cottages, aind If scenery can cure
Bickness, It seemed to me that tihey
ought to get well In a remarkably short
time. Bafore thtam Is the Kormeby river,
land In the Mgh mountains up among
(these lies an enchanting lake called
Farry Sea, Below Rormeby Springs a
6liort distance Ilea the town of Rorme
by. It has only 1800 Inhabitants, but
was once upon a time a large Danish
city at the time tine Danes held Ble
kinge. There are a great many Danish
relics still to toe seen. Its narrow wind
ing streets have something quaint a
well as picturesque about them.
Rormdby river tumbles over an lm
mvense precipice and forms a rainy cat.
latra'dt, but Its beauty Is spoiled by the
factories which have helped themselves
to Its power to work their machinery.
A short run was made up the river
In a li title steam launch to an Island
called Karon; here I .wandered to my
heart's content, climbing upon high Mils
to 'have a look out over the Baltic, and
InWallng as much salt air as possible.
Karon is a favorite bathing place for
the Rormeby people, and I envied thost
whom I euiw going to taike a dip In the
blue sea, but one can not do everything;
all pleasant days mut come to an end,
and evening found me on the train on
my way to another new place, ewerj
wandering like lan unruly spirit.
The country through which I passed
was only a continuation of all the beau
tiful places I bad seen before, and In a
short time I was In Karlstan, another
eeaport town of 6,400 inhaibitian'ta. As
my stay w.".s to be short I decided to
see the city and its surroundings as
quickly as possible, and this I accom
plished by going up into an observatory
called Believer. This view was taken
early In the momiing while everything
was fresh and pretty, and I was am
ply repaid for climbing up so many
flights of staiira. The sight of Assarum
Valley made me hurry down In order
to get into this beautiful region as
soon as poss-'Dble. All was still and
peaiocfful, so that it seemed a stvaime
that on iron horse should come snort
ing itflirough and stir the tranquility of
he scene. But I was thankful tlhat
lie carrieVl me througb all these charm
ing places. Through, his generosity J
was allowed to oaltch a glimpse of the
River Muraim, which was indeed a
smiling toby, kissed by shadows of ihe
gruoc-ful birches that lined Its binks
then as a merry schoolboy, tumbling
and tearing over the stones that had
been placed as hindrances in its path
tout with boylsb strength It simply
leaped over thenn, and ever changeful,
T aw It runnine d-ad and dark. The
shadows of the firs have darkened itf
brow like the care of 'manbood, and
now I see It no more, but Instead, the
Vilskwida, a station where I was to
Change trates for LJungby, where I was
to visit another eight days. I was now
In Snwland las&in, and thl3 little town
was not unlike alber small towns in
Smoland, being surround'jd by forests
of fir and pine iwbiich abound In deer,
White, pheasant and grouse.
One morning I got up at 6 o'clock to
r,?e tlhe crown prince, who came by a
special train with a number of gentle
men to' hunt. He looked very sleepy
oifter his journey, dthierwise, strange to
toy. Just like other people. He had a
sort of aristocratic bearing, nnd had
graat length but a lack of breadth. Th
king had been here the week before,
and Prince Karl was to come the next
day, but I did not get the opportunity
of seeing either of them.
ASter the prince had eaten breakfast
ait the botel where foe was to stay, ha
caime out clad In a splemdld hunting
costume, got Into a carriage and drove
off amid the hurrahs and well wishes
for a successful hunt, all of which h
responded to by simply taking off bis
bat several times.
My visit to Ljungby had now come to
an end, and agoIn I must wander this
time to Hesse'.ebolm, thence to Tyrlnge,
a regular country place for having a
good time. Here one could hunt, fish,
go berrying, and nutting, do every
thing, In fadt, that IbeJongs to outdoor
life. Oh, What fun I had picking hazel
nuts, and in such quantities were they!
One day, in my attempt to cross a
brook in order to reach an especially
Inviting buah I slipped, and alas, got
a regular ducking, as the boys say.
That did not prevent me from fishing
myself out, and with twice as much
determination to try again, and this
ilme fortune favored me.
It would take too muoh space If
enould tell about all the fun I had In
Ihla little town, tout will. Instead, pro-
oeed to the city of KeUsingbory, one ot j
the pretties; ctuas In Skone. In Its har-
bor one may se-? ships frjm all parts of
the world; but what Interested me most
was a very high tower which looked
as though It migit be an old ruin, and
upon inquiring I was Informed that It
jiad been an old Danish fortress at the

Which ane H&rrflefs grave and castle.
The farmer was simply a mount of
stones. In the center of which was a
granite slab wJKJi the words "Hamlet's
( Grave." His castle Is entirely desert-
ed; there Is not a piece of furniture left
In it, amd only the long mirrors reach
ing from celling to floor, with some
paintings, .remain jto tell of former
splendor. Ghosts seem to creep out ot
every corner, and cold shivers crept
over me as I peeped Into dark closets
and passed through dimily lighter cor
ridors. A short distance from the castle
Is Aphsfllaa Well.
Danish cities resemble those of Swe
den, and I could hardly have known
that I was in another kingdom, had 1
not heard Ithie Danish tanguage spoken
on every side. The Danes are very
obliging people, always willing to an
sawer any question one may ask them,
ainfi give a minute direction as to
which way we shall go, . so that it Is
not difficult to find the place for which
vou are seeking. Never have I heard
a Dane give a short answer to a query,
and the peculiar affectionate way they
have of speaking to a stranger leaves
a strong impression upon one.
My second day in Helslngborg was
spent in seeing its parks and looking In
at the shop windows, tor they have
some fine fJtorea theine. In fact, it Is call
ed little Paris, but how well tt deserved
this name Is more than I can say. The
ninth of September saw me on my way
acrailn to Lund, which. Is a town of
about 11,000 Inihulbltainlbs, the oldest town
In the province of Skone, and largely
supported by the students "who come
from all over the country, as the uni
versities here are considered the best
In Sweden. This is the place where I
hav-3 made my stumping ground for the
oast twenty months, and 'the 1st of
April next I take my deave for the
