No Country in Europe Tak­ing Greater Interest in

„ f. Its Opening.

Copenhagen. March 2«.—The sen timent of nationalism is growing; in Denmark by leaps and hounds, and a I notable result is the collection of a ' huge public fund for the defense of the country. Repeated dentands on the government for additional fortifi­cations have met with little response, and private interest.* have now de­termined to take up the work.

The .subscription is headed by the tins and ciueen, and other members ; pf the royal family have contributed! generously. The money is now pour- | Ing in from all sources, schools, busi- I Dess house.? ami offices contributing i freely. Several artists have donated ' their paintings to l>e .«old for the tund.

The present unrest, in Europe is largely responsible for the interest in this remarket hie measure of national defense. The Danish people feel that in the case of a war between any of the great powers, their country would be crushed unless they are in a posi­tion to enforce armed neutrality.

Interest in Panama. No"nation in Europe is taking more

interest in the opening of the Panama canal than Denmark.

The East Asiatic company is mak­ing arrangements to run a direct line Of steamships from Copenhagen to the Golden Gate via the canal, and Den­mark expects that the new waterway Will place the fruits and wines of the pacific coast within reach of her purse, as well as provide a market lor her products.

The visit to Copenhagen of the Commissioners of the Panama-Pacific International exposition aroused great )ocal interest, and Denmark is determ­ined to be adequately represented at the San Francisco fair. This feeling Of neighorliness with the United States was increased by the recent Bift of Rebbild Park to Denmark by a large group of Danish-Americans. Many Danish merchants have return­ed recently from tours of the United

States, where they went to get into >ucta with the latest business meth­

ods, and the closeness with

Sentences Left to Court. "Besides the one already mentioned,

another amendment was made just be­fore the bill became a law. This was to satisfy constitutional objections, and it provides that the imposition of fines or imprisonment for violation of the act shall be in the discretion of the court instead of the department of agriculture. In this connection it is gratifying to note that one of the most able lawyers in the country expressed

PODCHtElD SPEND IT ALL

French President Wants to Emulate Taft When He

Retires from Office.

Paris, March 25.—President Poin-care has made up his mind to spend, as fast as he receives it, every P«nny of his presidential income of $240,000 a year. Then, at the end of his seven-year term he will return without sav­ings to earning his living as a law­yer. A total Income during the term of office of nearly $1,700,000 has giv­en opportunity to previous French presidents to lay aside a snug sum against the time when they retire to private life, but even this commend­able thrift does not enter into the plans of the new president of the French republic.

M. Poincare expressed his deter­mination to be lavish in his expendi­tures to a lawyer friend a few days ago. His friend thought this was rather unwise, and pointed out to the president that his private means were not large.

"What will you do, If you don't save anything, when you are no longer president?" he asked.

"Do?" answered M. Poincare, "why, work, of course. Mr. Taft is going to become a professor at Tale when he leaves the white house; why shouM not I put on my advocate's gown again?"

Can Display Medals, Etc. Although French presidents only

appear with the sash of the Legion of Honor in public, they could, if they wished, display as many variegated ribbons, stars and crosses as any here­ditary monarch in the world.

Of living ex-presidents, M. Loubet holds the record; he has no less than thirty-three Grand Ribbons and Grand Crosses, as ajralnst twenty-eight for his successor, M. Fallieres. M. Loubet alone among ex-presidents has the Golden Fleece of Spain; the Lion of the Netherlands; the Lion of Norway; the Imtiaz of Turkey; the Liberator of Venezuela; the Star of Ethiopia; the Order of Daniel I. of Montenegro; the Golden Lion of Lux­emburg; the Redemption of Liberia, and the Order of the Blood of Tunis. M. Fallieres holds exclusively the Grand Cordons of St. Stephen; of Charles III; of Christ of Portugal; of St. Olaf; of the Nlcham-Iftikhar, r.nd of the Order of C«rol I of Roumania.

Columbus* Nationality Vexes. The questions of the nationality of

Christopher Columbus, and where ho was born, continue to prove an inex­haustible subject of discussion for historians aad philologists.

The. latest contribution to the de­bate comes from a French writer, Henri Schoen. who brings forward a number of new arguments In support of the tradition that Christopher Co­lumbus was born at Calvi. In Corsica. This tradition is, of course, in direct contradiction to the theory that the discoverer of America was of Genoese birth, and it is also contrary to the views of such learned Spaniards as de la Riega and the Marquis de Dos Fuentes, who maintain that Colum­bus, or Colon, according to the Span­ish form of the name, was in reality <i native of Galicla, in Spain, a fact which he always concealed with the object of hiding his Jewish origin.
