Whatever the mystery is, there Is no

are at work in the upper airs. Tho ter

constant revelation of enormous spots
upon its surface-all indicate unusual eIis

These circumstances recall Professor
Grimmer's prophecies that from 1884 10
1897, the passage Of the FIVE great plan
ets-Mars, Neptune, Jupiter, Uranus,
and Saturn-around the sun would pro-
duce strange and wonderful phenomena.
He says "Ihe waters ofthe earth will be-
come more or less poisonous. The air
will be foul with nOisone odors. Ancient
races will disappear from the earth" He
attempts to prove his prophecy
by the fact that in 1920, when Mars
and Saturn made their passage around
the sun coincIdentalIv, great destruction
and mortality visited all parts of the
globe. He also found the same results in
previous perehelion passages ofthe plan"
cts, and argues that these circumstances
always produce epidemics S2d destrqc.
