Om1nous Prophecies Concerning 1886.
London Globe.
Somebody has unearthed an old
prophecy for the year 1886 of decided
ly uncomfortable nature.
1tappears that in the church of Ober-
emmel NEAR the city of Treveri, in Ger
many, there is q stone tablet some CEN
turtles old, ON which is cut the prophetic
verse-in prose it may be rendered:
"Ween Mark shall bring us eacter and
Anthony shall sing praises at Pentecost,
and John swing the censur at the feast
of Corpus Domini, then shall the whole
earth resound with weepings and wall
ings.
Now, it 30 happens that next year cas-
ter falls on st. Marks day, Pentecost ON
that of st. Anthono of Padua, and the
Corpus Domini comes on st. John the
Byptist's daytime "a. Here, then,
are the first conditions of the prophecy
fulfilled. so that now believers in proph-
ecies and anxious n inded persons gem
orally have only to sit down and think
Of everything disagreeable that can pos
sibly happen to this poor old planet and
the dwellers thereon between January
and December, 1896. And, really, if the
cyclones, and earthquakes, and epidem-
les, and "wars and rumors of wars" Of
the years 1882 3-4.5 are not to be eclipsed,
the prospect is not to be an agreeable
one.

At Manhattan the other day, G. G.
Bracket, secretary of the state horticul-
tural society, spoke as follows concerning
the condition of horticulture in Kansas:
He spoke first Of the deplorable condi-
ton of the fruit trees; said he had Wis
tied Marion county to investigate the
ravages of the apple borer; had gone to
the settlements of the Mennonite, near
Halstead, to observe the growth Of the
Russian mulburry tree. Said in sub
stance-that the comparative immunity
of Kansas fruit trees from insect enc
mics and diseases was-through the
multiplication of orchards, no longer q
fact; that orchar lists must begin to plan
and to work against these drawbacks.
The diseases are, however; confined to
old orchards. The past two winters
have been severe on weak trees. After
all do believe that we should rather
look for trees that can stand the intense
heat than trees that will stand the in
tense cold. Even Iowa needs an other
kind of trees than We do. Russian va
rieties Of apple trees are probably not
the kind for us. The secretary then
read an extract from q paper on the he
reditary qualities of trees as transmitted
by seedlings in various methods Of graft

the sun is resting on one OF the scales.
Now, put the earth on the opposite
scale. You might as well weigh your
head against one Of the towers of the
East river bridge. Pile a hundred
thousand earths into the balance, and
the sun does not stiA There lies the
COLOSSUS immovable. But get together
another hundred thousand earths, and
then another hundred thousand, and
stack them up in the pan against the
sun. Three hundred thousand worlds
piled up on one side of the balance, and
still the sun keeps them up. 1t would
take 80, 600 more, or $50, 0J0 earths, to
make beam against a single sun, and

The SOuth'S Remuneration.

The Star has insisted that the people of
the Southern States had done better for edu-
cation than had been done under the same
environments and stupendous difficulties and
within the same period of time in the history
of civilization. The Star has said that the
Southern people had so borne themselves I'M
der defeat and had so risen to the highest de-
mands put upon them that they had eclipsed
the world and had shown themselves as great
and stocal under defeat as they had been he
role and self sacrificing in war. Time but
confirms all that has been claimed for our
people. Out of disaster Las come progress :;
out of desolation has come prosperity. The
fair fields of our Southland now respond
most generously to he toll of the husband
man. while the industries are multiplying,
and education, so essential to an enlightened
and progressive people, is steadily advancing.
