Hits of Palmistry and Horoscopes.

A most peculiar case of prophecy full.
filled comes from Omaha, Neb., observes
the New York Telegram. Years ago,
in the Old Country, a venerable gypsy
crone told the fortunes of two friends,
Shanahan and Donovan. She said their
fates would te the same. They emiigrated
to this country together and both were
married on the same day. Their wives
died on tho same day, and the two
friends both died on the same Monday
and were both buried together. The old
gypsy told fortunes by palmistry.
Another triumph of line-reading in the
hands was the more famous prophecy
made of Josephine of France by an aged
c-one, when the future Empress was
golden haired girl on the island OF Mar
Unique. All the predictions then made
of .Josephine's rise from nothing to
throne and her subsequent pitiful down.
fall were fulfilled.
In the reading of horoscopes, history
is full of astonishing records, but the
hest remembered here is the amazing
prophecy of violent death to Presioent
Garfield, made by Ruthiel, the star.gazer
of Baltimore. Months before Guites9
fred his shot at the President, Ruthlet
had prophesied the disaster almost to q
! dav simply by reading the astrologlcaas
language Of Gssaelaa planetary aso
stellar fatea.

The Fate Of Humanity.

There are SO64 languages in the world,
and its inhabitants profess more than
1000 religions.
The number of men is about equal to
the number of women. The average
lie is about thirty-three years. One
quarter die previous to the age of seven
teen. To every 1000 persons only one
reaches 100 years of life. To every 100
only six reach the age of sixty-f five, and
not more thar one in 500 lives to eighty
years of age. Am ooo oo,
inhabitants; of these 33,OS3,033 die
every year; 81, ss4 every day, S7So every
hour, and 60 every minute, or l every
second. =. A.
The married are longer lived than the
single and, above all, those who observe
a sober and industrious conduct. Tall
men live longer than short ones. Women
have more chances of life in their IaVor
previous to fifty years OF age than men
have, but fewer afterward.
The number of marriages is in the pro
portion of rs to every 1000 individuals
Marriages are more frequent after equl..

June and December. =,

At Greenwood, Ca, Coke Talmadge,

Miss Sue Blakely, of Warren county,

teen rattlesnakes, five copperheads, and

Joe Thompson, of Orlando, Fla, tells
of coach whip snake that danced back

tion in which to strike, but which he
shot and killed before it had the chance.
He says it measured thirteen feet two
inches in length, and was four inches
across the head.

The Central Cross.

In the palace Of Justice at Rome they take
you sometimes into chamber with strange
Iy painted frescoes on the ceiling and around
the walls and upon the floor in all kinds OF
grotesque forms You cannot reduce them
to harmony, you cannot make out the per-
spective; 1t is bewildering maze OF confu-
sion. But there is one spot upon the floor
Of that room, and one only, standing upon
which, every line falls into harmony; the
perspective is perfect, the picture flashes out
upon you, instinct with meaning In every
line and panel You can see at that point,
and that only, the design Of the artist that
painted it

crush me down, until take my stand at the
foot of the Cross Then darkness and dis
cord become light and harmony the mystery
is solved; the night that shuts me in becomes
radiant with the Divine light and glory. At
the foot Of the Cross, art, science, literature,
history become at once to me Divine, q
glorious and blessed thing. And so claim
for my Lord His rightful dominion over all
the works of His hands. We will gather all
the beauties of art all the treasures OF
music, all that is brightest and best in this
world, and we will lay them down. at His

PeriIs of Travelling in England.

The English railway compartment cars,
isolated, without any continuous passage
way y,and without the presence Of the conduc-
tor or brakeman while the train is in motion,
are sometimes places of great exposure and
peril to passengers who are so fortunate as to
have bad company. The Pau Mat Gazette
mentions the recent journey from London to
Liverpool of gentleman and his niece, and
another gentleman, his wife and two chill
dren, when three forbidding. looking men
entered their compartment at Willesden for
Rugby. All three had been drinking, and
one was obviously drunk, with bottle from
which he continued to drink, until he be-
came quite crazed. He stripped himself to
the waist and struck one of his companions
in the face, drawing blood" The children
were pressed into corner, the writer of the
account and the other gentleman standing
guard; whereat the maniac called for the
key OF his bag, so that he might get his knife
out and make clean sweep of the whole
carriage" Just then the train steamed into
Rugby station. and they were rescued from
what threatened speedily to culminate in
fearful tragedy. Liquor drinking, both on
the land and the sea, adds greatly to the peril
o. travel.

The late John Wentworth was man

The late John Wentworth was man
who never had home. AS young
man he "roomed" and lodged" AS q
middle-aged man he changed his stop
ping-place as often as he did his shirt.
As an old man he spent the greater
part of his time in hotel. The noise,
the hustle, the roar of the city were to
him melodious. He loved to be in the
very vortex of stormy assembly. he
was one of those men who would have
died long before his time in retirement
or seclusion. To him the ratting OF
the carts and cars and the noises OF the
city were far more pleasant than the
quiet and repose of the country. He
tried farming, but he didn't like it.
The corn-felds and meadows had no
charm for him. It was only when IN
the turmoil of active life, or when
storming the Notifications of some hated
foe, that he really felt happy.
