ASTANLeY HOROSCOPE.
A Harvard Man Says the Explorer WIN
Find Marriage n Failure.

Considerable comment has been oc-
casioned in Boston by the publication of a
prophecy concerning Henry N. Stanley
recent marriage. based on astrological cal
culations of tho exact time Of the wed
ding. which was 2:l0 p. NJ. London time,
July 18th The prophet happens to be con-
nected with Harvard University, and cal
culated the horoscope out of mere curl
osity.
The professor. according to the rules of
the art, finds the indications FOR coanubial
bliss unpropitious. At the time Venus. the
significator OF love and weddings. was
evilly aspected by Saturn and hars. and
the moon was IN a terri bic dilemma. There
will be trouble, discord. and unhappiness,
even death being feared. The couple will
find their temperaments so different az to
cause, sooner or later. an aversion. which
will aggravate the explorers i'll health and
cause him to grow worse. He will take a
sea voyage shortly, and his experience will
go long way towards proving that NAL
rage is failure.
Besides all this the scholastic magician
says some serious trouble is brewing over
their heads which promises some one great
misery.

Ono Frenchman Who Believes in Bis

tchicsgo NewSl

At one time during the Franco-Prussian
war the Germans were quartered at Meaux
distant about twenty-five miles from Paris
and it was here that Bismarck was then
stationed. Upon entering his sleeping
apartment late one night he was amazed to
find tiny baby boy curled up on pillow
on the bed. The little fellow was only a
few weeks old. Pinned to his garments
was note saying:
MY husband died at Sedan. have mo-
thing TO eat. Despair forces me to sepa-
rate myself from my child. He has been
baptized Ia the name of Vincent"
Bismarck scratched his head ruefully
and gazed at this doubtful prize in deep
perplexity. What should he do with it ?
We can fancy that he was sorely troubled.
Finally, however, he determined TO care
for the child. Accordingly no sent II by
special messenger TO Germany, and ordered
it TO be well cared for ut Berlin.
"You did we'll" said old Kaiser Will

Perreux, pleasant village few miles
