the rwO PROPHETS.

1t seems like preposterous adum-
bration when Earl Ii Hung Chang
and Citizeness Mary Elizabeth Lease
are cast upon the sheet that reflects
the images of coming events as prop
het and prophecies of the defeat of
Bryan. Yet the most conservative of
men and the most radical of women
agree in their utterances.
Toan American, a United States Am
erlcan, we mean, who is teaching the
Americans of Winnipeg how to report
for a newspaper, his eminence of China
said: "But you are not a Canadian;
You are an American; what are you,
Republican or Democratic" To whom
the interviewer, whom the Earl trans
formed into the interviewed, answered
and said: 81 am a Democrat" Said
the Earl: "Now, that's too bad; for the
Democrats are going out of power.
Mckinley will be your next President"
And thus the curtain rails upon the
tableau of the Prophet Ii and the Am
erican reporter in Winnipeg,
Next" as the Snowman says, 1--WE
win introduce to your notice Mrs.
Mary Elizabeth Lease. She is the
grand panjandrumess of the Populists
and she is making a speech; you can
see her gestures, and by the aid of the
long -distanced telephone you can hear
what she is saying. Now listen"
What is heard from Mrs. Mary Eliza
beth is this;
When the historian of the future
writes the story of this campaign he
will assign two principal causes for the
defeat of William Jennings Bryan
The first will be Senator David b. Hill
of New York and the second HOke
Smith of Georgia.
"Tis sad. Mrs Lease has been the
nurse, as 'twere, Organism. and now In
prophetic frenzy she forsees him slain
by Hill and Smith. Her vision was not
complete. Some few hundreds of thou.
sands of Republicans and protection
lists will assist his departure.
"What every one says must be true"
is an old saw; equally true is it that
what every one sees must be real; also
that what every one forsees must be
certain of accomplishment; especially
when what everybody forsees has
Chiuese Earl at one end of the line of
observers and Mrs. Lease at the other.

FRANK JAMES NEW JOB.
WIN Guard Bullion Cars Against West.
ern Train Robbers,

cru Tram hODDerS,
1t would be odd if Frank James,
Jesse's brother, were to die at the hands
Of train robbers who followed in
his early fOotstepsl 1t may come to
pass, too.
For now that oft quoted bit OF advise
Set thief TO catch thief" has been
needed by the express companies who
carry fortunes through the Southwest
ern States in their strong boxes, and
who lose them sometimes at the hands
Of desperadoes.
Frank James, whose career of crime
is, perhaps, second only to that of his
notorious brother Jesse, is to accept a
position as special express messenger,
his duty being no other than that of
meeting train robbers at their own
game.
Frank James Is no longer young, but
he can still shoot with both hands and
shoot straight. But it is not on that
aocetlt alone that his services are in
demand. The men who have made
him an offer have decided that the re.
putation which the man won as a des.
peradO whom the band which he and
his brother led was the dreaded scOurge
Of several States, win prove better
safeguard for their bullion than even
his ready revolver.
Indeed it has been said, and with
some foundation. that IL Jesse James
had needed his brothers warning he
would never have been shot down by
Ford, whom he trusted so fully that
heremoYed his pistol belt and turned
his back to him only to receive his
death wound, Frank James had said;
"Trust no one when the price on
your head is big enough to make man
rich"
He is willing to become a watchdog
and guard bullion for living provided |
the men who wish to employ will agree |
TO his terms.
"I'll take che job" he told them.
"and any one who gets the money
from any car I'm riding In win get it
over my dead body. But I've been sup
porting my family and little more, and
If / should 60 under l want to be sure
THAI they win be provided for.

$4,000 in case I'm killed, and I'm the

True, indeed. Palmer is a miracle of
industry, strengt and vitality. The
history of well.spent and happy ca
reer is visible in every motion of his
green old age.
But why say "endured"P He has
not endured it; he has enjoyed it all.
As we have seen him at the head of his
division, or his army corps, at the open
ing or in the deciding crisis Of mighty
battles, there was nothing about him
of the patience and inertia which form
the characteristic of endurance. All
was eagerness, force, concentration,
readiness, and

AN ERA OF UNCERTAINTY AND UN-
REST.

The nineteenth century Is drawing to
0 close amid series OF startling oc-
ourrenoes. What has already happened
has brought upon the world period of
uncertainty and unrest that leads to the
most pessimistic expectations. These
forebodings of evil are intensified by
the appearance of predictions OF dire
terrestrial and national calamities that
greatly increase the general persurha-
ton.
The true philosopher, however, main
tsins his mental calmness and sees in
oil these prophecies nothing to excite
slsrm or to cause unusual apprehen-
sions He realizes in all occurrences
that just and merciful Providetc, di-
recss the affsirs of nations and of men,
and that q clear conscience and full
trust in the dispensstions Of an All
Wise Creator will enable us to receive
with equanimity every change OF zine
and circumstance.
That the world will not last forever
Q knowledge OF it's history and tina
composed mus. convince all studious
and re fleoting minds.
The life Of this earth, however, az
compared with that of the men who
live upon it, seems hardly as thousand
years to single hour. Hence iv is
natural for the human mind TO magnify
the changes constantly occurring and
to look for events ~ at may still be hii-
den in the remote aud mysterious fu
ture. Gsologists tell us that our earth
ID very old, IS man computes time, but
that changes ara slowly aud silently
working which will lead to the decay
and death Of the orb upon which we
live.
This catastrophe may be very remote,
and reasoning from analogy so it Ger
tainlY seems to be. Here, however
human reason AMI human deductions
must stop. as God c.n come 10 at any
time in conformance with His designs
and end existing conditions. TO bring
about higher and more perfect results.
Hence, IL Is that while all real knowi
edge rests upon the B BILE and cosmic
laws, as gained by the study and ex
perience of our wisess men, beyond this
Ia realm Of speculation into which
the Learned, as Ill a, the Ignorant and
bigoted, may enter.
