even TO a clash of arms" there will be
no war.
To those VINO are not familiar with the
symbols of astrology the diagram may
seem a trifie obscure, and a word or two
of explanation is necessary.
Briefly, the astrologer bases mis- pre-
dictions on the positions which the diff
ferent planets occupy at a given time
in the belt of the Zodiac. Each of the
planets indicates a certain tendency
which may be favorable or otherwise.
Likewise. each of the u signs of the 10
diac relates to certain subjects. When
the relations and influences of the diff
ferent members of the two groups are
known the prediction becomes COM
paratively simple matter. The reckon
ing is made from the sign Aries. which
stands. at the present instance. for the
United States. Spain is represented by
the Geminii. which. in spite of some dis
turbance, Is governed by distinctly
peaceful influences. This indicates that
Spain. however she may buster is real
~ anxious TO preserve peace and will
endeaVor to do so. The governing DOW
ers of the United States. on the other
hand. are Symbolized by Capricornus.

mitted only so far as it did not con-
fiict with military necessities.
If war should he suddenly declared,
and il became necessary to put an
army in condition to take the field. the
general in command upon an order
from the secretary of war. would at
once recruit the regular military es-
adjustment up 10 its full limit of eff
ficiency. These men, together with the
volunteers who had been requisitioned
from the governors of the various
states, or had been raised by direct
enlistment. would be assembled at
some convenient point where they
would be formed into regiments,
brigades and divisions under officers
of sufficient rank in the regular army.
Most of the volunteers, when they
reached the rendezvous, would be
found to be imperfectly clothed and
shod. and also. in many cases. entirely
ignorant of the simplest features Of
the life of soldier in the field These
men must be taught To know what is
expected Of them on the march and in
camp. and what they must do To pre-
serve their health.
ONE DAYS FIGHTING IN THIRTY.
With an army in the field hardly one
day in 80 is given to fighting. The other
% days of waiting must be lived
through in order that everything may
be in readiness for the one day of work.
1t is not the one day of fighting which
turns the hair of an officer gray. but
the 20 days of anxiety for his men. the
supply of their food and clothing and
the maintenance of health and good
spirits among them. Men do not fight

more strongly in the United States than
in Spain. Were Spain as anxious for

would be inevitable, but from present
indications. when it comes to decisive
action the former nation viii endeavor
10 avoid an armed conflict.
The other leading nations find their
representations in the neighboring sign

fiuence of the sun. moon and Venus are
decidedly favorable to the United States
Saturn alone is in opposition. and his
position in Libra fOretells great expense
and diplomatic complications for the
country. There are other factors to be
taken into account but the general con-
clusion of the astrologer is that while
there is certain to be violent disagree
ment between the United States and
Spain. and possibly even an armed col
lision. there certainly Will be no pro-
tracted war.
More than this the chart shows that
in the European countries a warlike con-
dition will be apparent throughout the
year. and this viii become acute al the
close OF the present L months or early
in 1888. and that a war between foreign
nations is certain to occur before the end
