ANOTHER PROPHET.
Predictions of "old Moore" For the
Year 1901.

predictions of odd Moore" For the
Year 1901
(New York Herald.)
In his London almanac for 1900, "Old
Moore predicted more than one great
war, the assassination of "a monarch
ana terrible famine i'll India, and, as
all these predictions proved true. many
persons, not only In Europe, but also
III this country, have been for some
time curious to know what kind of pre-
dictions he would make in his almanac
for 1901. Their curiosity can now be
satisfied, for his almanac for the COM
ing year has just appeared.
Here are the principal predictions in
it:
In January there will be a formula
BILE agitation in France and a severe
attack Will be made upon the Republic.
In February and March most notable
events Will take place in the extreme
East, India will threaten to rise up
against the British domination.
Though there Will be trouble in va
rious quarters during the entire year,
April will be a comparatively quiet
month.
In May Ireland will follow the exam
PIE of India and will rebel against Eng
land.
In June the Anarchists will again
come TO the front and will give the
world much to talk about During the
same month the young King of Spain
will be in danger from his political enc
mics. and he is cautioned to guard
against them.
July will be month of catastrophes,
the whole world being threatened at
this time with misfortuncs OF various
kinds. Those who are planning to take
journey during this month will do
well to remain at home.
August will be comparatively quiet
During September India will again
suffer fprrthlV from
During October the Dervishes Will
start an agitation. which may attain
formidable proportions
In November the kingdom of Holland
Will attract attention by its dangerous
and novel diplomatic policy. and the
statesmen in the various Foreign
Offices will have to exercise all their
Skill If they would avoid n conflict.
In December there will be insurrec-
lions. revolts ana strikes in various
quarters of the globe. AS rule they
may not be of great Importance, yet
they Will occur at this time, and they
Will be the striking feature of the
month.
AS Will be seen. "Old Moore's" pre-
dictions for 1901 are startling. to say
the least His statement in regard to
Holland is especially curious, and many
persons are puzzlng their brains to
discover how this little kingdom can
ever manage TO attract attention by a
dangerous and novel diplomatic
policy which Will cause European
statesmen to lie awake at night
