Some strange predictions in regard to
The twentieth century have been made
from time to time, and Vauki, the occult
ist,. has now collected these into a book
which has just been published in Paris.
In the fifteenth century an unknown
seer prophesied as follows: The king of
Prussia will perish near Lyons, and the
empress Of Austria will lose her reputa-
ton on the plain of ST Fons. The great
prince VIII only reign forty-two moons
and one-third; he will labor for his SON.
The lily Will unite with the lion, and the
royal residence will be at the junction of
the Rhone and the Saone. This line will
last for ten moons, from male 10 male"
Jerome Botin, who died in 1920, left be-
hind him some-peculiar predictions. Aft
er more than four centuries have passed
away" he wrote, the altars of Beelzebub
will be destroyed, the workers of jniquity
will be scattered and destroyed Then
will appear a child Of royal blood, who
VIII come from ArtOis. He will govern
France with honor, and the spirit of the
Lord VIII be with him, for thus saith the
Lord. And a shepherd of the people will
arise, who will be honored by high and
low, but before he establishes his kingdom
let him who has bent the knee to Baal fee
from Babylon, since this is the time whel
the Lord VIII show the magnitude of His
vengeance, will show the magnitude of the
crimes that have been committed against
Him. In those days the good will be test
ed and tie wicked VIII be destroyed. Thes,

Pere Neston prophesied as follows
about 1860: "A great multitude will per

viii endeaVor to destroy the church, but
at the moment when its destruction
seems complete it win be saved. During
this disaster, which will apparently be
world wide, Paris viii be destroyed, so
that fathers, passing over the ruins tWcn-
ty years afterwards, win say to their
children: There was here once a great
city, but God destroyed il On account of
Its Climes.' After these terrible events
law and order will be restored. and the
church VIII enjoy an unparalleled tri-
umph. England will also have a reVolu-
ton, and France will help her to re-es-
tablish peace. While these events are
happening the earth will be so troubled
that the people will believe that God mas
entirely abandoned them"
Rabau-Maur, who was archbishop of
Mayence IN $50, made the following re-
markdble prediction: According to our
leading teachers, when the end of time
IS near at hand one of the descendants Of
the kings of France win reign over the
whole ancient Roman empire, and he will
De the greatest Of all the kings of France

Jerusalem and VIII lay down his crown
and his sceptre on the Mount Of Olives.
Such will be the end Of the Holy Roman
Il NhYTG IN F0faTF-
Saint Francis de Paule in a letter writ
sen by him in 1869 to Simon de Simena,
lord of Montalta, foretells certain events
which were to happen about four hun
dred years after his own dA.th I'm all

subject to them. and they will all be

A quatrain by the celebrated Nostra-
damus is also supposed to refer to the
coming century In those days" he
says, France, Italy, Spain and England
WIFI be at war with each other. And
after II viii come a general war, which
Will be terrible"
\ young man of Lyons had a remark
able vision one day in 1887, a full account
teur on Jan. 13. 1883. Il saw two inn
mense armies on the plain Of st. Fons,"
be writes "One of the armies had no
leader all commanded and obeyed. A
soldier who dared to offer advice was
at once put to death A king command

diers: Our triumph will insure for our

taken root is because they are cucumber

then, do away with social restrictionS'
Then the battle began, and after
long struggle the royal army slowly re-
treated. Thtreupon the king said: Lord,
the blood of a God was needed to save
spiritual socle1y; let the blood of a man
suffice to save political society. I sacri-

From the kabala ard the so-calIed "di-

your treason toward the old faith, is
about to seize you like an easy prey, and
she viii throw you to the ground bleed

remain until your eyes are once more
opened to the light The two women
mentioned here are symbols, the first rep
resenting faith or religion, and the sec

According tc the divine numbers,
there will be many struggles in England
and Ireland, and an attempt will be made
to unite all the people under the same
form of religion
Struggles and disunion followed bv
union is Germany's future as shown
by the cabalistic numbers. The hermat tic
counsel reads: Take care that YOU do

through pride or imprudence. You have
removed many obstacles by yoIIr
strength and patience, but before Won
glorify yourself wait until the evil times
