fact that specific warnings Of every

famous Almanac for many years. The
latest startling proof of this fact was
she destruction OF Galveston, Texas, on
the very day named by Prof. Hicks in
his 1900 Almanac, as one OF disaster by
storm along the gulf coasts. The 1901
Almanac, by far the 6neSt, most COM
