1901 PREDICTIONS.
Events That Arc Forstold For Next Year Ia
a0ld Noore's" Almanac.


"old Moors's" Almanac.
In his London Almanac for 1900 "Old
Moore" predicted more than one great
work, the assassination Of monarch
and a terrible famine in India, and as
all these terrible predictions proved
true, many persons not only in Europe
but also in this country, have been for
sometime curious to know what kind
Of predictions he would make In his al
manac for 1901. Their curiosity can
now be satisfied, for his almanac for
the coming year has just appeared.
Here are the. principal predictions
in 1t:
In January there will be formidable
agitation in France and a severe at
tack will be made upon the republic.
In February and March most notable
events will take place in the extreme
East, and India will threaten to rise
Up against 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 ex-
ample Of India and will rebel against
England.
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 en-
L. {n
against them.
July will be month Of catastrophes,
the whole world being threatened at
this time with misfortunes Of various
kinds. Those who are planning to take
q journey during the month, Will DO
we'll to remain at home.
August will be comparatively quiet.
During September India will again
suffer terribly from famine.
During October the Derv1shes Will
start agitation, which may attain for
midable proportions.
In November the kingdom OF Hol-
land will attract attention by its dan
gerous and novel diplomatic policy, ana
the statesmen in the various foreign
offices will have to exercise all their
skill If they would avoid conflict.
In December there will be lnsurrec-
tions, revolts and strikes, and they Will
be the striking features 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 puzzling their brains
to discover how this little kingdom can
ever manage to attract attention by
dangerous and novel diplomatic poll
cy," which will cause European states
men to lay awake at night.-NeW YORK

othy at Carvel Hall, waited on by the

very mysteriously, her eyes brimfui
Of mischief, to come back with the
first strawberries Of the year staining
her apron"
WHEN KNIaHTHooD WAS IN FLOWER"
After short silence Mary contin-
ued, half banteringly: Answer me,
sir! will have no more Of this. You

"Oh, that you were only burgher's
daughter"

It can't be helped and you shall answer
me-"
There is no answer, dear lady-I beg
you-Oh, do you not see"
Indeed, yes; thousand times. You
have always been so kind, 80 gracious,
and 80 condescending to me that can
only thank you, thank you, thank you,"
answered Brandon, almost shyly, not
daring to lift his eyes to hers.
"Oh, that Is one thing wanted to
ask you about. Jane tells me you
are going to New SPAIN"
II have volunteered with ship that
sails in two or three weeks from Bris-
tol, and hope shall CO."
Oh, no! Do you really mean it?"
It gave her a pang to hear that he
was actually going, and her love pulsed
higher.
II should like to remain in Eng
land" replied Brandon until can save
enough money out Of the Kings allow
ance to pay the debt against my IA
theirs estate.' I could have paid
1t with what I lost to Judson before I
discovered him cheating"
She looked up with a light in her
eyes and asked: what Is the debt?
How much? Let me give you the
money. I have 80 much more than I
need. Let me pay 1t. Please tell me
how much 1t is and>I will hand it to
YOU"
"Ah! you want to pay the debt that
may have no excuse to remain? Is
that It? Perhaps you are not so kind
after ALL"
mo! no! you know better" She
drew closer to. him and put her hand
coaxingly upon his arm. With an ire
sistible impulse he took the hand in
his and lifted 1t t9his lips in lin
gering caress that could not be mis-
taken.
Then her woman spirit fell before the
whirlwind Of his passion, and she was
on his breast with her white arms
around his neck, paying the same trib-
ute to the little blind god that he
would have exacted from the lowli-
est maiden Of the land. Just .as though
1t were not the blood Of fifty kings
and queens that made so red and
sweet, aye, sweet as nectar thrice dis
titled, those lips which now so freely
paid their dues in coined bliss"
Brandon held the girl for a moment
or two. then fell upon his knees and
buried his face in her lap.
Heaven help mel" he cried.
She pushed the hair back from his
forehead with her hand, and. as she
fondled the curls, leaned over him and
softly whispered:
Heaven help us both; for I love
you ;"

HOUSE RESCINDS ITS ACTION.


Washington, Feb.17.-Late this af-
ternoon the house passed the legisla-
tive, executive and judicial appropria-
tion bill after having it under consid-
Grafton four days. A spirited colloquy
between Sulzer, democrat of New York,
and ~Grosvenor, republican of Ohio, was
the feature of today's session.
Fresh from the antitrust conference
in Chicago, Sulzer directed the aten-
ton of the house to the monster mo-
%nopolies, which, he said, were being
fostered by the republican administra-
ton. He adverted in passing to Ohio
politics. These ]utterances drew the fire
of General Grosvenor, who referred to
the political garbage" which Sulzer
had brought back to Washington after
his "hippodroming tour through the
west as a vice presidential candidate"
The civil service appropriation which
was stricken II of the appropriation
bill in the committee of the whole, was
restored in the house by II to 123.
Cromwell of Ohio offered an amend
ment providing that the head of any
department upon whose rolls the name
of any employee or clerk permanently
incapacitated from performing service
appears, shall report these m to
the civil service commission, in order
that an employee of proper capacity may
be designated for the service The

AMERICANS TO BUILD.

Chicago, Feb. 1S.-A special to the
Record from Monterey, Mex, says: An
American syndicate with a capital of
$40, 00O, 600. will Immediately begin the
construction of a great steel plant in
this city. The plans for the mammoth
concern have been completed and the
ground purchased for locating the sew
eral buildings. An abundance of high
grade iron ore and coal is within easy
shipping distance.
The plant will make a speciality of
manufacturing steel rails and will be
the first industry of the kind to be es-
tablished in Mexico. It will give en-
ployment to about 1000 men in the
different departments when they are
in operation. Several American CAPT
talists in Monterey are heavy stock
holders in the enterprise.

ANGLOPHOBIA IN RUSSIA.
Sentiment is Shown at Pantomime
Burlesque of South African War.

London, Feb. 1.-THE London Times
correspondent declares that the Anglo
phobia in st. Petersburg knows no
bounds. The most popular entertain
ment there is a burlesque imitation OF
the fighting in South Africa, in which
performers representing English SOL
diers are placed in every possible po-
sition of defeat and degradation. while
the impersonators of Kruger and his
followers perform prodigies of valor.
On the first night of this pantomime
there was a wild scene of excitement,
the spectators kissing and hooting the
English and Justify cheering the Beers.
The Sviet says it was ar explosion of
universal hatred of the English and
delight over their discontinue which
have been growing for centuries in the
hearts of all nations of the world"

al increase of 10 per cent in wages was
finally recommended to be acted upon
by the subordinate lodges.
In an interview Chief Arthur said:
Il cannot explain the exact nature
of our business today, further than
that we discussed the general situation
thoroughly. Today's convention was
merely advisory. The minor lodges
will act on its recommendations"
