STRANGE PROPHECIES.
MoLay, the Grand Master of the Tenn
plars, and others Pre-
dicted Truly.

Clement V. and Philip. procured the
condemnation of Molay, the grand mas
ter of the templars, to the stake. AS he
was led to execution Molay cited his
prosecutors to appear before Gods
throne, the king within 40 weeks and
the pope within 40 days. Within those
respective times both died. Rienzi, the
last of the tribunes, condemned to
death Fra Morale. When he had pro-
nounced the sentence the culprit sum-
moned the judge to meet death himself
within the month, and within the
month RienZi was assassinated.
In 1875 Manning Koppezoon, Roman
Catholic, tortured to death during the
religious strife in the Netherlands, re-
canted his eXtorted confession when on
the way to the scaffold. A clergyman,
Jurian Epeszoon, tried to drown his
voice by clamorous prayer. The victim
summoned him to meet him within
three days at the bar of God, and Epes-
zoon went home and died within that
time. While at the stake Wishart open
ly denounced Cardinal Beaton: "He
shall be brought low, even to the
ground, before the trees which have
supplied these fagots have shed their
leaves" The trees were but in the
bravery of their May foliage when the
bleeding body of the cardinal was
hung by his murderers over the battle
ments of ST. Andrews. - Chambers

FISH AT 5000 A POUND.

ner and Habits.

The ordinary housekeeper. who would
consider 25 cents pound an excessive
price to pay for fish, may be more than
contented by the knowledge that some
kinds of fish are sold here which would
bring hundreds of dollars if valued by
the pound.
One of these fish is now shown in al
uptown aquarium store. 1t is called the
Celestial Telescope" and though less
than four inches long is priced at $l2,
without accessories. A four-inch fish
weighs trife less than an ounce. At
$12 an ounce, then, these fish would
be worth $192 pound, which is prob
ably the highest price charged for any
kind of fish in New York.
''The celestial telescope is a fancy
variety of goldfish, and gets its name
from its enormous google eyes, which
are set nearly or quite on the top of its
head. 1t exemplifies perfectly, in fact,
Edward Everett Hale's advice to "look
up and not down." Most fish whose
eyes are thus situated, the angler or the
founder, for example, are inclined 10

from below; this one, however, has
never outgrown the free-swimming hab-
its of its ancestor, the common goldfish,
and generally keeps near the surface
of the water. In this position it can
see practically nothing except floating
objects, and it often misses the most
tempting morsels if they happen to be
floating below it.
Besides its extraordinary eyes, the
fish possesses most of the other peculi-
arities sought after by the fish fanciers.
In fact, it is the most "fancy" fish pro-
duced, and is intended to differ as much
as possible from the natural goldfish.
1t has an enormous double "fan-tail,"

less for swimming purposes; an extra
urge size of scales, and color varie
by irregular patches of black, more of
which features are natural attributes

There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable For a great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by f. j.
Cheney & Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops to
ceaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood

| with us. The Republican party says
! the time has come when we should
become world power. The answer
TO them is that the country Is today
a world power and has been ever
since we adopted the declaration of
independence. Wars and colonies do
not make a country a world power
Instead of making n country greater
and freer they poison the headwaters
OF freedom and patriotism.
1--WE have lifted higher the stand
ard of civilization than any other
nation, and we will continue to be a
world power as long as we are true
to our traditions No nation is good
enough to own another party"
After some further talk about i'm
peralism, he paid his respects TO Gov
ernor Roosevelt, who. he said, had
made a cowartlly attack on some Of
the most patriotic citizens Of our coun-
try, because they are Democrats.
"Thc Republican party" he said. "is
off on all the leading issues of the day.
and hopes to save the day with their
full dinner pail"
The speaker admitted there has been
peculiar kind of prosperity during
the last few years. The trusts have
been making money, he said. This was
his finish.
"Tn William Jennings Bryan is your
only hope Of saving this republic, and
with his election the dream of empire
VIII fade away as mist before the
morning sun"
CONRY SPOKE.
Michael +. Conry. the candidate for
congress, was the last speaker of the
evening. He said that he has made so
many speeches of late that his voice
has grown weak, and that as the hour
was late he would be brief. lie spoke
for fifteen minutes.
Mr.. COnry lost no time in attacking
trusts in general and the anthracite
coal trust in particular, which, he said.
is dominated by j. pierpont Morgan,
who is the representative of European
capital. He said il he is sent to con-
gress he will labor with might and
main to attempt to secure a bill which
will make arbitration compulsory.
He then turned to Imperialism and
discussed the historical feature of it.
He said imperialism is repugnant to
the very spirit OF Democracy and if we
continue this colonial system we will
destroy the basic principal upon which
our government is founded.
Governor Pattson and party will
leave this morning for Williamsport,
where the governor will speak tonight.
