COMING OF THE MILLENNIUM.
Alleged Prophecy of an Infant Near
Warsaw, in Russia.
washington Star

w G,AAAAA-SOAA OloA*J
I'm one years time there Will be
great war between the world powers.
and in three years we will witness
the coming of the millennium
This startling prophecy, 1t is de-
clared, was short time ago made by
a male child only months old, born
in a small village near Warsaw. Rus
STA. S. Berlin, a Seventh street mer-
chant. recently received a letter from
his father in Russia relating the Incl
dent According to the letter the
mother left the home for few mo-
ments and told her 7-year-old daughter
to look after the babe.
For some reason the little girl be
came frightened and began to cry,
when, according to the letter. she was
startled to hear the 3-mOnths-Old baby
address her plainly with the words:
Don't cry; mamma will be back
soon" This unexpected speech from
such a source scared the girl still
more, and she ran out of the house in
search of her mother, to whom she re-
lated the incident The mother imme-
diately went to the baby and began
questioning him, and finally the boy
spoke again and said: Send for the
rabbi
The rabbi was Immediately called
and several of the neighbors who had
noticed the excited state of affairs
about the house also dropped in to
ascertain the cause of the connection.
When the rabbi entered the room
where sat the prodigy the baby re-
fused to speak until he and the rabbi
were left alone. and when the room
had been cleared, it is said, he gave
utterance to the prophecy mentioned
previously.
A few days after Mr.. Berlin received
his letter with the story of the wonder
full child, another gentleman in Wash
ington received a letter from a differ
ent party relating the same incident as
that told in the first letter. II is said
that the prediction has created great
CONSERVATION among the Jews of Rus
STA. as, naturally, it was calculated 70
do.
Several Hebrews told a reporter for
the Star that. according to the Torah.
the millennium is due in about three or
four years, and they seemed much i'm
pressed by the reports that have come
from Russia They consider this proph-
eey as a Verihcati0n or reminder of
the approaching reign of the Jews. The
destruction of the Mahometan and
anti-C Christian kingdoms and the res
torauOn of the seed OF Abraham to the
favor of God. they say. are all that is
necessary to the introduction of the
millennium.

out of the top of the casing in large
quantities and that il was the best
strike yet made in the district. The
quality is claimed to be the best, and

SENATOR JAMES MMILLAN.

The death of Senator James McNIil-
Ian, who for the past thirteen years
has represented Michigan in the upper
house. of congress, will be regretted by
all Americans who admire men of great
business acumen. Because of his quiet
demeanor and indisposition to oratory
he has been less known in the country
than those of his colleagues possessing
a gift of gab," but at Detroit and in
Michigan Mr.. Mcmillan is measured at
his true worth, for it was there that
he was power in financial and manu-
featuring circles and where he made a
name for integrity which will last long
after the tomb has claimed its dead
Senator Mcmillan was beloved by his
neighbors, not only for the qualities
mentioned, but because of his philan-
thropy and his readiness to lend help
ing hand and purse in building up the
community in which he lived. He was
for three years president of the De-
troit park commission and to him is
due large part of the credit for the
splendid park and boulevard system
of the. City of the Straits.

for the protection and extension of
their own business. and disregarding
any and all governments as an orig
inal factor in the transaction, proceed
to lay the enduring groundwork for a
substantial control of transatlantic
carrying commerce.
The event offers another illustration
of the advantage of freedom in trade.
What we think possible of accomplish
ment only through the direct aid Of
the national treasury has been accom-
plished offhand in the course of a COM
paratively few weeks by private enter
prise. The event may operate either
to promote or to retard the movement
for government subsidies now pending
in congress. Whatever it's operation in
that respect may be it is the most eff
fective demonstration that could be
given of the truth that marine interests
which are not capable of maintaining
themselves without the intervention of
government are not deserving of being
maintained through the medium of a
government subsidy.
