nae for 1906, with its prediction of good
and evil, has made its appearance. 1t
is we'll to know that, speaking general
ly, Great Britain will not come to any
any harm during the ensuing year. al
though trouble threatens on the conti-
nent. Thus, in January "Anarchism
will develop alarmingly in the Russian
army and navy, and will make some
inroads in the armies of Germany,
Austria and Turkey"
The relations of Great Britain with
some foreign countries, notably Ger
many and Russia, will be complicated
in February, while in March troubles
will arise in Paris, land the stability
of the French republic is somewhat
shaken; the Due d'Orleans may make
a bid for popularity and power" In
England political excitement is renewed
and changes are imminent.
Fires and explosions in London,
storms in the United States and a
financial crisis are predicted in May.
The kaiser is warned to beware of
rash actions" in July, and in August
our statesmen must be prepared for a
sudden and startling denouement on
the continent due to q certain excess

Jack White, the Irish Arab of the

Jack needed the attention of bar

was out on the desert with my three
burros, Harp, Shamrock and Erin,

Say! the intelligence of those birds
OF the desert is wonderful. They know
more than any hotel clerk you ever
saw.
Harp is jealous of Shamrock and
Erin, as the last two helped me in a
number of my finds.
Well. Harp was knocking around,
kicking rock about, when all of sud
den he 'hee-hawed to beat the band.
"I went over to see what was the
matter and he had kicked up a rock
that was threaded with the yellow
goods.
"well, the rest was easy. 1 camped
and filled up, and there was nothing
to 1t but to pick the goods up and
stow it in the sack.
1 had a hard time to keep Shamrock
and Erin from kicking Harp, they
were so jealous, but after a while they
settled down and were as friendly as
ever.
Talk about the Arabian Nights!
got three Arab steeds that beat them
to death.
Eyes, I staked the claims, and now
I'm going to sell them. There's plenty
more, and after 'Scotty up a bit I'm
back to the desert.
