LIFTING THE VEIL.
A Glance Into The Future Reveal

Beyond the Alps lies Italy, and be-
yond the veil which shuts out the fu-
ture lies that which the majority of
humanity likes TO know a visit to
the Chaldeans, - the scientific palm
lists and clairyoyants who have for
the present a temporary Office in the
Southland Building, II Church Circle,
will reveal this and is worth much
more than the small fee asked. The
lady consultant is far above the ordi
nary class of palmists. She is Guitar
ed. refined and has pleasing person
ality. Her methods are scientific and
she impressses the visitor with the
fact that she has made careful study
of reading character from the palm
The face, eyes, mouth and forehead
also form an important part of her
science
1t was the pleasure of a Capital
reporter TO visit the Ohaldeans yester-
day and to gain some insight into
their methods of work. About the
first question asked is the day ard
hour of birth, the month. but not
necessarily the year The planets at
the time OF birth play an important
part in the lives of men and women,
whom they more or less influence.

domestic affairs, travels. health and
advises accordingly. The palm read
ing BY the Chaldeans has been reduced
to science and those who have con-
suited them are more than pleased.
A number of prominent people in
Annapolis have had their palms and
horoscopes read by thisscientificsychi ic

they represent themselves. For this
week a special offer issbeing made aud

Although Gods plans like lilies

TAlNs SEVERE DEFEAT IN
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
sIvEn ANOTHER CHANCE FOR LIFE
OPPOSITION ISSUES CHALLENGE
FOR DECISIVE TEST VOTE
ON MONDAY NEXT.

London, July 22.-The house of COM
mons sat nearly an hour during the
day and then adjourned until Monday
to await the governments decision re-
garding its future course of action in
view of the defeat of the ministry on
John Redmond's motion to reduce the
membership of the Irish land commits
sion.
The house was packed in every part.
Much excitement was visible on all
sides and there was q disposition to
view the defeat of the government as
more serious than it was regarded In
the earlier hours. Immediately after
the house had assembled Sir Henry
Campbell Bannerman, the Liberal lead
er, moved its adjournment, declaring
that 1t would be unseemly under the
circumstances to proceed with busi-
ness while the government was con-
sidering its position. Premier Balfour,
however, declined to adjourn the house
until the bill dealing with the diner
ences of the Scottish United Free
church and the Free church had been
passed. This was quickly accom-
plished, the house rose and the ex-
cited members swarmed into the lob
bies eagerly discussing the probable
decision of the cabinet on the question
Of resigning.
The view that the government will
resign, however, is not held in circles
generally well informed OF the govern
ment's intentions and 1t Is reiterated
that the resignation of the Balfour
ministry is not likely in view OF the
almost practical certainty that the
government will be rehabilitated by
its normal majority on the trial OF
strength July "a, to which the opposi-
tion formally challenged the ministry

advantage Of the typographical char
acter of the district offered the most
desperate resistance. The Russian
positions were hidden among q thick
forest and 1t was impossible for the
Japanese gunners to make a correct
observation. The cannonade, how.
ever, was opened by the Japanese at
6 o'clock on the morning of July z
and was kept up until dusk. The
Japanese infantry, gradually gaining
ground, closed in on the enemys line
OF defense and awaited an opportunity
for the final charge. 1t was nearly
two hours past midnight when the en-
emys first line of defense. strength
ened by barricades and trenches. was
taken. This success was vigorously
followed up, but 1t was not until 3
O'Clock on the morning of July that
the enemy was driven out of the Sec
ond line of his defense and victory
secured, with trophies Of four field
and one machine gun. The nature OF
the ground placed the Japanese assail.
ants at a great disadvantage.
