East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-07-28

Professor Gustave Meyer of Hobo
ken, the nations counselor" is pre-
dieting all sorts of dire things at home
and abroad, from hot weather and
earthquakes to an accident to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. all of which, however
the astrologer hopes, may not prove
true. This is what he has to say:
AS a young American astrologer 1
wish to state that great and destruc-
tive electrical storms or atmospheric
disturbances will occur on the 25th
and 2Sth inst, and that it will be
highly advisable for all seafaring ves-
sells to remain in port and for all
those who intend to go down to the
sea in ships. to postpone their voyage
ON these dates and l then have conf
dence that much loss of life and prop
erty can be saved.
Il wish it to be distinctly under
stood that this weather report is pos
itively unofficial, as 1t is purely as
trological as l have no connection
with the United States weather bu-
reau. l might add, in passing, that
we will have summer this year way
into November and that the month of
August will prove to be one of the
hottest months on record and as a re-
suit the mortality will be unusually
large and remarkable distinctions by
fatal electric storms and atmospheric
disturbances will be much in evidence
and will cause great loss of life and
property throughout the east and the
west in particular.
Further, speaking of coming
events. l find that the starry messen-
gers signify and impart to me the fact
that during the autumn months Rus
sia will be quite unfortunate and will
continue in warfare until the new
year, Then she will experience relief
from her troubles, both internal and
external, and the birth of a new re-
public will occur in Russia.
During October great earthquakes
will visit Japan and swallow up hun
dreds of Japanese. and will seriously
affect New York. and l fear that the
Brooklyn bridge will be in great dan
ger of being consumed by electricity
and great calamities viii occur in
mines and underground amusement
of a public building. Therefore it
would he well for all building inspect
ors to be more cautious than usual
Speaking of Broadway in New
York. 1 find that the birth of the sub
way occurred in an evil hour and that
great calamities are indicated to oc-
cur in the subway during August and
October, and l fear that the waters
of the Hudson will rush in.
"I would advise both the authori-
ties of the Brooklyn bridge and the
subway to be more cautious than
usual.
I'm conclusion l will state that the
greatest danger of earthquake and
calamities to the Brooklyn bridge. as
mentioned, 1 fear will occur on Octo-
Der s. On that date. 1 might also add
fear that the life of President Roose-
welt will be in jeopardy and that he
will be in very great danger of meet
ing with a serious and peculiar If not
fatal accident to his knees. similar
to if not worse than that which | pre-
dicted for him in his Pittsfield, Mass,
trolley mishap. I would advise Presi-
dent Roosevelt to remain as quiet as
possible and to be more cautious than
| usual on October s.
During October and November
England will be quite unfortunate and
fear she will experience much trou-
Bile relative to uprisings in India,
which, 1 judge, will last for period
of seven years. Therefore it would be
well for the English government to
be well prepared for war.
England will yet prove to be one
of the most sincere friends to the
United States of all the nations of
Mother Earth"
