THE WORLD WILL END IN 1881.
SUCH IS PREDICTION OF ADyENTISTS.
REDvISI0N OF EUROPE PROPHEsIED.

London, June 7.-Terrible predic-
tions concerning what will happen to
this poor old earth during the next
twenty-five years were made at a
prophetic and Second Advent con-
ference, and while they differed
somewhat in details, they all agreed
that the end of the world is at hand.
They were not quite sure whether the
final catastrophe will come on May
Q or april 9, 1881, but they were
quite sure that one of these dates
will prove to be the right one. There
can be no doub: that the world has
nearly outlived its usefulness, the
prophets declared. The wars and
earthquakes which have afflicted it
recently are proof positive and all
that is required to fulfil the prophe,
sizes is the coming of anti Christ, who
is somewhat unkindly identified with
Napoleon.
The chancelleries of Europe will
no doubt be interested to learn that
an entire readiustment of the politi-
cal divisions Of the western world is
coming between now and 1919. The
twenty-five States into which the
original territory Of the Roman En-
pire is now divided will be recog-
nlzed in ten allied kingdoms, and
then anti. Christ or Napoleon will
arise. He will make his first poli,i-
Cal appearance as King of Syria, but
in 1922 he will attack and conquer
France, and then he will extend his
rule over the rest of the ten king
dums. There will be 100000
Christians in the world at this time,
the prophets declare, but evidently
they will not all be equally deserv-
ing of favor, for in 1924, or in 1926,
$4,000 of them will be translated to
heaven, while the other 9,856,O00
will he transported to desert near
Mt. Sinai, where they will have to
wait three and half years.
1t is distressing to learn that only
a few members of parliament will be
found worthy of immediate transla.
tion. Rev. nj. Baxter declared that
the great majority of the members of
parliament would be left behind. Mr..

APPLE TREES 80 YEARS OLD.
Planted by Indians at Historic
Michigan Spot.

Planted by the Indians eighty years
ago, when the spot was an Indian res
ervation and burying ground. two ap-
pie trees still stand side by side on
the bank of the Shiawassee Hiver near
here.
The trees are now Of mammoth
size, measuring respectively six and
eight feet in circumference, and not
Notwithstanding their age they are still in
healthy condition and bear fruit each
year
Near where they stand Were To-
Gated the first settlements made by
white men in Shiawassee county about
100 years ago. In those early days
the spot was one of the chief trading
points in this locality. Il was locat-
ed on one of the first trails here
abOuts. and being also on the river
bank was accessible by water. In
those days water was used for travel
good deal more than it is now.
So large was the business done by
Indians and fur traders that in 1870
a bank was established here. 1t was
one of the wildcat variety SO common
in those days, and issued great
amount of the wildcat currency.
Tradition has it that while the bank
was doing a f1ourishing business some
of the large holders of its currency
became uneasy about the security for
the redemption of the paper and
planned a raid to loot the bank. The
bank officials, hearing of the plan,
took the banks specie and buried 1t
near the river. There still live in that
vicinity some old-timers who believe
that the money is buried there yet,
and many excavations have been made
in the hope OF uncoyering some Of 1t.
The trend of progress has been
away from this spot. and any one Wis
iting there today will find peaceful
farming community. but if one choos-
es to spend little time cultivating
the acquaintance of the older inhabi-
tants he will find wealth of historic
lore and quaint traditions of pioneer
life which will reward the effort

A COW AND A FAUCET.
Would not Walk All the Way to the
River for a Drink.


River for a Drink.
The Portland (Ore) Poor Farm has.
according to the assertion of the in
mates, the cleverest COW in the State.
The animal is an old red Jersey that
has been on the farm for years. The
matron at the farm last summer dis
covered that the faucet on the hydrant
in the back yard was frequently turn
ed on, but constant watching failed
to disclose the turner-on.
The same trouble occurred again
this summer The matron noticed the
water was turned on about the same
time every afternoon. While she
watched she saw the old red Jersey
come leisurely up the road into the
back yard and walk straight to the
hydrant. The COW pushed the faucet
with her nose, but it did not seem to
work So she tried her horns, and
when that method failed she opened
her mouth, took hold of the faucet
and turned it.
Mrs. Bossy then drank her fill OF
cold water and turned away toward
the green fields, evidently pleased
that she did not have to go quarter
of mile to the river to satisfy her
thirst
The next day the COW seemed much
puzzled to find a new faucet and ap-
peared detected when after half an
hour of hard work she could not get
her drink. Then the matron had a
watering place made, and the cold
water was allowed to run at all times

Most Unkindest Cut.

With reference to the humors OF
society reporting, Melville Stone
tells of the account of a wedding pub
lished in a Kansas paper
The story, which described the mar
rage in the usual flowery adjectives,
concluded with this surprising an
nOuncement:
1.-THE bridegroom's present to the
bride was a handsome diamond
brooch, together with many other
beautiful things in cut glass. "-Har-

WILD HORSES IN A CHASE.
Sport Of the vaqueros in Eastern
Washington.

Sport Of the vaqueros in Eastern
Washington.
Blood will TELL" said a horseman
well known among the reckless va
queros OF eastern Washington, in re-
lating stories of the last great round
up Of wild horses in the far Northwest
State. Blood will tell, and it will
tell even more noticeably in a wild
horse than in one that never has been
outside the corral and that had been
halter-broken before it was weaned.
ANY bunch OF wild horses gives
the riders trouble, but for sheer, un.
adulterated deviltry and meanness,
the youngsters bred from the feet old
Arabian stations are the hardest pro-
position we ever get up against.
And yet, while they are the hardest
to capture, there's zest about the
chase that a true rider never tires of.
1t gets the rider on his nerve, like a
fight with a silver bass, right out Of
cold water, affects a fisherman who
has been fooling with plymouth
blacks in q mill pond.
"One Saturday, about the last Of
April, we were sweeping Saddle Noun
tain for the wild herd. We spread
our men well, arranged to give them
fresh mounts at proper intervals, and
by nightfall we had about nine hum
dred wild horses rounded up. But
even at that herd Of one hundred or
one hundred and fifty of these young
Arabian bloods could not be captured,
ia spite Of our craft and efforts.

matrimony not merely union, but

Eat What You Like

Don't Starve Or Diet. but Use
M1-0-Da, and Cure Your StOm-
ach Troubles.
The average treatment of stomach
troubles consists of a rigid diet list,
which often half starves the patient.
OF course it would be foolish for any
one who knows that some foods are
positively harmful and poisonous to
continue eating them, even while fol-
lowing the Mona treatment, but in
ordinary cases of stomach troubles it
is not necessary to starve or diet if
Mi-o-na is faithfully used, a tablet
before each meal.
This scientific remedy, for the cure
Of stomach troubles, acts upon the
whole digestive system, and strength
n the organs so that they are able
to digest any food that is eaten with
out fear of distress.
F. D. Pierce has SO much confidence
in the power of Mi-o-na to cure stom-
ach troubles and resulting ills, tina
he gives a guarantee with every
fifty cent box to refund the money
unless it cures.
