a prophecy made last December by Lee
Spangler of this city, the mar who pre-
dicted the eruption of Mont Pelee, the
assassination of President Mckinley
the Spanish-American war and the de
feat of Russia by Japan.

fore Christmas that there would be a
disastrous earthquake soon after the

Sage of Cheyenne, chairman of the
committee on ways and means Of the
house, a note asking him to make an
estimate of the amount of a]ppropria-
ton the board would probably need for
the next two years for the conduct of
the office. DR.. Miller replied that so
far the board had been able to meet
its expenses from the receipts of the
office, with a snug balance left, the
board having cost the state not a pen
ny. I'VE collect fees from physicians
seeking to locate in the state" said
the secretary, "and these are covered
into the treasury. Our expense ac.
counts go to the treasurer in the usual
way, to be met from the funds of the
board in the hands of that official, and
l am proud to say that so far not a
cent has gone to the board that the
board had not first handled. The ex-
penses of the board for 1905 were 1898
and for 1906 about 1916. Any other
