given than tho one participated in by
both the members and their wives last
Saturday night in the club rooms.
The largest crowd ever assembled in
the rooms was present. The affair,
complimentary to the ladies, proved
entirely the chief social event of the
winter season. From the beginning to
the end the ladies' committee had the
entertainment in charge and planned

A Halter of kewspapers,

An Austrian army officer who died
a few years ago left the whole of his
fortune to a nephew on the condition
thar he should never glance at a news
paper. The will stated that this neph-
ew, who held a post in government
office, was too fond of reading news
papers--a habit which the testator con-
sidered most pernicious. Three trus-
tees were appointed to keep a watch
over the heir, and in the event of a
single infringement Of the prohibitory
clause the fortune was to be distrib
uted among other members of the fam
lily.

Wha. il such conditions had prov

would worrying over it have done?
It could not have changed the wealth

Meteorological conditions are not in

II simply goes 70 show what lot OF
unnecessary trouble some people do

tendency is seen when other matters

Mother Shipton's Prophecy.


Away back in 1S45 the famous old
Mother Shipton's prophecy made its
appearance It reads as follows.
Carriages without horse shall go.
And accidents FIJI the world with woe
Around the world thoughts shall ay.
In the twinkling Of an eye.
Waters shall! more wonders do.
Now strange. yet shall be true.
The world upsidedown shall be.
And gold be found at root OF tree.
Through hills man shall ride.
And nc horse nor ass be at his side.
Under water men shall walk.
Shall ride. shall sleep. shall talk.
In the air men shall be seen:
In white. In black. in green.
Iron in the water shall float
as easy as wooden boat
Gold shall be found mid stone,
In land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do,
England at last admit Jew:
And this world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.
1t will be noticed that Mother Ship
TON predicted the invention OF the
automobile. the telegraph. the sub
marine boat. flying machines. and
iron boats. none Of which were IN e1-
istence when her prophecy was writ
ten. But she made;a bad miss as to
the world coming to an end. This
however, is one subject that has
fooled a great many prophets and
we will have 20 excuse Mother Shir-
ton.

PREACHER ISSUES STATEMENT
Says the Pope Is the Bitter Foe OF
Freedom.

Rev. B. II. Tipple. pastor OF the
American Methodist church in Rome.
after being received by Mr.. Roose-
welt. issued a statement expressing
the greatest satisfaction that the ex-
President did not have an audience
with the Pope.
While the work Of Methodism in
Rome." says the statement, started
the rumpus. it is no longer Metho-
dism OF any other ism. but the great
principle Of toleration. Mt. Eoose-
welt has struck blow for twentieth
century Christianity"
The representatives OF two great
Republics have been the ones to put
the Vatican where it belongs. P-esi-
dent Loubet refused to accede to
Vatican conditions. and low Mr..
Fairbanks and Mt Roosevelt come to
maintain the same dignity and inde-
pendance Of American manhood IN
the face Of Vatican tyranny.
The Vatican is incompatible with
Republican principles. This IS bit
ter dose for patriotic Catholics IN
America to swallow. I wonder how
many doses OF this sort they will
take before they revolt? is Catholic
Ism in America to be American or
Romish. II Romish. then every pa
triotic American should rise to crush
1t, for Roman Catholicism Is the un-
compromising foe Of freedom.
After the Fairbanks episode the
Methodists never dreamed that the
Vatican would commit similar blum
der with Mr.. Roosevelt. That It has
done. 80 Is added proof that the pol
icy prevailing there is the same yes
tecday. today and forever. The Vat
icau IS the Vatican. The world ad-
vances. but the Vatican never.
Americans can now better under
stand how it is that the Roman
Church has lost France and is losing
Spain and Austria. 2
