The Many Amazing Predictions of "The

of Incredible Disaster TO the United State

Rome June 26.
k,n-HE HOLY NUN OF vITERBo," Sister Maria

for her success in predicting coming events.
Her power usually exercised with the object Of

One Of the most remarkable predictions made
by the nun related to America and uttered on her

The King always paid respectful heed to the warn
ings, and although he never ran away from danger,
H. is stated that being his guard enabled him 10
make the slight movement needed to put him beyond
danger many desperate occasions.

plot was being formed against him. but the stout,
joval monarch replied:
Thanks, very much; but can take care OF myself
The King who killed With his son on February

mother who was sister oil the late King Humberr
was deeply impressed by the nuns message, but failed
to produce any effect on her son.

though the Grand Duke
was the most hated of all
the Russian rulers, he
went unharmed for many
months.
On February 4, 1905. the
nun said:
"Tell the Russian Grand
Duchess that her husband
is In great peril to-day"
The warning came too
late, for on that day the
Grand Duke Sergius, who
treated his wife with great
harshness, went out with
out her, in spite of her
warnings, and was blown
to shreds by Nihilist
bombs.

King Alfonso of Spain tell

against assassins and rev.

day before his wedding,
and this Is said to have
enabled him to escape the
murderous attack which
killed so many Of his suite
and subjects on that day.

TO AID ARMY PR1vATEs.
Suggestion Is Made That West
Pointers Give Physical Training.

With view to raising the general
physical standard Of privates in the
army. Capt. Fl. j. koehier, instructor
of physical training at the Military
Academy, has suggested to the War
Department. that the graduates of the
academy be required = to impart to the
men under their command the train
ing they themselves haze received
At the academy the cadets are
brought to Il high degree of Skill in
gymnastics. fencing foil, saber,- bay
onet and swimming exercises, as well
AS in boxing and wrestling 1t is be-
lieved that the system which has
worked so well at the academy could
be altered to meet the conditions ex-
listing at army posts and applied to
the enlisted men under the ,tutelage OF
the younger officers.
Col. Townsley. the superintendent of
the academy. commenting upon the
suggestion, says that while the men at
present take enough exercise in the
course of their drills to insure Health.
they fail to acquire that all-around de-
velopment physically that results from
the regularly planned exercises. The
man who is in perfect physical condi-
ton and we'll developed athlete,
conscious of his own endurance, can
not fail to be a valuable soldier in
action, it is said.

MRS. PANKHURST MAY
SPEAK IN WASHINGTON
November Fl Date Set for
English ''Mi|itant's"
Appearance.

HANRE, France October 11.-Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhurst, the militant suf
fragette leader, sailed from here today
for New York on board the Provence.
If Mrs. Pankhurst. who is ell route to
this country, should attempt to land
under assumed name. she would en-
counter serious obstacles. Yesterday the
report reached the bureau of immigration
that Mrs. Pankhurst might adopt an alias
in order to enter the United States. In
quiries concerning the report became so
persistent that Commissioner General
Caminett issued a statement in which
he said:
I'VE have no authentic information on
the subject. and without reference to
Mrs. Pankhurst will further state that
this bureau and the Department deal with
people who seek admission at our ports
in frank and open manner, and with
out deception, and prefer like treatment
from those who wish to enter
Overlook Some Gases.
I'VE are confronted with much perjury
and deception in efforts to gain admission
into the United States. Generally speak
ing, and when not too rank, our officers
are often disposed to overlook such in
stances. when it occurs with people who
lack experience and make showing of
having been misled. / am not saying
what may happen when it is deliberate
and practiced by people who ought to,
and do, know better. In these matters
before the bureau, as in everyday life,
good faith has its benefits and never fails
to command respect and due consider
alton.
| November u has been set as the
date on which Mrs. Pankhurst,
is 10 speak in Washington, providing
she succeeds in getting into the Unit
ed States. Local suffragists who are
interested in her arrival here have not
yet heard where she will speak.
Local suffragists would not comment
today on the action Of DR.. Anna How
ard Shaw, president of the National
American Woman Suffrage Associa tion
in canceling her engagement to speak
at Pankhurst meeting in New York.
DR.. Shaw took this action because the
people in charge of Mrs. Pankhurst's
tour would not guarantee Dr. Shaw a
part of the receipts for use in forward
Ing the American campaign.
Committee Working Hard.
Mrs. Helen Gardner of Washington
went to New York yesterday to attend a
meeting of the program committee of the
National American Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION. which is to complete the plans
for the associations convention here, be-
ginning December l.
The report of the congressional commit
tee Of the association, which has its head
quarters here, is to be made December

Paul is to tell of the committees efforts
to get consideration by Congress of the
pending constitutional amendment giving
nationwide votes for women.
Miss Eliza Hardy Lord dean of North

this week to assist in the suffrage work.
She is to so into Maryland to make

GIVES PRINTING LESSONS
International Typographical
Union Foun4s Correspond
ence Sch0v, of instruction.

a unique method of educating it's men,
bers to become more skillful in their
work has been adopted by the Interna-
founded a correspondence course of in
struction in printing. The course, known
as the 81. T. u course, is under the
direction of commission founded as a
result of a demand made at the 1907
convention of the union.
Working on the theory that printing,
like all arts into which design enters, is
subject to the rules of the principles Of
design, the union has adopted a system
of teaching printers the principles under
lying Typography and showing them how
to apply the principles TO everyday work.
More than 1890 students have already
been enrolled in the course, and members
of the union have come to the conclusion
that it is proving great success. To
overcome the fact that some printers
are ignorant of the principles of punctua-
ton, capitalization and other forms of
English grammar. a rudimentary course
in English had been added to the other
subjects taught
Many of the members of the union, by
taking the course, have been able to ma
terially better their positions and earn
higher pay in a much shorter time than
they would ordinarily be able to win pro-
motion of any kind. For this reason the
union is taking active steps to have as
many Of its younger members as possible
take up the course, in order that the
printing trade as whole may be i'm
proved.
A full description of the course has
been printed in an attractive booklet
called "a Turn in the Road from No
where" and is being sent out to print
ers and newspapers throughout the
country.

Life Sentence COMMITTED.
FAVORS SEVERE QUIZZES.
Col. Townsley, Head Of West Point,
Upholds Entrance Examinations.

Strong opposition to abatement Of the
severity of examinations at the Military
Academy-is voiced by the superintendent,
Col. Townsley, in his annual report just
made public. He points out that there
has been a steady increase in the pro-
portion of applicants appearing for exami-
nation who pass. and also of the num-
Der Of cadets who pass, and also of the
number of cadets who graduate from the
academy. as compared with the number
of entrants.
To insure full utilization of the educa-
tional advantages Of the academy the SUI
perintendent suggests q radical change in
the method Of appointing cadets through
senators and representatives. He would
throw these desirable places open to the
youth of the nation as the result of COM
petitive examinations to be conducted by
boards in the various sections of the
country, and successful candidates would
thus be relieved from the necessity of
passing entrance examinations to the
academy.
Col. Townsley asserts that only IA per
cent OF the officers of the army are West
Pointers. This, he believes, could be COR
rected il the academy We're filled to its
capacity for a few years.

or kneeling men and women and chill
dren, white and brown and black, in
khaki and blue calico and rainbow ker-
chiefs, are slowly working across the
level beds of reddening vines, each picker
guided by the taut white strings that
mark his row. In front, the vines lie
smooth and matted, heavy with the half
hidden berries: behind. they are ruffied
and tossed up. clean despoiled of their
fruit. The chatter and the chatting run
high, for the picking is unusually good
the measures fill fast, and at shutdown
the tallies call for fat pay-even five and
six dollars for the faster workers. And
the owners are in high spirits too: the
