terrible influences that generate holo-
causts are at work in the skies above
America and l cannot see the end.
From 1910 America should have
taken precautions, putting herself on
the defensive until 1918. For she is
in the grip of terrestrial evolution and
each of these years the enemies
fire, wind and water will assail her.
"a large portion of her territory
will slip into the seafwithin the next
few generations and l foresee that
that event will be much more terrible
than the present.
September will be the most dan
gerous month for Americans. Every
one of them ought to be ready to flee
from floods, fire or cyclone any
month. Most of the horrors in that
month will develop from winds.
81 truly wish could be mistaken
and that my vision might be wrong.
But know my hope is vain.
81 have told what have seen in the
past regarding America and it has
come true. You must feel that what
see for the future will likewise prove
true.
These catastrophes are the will of
God. His destiny is at work and you
in America are helpless. You can only
safeguard yourselves and wait and
endure,

Cleveland, O., March 29.-The
Cleveland Press today prints an in
terview with Nine. de Thebes, the IA
nous French seeress, in which she
predicts greater catastrophies than
the Ohio-Indiana floods and the
Omaha cyclone for America before
the year is out. :
Three months, ago, Nine. de
Thebes prophesied that wind, water
and fire would assail the United
States in March and plunge the whole
nation into mourning.
The Paris correspondent of the
Cleveland Press found the seeress in
a little country village north of Paris.
81 have been hiding" she said, 'be-
cause l did not want to be interview

America is just at the beginning
of the awful catastrophes which Ma

themselves against further cyclones

disasters that have devastated Ohio,

''They would not take heed. They

EAR AND NOSE SIGNS.

CINCINNATI Quite d stir was caused among 1900 teachers at tho session pf the Cincinnati Institut, when pr. Arthur Holmes of the Tni- vcrsity of Pennsylvania. declared that large. naring ears are one of the in- diCations of mental deficiency and that great many teachers are mem tally defective. The teachers nervous ly and furtivciy examined each others ears. Persons with aquiline noses arc rarely deficient. he claims.
 He said that the hand is more sig nincent than the head in determining the development of an individual. Per. sons with long slender hands of a smooth texture are most likely to lack energy and to be deficient mentally he says. Then he adds:

ALASkA'S AGRICULTURAL
 WEALTH.

The recent report of the Alaska az ricultural experiment station indicates that the government Is taking up necessary and valuable work. which will rebound to the ultimate benefit not only of the territory. but of the entire Pacitic coast.
 It is stated that the question regard iug potatoes has narrowed down to the matter of whether the home grown product or that from outside IS most fashionable. The same is true to d certain extent with cabbage. ae- eerdiue to tbc cNpcrimenters.
 Tests with small fruits and with apples are declared to have been most encouraging. while il also has been found that there are many ber- rics that promise to do well in the territory.
 No less important were the nhser- vations concerning the raising of sheep and the discovery that these | animals thrive iu the North m a manner to make the handling of them successful.
 Great US IS the mineral wealth of the country. in the last analysis the solid upbuildine of the territory de bends upon Its agricultural possibili- ties. II it is to prosper il must be able to raise it's own food supplies.
 It is inevitable that with the ar rival on this coast of the immigrants certain to come with the opening of the Panama canal. the question of AL aska's settlement will become a greater question than at this particu- lar time.
 There is little reason to doubt that emigrants from the northern countries of Europe. accustomed to climatic conditions analogous to those in AL aska. will find slight difficulty in founding homes there. particularly fl given reasonable government assist | ance in the selection of desirable and profitable crops.
 I The solid upbuilding of the terri tory will come with the development of it's lands. They will produce wealth and this wealth will flow through Sc attle. for the purchase of manufactur- ed products which the citizens of the North will find necessary.-Sc Seattle | Times

At one time judges were accused II being severe according as the offence was small. Many a time have we heard Of that horrible six months given for stealing a loaf of bread while the malefactor of great wealth got off by spending a little money.
 Those days evidently have passed away.
 old Nomeites will remember a city assessor here who got five years for beating the city out of something like 5000. If he had entered a conspiracy to blow up buildings and. perhaps. in nocent people hc might have got off with a much lighter sentence.
 Some of the men were guilty of murder" said Judge Anderson. but Judge Anderson was merciful to them aye. far more merciful than they were to the families whose relatives were brought home in bloody and torn pieces.
 eLt us get away from this cowardly twaddle that the union workmen find this thing necessary. IL is not the member of the union. but the un- speakable assassins who use the unions and their funds for murder.
 Let no one say that unions are guilty Labor unionism is one of the instruments for the advancement of mankind. The dynamite assassins would debauch unions not elevate them and they and their supporters should be treated like the beasts that they are.

MAYOR FISHER
ENDS FIRST YEAR.

One, year ago this week Mayor
Thomas A. Fisher took up his duties
as mayor of Alexandria aud SO busy
has he been with the affairs of the
city that he has not had time to cal
attention to the fact, in fact it is
noubtful if he would remember il
unless it was called to his attention
in this way:
He assumed Office a fledgling in
public life,without previous experience
in municipal affairs except in so far
as he was familiar with city bust
ness through the Board of Police
Commissioners, of which he had been
secretary for some years!
City Hall wise men, and chronl-
clers of the press who look with APP
praising eye on the clty's servants
and their successors agree that
Mayor Fisher has put in good
years work. Twelve months is a
short time in which to leave ones I'M
press on the sands of tine. His in
fluencc is traceable in much of the
progress of the past year, and nc
has brought harmony between de-
partments which might otherwise
have enjoyed only an unstable en-
tente cordiale.
There have been d number OF lea
lures of his first year that have APP
pealed to the people generally. First
and above all is the fact that he has
kept regular Office hours III the City
Hall where he could always be found
BY those who wished to conduct
business with the city's head.
The first year of the Mayors adj
.ministration has been pleasant one
Outside of one or two small differ
ences with City Council caused by his
veto of measures which had not been
properly passed, and in which he
was promptly sustained there has
been nothing unpleasant to mar the
serenity of his. Honor.
The Gazette extends to the Mayor
it's compliments OH the termination
of his first years work and hopes
that the succeeding years of hlS
administration may be equally pleas
ant.

disaster was the fact that the engl-
neer and flagman, at whose doors
the calamity is placed, were almost
tagged out from excessive work
that they were physically incapaci
tated for the responsibility placed
upon them-they were forced to keep
going at time when they had almost
reached their ne plus ultra. The en-
gineer begged to be excused from TAX
ing charge of the locomotive attach
ed to the ill-fated train, as he needed
rest. But, like the Wandering Jew,
he was kept going and the terriblt.
disaster followed.
Conditions were decidedly against
these subordinates when their supe-
riors refused to listen to their ap-
peals. There was fog, and danger
signals were passed by those who
were endeavoring to keep awake.
Men employed by corporations Of
ten become automatic. 1ney nave Dut
little time for recreation, and their
minds are necessarily absorbed by
their calling. They dream of trains,
semaphores, dinner pals, etc, and
when endeavoring to indulge in ex-
hausted natures sweet rcstorer
should they hear a knock at the door
they involuntarily start to get into
their clothes, supposing it is the call
man.
There are many e1eemoSenary
in this world, some for
instance for the betterment Of Jail
There is ample room for
a movement for overworked men
who, like the machinery they operate,
will eventually wear out.
