tions
The rise OF prophet Is prognosti'
Gated The seers predict that a man
of supreme powers will be recognized
by the world Some declare that he
will be great teacher--a new Mes
siah-and others interpret the promise
OF the stars as merely the heralding OF
a poet or philosopher.
A omen Of disaster to New York city
is frequently recognized by astrologers
who differ in their Interpretation OF
the sign. One sbelief is that a tidal
wave will submerge a greater part Of
the city when II shall have become
the refuge OF the nations of Europe
This date is read as 1915,
A return to modesty and reticence
is foretold. Uranus, which the seers
think has caused many eccentric ac-
tions and customs, will cease TO be
powerful and women will return to
older standards OF life, It is predicted
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of an anxious year Loss
of money is probable The health
should be safeguarded Girls may be
courted but disappointments are indi-
Gated.
Children born on this day are likely
to demand much Of life. They may be
extravagant and careless in financial
affairs. Their sign is scorpio and
their principal ruling planet Mars.

Keeping Fish.

The very best way to keep fish in
camp Cor anywhere without ice) is to
scale, clean and behead them then
string them by a cord through their
tails and hang them, downward, in a
dry, breezy, shady place. No fish
should be eaten that have been lying
in the sun or that have begun to
soften. 1t is in neglected fish that
ptomaine poison forms.
Do not put FISH on a string to keep
in water until you start home, 1t is
slow and painful death to them. If
you have neither live-box nor net with
you, kill and bleed every fish as soon
as caught. The flesh will be much
firmer and far more palatable, Fish
and meat should be hung high in the
open, for it is curious fact that blow
flies work close to the ground and sell
dom bother food hung over ten feet
from the ground, while it is claimed
that game or fish suspended at a
height of 20 feet will be immune from
blow-fiies

HOROSCOPE
THE stars incline, but onot compel"
THURSDAY NOVEMBER s, 1914.

Jupiter is in benenc aspect today,
while Venus is strongly adverse.
Astrologers read this as day In
which II is wise TO push all business
enterprises. Speculation Is under a
most auspicious rule. Great fortunes
are foreshadowed for those who are
wise In investment
There is a sign held to be particu'
larly favorable for all persons OF He
brew descent. 1t IS foretold that
they will attain extraordinary power
In certain countries OF Europe, Honor
and fame are predicted for a man OF
extraordinary constructive and e1'
ecutive ability.
Among those who should profit by
today's conhguration are cardinals.
bishops, priests and other clergymen
concerned with large responsibilities
The death of a high iignitary is In
dicated by the stars. '
Under this aspect clothiers and
those who deal in woolen goods should
profit There will be great gain for
all who manufacture black materials,
but there is an omen read as presag
ing a great demand for brilliant colors
as a relief from mourning.
This is an unfavorable government
for women. they will meet many diff
hculties In business and social life
in the coming six months. They will
achieve important service to human
ity, however, and gain places in new
fields OF endeavor.
>Theaters and places of amusement
may have discouraging conditions for
some time, the seers say, but they
have the promise of large returns be-
fore the end of the season, which will
be memorable for a number of ex-
traordinary plays.
Warning is given against the dan
ger Of pestilence in this country.
Smallpox and other contagious dis
eases are prognosticated. Children
should be guarded with the utmost
care.
Dramatists and writers of fiction are
forewarned OF a period Of depression
and encouragement, but they have
the prognosticatIcN of better condl-
tions within year.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is have
the augury Of a fairly prosperous
year, but disappointment in loye or in
domestic affairs is probable. Travel
and change that will bring good luck
are ligkely.
Children born on this day may be
decidedly fortunate in life. An in.
clinstion to be careless in dress may
be characteristic. Love OF company
and amusement are often traits OF
these subjects of Scorpio.

Mixture Of coiors and It's Capacity

tiles That Have Brought u
Into Prominence.

The gift TO Sir Thomas Upton OF a
model IN serpentine stonesof his new
racing yacht has revived interest IN
this beautiful stone, which some years
ago was much In vogue.
Serpentine Is often found In con-
junction with asbestos Canada pro

ly used for insulating purposes and
also for weaving into fireproof cloth
In the province OF Quebec are to be
found the largest asbestos mines III
Canada. The production is large, and
II Is interesting to note that whereas
in 1909 the exports Of crude asbestos
were valued at $1,75S,O57, in 1913
the figures had increased TO $24S6
769
And in the same province are also
to be found some of the worlds most
beautiful deposits of serpentine.
It was in 1916 that Queen Victoria
and the Prince Consort, when on a
visit to Cornwall, England, were shown
specimens of serpentine, which they
admired so much that several large
pedestals made of this stone we're
ordered for Osborne house.
The patronage thus secured brought
serpentine into considerable fashion,
and among others who at that time
favored il we're the d 70 Of Westmin-
ster, who ordered a pair of Luxon
obelisks IA feet in height; the Hon
Pemberton Lee, who bought the iirst
and finest chimney-piece ever made
in this material; and the then duke OF
Devonshire. who had several large
pedestals and piiasters, unequaled for
beauty and color, made for his sculp-
ture gallery at Chatsworth.
During the rather short-lived boom
in serpentine which followed a man
ufactory on a large scale of a great
variety OF household and domestic or
naments, etc, was started at Pen
zance, which afterwards passed into
the hands of a London company. Ser
pentine was exhibited at the exhibit
tions of 1851 and 1862, and was
awarded medals on both occasions.
Serpentine, it may be mentioned,
gets its name from the variety of the
colors which il presents. These colors
are of the most beautiful and varie-
gated description imaginable, black and
green, perhaps, predominating, with
frequent mixture of diallage; but the
choicest sorts are generally considered
to be those which show the greatest
number Of tlnts, and chromatic com
binations are as various and many as
the figures in a kaleidoscope
Some when cut and polished shine
with a metallic green luster on a red
dish base. Taen there is a rich jet
black, a purple, a brown, red, Grim
son, and bronze, and a cream-colored,
striped. dappicd, or variously inter
mixed and blended with one or other
tints. 1t well deserves the name Of
rainbow stone.
Several of the finest bank and other
buildings in Canada are beautifed by
columns, pillars, panels, or fioorings
of this beautiful and vari-colored
stone, which takes a perfectly exquis-
lite polish.

recent military argument:
''These assailants Of the Russian
campaign are ignorant, Their argu-
ments show a military ignorance as

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1914.

This is not lucky day, according
to the reading of astrology. Saturn is
In a place strongly adverse, while
Jupiter, the Sun and Mercury are all
unfriendly. Neptune is mildly benefic
and late in the day Venus exercises
kindly influence.
The rule today augurs disappoint-
ment and encouragement. Those who

BIG VICTORY
Gen. MercadO Surrenders to
U. S. Army Officers.
SEVERE BLOW DEALT HUERTA
The FederaIs Forced To Yield Because
OF Lack OF Ammunltion-Mos
Of FederaIs on the
American Side.

Presidio, Texas.-The Mexican fed.
eral army, with its nine generals,
evacuated ojinaga, Mexico, after six
hours of fighting. The triumphant
rebel forces under General Francisco
Villa Immediately occupied the town.
General Salvador Mercado, who was
Huerta's chief military commander,
crossed the river and surrendered to
Major McNamee, of the United States
Army.
It was impossible for Major Nc
Nance to learn what had become Of
the federaIs, whether the bulk of them
had taken refuge on this side or
whether they scattered to points in
Mexico. The country about Ojinaga is
mostly desert with little to sustain.
Later General Mercado sent over
seven wagon loads Of government
documents under the escort of a
wounded lieutenant, who also brought
his personal effects.
The wagons were pulled out of the
river and taken into the limited States
Army camp.
The defeat of the federal army fol-
lowed only few hours fighting in
which the rebels, beginning at sun
down, started to close in on the be-
sieged garrison with cannon and rifle
fire.
General Castro and General Mer-
cado of the federal regulars saw that
the assault was to be nothing less than
a massacre. The federals had left only
so rounds of ammunition for each man.
Generals Castro and Mercado there
fore gave the order to evacuate.
All the federal soldiers and their Off
GERS who could scramble to the Ameri-
can side did so. The others ran in all
rections. Gen. Pascual Orozco, COM
mander of federal volunteers, threat
ened with summary execution by Villa,
was the first to cross. It was believed
he had escaped into the mountains Of
Texas.
Major McNamee, commanding the
United States patrol, Immediately
called out all the cavalrymen to meet
an emergency. Women, children and
wounded soldiers had been crossing in
numbers, but the apparent advance OF
the rebels turned to the very heart Of
the federal garrison. gave reason to
believe a greater rush across the bor-
der was imminent.
