PROPHECY WRITTEN
In 1900 COMES TO
NOTICE IN WARTIME

(Aberdeon Free Press, Nov. 3, l9l4.)
A part Of an extraordinary Latin
prophecy made by Brother johannes
in the year 1900 is quoted in a recent
issue of the Figaro. In deeiphering
the allegory, IL must be remembered
that France is represented by a cock,
England by a leopard, Russia by a
white eagle, Germany by.a black eagle,
and Austria by the "other eagle, -
while the lamb stands for justice, mer-
ey and truth.
Towards the year 2000, the Anti
christ will manifest himself. His ar
my will surpass in numbers all that
can be imagined There win be Chris
tiens among the legions and there will
be Mohammedans and savage soldiers
among the defenders of the Lamb.
''For the first time the Lamb will be
all red. There will not be single spot
in the Christian world that VIII not be
red, and red will be the heavens, the
earth, the waters and even the air,
for blood will flow in the domains of
the four elements at once.
"The Black Eagle will throw him
self on the Cock, who will lose many
feathers, but will strike back hero
icaliy with his spurs. He soon would
be crushed were it not for the help of
the Leopard and his claws.
"The Black Eagle win come from
the country of Luther, will surprise
the Cock from another side, and will
invade the country of the Cock up to
the middle of it.
"The White Eagle, coming from the
north, will surprise the Black Eagle
spirit, and of the purging of humanity,
the country of the Antichrist from one
end to another
1.-THE Black Eagle will see himself
forced to liberate the Cock in order to
fight the White Eagle, and the Cock
will pursue the Black Eagle into the
country of the Antichrist to help the
White Eagle. :.
"The battles fought up to then will
be as nothing compared to those which
will take place in the country of Lu-
tber. for the seven angels will -togeth-
or pour in the fire of their censers on
the impious earth which signifies that
the Lamb will order the determination
of the ract of Antichrist.
"When the Beast sees that he is lost,
he will become furious, and for many
months the beak of the White Eagle,
the claws of the Leopard and the
spurs Of the Cock will furiously strike
at him. alas
"They will cross over the bodies of
the slain, and these, in places, will
change the course Of the waters. They
will bury only the men of noble fam.
lilies, the leading commandants, and
the princes, because to the carnage
made by the armies will be joined the
wholesale death of those who will die
of hunger or of the pest.
tThe Anticrist will ask many times
for peace, but the seven angels who
walk in front of the three animals de
Tending the lamb have declared that
victory will only be granted on the
condition that the Antichrist be crush
ed like straw on the barn floor.
"The executors of the justice of the
Lamb cannot stop fighting as long as
the Antichrist possesses soldiers to
fight against them.
"That which makes the decree of
the Lamb so impacable is that the
Antichrist has pretended to be a fol
lower of Christ, and to act in His
name, and if he does not perish the
fruit of the Redeemer would be lost,
and the doors of, Hades would prevail
against the Savior.
"The fight which will take place
where the Antichrist forges his arms
will not in any way be human fight.
(This may have reference to Essen,
whore the Krupp works are, and many
authorities believe that the decisive
battle may take place in Westphalia.)
"The three animals defending the
Lamb will exterminate the last army
of the Antichrist, but they will be for
as large as city, for the bodies of
the dead will change the aspect of the
countryside, as there will be mounds
of the slain.
HThe Antichrist will lose his crown,
and will die in solitude and madness.
His empire will be divided into %
states, but none of them will any lon
ger possess fortresses, armies or YES
sells. (Curiously enough, this number
comedies with the number of German
states.)
"The White Eagle, by the order of
st. Michael will drive the Crescent
from Europe, and will install himself
at Constantinople
"Then will begin an era of peace and
prosperity for the earth, and there
will be no more wars, each nation being
governed according to its desires, and
living according to the rules of justice.
"There will no longer be Lutherans
or Schismatics. The Lamb will reign,
and the supreme happiness of human
ity will begin.
