Tuesday, January 18, 1917.

Tuesday, January Is. 1Y1T.
Astrologers read this as an unusually
unfortunate day, since the Sun, Jupiter,
Saturn, Uranus. and Mercury are all in
evil place.
Warning is given that the rule is ex-
ceedingly threatening for whatever con-
Germs banking, speculation and COM
merce. There is sign, interpreted
many weeks ago, that insistently fore
shadows financial depression and even
panicky conditions
The sign Is most malevolent in all that
pertains to speculation, and brokers, in
vestors in stocks and managers of big
business should be exceedingly cautious.
The planetary sway that Is so unfavor-
able to the business interests Of the coun-
try is also held to have a peculiar inf1u-
ence over legislators. Washington, d. c.,
comes under a sway making for uncer-
tainty, contention and delay in matters
Of vital Importance.
Under this configuration they that seek
employment or favors from persons who
WELD power will be disappointed.
Newspapers and periodicals of every
sort have a direction that indicates sem
sational chroniciling of current events.
This is not good time for writers who
treat economic or political topics. as the
stars may encourage misapprehension and
prejudice.
On this day the aged should be circum-
spect in all things, especially in the use
OF their physical strength.
New acquaintances have a malefic
guidance, especially Chen men and
women meet. Love affairs are likely
to be unhappy, If begun today.
Again it is announced that peace is
likely to be attained in the summer
OF 1917. but much bloodshed and suf-
fering will Intervene. Astrologers de-
clare that 1918 is year of terrible
possibilities, is the war does not end
within the next twelve months.

Tale OF Trieste.

The Italians are fighting to get back
Trieste. How some of the inhabitants
Of that city feel toward thoir Austrian
masters is shown by the following
story:
A traveller went into a church there
and noticed among a large number Of
votive offerings a silver mouse. This,
he was told, was presented by a lady
whose house had been ovcrrun with
these little pests. After her gift to the
Madonna the mice entirely disappeared
from her place.
You don't believe that yarn?" re
marked the skeptical traveller.
"Of course not" replied the sacris-
tan. cor we should have made "A silver
Austrian long ago."-Boston Tran

REMAINS AT LOCAL HOTEL

Thru the magnanimity of Peoria.
i'll, local music lovers are not to be
disappointed in a Galli-Curci concert
and the great 'coloratura soprano will
sing IN Tulsa Wednesday night.
The diva came to this city for her
concert last Thursday night, but
caught severe cold and was unable
to leave her apartments in Hotel
Tulsa. Until few hours before the
concert ii was hoped that her condi-
tion would improve sufficiently to
permit her to fill the engagement.
This was found to be impossible and
hundreds of persons who had bought
seats for the concert were disap-
pointed.
To Remain i'm Tulsa

than Madame G.illicCurci herself
Thursday night in an interview she
said:
you have been so lovely to me
here. | feel that | must sing in
Tulsa
Friday and Saturday there was no
change in the singers condition. She
was scheduled to sing in Oklahoma
City on those nights, but the dates
were Cancelled.
The attending physician last night
recommended that the singer remain
in Tulsa until she has fully recov-
cred, altho she was considerably i'm
proved. Galli-Curci has an engage
ment at McAlester for tomorrow
night, but it is probable that this date
also will be Cancelled in order that
she may have three additional days of
rest for the concert in this city
