A MAD KAISER.
Remarkable Prophecy Made by Late
j. p. Caldwell.

Here is prophecy Of this war,
copied from an editorial by the late
Mr.. J. p. Caldwell Of the Charlotte
Observer. written about Is years ago
near the time of the death of Bis
marck.
''The Passing of the Old Pharoahs''.
THE strenuous denials by his ply
sicians that Bismarck is not nearing
his end are merely confirmatory evil
dence that he is. An official denial of
this sort is always suspicious. Amid
the tramp and tread of great armies.
