PROPHECY THAT hits THE MARK.


three hundred years ago and printed in a
seventeenth century book now in the possession
lof Don Sante Monte, a priest of Como, Italy,
president of an Italian historical society If
lit is correctly quoted it fixed the date of some
important events of the war and declared that
Italy was to play great and splendid part in
bringing it to an end. How improbable this
seemed a few months ago when Venice was i'm
ipe1iled and the shattered Italian armies seemed
on the verge of collapse. Yet the second of the
two great Teutonic empires was beaten to her
knees by Italy and surrendered on Italian
lterIns.
One of the few other predictions unquestion-
lably authentic as far as its date is concerned,
for it is known to have been written many de-
Icades ago, is of German origin and was quoted
in various publications earlier in the war 1t
lforetold considerable that has come true and
predicted that Germany would fight till her
armies were defeated and that thereafter dis
ease and internal Overwhelmingly, bolshe-
Ivism, thought that word was not employed
would reduce the nation to pitiful state.
What truth if any there is in this may soon
appear. Generally speaking this class of litera-
ture is to be distrusted; but blanket condeni-
nation of all of it as fraudulent and valueless
would be unwarranted. Some things apparent
ly foreseen, we know not how, do occur as fore
told, and are interesting if only shots across
the years which chance to hit the mark.
What delightful Alice-in- w Wonderland that
was that Germony had for selling arms and
ammunition to both America and Japan, which
two powers were to be brought to warfare by
German diplomacy. And then when America
and Japan were near to extinction Germany
was to come to the aid of one side, assumably
the japanese, and to complete the job, after
which the benevolent assimilation of the victor
was to be an easy matter Alas and alack for
the plans of mice AMI men! And exc alas and
aIacki for we shall never know now just which
one of the six lusty sons was slated for the en-
perorship of the United States.

Efficiency Of Hospital
Heads Earns Much Praise
By Special Correspondent.

TOTTENVILLE, July 26-Congrat-
ulations are extended to the Staten
Island Hospital and to its president
and to the board of trustees who are
giving such care and attention to the
affairs of that splendid institution.
1t is no easy task to make old build
ings comply with modern require
ments, especially as these require
ments become increasingly exacting.
When the old 8. r. Smith Infirmary
was built, 1t was not imagined that its
ultimate task would be so greatly IN
excess of the requirements then ex-
listing. There were sentiments and as
sociations connected with that struc-
ture. and in view of present needs and
the sums Of money necessarily ex-
pended to meet them. IT might havs
been cheaper in the light of presses
information had the original buildings
been torn down and new ones con
structed. But the increased require
ments have been gradual and the cd
ditions to the old building have been
made from time to time to meet these
increased demands.
The standards of Inspection by the
State Board of Charities are quite dif-
ferent now from what they were In
the immediate past, and 1t Is because
of the fact that the report OF the
State Board Of Charities, dated July
8, rates the Staten Island Hospital as
Glass l." both as to plapRt and admin
istration, that congratulations are now
extended. This report should not only
stitution but a grreat comfort to our
citizens who havS to avail of the serv-
Ices which this Institution so .eflcient-
