Col. Breckinridge's Statement.
Tribute to Admiral Fiske.

admiral Bradley A. Fiske was the
leading champion of preparedness
among the personnel of the Navy.
Fearlessly he enunciated the truth
of naval needs and proper naval pol
icy. He was bounded into humiliation
and impotence by Josephus Daniels.
If to have upheld his hands and to
have aided in interpreting to our
people his message of the Navy's
need, when Josephus Daniels was
trying to destroy him, as he now tries
to destroy the Navy League, is an
offense. then the Navy League should
be damned.
"Mr Daniels is reported to have
said that the Navy needs no wet
nurse. If the knitting of 100000 gar
ments by the loving hands of 100000
American women and the distribution
Of these garments by the Navy
League to the sailors of the Ameri-
can feet and the soldiers of the
American Army in Russia constitute
an offense-then the Navy League
justly may be called a wet nurse and
should be damned

After reading of so many people in our town who have been cured by Deans Kidney Pills. the question naturally arises: "Ts this medicine equally successful in our Aeighboring tOwns?" The generous statement of this Washington resident leaves no room for doubt on this point.

 It will be gigantic explosion of flaming gases, leaping hundreds of thousands of miles out into space. It will have q crater large enough to engulf the earth much as Vesuvius might engulf a football.
 Such a sunspot will be rich enough in electro magnetic energy to fling the atmosphere of our planet into disturbance without precedent ar parallel.
 There will he hurricanes, lightning colossal rains.
 It will be weeks before the earth will regain its normal weather con ditions.
 There will also be gigantic lava lerruptions. great earthquakes. to say nothing of floods and fearful cold. make this startling prophecy with
  alarming It is merely because my study of the planets has revealed certain results with mathematical certainty. that now say to you: Be warned in advance. Tremen-
 dous things are going to happen
 from December IT to December 20, 1919. and afterwards.
 Here are the simple. yet astounding facts that enable me to make this prophecy:
 The planets in their orbits swing in great ellipscs about the sun. They
 are linked to the sun. and to each
 other. by chains of electro magnetic
 energy whose compelling forces eoun-
 teract each other and hold each planet
 in its regular path.
 Whenever two planets wheel into
 such positions that they pull together
 on the sun-either in conjunction
 on the same side of the sun. or in l
 them-their united pull causes the lsun's gases to "explode"-to leap out 'intv space in the whirling volcano W. call sunspot. 1 These sunspots in turn cause storms in the atmosphere of our earth doubtless on other planets as well. | .lr.,
 cause a small sunspot and small
 storm. Three cause large one
 four make a very great storm indeed But-on December r. l9l9. no less than seven planets will pull jointly on the sun. These will include all the ] mightiest planets. those with the mos powerful pull.
 SIX of them-Mercury. Mars, Venus. Jupiter, saturn and Neptune--will be in conjunction: grouped together in
 the greatest League of Planets" ever known in the annals of astronomy. They will be massed in the narrow limit of but 26 degrees, on the same side of the sun.
 Directly opposite. coming into op- position with this gigantic league. will be the huge planet Uranus. The magnetic currents between Uranus
 and the six planets will pierce the Sun like q mighty spear. Our earth is outside the league at an angle of nearly 90 degrees-in per- feet position to receive almost the disturbance as it leaps into activity on what, to us. will be the eastern
 horizon of the suns disk. This means we shall get the full strength of the storm when the sum

ploding gases have had time to die down.
 Such close grouping of planets has never been recorded before. The whole solar system will be strangely out of balance. What will be the outcome My Knowledge does not permit me to state. beyond the fact that the storms. eruptions and earthquakes will be tremendous in their strength and scope.
 Remember the date-December Ii to 20. and after.

That the earth will reel under the shock of mighty convulsion in the sun induced by the most remarkable grouping of colossal planetary bodies known to astronomy; and will be swept by terrific weather cataclysm during the period from December 1.th to December 20 and possibly beyond. is the startling prophecy made by Professor Albert F. Porta. the widely noted forecaster of sunspots and the discoverer of the strange influence eXerted by solar dis turbances on the terrestrial sphere. Professor Porta's remarkable predic- tion is based upon an unparalleled solar situation in which six of the mightest planets in !, our solar system will be grouped together within the narrow limit of 26 degrees on one side of the sun on December 17 in what is known to astronomers as a planetary conjunction:" while on the opposite side of the solar orb the giant plane; Uranus, one of the largest of our solar system will be in opposition to the mighty planetary grouping. The magnetic currents running between the grouped planets on one side of the sun and Uranus on the other will. accord ing to Prof. Porta. pierce the sun like q gigantic arrow and cause tremend- ous explosion on the flaming globe. The solar upheaval will result in the development of q huge crater which will be visible to the naked eye as n mighty spot on the sln. This solar volcano will shoot flaming gases hun dreds of thousands of miles into space and so disturb the celestial ether that the earth's atmosphe'e will probably be thrown into violen: convulsion and produce what Prof. Porta terms "the most terrific weathe- cataclysm ex- perienced since human history began. |"
 The influence of slnspots on the earth's atmospheric conditions has been conclusively demonstrated by snveraI scientific investiGa tors. hence Prof. Portals pfedict,oh is founded on basis of seiSNtifc fact whiir is caus- ing it to attract wide attetion in the Outside world. Many impotant maga : zines and newspapers haze devoted considerable space to the prophecy in recent weeks and it is rom one of these, the St. Paul Daily News, we reprint the following statement by Prof. Porta himself
 Whether or not this unprecedented planetary situation is tceause the of fleets on this mundane phere indicated by Prof. Porta, remains to be seen. The tremendous infiunce exerted by solar disturbances is 30 well demon strated. however. th:t the predicted convulsion in the sun may be expect ed to produce at least some atmos- pheric disturbances ov.r the earth. In any event it will be wse, gentle reader, to sit tight and hold onto your hat about December IT. Prof. Porta's prediction follows:
 Owing to strang. grouping of six mighty planets, such as has not been seen in a score o, centuries the United States next December will be swept by the most terrific weather cataclysm experienced since human history began.
 It will be caused by the hugest sunspot on recoM-A sunspot that Will be visible to the naked eye.
 Since man first began to make records of events no sunspot has been large enough to be seen without the aid of instruments. This one Will be.
