Describes the End Of An Visible
Creation.
Ample Warning to Be Given Before the
Great Day Of oestrustlon-New
Heaven and New Earth
to Arise.

Ragnarok, the twilight Of the gods,
Is an old myth Of the Morse gods. It
was q firm belief Of the northern ma
lions that a time would come when all
the visible creation, the gods Of Val
haIla and Niflheim. the inhabitants Of
Jotunheim, Elfheim and Midgard, to-
gether with their habltations, would be
destroyed. The fearful day Of de-
struetion will not, however, be with
out warning. First viii come triple
winter, according to the myth, during
which snow will fall from the four cor
ners of the heavens, the frost severe.
the wind piercing, the weather tempes-
tuous and the sun will impart no glad
ness. Three such winters will pass
without being tempered by a single
summer, the story goes. Three other
similar winters will follow, during
which war and diScord will spread
over the universe. The earth itself
will be afraid and begin to tremble,
the sea will leave its basin, the heav-
ems will tear asunder; men will per-
ish in great numbers, and the eagles
of the air will feast upon their still
Quivering bodies. Then the wolf Fen
ris will break his bonds, the Midgard
serpent will rise out Of his bed In the
sea and Loki, released from his bonds,
will join the enemies of the gods.
Amidst the general devastation the
sons of Muspelheim will rush forth un-
der their leader Surfer, before and be-
hind whom are flames and burning fire.
And, according to the myth, they will
ride onward over Bifrost, the rainbow
bridge, which breaks under the horses
hoofs. But they, dsregarding its fall,
direct their course to the battlefield
called Vigrid. Thither also repair the
wolf Ferris the Midgard serpent, Loki.
with all the followers Of Hela, and the
Frost giants.
Heimdall now stands up and sounds
the Giallar horn to assemble the gods
and heroes for the contest. The gods
advance, led by 0dn, who, engaging
the wolf Ferris, falls victim to the
monster. Ferris is, in turn, slain by
vithar, Odin's son. Thor wins great
renown by killing the Midgard serpent,
but, recoiling, falls dead, suffocated
with the venom which the dying mon
ster vomits over him. Loki and Helm
dali meet and fight till they both are
slain. The gods and their enemies
having fallen in battle, Surfer, who has
killed Freyr, darts fire and flames over
the world, and the universe is con-
sumed. The sun grows dim, the earth
sinks into the ocean, the stars fall
from the heavens and time is no more,
so the story runs.
After this Alfadur, the Almighty will
cause a new heaven and new earth
to arise out of the sea. The new
earth, filled with abundant supplies,
will produce its fruits without labor
or care. Wickedness and misery will
no more be known and the gods and
men will live happily together, so says
this myth Of the Norsemen.

 It developed that the man was one Billigot, former colonial soldier, at times street newspaper vendor, known to the citizens of Grenelle ward in Paris as Father of Luck" or "Fath- CT Cherry" (the little fruit being known in the parlance of the Paris gambling circles as the emblem of luck) He had run up 40 francs, the amount of his pension paid to him as an ex-soldier, into 115,080 francs. The police released him, af- ter giving him little advise about counting his wealth in public parks while slightly under the influence of I'd wine.
 Billigot invested 8e,00O francs in a life annuity the next morning, bought a suit of clothes, shoes, ct cetera, and before departing for Saint Cloud race track called on the friendly po- lice sergeant and gave him a tip on the races for that. afternoon. The horse won. The newspaper L'Eclair has iffered him 100 francs per day for his racing selections until the end of the season.

 Naked, Shoeless

Paris, July 9.-The Ministry of For eign Affairs of Montenegro main tained in Paris by Nicholas, former ly King of that country, has issued ali official communique, quoting the newspaper Republique of Belgrade concerning the Serbian occupation of Montenegro. The article says:
 "The people of Montenegro are naked and have no shoes They are too weak to work and earn a living because majority of the population has had little to eat for the last eight months or more. Many in- fants are dying and the children in many cases have bee nunable to go school because of weakness. This economic misery which is indescrib- able is aggravated by the regime of the authorities of occupation, main- tained by force and corrouption. The oppressors, sent by the government of Belgrade excite the people to an- ger, then kill them.. Those who are not killed are thrown into prison.'

 Alien AgitatOrs

Rio De Janeiro, July 7.-President Pessoa in a message to the National Congress has just denopnced alien radical agitators who during the past few months attempted to promote industrial strikes for their own ends and to destroy the existing social order." Police investigations showed he said, that the principal agents of these strikes were aliens and that they counselled inhuman and bar barous means, such as the use of bombs, to gain their ends. The Pres lident urged that congress should arm the government with laws of defense against these clements. He recommended that the project now before congress regulating the en- try of aliens into national territory be promptly passed into law, also the bill relating to anarchist crimes.

ON HANDLING WOMEN.

Elwell's advice on handling wo- men" which comes to light through statements made by his trainer-that is, his horse trainer, not his woman trainer-is only passably interest ing.
 It discloses nothing new. There isn't in it the sound and safe policy suggested by so many vaudevillians
 -"get 'em young, treat 'em rough, tell 'em nothing" And it does not come highly recommended inasmuch as Elwcll is now some four or five weeks dead-murdered possibly be- cause of some affair concerning q woman which he obviously didn't handle very we'll.
 ElwelPs advice in brief was this; "When you desire a woman, hold aloof from her, but let her find you frequently near her. Tell other wo- men how much you like her and con- tinue apparently to avoid her. Then invariably she will seek you"
 This is all very we'll and may work in some cases. There have been in stances, though where man pursued this policy of aloofness. He likewise told other women and the other wo- men told the woman. But somehow or other, the woman didn't respond and seek her aloof admirer.
 Finally he sought her, but couldn't find her, for the reason that she had married someone else, not so aloof, and had moved to another town.
 With women like these Elwell's system, in the words of Ruggles, isl likely to prove provokingly discon- eerting.

WHAT MEXICO MIGHT BE.

The first white men who prospect ed the region discovered by Columbus were especially attracted to Mexico. As matter of physical geography they were right, but as matter of modern progress they were complete ly mistaken. At the end of more than 400 years Mexico is solidly original. Its population is chiefly of Indian de- scent with the traits of an ancient race whose highest ambition is ap- parently to be let alone. Nor was Mexico happy in the foreigners who came to be it's dominating political caste. The country has consequently been land of endless revolutions and abortive government. The Indian element shows but little change and the infusion from Europe is more in the nature of a boiling cauldron than promising melting pot. The story of successive rulers is one of tragedy, and in an economic sense paralysis is the condition in general. The short lived administrations get nowhere and the mass of inhabitants never make start. Thus it has been cen- tutry after century. Mexico at this moment is a strange spectacle of chaos.
 To arrive at right idea of the real Mexico it is best to forget it's people and study the map. The region is one of different levels between the two greatest oceans. The climates are varied. Fertility, except in the north, is high The climates are diversified. What opportunities for rich produc- tion! What undeveloped wealth in minerals!
 It is wonderfully rich estate in the hands of almost barbaric incompe- tents.--Globe Demicrat
