MONDAY, MAY 1, 1922.

This is rather an uncertain day.
according to astrology. Mars and
Saturn are adverse early in the
morning, but Mercury dominates in
benefic aspect later.
1t is a rule under which to be
extremely conservative in business
matters and speculation may be es-
pecially unfortunate.
Mars and Saturn are menacng
and certainly bode Ill for labor
Strikes, long prophesied, may be
particularly serious, since riots and
bloodshed may be easily precipi-
tated. owing to the aspect Of Mars.
Military affairs will not be satis-
factory and there may be some sort
of army activity, for men under
arms may be called into the field.
The planetary government long
has been threatening to the min
ing industry and warning Is given
that labor is subject to forces
maxim for cooperation and inde-
pendence.
Farmers should benefit from this
sway of Saturn which seems to in
dicate fruitfulness for the earth.
Again severe storms are foretold
and unusual weather Is forecast,
but agriculturists will benefit
through improved market condi-
tions.
This should be an auspicious day
for the signing OF leases and con-
tracts Of every sort. Real estate
conditions will continue satisfac-
tory in all parts Of the country, It
is predicted.
The lunation of this month
should bring happiness to Ireland.
since II falls in Taurus well as
pected by Uranus.
Traffic conditions should be i'm
proved, owing to legislation and
increased travel at this time.
Deaths from accident and espe-
cialIy from accidents caused in the
course of sporting events are fore
told.

that Is what Hattie Spriggs init
mated when she testified against
Medley after accusing him of
threatening her life.
Preston's brother had a quarrel
with a woman. The woman ran
into Hattie's apartment. The COM
motion frightened Hattie, she said,
and she threw a pot of scalding hot
coffee on the brother and burned
his side.
Then, Hattie said, Preston heard
about it and grumbled. The man
said that he was going to wait un~
til pay day, Hattie declared. and
get a gun and blow off her topknot
for scalding his brother.
81 never changed words with that
woman in my life," said Preston.
"You let your brother take care
of his own troubles" the court
warned the accused. 'If he has any
grievance against Hattie, let him
get a warrant"
The court then took Preston's
personal bonds and advised him to
let the woman alone.
