HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY. OCTOBER ~. 1922.

Until late tonight fortune frowns
on men, according to astrology.
Mars, Jupiter and the Sun are all
in malehc aspect. In the evening
Venus Is friendly. 9
Under this planetary government
the, mind should be safeguarded
against depressing or despondent
thoughts which will be encouraged
by the rule of the stars.
During this sway even the most
successful men and women may
doubt their own capabilities.
Suicides may increase in number
at this time, which is likely to be
exceedingly trying to persons OF
sensitive nature.
Initiative in any big project should
be delayed. since effort under TINS
planetary direction may be difncuit
end really constructive activity may
- easily thwarted.
Danger of misunderstandings and
dissensions Is said to be increased
while Mars is in an evil place.
Domestic disagreements should be
avoided, as the rule is held to make
men inclined to be arbitrary ana
stubborn.
Neither they who, seek work nor
they who demand favors will sue
ceed while this configuration pre-
walls and they should delay all
activity until a more favorable as
pect dominates.
The evening should be favorable
time for wedding or romancss since
Venus smiles on lovers
Theaters and all places Of enter
tainment should benefit by this
evenings planetary direction.
Plays of high quality are to COM
mand attention this season. but
foreign authors will be more for
tunate than Americans.

Pacific Magazine, the April edition.

tion to the great Union Pacific
family" The high standard OF ex-
c%ellence is maintained in this latest
issue. much Of which is of lively gen
eral interest. although designed
principally for the aforesaid fam

covered the oldest telegrapher in the
United States, who is still actively
at work. in the person Of John Lon
ergan. who is still pounding brass
at Marysville, Kan. at the age Of 80
years young.
He was agent for St. Joseph &

to the sea heard Lincoln and
Douglas debate, AND was at Wash
ington to witness the Grand Review
at the close OF the Civil War. His
brother. Thomas. was first station
agent for the Union Pacific. being
located at OSallala, Neb.
In another article the Magazine
calls attention to the fact that Cen
eral Grant. whose centenary occurs
today. April 81, inspected Union
Pacific lines in 1869, and at Fort
Saunders. Wyo.. had conference with
Sherman. Sheridan. Dodge. Harvey
and others. said to have been the
largest a%ssemblage of generals ever
gotten together after the Civil War.
On Grants return from his trip
around the world in 1879. the Union
Pacific placed at his disposal George
NJ. Pullman's private car, and a spe'
cial train. handled under the direc'
ton Of Assistant Superintendent w
Is. Doddridge. now living in st
Louis.
