OLD MOORE,

CROP OF DEATH, SCANDAL, AND. DISASTER FOR 1910.

Old Moore sends a forward, copy of his sensational prophecies for 1910.

The year, says the sage of Pilgrim-st., is bound to begia badly, with."evil" to King and Goverement; it may mean death in the highest. circles." Then your fish will cost you more owing to a bloater famine on the East Coast,

OH! DEAR!

There will be such a glut of Journalism that wo shali hava'to get a licenta for selling news papers in the streets, and "A sensationst affair with cards will cause two high Society dames to hide their heads."

..

So much for January. It is comforting to note that in February "recognition of some sort will be given to the ideals of educated India, calming the minds of millions of natives?

A battleship disaster in the Pacific, a railway mystery at Cardiff, a "panicette" on the Stock Exchange, and the month ends cryptically:

What does it mean? Flage are at half-mast, bells are tolling-someone great and beloved bas passed away) --'

March promises less excitement : The double life of a prominent Itgal star will cause a fall like. Lucifer and that is about all.

April will see very popular Parliament, with “both sides, strange to say, in some sort of unison for universal good," whilat "Birming bam loses by death a very prominent resident -in fact, quito a pillar of the city."

May will be scintillating with jewel robberies and there will be trouble in the army at home and in India.

August promises a dreadful steamship' dis- aster close to land, and September so unplaas ant graveyard schodal. October will be noted for the leaking out of a Cabinet'secret, and the ̈month will wind up with a coal-misë disaster.

The festivities of Christmas month will be somewhat lessened by tha,signs of mourning, for the band of Death will be laid on very .exáfted persons.
