FAMOUS WUIVIAN WHU FUHETOLD
THF EURUPEAN WAR IS DEAD
PARIS. Dec. 28-Madame de The-
bes, famous as an astroiogist and clairvoyant, lr- dead at her country residence at Meunz-Sur-Loire, aged 72. I-lor real name was Anna Vic- iorinc Savigny, She possessed ln- uuanerable secrets concerning the private lives of men and women of note.
Mme de Thebes, seereas and pro-
Dhetess, occupied the position'of the 'Mother Shipton" oi’ the present gen- eration ever since the night she was launched on her career by the young- er Dumas himself. _
Mme de Thebes secured large finan-
ciafl returns through palmistry and during her career she read the hands of§Kings, Princes, Diplomats, Gener- als, Ministers, and leaders of alll nc- tlvities. Mme de Thebes' greatest fame came through the foreshadow- ing of the European War and the' invasion of Belgium, and nearly ap- proaching that was her- prediction that the invading~ German army
but would sustain' e crushing defeat at the Marne.
The llnlted States always proved
of interest to Mme de T-hebes, and she' took an intense interest in Aan- crican politics. Two years before the
‘birth of the Progressive party' ' she
foretold the struggle between Presid- cnt Taft and Ex-President Roosevelt and predicted that neither would ever again attain the presidency. ,
With the inauguration of President
Wilson, Mme de Thebes predicted re volutions in Mexico' would prove one of his great problems, but that the United States would not go to wal des-pite the fact-that bloodshed and death of American citizens would oc cur.
"Peace will come suddenly and 'un
expectedly. The roar of 'thai guns will cease over night, and the soldiers on both fronts will be called home tc peaceful pursuits. Fate has so de creed lt." -From Mme_'l‘hebes’ pro phecy that the European War wili
would come to the gates of Paris
end before 1917 (lawns.
