Prophecy. made at Mayencs, sn- nounoesthe fall of Germany and Austria-Hungary ln 1914, There is in Germany a famous pro- phecy. It is called “The Prophecy of Mliyence," and dates from 1854. It comprises eighteen verses of predic- tion. of which the first nine have been fulfilled in the most remarkable man- ner. Here are the verses: 1. When the little people of the _Oder shall feel themselves strong °l`l0ll8h to shake off the yoke' of their protector and when the barley is sprouting from their ears their King Villliam shall march against Austria. 2.- They will have victory upon vic- l0l'Y up to the gates of Vienna, but a word from the great Emperor of the West shall make the heroes tremble on the field of victory. and the barley shall not he gathered -in until he has signed the peace, shaken off the yoke and returned triumpliantly to his country. 3. But at the gathering in of the fourth barley and that of the oats a dreadful sound of war shall call the liarvesters to arms. A formidable army. followed by an extraordinary number of engines of war that hell alone could have invented, shall start towards the West. ' 4. Woe to thee, great nation, woe to you who have abandoned the rights divine and human. The God of Bat- tles has forsaken you; who will suc- cour you? 5. Napoleon Ill., mocking his ad- versary at first, shall soon turn back towards the “Chene-Populeux" where he shall disappear never to re-appear. 6. ln spite of the heroic resistance of France, a. multitude of soldiers, blue, yellow, yellow and black, shall scatter themselves over a great part of Francs. 7. Allsace and Lorraine shall be carried away from France for a per- iod and half a period. 8. The F’i'eiic,ii shall only take cour- age again as against each other. 9. Woe to thee, great city, woe to thee, city of vice! Fire and sword shall succeed fire and famine. 10. Courage, faithful souls , the reign of the dark shadow shall not liavo time to execute all its schemes. 11. But the time oi mercy ap- proaches. A prince of thc nation is in your midst. 12. It is the man of salvation, the wise, the invincible, lie shall count his enterprises by lils victories. 13. He shall drive out the cnoniy of France, hc ebnll march to victory on victory until the day ot’ divine jus- tice. 14. That day, he shall command seven kinds of soldiers, against three to the quarter of Bouleaux between Ham, Wocrl and Paderborn. 15. Woe to tlicc, people of the north, thy seventh generation shall answer for all thy crimes. Woe to tliec, people of the East, thou shalt spread afar the cries of afiiction and innocent blood. Never shall such an army be seen. 16. Three days the sun shall rise ' upwards on the heads of the combat- / omend. So no matter what he 2' watch.

The Sliiiilliiii RUMOR AND PATHOS AT THE FRONT Thrilling stories are now coming rapidly one after another from those who have taken part in the lighting on the French frontier, and there is humour as well aspathos in them, as the following indlcatez- No Request for Two Helplngs. An intelligent Northumberland Fusilier with the British told a cor- espondent his regiment had had treat fighting in a colliery town not r fi'om'Mons "Mostly firing, but South Lancashlres made it. The Germans don’t like that sort of fight- ing. They won’t come out, or they wouldn’t come, at any rate, to meet us. Once we got within seeing distance of a whole bunch of them. They were in Close formation, masses of ’em. Our machine guns did 'em up proper. When we do catch them they don’t ask for two helpings.” “Good-Bye, Mr Flying-Man." "In the daytime the Germans had aeroplanes," said one of the British wounded after the battle at Mons, “ to tell them where to drop their shells. They were flying about all the time. One came a bit too near. Our gunners, a long way behind us, _you know, waited and lst him come on. He thought he was all right. Two thous- and feet he was up, I dare say. We could _hear his engine. Ho may have made a lot-of notes, but they wcren't any use to him or anybody, for all of a sudden our gunners let fly at him. We could see the thing stagger, and then it dropped like a stone. all crum- pled up. Good-bye, Mr Flying Man! That was the end of him." ’ ' Touches of Detail. A French infaritryman, who was wounded at Charleroi, said: “ The Ger- mans were attacking from the north -that is, from the direction of Brus- sels. They began by attacking Char- loroi. That was on Saturday. As many of the inliabitants as could clear out did so, poor creatures. Tho shell fire was awful. That iilglit the Ger- mans got in. But iicxt morning we had them out again. Wesurprised them by the violeiiceof our fire. One lieutenant of Uiilans we found fallen forward over a pail. lie was stripped to the waist. In his hand was u. piece of soap still. Ile had been washing. Another sat at table iii a little inii. His cup of coffee stood before him. He had been drinking out of the saucer, nnd had dropped it, The broken pieces lay .on the ooor." Turcos and Paradise. Aiiotllerlnvalidod Frenchman gives the following story:-"All that day and the next day the battle raged round Charleroi. It was taken und retaken five times. You can guess there is not much of the town left! Under cover of artillery fire both sides advanced and retreated their infantry. Several times they fought breast to breast. Once thc Turcos (the Arab troops from Algeria and Senegal) got right up to a battery and killed the gunners with their bayonets. They were like men possessed. Nothing could stop them. They are taught by their religion that death means Paradise. Mon Dieu, monsieur, enough of them found Paradise that day. There_ must have been a struggle at the gate! ” Weird Searchlights. I-Iere is a weird story by-a British private who was wounded near Mons -" In the dark the Germans turned on searchlights. We could see them hunting about for someone to pot nt. Uncanny that was. To see the bloom- ing big lane of light working round and round until it camo to something! Then we heard the shells whistle. And when it came round to us and lit us up so that \ve could see cnch other's faces, Lord, it made my blood run cold-just like I used to feel when I was ii iiipper and woke up and saw a light und thought it was a ghost and lay there wondering what would hap- pen next." ::I<‘or putting your live stock in prime condition, invigorating.

His announcement of the_fact to his mother, a few days after the battle, is contained in the following letter, which has just been made public:- ` “My good mother: As I don’t know if any of the letters that I have written to you have`arrived, or rather, since I have strong reasons for believing that none of them have reached you, while, this time, I may hope that you will bo able to see my autograph. I am going to relate my adventures at length. “ First of ali, the originality of the preceding seven lines must lead you to think that they were traced by a foot instead of a hand. Undcceive yourself and laugh neither at the first efforts of an unpracticed hand, nor at the style. Besides, the fact that I speak almost exclusively German just now, I swear that elegant phrases don’t flow easily when it takes five minutes .to trace a line. “But I ani forgeting that I haven't told you the main thing.

An iioiir afterwards I re- gretted much less the loss of the above-mentioned digits because a Bavarian bullet fractured the same hand and lodged itself between the two bones of my wrist, foin which l deli- cately extracted it. -I was then ordorcd to the ambulance. and it was while I dragged myself along in that direction, obliged to pass uiidcr the tire of thc Prussian batteries” that I i'e<'.cived a fragment of a shell in my right thigh.
