Already Belgian reports have accused accused Germans of "wiping out whole villages" of -innocent people ; with shooting the wounded; with abusing the white flag. Already the French have charged the Germans with shooting innocent civilians ; with wanton destruction of property property ; with brutal treatment of women. women. Already the Germans have charged the French " with forcing German women to work in the fields, while Frenchmen captured and held in Germany are simply put in prison ! Soon, no doubt, we shall have the classic accusation that the enemy has endeavored to poison the sources of water supplies ; that violations violations of women are frequent on the part of the enemy's troops; that looting and brigandage is the rule ; that desecration of sacred places is common. And it will be a miracle if at some time during the hostilities we do not witness a resurgence of the century-old story that some prominent leader has evaded capture by disguising himself himself in women's clothes. These accusations accusations are familiar, and each side is always ready to suspect the other side of being guilty. The merest rumor " is therefore sufficient-. sufficient-.

Would Be Last of His Line. Almost obscure in the hurly- burly of life are five and a half feet of gentle, polite, reticent man, smiling but unspeaking ; thoughtful but = approachable, at whose name the enthroned ones shudder and at whose appearance the police forces of the nations gather themselves for supreme efforts. The doors of the countries are closed to him ; the law hunts or shuns him ; kings listen to his utterances utterances and feel their structures tremble and stagger. And the quiet man slinks here and there, planning, plotting, exhorting. Wherever he goes he leaves his footprint of blood and violence and ruin. He has done no specific crime, this little man; yet he has spent years in prison and in exile.

(Fsrserly Wilier.) will be the last King of Prussia; he will have no other successors than a King of Poland, a King of Saxony, Saxony, and a King of Hanover." More than 600 years ago this prophecy prophecy was made by an obscure monk of Mayence. Since then it has been handed down from father to son, through the centuries, until to-day it possesses a startling significance. significance. By plunging all Europe into into bloodshed Wilhelm II., the Kaiser, Kaiser, must stand or fall by the issue. The defeat of Germany will mean his virtual disappearance as a -world's dictator; it may even mean the disruption of the German Empire. Empire. Well may one ask whether the prediction of the clairvoyant monk of by-gone years will come true. Other predictions made by this ancient seer Have proved amazingly correct. The prophet mentions William I. by name, describes describes him: marching against Austria Austria from victory between "the earing earing and the harvesting of barley," and as having his march of triumph arrested at ' the very gates of Vienna "by-jfehe word of a great Em- poror." A more accurate forecast of the Auatro-Prussian "seven days' war' ' in the summer of 1866 is inconceivable. In that campaign, it will be remembered, Bismarck checked his victorious advance to Vienna because he believed that the Emperor Napoleon III. was preparing preparing to march his forces across the Rhine in the Prussian rear. Then the seer foretells how within four years (1870) a great army would be mustered with deadly engines of war and marched eastwards. "Woe," he says, "to the nation that has forsaken all. laws, human a/nd divine, and will be abandoned by the Lord of Hosts." He pre- ceeds to picture the flight of Napoleon Napoleon III. before his. enemies to a spot near Sedan, and his disappearance, disappearance, never to return. Finally, after telling of the complete resuscitation resuscitation of France, he concludes with the declaration quoted above-- the only prophecy which has yet "to be fulfilled .- * and rebellions have sprouted, but never has he personally been incriminated. incriminated. He works in the daik and escapes in the dark back to his little mechanical shop in Soho, London, while one government after after another reels from his unseen blows. In Trouble Again. His name is Malatesta, and he has just again eluded the Italian police after stirring up the bloody Ancona strikes which forced the calling out of Italy's naval and military forces. The monarchs on their thrones are doomed to more quaking. . . , . When the Italian navy arrived in too great strength for the Ancona strikers, it is said that Malatesta, disguised as a workman, left his rooms in great haste and escaped into Switzerland. In searching his house the police say they found letters and money orders from American anarchists, and notes advising advising Malatesta to assassinate the Italian king. More thariSikely the last is a bit of police information given out for the effect. The quiet little Soho mechanician does not kill. "Kill kings!" he. said on one oc- casion. -"Too foolish. I should rather kill chickens. They are good to eat, but what could one do with a king !" 0t an Old Family.

Their line dates from the thirteenth century, century, when Malatesta de Verru- chio set himself as Lord of Rimini and handed down a fief, which his descendants held for more than three centuries. The Malatestas are of the first families of Italy, and the old castle of Rimini, .in whose shade the lovely Francesca listened. to tlie tender pleadings of her Paolo, may still be seen, though time has stripped it of its gardens and glories and converted it into a macaroni factory. This is the line of the little man who makes kings tremble. Count Enrico Malatesta he has the right to call himself, but that he has never never done. His father and uncles were high comrnanders in the forces of Crown Prince Humbert when Victor Emmanuel drove' the Austrians Austrians out of Italy. He himself has been openly accused of having instigated instigated the assassination of that same Humbert. Malatesta is nqjsy sixty-one -years old. About forty-,years ago, when he was a medical student in Naples, Naples, he threw off "the rank and station to which he was born, and assisted in the fomenting of a Roumanian Roumanian uprising- against Turkey. The Porte hunted him out, and he returned to Italy. Saved From Death. In 1899, having been successively expelled from Italy, Turkey, Spain, France, Russia, Germany, Switzerland and Belgium,' and proscribed in every-European country country save England, he came to the United States at the call of Paterson Paterson and Reading radicals to become become editor of Là Question Sociale in Paterson. First, however, he bad to be rescued from a small island island off the Tunisian coast, whither Italy had exiled him. z Malatesta lectured for a time in America, was shot in the thigh at one of the Anarchist meetings and saved from death by Gaetano Bres- ci, who ingratiated himself with the Red leader by the rescue and soon became an intimate. In 1900 Malatesta went to London London and established himself in Soho and Islington. A little later Bresci sailed for Italy with two companions. companions. And then came the news of the assassination of King Humbert. The police have not yet been convinced convinced that the plot to kill the King was not hatched in Paterson by Malatesta. But a little later Malatesta- appeared appeared in Paris. Almost immediately immediately there were, two attempts on the life of the Persian. Shah,- then visiting the French capital. A shot at the French President followed. In Switzerland and Belgium riots attended the visits of . Malatesta. In Germany, it was said, his influence influence brought about- an attempt on the : Kaiser. That is the record of this quiet, lirbane little Italian." Yet Malatesta, Malatesta, is neither a bomb thrower nor a maker ' of bombs, though his appearance appearance would suggest that character character to the popular mind.

A half- method has been'found of mining | b r , ee d interpreter went along with the party. The lieutenant found the dato, who had word of his coming, seated in solemn state. He wore a gown of angry Turkey-red calico, while scores of cockatoo feathers bristled the salt. Instead off as formerly, making shafts, down which the men are swung, and up which the salt is raised after being hewn or blasted, the following method is adopted. Holes are bored in the ground, sometimes from 500 feet to 1,200 | j n hi s wool. Heavy rings gleamed on his fingers and toes. Around him were ranked a score of his warriors. warriors. The interpreter translated the letter. letter. The dato, who could not read feet in depth, until the salt beds are reached. Tubes are then inserted inserted from 9 to 12 inches in diameter, diameter, and. water is sent down to the bottom, where it dissolves - the salt rock, forming strong brine. This eventually rises up the tube-, whence it is pumped to -the surface. If quite saturated it then contains 26 per cent, of salt, the remainder being being water, generally colored with clay or other impurity. The brine is then run into salt pans for evaporation. For 200 years at least, until quite recently only one method was employed for this evaporation. The iron saltpans are from 60 to 80 feet long, 30 feet broad, and 2% feet- deep. Huge fires are lighted at one end of the pans, and flues brought underneath.' underneath.' The brine is boiled, and the water evaporated until the salt falls down to the bottom of the pan. It is then raked out and laid in heaps to drain, and is then, for many pur-' poses, ready for the- market. The temperature at which the brine is evaporated determines the quality of the salt crystals. When fine table salt is wanted the boiling is conducted more rapidly, and this makes a finer crystal. A second type of evaporation pan is what is known as the vacuum pan. The brine, instead of being poured into open pa,ns, is run through pipes into large closed boxes, boxes, from which the air is, in a great measure, removed by pumps. By this means the water is removed much more cheaply. Formerlj 7 the great- objection to table salt was that it became damp when exposed to the air. In order to prevent this, salt manufacturers have added a little of something and placed what is known as prepared salt on the market. > / ' The best-known of this prepared salt, perhaps, is Cerebos table salt, which was introduced about twenty years ago by George Weddell, of Ne wca stle -on -Ty n,e. While experimenting with for his own family, he discovered a means of removing the damp- causing particles by converting them into phosphates- without altering altering the salt -itself.- Phosphates, of course, enter in one form or another into every organ of the body, including including the brain, and for its supply supply of these the body depends upon the food. The phosphates •naturally present in food, however, are mostly lest in the process of cooking and preparing, and by adding this prepared prepared salt they are in a measure restored restored to the food,- while at the same time improving its flavor. or write a- word in any language, took the sheet from his hand and gazed long and frowningly upon it. "Well," - said the lieutenant, growing restless, -for he was fully aware .of the Moro's complete lack of education, "ask him what v his answer is." The interpreter translated this; whereupopi the dato seized a piece of charcoal from the open fire and, making a number of .marks upon the back of* the letter, returned it to the lieutenant in solemn silence, while his warriors looked on; struck with admiration at their ' leader's learning. The lieutenant gazed a-t the meaningless meaningless "hen tracks" that the dato had scrawled across the page, and frowned in disgust. ' 'Tell him, " • he cried, impatiently, to the interpreter, interpreter, "that I want to know just what this, means; whether wc get the horses, or whether it-'s war!" As the hot words were translated to him, the old dato snatched the letter-from the lien tenant's hand and, seizing a twig that was burned at one end to a- live coal, he swiftly punched three holes through the sheet. Then he handed hack to the .officer, drew .himselt up t-o his full height, and haughtily declaimed-something declaimed-something in his native tongue, while his warriors bowed ground in awe. "He says," translated tin 1 prêter with a smile, "that ho thought every warrior knew (hat when one ruler answers amener ruler's letter by writing^on the buck of it, it means war; and when he burns three holes through means war twice.' i- > ne ! n ' IT ALLAN LIME TxOYAL jSSEsysss To LIVERPOOL.
