A. H< < rrophecyof 146b Has Come True Quaker O'Taylor in National Republican. Something like 400 years ago a woman in England, known as "Mother Shipton," thrilled the world with a series of strange and remarkable prophecies. Many of those weird forecasts of future events have strangely enough come to fulfillment right here in the United States in very recent* years. Her prophecies were all made in rhyme. Do you suppose she had the modern day airplane in mind four centuries ago, for instance, when she quilled this picture of the future: In the air men shall be seen, Floating in space, where none hath been. Could She have been indulging in beautiful prophetic day dreams of the wireless telegraphy and telephony of the present era when making the prediction that: Around the world thoughts shall fly In the twinkling or an eye. Possibly steam locomotives and other varieties of steam engines were in her thought as she expressed this coming event: Water and fire shall wonder do; Now Strang*, yet shall be true. The excavation of the ruins of Pompeii and other ancient cities long buried beneath the volcanic ashes, was foretold thusly: Houses shall appear in the vales below, . That for years were covered with soil and snow; Cities be found?that for years were lost, And be disinterred?at a nation's cost. It was not so many years ago that the wooden vessels sailing the oceans of the world were superseded by iron and steel boats both as battleships and passenger craft. Mother Shipton glimpsed this marvelous change in water transportation away back in her time when she said: Iron in the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat. I wonder if it was the "immortal bard," William Shakespeare, the lady of the future was thinking of in this brief verse: A great man shall come, Whose works shall live to the end of doom.

One of Madam Shipton's choicest premonitions was that in which the ' millions of motor cars of today were ' foretold in these amazingly truthful L lines: Carriages without horses shall go And accidents fill the world with woe. The invention of the submarine^ ' the tunnels beneath rivers and the k diving apparatus have followed this poetical announcement: Under water men shall walk? Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk. The issuance of the proclamation of omanninaMnn hv "PrpoiHont Ahr? ham Lincoln was preceded hundreds of years with the following prophecy from the lips of the Shipton lady: Far over a wild and stormy sea, A race shall gain their liberty. , Visions of George Washington,! ; Benjamin Franklin, Valley Forge, , Monmouth, Princeton, Yorktown,, the crossing of the Delaware amid cakes of floating ice, and many other historical scenes of the revolutionary war will be instantly, visualised by the reader with this early hint of American's independence: A distant land in the west countree Shall fight for and obtain her liberty. The present world-wide agitation for a reduction of taxes and the limitation of armament was vaguely hinted by Mother Shipton thuswise: Taxes for blood and war Shall come to every door. Persons who have read Darwin's work on the origin of the human race will eagerly read this effusion by the lady with the century-piercing eyes: An ape shall appear in a leap year, That shall put the human race in fear, And Adam's origin in dispute, Be brought by those of great repute. It required nine lines for Ma Ship ton to depict some of the future woes and worries of France: Three times three shall lovely-France Be led to dance a bloody dance; Before her people shall be free, Three tyrant rulers shall she see. Three times three the people's hope is gone, Three rules in succession see. Each spring from different dynasty, Then shall the worser fight be done; England and France shall be as one.

She fell down, and leu nara, wnen sne wroie: The world then to an end shall come, In eighteen hundred and eighty-one. That was her one bad bet. The year 1881 had its inning 40 years a$o without making any perceptible dent in the crust of the world. This dire prophecy did, however, stir up considerable fear and trembling during the latter months of 1880 and the early months of 1881 among the superstittously ' inclined, not only throughout this country, but pretty much all over the world. In an ancient English history may be found this interesting account of Mother Shipton's life: "In 1486 there lived a woman called Agatha Shipton, at Knaresborough, in Yorkshire. She was born; according to general accounts, in the reign of Henry VII, and baptized by the abbot of Beverly in the name of Agatha Southell, a circumstance which proves by the surname being of foreign extraction by the father's side, wlio prooaoiy came over wim the Bretaique association of the earl of Richmond, after Henry VII. "Very little is known of her parentage, but when 24 years old she was courted by one Toby Shipton, a builder of Shipton, a village situated four miles from the city of York. This match goes to disprove the vul | gar idea of her body being crooked, her face frightful and her whole ap- ; pearance disgusting. With respect to her gift of prophecy, we have no other authorities than traditionary revelations from father and son, as no written account concerning her life can be found prior to the reign of Charles II. * J ''Never a day passed but she related something remarkable that re- ( quired the most serious consideration ] and now it was that people flocked 1 from far and near, all returning with . the explanations she gave to their t questions.

"The last prediction of Mother ] Shipton was concerning her death ; < and when the time she had prophe- ? sied approached, she called together * her friends, advised them well, took j a solemn leave of them and laying I herself down on her bed departed'1 this life with much serenity upward 1 of 73 years of age, in the reign of c Queen Elizabeth, A. D. 1561.
