MR CLEMENT WRAGGE

OMINOUS WARNINGS TO NEW ZEALAiNJDERS. ' 1 By Telegraph.—Press Association. v /» Last Night. ' Mr. Clement Wragge, writing from Warrnamfoool, Victoria, says:-3fn some quartere in the (Empire City my forecasta of coming cosmic events have either been ignored or politely passed by with a genial smirk. That does not matter one scrap , or the decimal part of » scrap. Cosmic law runs its course notwithstanding. Perhaps the occurrence at Waimangu and Frying Plan Plain will remind people that I repeatedly told them during my recent lectures that earthquake and volcanic action would increase and rainfall decrease between 1009 and 1015, not only in New Zealand but in the Southern Hemisphere generally, the opposite conditions prevailing in the Northern Hemisphere. The floods in Europe have a great significance for those-living in Australasia, South Africa and South America, and in no less degree the Waimangu. eruption, with respect to places where the crust of the earth is weak. Only some extraneous factor of which I have no knowledge ia influencing the sun, can prevent the fuN filment of my warnings. The wise will understand and be forearmed, and nothing further need be said."
