    Big Aviation and Race Meet.
The citizens of Lock Haven have ar-
ranged for a big “Old Home” aviation
and race meet on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, August 27, 28 and 29, when
the city will be crowded with visitors, in-
cluding former residents. The putting
on of the high class attractions for the
three day’s program will entail an outlay
of $3,000. Nearly all the events of each
day will take place at the Lock Haven
Driving Park and will include two sensa-
tional zroplane flights to a height of 1,-
000 feet, followed by spiral glides by
Captain Baldwin, the famous airman;
trotting and pacing events each day for
purses of $1,200, in which many fast
hoitses of Pennsylvania and New York
have been entered; exciting motorcycle
races for good purses; band concerts
each day and evening; championship
base ball games between Lock Haven and
Renovo on Thursday and Friday after-
noons, and many other attractions, all
for one price of admission. The citizens
of the Hub city of Pennsylvania extend
a cordial invitation to the people of Cen-
tral Pennsylvania to join them on this
occasion for the purpose of having a
good time.
Storing Up Heat.
An inventor in Stockholm, Sweden,
has devised an apparatus, for storing
heat. It consists of a mass of heat
absorbing material, in which is placed
a coil of resistance wire. Surrounding
the heat-storing material is heat-insu
lating material, while at the top is a
damper which may be operated to
permit the heat stored in the maga-
zine to radiate out of the top. The
entire apparatus is inclosed in a heat-
radiating cover.
To facilitate the radiation of heat
there is a system of air passages
thrcugh the heat-storing materials.
The apparatus is adapted to be used
during off-peak periods, storing heat
which may be used as needed.
An experimental apparatus about a
yard high, 25 inches long and 1%
inches wide showed a storing capsuity
of about 25000 kilogramme calories,
while a temperature in the sworing
magazine of about 600 degrees C. or
about 1,100 degrees F. was obtained.
She Was the Boss.
There are husbands who, among
their male companions, like to have
it supposed that they are just a little
bit tyrannical at home. One such man,
who had two or three friends at his
house one evening, remarked, as they
were chatting together comfortably at
a rather late hour:
“Yes, I do what I like at home. My
wife, she has to bend to my will, I can
tell you. In my house I'm a regular
Julius Caesar.”
His wife came into the room in
time to hear this last sentence. The
tyrant of his household looked a litile
uneasy, but his wife neither frowned
nor, apparently, paid any attention to
the remark. But, after a moment, she
remarked, very positively:
“Gentlemen, it is late, and Julius
Caesar has got to go to bed.”

| WHEN JENNIE LIND SALUTED
Beautiful Tribute Which the Great
Singer Once Paid to Our Na-
tional Flag.
honor Jennie Lind once paid to the
American flag. It was when she was
in New York, more than 60 years ago.
The frigate St. Lawrence had just re-
turned from a cruise, and the midship-
men went to hear the Swedish night:
ingale sing at Castle Garden theater,
and the next day they called on her
in a body. Their enthusiasm and her
graciousness soon brought about a
visit to the ship and the acceptance
of a luncheon tendered her. When
she was about to leave the ship she
looked up at the stars and stripes and
said:
“I wish to salute your flag.”
So, standing on the gangway, she
sang “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Si
lently from all over the ship men
gathered with uncovered heads, until
the ship’s family was all assembled
on deck. Nor were they her only au:
dience, for borne upon the still air
her song had been heard by many
other vessels near by, and when the
wondrous voice ceased steamers blow
their whistles and exultant cheess
rose from all sides, filling the harbor
with their tribute of applause for ths
beloved artist and of loyal reyerene
for the flag she had so beautifully sa.
luted.—Rehoboth Sunday. Herald.
A Wonderful wail. ;
Few people realize what an almost
perfect condition prevails along a
large part of the great wall of China.
The bricks of the Farapet are as firm
as ever, and their edges have stood
the severe climatic conditions of North
China with scarcely a break. The
paving along the top of the wall is so
smooth that one may ride over it with
a bicycle, and the great granite blocks
with which it is faced are smooth and
as closely fitted as when put in place
over 2,000 years ago.
The entire length of this wall is
1,400 miles; it is 22 feet high and 20
feet in thickness. At intervals of 100
yards or so there are towers, some 40
feet in height.
Agony Psychologized.
The “agony column” of a London
newspaper recently contained this ap-
peal to one “Dot:” “Waited two hours
for you, and your failute to turn up
of course ruined my hard-earned holi-
lay. Speak frankly. ’Twere kinder
than suspenSe.” However “Dot” may
explain her heartlessness, there is no
doubt of the correct psychology of the
assertion that the knowledge of dis-
aster is easier to bear than suspense.
In fact, as Professor James says some-
where, it may even bring a kind of re:
‘ief, and the mind, instead of dwelling
upon hypothetical contingencies, be-
gius to race the facts.
There is a pretty story told of the |'
Death of the Pope.
ROME, Aug. 20.—Pope Pius X died at
1.20 o’clock this (Thursday) morning.
He had been ill for several days, but
alarming symptoms did not develop until
Wednesday morning.
Throughout the day Drs. Marchiafava
and Amici devoted their utmost energies
to stimulating thair patient to keep him
alive. The cardinals were notified of the
pope’s grave condition and some of them
who entered the sick room describe the
impressive and heartrending scenes, es-
pecially when the pontiff, rousing him-
self from time to time, spoke. Once he
said:
“In ancient times, the pope by a word
might have stayed the slaughter, but now
he is impotent.”
Prayers were said by thousands,and
the bells of the churches sounded when
the sacrament was exposed upon all the
altars. When the court learned of the
condition, there was the deepest con-
cern. King Victor Emmanuel personally
informed Queen Helena and the news
was communicated to the queen mother.
Extreme unction was administered by
Monsignor Zampini, sacristian to his
holiness, amid a most touching scene
The sisters of the pope and his niece
were overcome with grief. Cardinal
Merry Del Val knelt by the side of his
bed, where other cardinals joined him,
the members of the household intoning
prayers.
The dying pope, in a moment of lucid-
ity, said:
“Now I begin to think as the end is
approaching, that the Almighty, in his
inexhaustible good, wishes to spare me
the horrors the world is undergoing.” -
Wednesday was one of the most anx-
ious days in the history of the papacy.
‘The whole world knew that the pope was
indisposed, but it was supposed that he
was suffering from his usual ailment, the
gout. Up to noon even the members of
the household were unaware of the ser-
iousness of the developments. Almost
without warning came the word that the
pontiff was at death’s door.
