WONDERS OF THE HEAVENS.
Some Wondering Estimates OF the
Movements of the Various Planets.

Some Wondering Estimates of the
Movements of the Various Planets.
From the Contemporary Record.
The elder Strive made the movement of
the sun through space to be about five miles
a second, but on the superstition of the
brightest stars being between two and three
times nearer to US than they seem really to
be. We can now see that the actual speed
of the solar system can rcely fall
short of twelve or exceed twenty
miles second. By moderate
estimate, then, our position in space is
changing to the extent of 100000, 900
of miles annually, and a collision between
our sun and the nearest fixed star would be
inevitable (were our course directed in a
straight line toward it, after the lapse Of
$4,000 years.
The old problem of show the heavens
move" successfully attacked in the solar
system, has retreated to a stronghold among
the stars, from which it will be difficult to
dislodge it. In the stupendous mechanism
of the sideral universe, the acting forces
can only betray themselves to us by the
varying time CONGREGATIONS of It's parts.
But as yet our knowledge Of stellar move
ments is miserably scanty. They are APP
parently so minute as to become perceptl-
BILE, in general, only through observations
of great precision extending over number
OF years. ENen LHe quickest IuOVlHS SldT

moon. Yet all the time owing to the in
conceivable distances of the objects in mo-
tom these almost eyanescent displace-
ments represent velocities in many cases 5 O
enormous as to battle every attempt to &C
count for them.

treme rarity. One in the Great Bear.
known as "Groombrldge $780," invisible to
the naked eve, but sweeping over at least
200 miles each second, long led tho van of

graphic determination Of the parallax of
Cassiopels shows, however, that inconspi-
cuouS object not only TO be a sun about for
ty times as luminous as our own, but to be
travelling at the prodigious rate of 100 miles
while DR.. Ekins result for Arcturus
gives it velocity of little less than 400
miles--a second.
The express star of the Southern hemis-
phere, so far, is one Of the fourth magni-
tude situated in Toucan. It's spe cd of about
200 miles "A second may, however, soon turn
out to be surpassed by some Of the rapidly
moving stars picked out for measurement
at the Cape. Among them are some pairs
drifting together, and presumed there
fore to be connected by a special physical
bond, and TO lie at nearly the same dista nee
from ourselves. This presumption will now
be brought 70 the test.

! young lady and gentleman, who being very
| modest tried to keep their balance without
| touching each other. But the more they
| ducked the more the boat filed. until the
| lady, becoming panic stricken, cried out:
| Lord, make us thankful for what we are
about to receive, and then they clung to
each other in an old-fashioned hug, amid
the laughing shouts of the spectators on the
bank. The boat was finally got to land,
but the young lady and gentleman do not
enjoy any more peace and quiet.
At Georgetown Dr. s. A. Crumbley's
drug store, A. r. Fosters bar, Sandy Birds
restaurant and ID. N. Davidson's storehouse,
which was occupied by r. II. Grady with
full line of dry goods and groceries, were
destroyed by fire Sunday night about IL
o'clock. 1t is not known how the fire origi
mated, but good many believe that 1t was
caused by a lamp in Fosters bar exploding,
as he always kept one burning all night. All
the buildings were new ones, and the in
surance was light Davidson had his store
insured for $500, which is about two-thlrds
of its value Grady had no insurance on
his stock of goods. Foster had his building
insured full up. DIR. Crumblv is the
heaviest loser, as he had no insurance. He
estimates his loss at between $4,000 and
$1,000. All his medical books, his accounts
and notes and some money were destroyed

country were turned on New York yester
day, and the ceremonies attending the CEN

unmindful of some mementos OF the father
Of his country, now in the library. Mr..
Hsrbst was showing with pardonable pride
an old daguerreotype frame with small
piece Of worsted stuff carefully preserved
under piece of glass. The following in
scription shows what the article is, and it
will be readily seen that it is now
of some value: "a piece of the carpet

ington penny. On the diverse side is a
medallion of Washington and the inscrip-
tion, washington President" Over on
TIE reverse is an American eagle and the
inscription, Zone cent, 1911" Mr.. Herbst,
also shows a two-bladed horn handled
knife on which is the following inscription:
knife used by Gen. E. A. Wimberly dur
ing the Revolutionary war" The knife
was presented by the late Mrs. Sarah E.
Jones, and its appearance certainly bears
out the statement that it was used in the
revolutionary war.

Some weeks ago there was registered at
the Exchange Hotel a Mrs. Annie Row
land. She will be remembered by some of
our people as aristocratic In bearing, with
hair tinged slightly with gray aud with a
face bearing the stamp of culture and re-
finement She had companion, Miss
Lizzie Kistler, whose parents reside IN the
Mahoning Valley and while here they
lived in stYle and aifluence. shortly after
her departure a detective arrived here,
Charley Aahon by name, a member of the
metropolitan force of Washington. He
was accompanied by Mr.. Hoy. Together
they traced the woman TO Minneapolis,
MINI, after leaving here, where she was
arrested on the charge of embezzling $4,000
from the private sanitorium of DR.. w. A.
Hammond, in Washington city.
Miss Kistler has relatives in Minneapolis,
and il was for that reason that they went
that direction. She made Mrs. Rowland's
acquaintance while the latter was matron
Of the Sheltering Arms in Philadelphia.
Upon arriving in that city they repaired 10
the residence of Miss Mary A. Kistler, the
widow of Daniel Kistler, 523 Lyndale ave-
nue.. A few days after their arrival Mrs.
Rowland secured position as nurse, As
Highland avenue, where she was arrested.
Mrs. Rowland was well and fayorably
known in Pennsylvania, and was highly
recommended TO DIR. Hammond by Mrs.
DR.. Abbey, of the Sheltering Arms. Phila-
delphia, and DR.. Chase, of the Norristown
Insane Asylum. Mrs. Rowland was un'
willlng.to make any statement for publiea
tion, but insisted upon her innocence

Beyond question the best game of ball
eyer played here was between Lansford and
Lehighton which ended with score of . Ia
o in favor OF the visitors. Up TO the Sth
inning one run had only been scored when
errors on the part of the home team gave
them the score above Eoted. The game
was quietly played and watched with much
interest by four or five hundred spectators.

on account of errors in the last game. The
condition of left field is not the best and his

Sharp, of Lansford, can't play much
ball, but he's worker and has mortgage
