Harrisburg, Pa, June 4.-The nomina-
ton Of eX-State Senator Henry II. Cum
ings, Of Tidioute, for state treasurer. and
the Endorsement Of United States Senator
Knox for President will probably be the
net result Of Thursdays Republican State
convention. There seems to be no doubt
Of the selection of Cummings for treas

date and is the choice Of many of the
party leaders.
Congressman James Francis Burke. Of
Pittsburg, is here looking after the inter
ests of Senator Knox. who has decided tc
remain away from Harrisburg during the
convention. Mir Burke has headquarters
at the LOchiel Hotel. and from what he
can learn there is no doubt but that the
convention will indorse the junior sena-
tor and pledge him the support of the
Pennsylvania delegation TO the next Re
publican national convention.
The State convention will meet at 10
o'clock Thursday morning in the Lyceum
Theater. and the only Office for which

Harrisburg. Pa. June Capt. c. .. F.
Chandler, Of the United States Signal
Corps. and his companions. }. c. Mccoy
and Leo Stevens, Of New York. ended
their balloon trip this afternoon at 5:i5
o'clock at Linglestown. nine miles north
east of here. The trip which covered 40
miles. required hours and 81 minutes.
The balioonists maintained an average
height Of 4.5o9 feet above the EARTH and
at times went as high as a mile and
half Harrisburg was the first place that
was recognized after leaving Washington.
After leaving on their tour the aero
nauts encountered cloudy weather and
ran through dense clouds. a steady wind
from the south drove the big balloon al
most due north.
Capt Chandler In speaking Of his ex-
periences. said this evening:
I'VE We're simply on a pleasure trip. and
everything came of without accident
We had a steady breeze back Of us that
impelled us along as fast as the average
train of cars.
Into Adverse Currents.
Now and then We ran into currents
OF air that shifted as for a time 10 the
northeast or northwest. but We kept pret-
ty steadily on a straight line. We passed
over a city which va knew later % be
York. but We could not get our bearings
until We were near Harrisburg. which
we located by the curves OF the Susque-
hanna River and the four bridges"
When the balloon passed this city ii
was a mile and a half high. and attracted
great attention. People quit work and
crowded into the streets. and a few auto
mobiles followed its course. The balloon
shortly after began its descent and came
down IN the fields Of a farm owned by
Jacob Schriycr, on the slopes Of the Blue
Mountains

The course the balloon followed was
almost along the banks Of the Susque-
hanna River. but the river was not seen
until this city was neared. In speaking
of the success Of the trip Mr.. Stevens.

Corps. and who has made many similar
ascensions. said that the test was al
that had been looked for.

1t was shortly after / o'clock yesterday
afternoon when the big gas bag asceuded
from Twelfth and NJ streets southeast
II was soon a mere speck in the heavens
to the naked eye.
The ascension was the maiden trip Of
the new balloon just recently completed
for the department The trip was TO try

worked successfully, and to decide if the
style and type We're those best suited for
the Signal Corps. The sphere is fifty

Of 7S,o00 cubic feet Of gas
The great bag was inflated early in the
morning. Crowds assembled by 10 o'clock.

there were perhaps 1000 spectators to
cheer the aeronauts.
The War Department wos represented

Before the balloon was released Capt

explained that il was the intention OF the
aeronauts TO follow the course of the

to enable them To pack the balloon for

When the signal was given to cut away
the ropes the balloon swept away in a
northwesterly direction, her basket so
low that il collided with a fence post. bur
without inficting injury. The aeronauts
evidently saw they had taken aboard too
much sand ballast. and commenced pour
ing it over the side of the basket in a few
minutes the effect was apparent in the
gradual ascension of the balloon
It rose several hundred feet. and seemed
to strike quieter atmosphere. for it

Chicago. Sept. 233-In a heroic eff

the enormous loss of economic pow

women. .~.-'
"My mission in the United States
is to sound emigrated Norwegians
as to their desire to return to Nor

that most Norwegians are happy in
their adopted country and will new
err return, no matter what induce
ments their fatherland may be able
to offer them. But there is a large
number of Norsemen in America who
would return ii assured of equally
good economic and social conditions
in the land of their birth. 1t is to
| this class of people that my appeal
mainly will be made. ..s.
cit is absolutely essential to the
life and continued prosperity of Nor

that as many as possible return, car
