BIG AUDIENCE
HEAR LECTURE
Henry Nicely on ''AeropIanes'
at Public Library.

The third of a series of interest
ing and educating lectures given UNI
der the auspices of the Public LII
brary management in the library
auditorium Saturday night attracted
a crowd that almost taxed the ca
pacity of the auditorium. Henry
M. Nicely one of the foremost stu
dents on a~eroplanes and aerial nav
igation In the country, gave a talk
on "Aeroplanes-Why and How
They Fly" He displayed working
models of the best known types of
aeroplanes and showed lantern
slides of various makes of machines
In flight.
The discourse was concluded to be
the most interesting and educational
yet given in the library building.
The speaker by means of his almost
unlimited knowledge of air craft
told of their workings, on the
ground and in the air. How they
rose, how controlled and how they
glide to earth again was explained.
He talked in clear and simple terms
so that his auditors, among whom
were several children, could thor
.oughly understand him.
The speaker declared at the start
that really little was known about
air craft. He explained the simple
principles upon which aeroplanes
fly, explained "details on planes
which have two big planes, and
monoplans, which have but one
main plane. He went into such de-
tails as to the workings of ~eleyating
control, rudder, ailerons and engine
control, etc. An imaginary flight
was made, whereby Mr.. Nicely
seated his audience in an imaginary
machine, set the ~propellers whiz-
zing and flew into the sky. He
gave graphic descriptions telling OF
every step until the machine landed
upon 10 t fhsnee gFRallgn fffasaa aaahInowed a num-
Der of famous birdmen in intimate
poses and showed manipulations Of
gliders and other engineless air de-
vices. The dangers of aviation were
lastly taken up and the speaker told.
of a number of accidents in which
world-famed aviators had been
killed.

FIGHTING FISH.
In the Rage of Battle They Turn From
Dull to Brilliant Coiora.

In the Rage of Battle They Turn From
Dull to Brilliant CoIors.
In the gardens of Singapore it Is the
custom to stock the ponds with ali
of queer fishes. many Of them
Of the fighting variety so dear to the
heart Of the orientals. This species OF
fish is so combative that it is only nee
essary to place two OF them neal each
other, like lighting cocks, and perhaps
to i~rritate them q little to bring on a
lively conflict.
They at once charge each other with
fins erect, at the same time changing
color in their excitement from the dull
est OF gray greens to brilliant reds and
blues. Indeed, confinement In close
quarters is not needed to arouse theil
connbative propensities.
Place two glass Jars close together
with n of these lighting fish in eacf
and they will at ono swim round and
endeavor to charge each other through
the inferposed glass.
Even a single fish seeing himself re
fleeted In a mirror will dart at hi:
own image and, irritated all the more
by his failure to reach his supposed
enemy, will assume the most brillian'
hues. Seeing his reflected ~antagonis'
do the same, he viii redoubIe his eff
forts to reach him.-Exchange.

WEIGHED THE ELEPHANT.
a Problem Which a Hindu Prince Wa
Able to Solve.

Able to solve.
There Is a story often told IN India
of Shajee, a Hindu prince, who on a
certain occasion showed himself al
most as clever as Archimedes.-
A high official had made a VOW that
he would distribute to the poor the
weight of his own elephant In silver
money. But the great difficulty tina
at first presented itself was the mod,
of a~scertaining what this weight real
ly was. Ali the learned and clever
men of the court seemed to have en-
deayored In vain to construct a ma
chine of sufficient power to weigh the
elephant.
At length Shajee came forward and
suggested q plan which was simple
and yet ingenious In the highest de
e- ne s@asod tho unwieldy animal
to be conducted along a stage special.
Iy made for the purpose by the water
side into a fiat bottomed boat, Then,
having marked on the boat the height
to which the water reached after the
elephant had weighed it down, the
latter was taken out and stones sub.
stituted IN sufficient quantity to hold
the boat to the same line. THE stones
were then taken to the scales, and
thus, to the amazement OF the court
was aseertained the true weight OF
the eiephant.-Exchange.

Laughter.

Laughter, while it lasts, slackens
and embraces the mind, weakens the
faculties and cause a kind OF remisg-
ness and dissolution In all the powers
of the soul, and thus far 1t may be
looked upon as a weakness In the com
position of human nature. But if we
consider the frequent reiiefs we re-
ceive from 1t and how often 1t breaks
the gloom which is apt to depress the
mind and damp our spirits with tran
silent unexpected CLEANS of Joy. one
would take care not to grow too wise
for SO great a pleasure Of life.-Addl-
