AIrshIpe Now ReaIIx Practical.

Two recent inventions affecting air
ships promise to make the conquest Of
the air an actuality. Heretofore the ex-
pansion and contraction Of the gas bag
of dirgibIes by the action of heat and
cold have rendered long voyages impos-
sible because to lower a balloon in the
heat of the day meant a loss OF gas
and to elevate it during the night meant
loss of ballast. The new machine
projected will have a gas bag that will
neither expand or contract. consequently
the ship can choose any elevation des-
ired for navigation without the loss Of
gas or ballast. The bag is made per
fectly gas tight and is surrounded by a
steel wire envelope that renders it rigid
at all times. Steel vessels or baloonets
placed under the bag are pumped full Of
compressed air for ballast. To rise in
the air, all that is necessary it to let
out air and to lower the machine, to
pump in more air.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAs DOZENS

on last Thursday evening there was
something doing every minute during
the convention of the lodge. If you
are in doubt ask Vredenburgh or Pat
rick Ryan.
The goat was in splendid FORM having
been in training under the care of DR..
Zeller and James Boutwell, whose skill
as goat trainers was manifest during
the evening The subject of goat rid
ing is a tender one for vredenburgh
and we would ask our. readers to have
compassion on the popular jeweler and
evade all mention of the subject. As
a goat rider he is not exactly a sue
cess and yet he is not entirely failure
but he is an interesting "cuss'' when
in the heat of the contest.
Patsey Ryan is a fighter. and dares the
goat to tumble him off. When one sees
Patsey's thumbs twitching there is
something, brewing. Ask him all about
it and he will unbosom himself with the
whole story. Was it not for Boutwell,
throwing oil on the troubled waters and
canning the storm of Indignation at the
goat, the tragedy of last Thursday eve
ming might have been awful. as it was,
it was bIoodless but not calm. Vreden-
DurSn was IN the HlluSl VI the SUI III
for an hour and during the while won
dered if the facts stated were as true
as they seemed to be for it was ap-
parent the boys had zone on him" and
he could not tell where they got hold
of the brute. He has one good quality
he is a wise guy who can let the others
do the talking, while he saws wood and
looks wise Under such circumstances
no one can tell how much or how little
he knows.
Ryan is under a debt of gratitude to
Pastor Willard H. Roots for gentle min
istrations during the siege of buck and
wing riding he was subjected to. Mr..
Roots held the horns while Patsey dis
mounted.
There are a host Of daring victims
waiting at the portals of the lodge to
try their skill with the animal, for it is
a fact that Delos Lodge No. 2S is the
most prosperous and thriving lodge in
the state.

pears at the opera house on March 27,
promises to be a strong number on
the lecture course. For an evening of
music and mirth it will be haro to beat.
Mr. Weeks and his company come high
ly endorsed by all the leading news

of rare fun.

William ]. Bryan was entertained by
the Binghamton Press Club of Bingham
ton, N. Y recently where he was in
troduced to some two hundred members
including Edwin r. Weeks, an honorary
member, whose impersonation Of Mr..
Bryan is well known.
After some platform stories had been
told Mr.. Bryan evidenced a desiif TO
know something about this impersona-
ton of himself.
Mr. Weeks explained that he gave a
slightly exaggerated Characterization =
that is, he made up to look as the car
toonists pictured the Nebraska orator.
POSSIBLY, he said, that is why a Bing-
hamton woman had said to Mr.. Weeks,
after hearing his impersonation and see
ing Bryan: 'Why. you look more like
Mr. Bryan than Bryan does himself"
"Oh. that's nothing" I" MIR. Bryan laugh
ingly replied, 'even q niger waiter in
Buffalo impersonates me. First blood
for the Commoner
Il imagine it takes a waiter to really
impersonate you we'll" was the counter
thrust Honors even.
when did you first give this imper-
sonatioa?" questioned Mr.. Bryan.
During the campaign when you first
ran for president" was the reply.
"Well, that may account for it all.
said the advocate of Government Owner
ship, "for if people really thought you
were me 1t is no wonder that was de-
feated -
Mr. Weeks clubmates laughed heart
lily and declared that this round had
been won by Mr.. Bryan.
We'll" replied the Impersonator, eau
tiousiy sparing for an opening. IF l am
really the cause of your defeat for a
selfish reason l am glad of it. for. had
you been elected, you would now be de-
tanned at Washington in your official
and we should not have the
