Candlepower of a Firefly's Light

From the Electrical EXperlmenter.
 Calculating the candle power of fire~ flys light is no easy matter, especially as it shows it's brightest light only when
 in flight; but William H. Pickering of the Harvard astronomical station at Man. deville Jamaica, managed to do it by comparing it with the light or certain stars. The Jamaican firefly gives brighter light than those with which we in the states are familiar and Picker ings calculations are for that of the tropical insect In recent letter to Nature he states that:
 "A great number of them fly along a neighboring road and their position can 1 be determined by their illumination Of the inclosing stone walls. Their bright ness was found to equal that of the star Canopus, which was just over the road and at rather a low altitude. Its bright
 ness was at that time equal to Orionis, the altitude of which was 40 degrees. It
 was a very clear evening, as is generally the case here so that we may raXe the
 brightness of the latter as of one magni-
 tude. The distance of the road was 17S star is equal to one candlepower at 526
 meters. If of zero magnitude the light of the firefly would therefore have been just 0.O1 of a candlepower. Being of fii st
 magnitude, it's light was 0.004 candlepower. This result is probably correct within half a magnitude or 50 per cent and consfd- ering the apparent brilliancy of the in- sect, is smaller than one would have ex- pected. The writer is not aware of any previous measures of this quantity"

POLES THANKFUL
 FOR INDEPENDENCE
Following Mass Meeting Tel egrams Are Sent to Aus
 trO-German Rulers

The Austrian and German manifestos re- earding the creation of Polish regency were discussed at a mass meeting in War saw today, after which the following tel egram was sent to Emperor William and Emperor Francis Joseph:
 Mighty Monarchs: On this day, so felici- tatious for the Polish race, when it learns that it will be free with an autonomous state it's own King and its own army, every Hberty-loving Pole is impressed with the feeling of thankfulness to those who have freed the Polish people through their good will and given to it a renewal of autonomous government. The vic tories of your invincible armies have lib- e1ated two towns equally dear to the Polish heart-Warsaw and Wilma.
 "The agreement between German and Austria Hungary with regard to the Polish question gives us an autonomous national existence, the greatest benefit for a people and also gives us the pos sibility of marching with all our forces against our traditional enemy, the Mus covite. We know that your purpose, most august Emperor, stands behind that element in this historic event Therefore, we send your majesties an expression of our gratitude and assurance that the Polish people will be able to prove faith ful to it's allies.'

start somewhere and get somewhere They are meant to carry loads. A bank account is mighty good bridge. It will tide you over many troubloui stream, and see you safely on the oth- CT side; but many men must floundcr around in the currents or diversity, tossed hither and yon, before they will acknowledge the truth and begin to get ready. If everybody did as some people do, spend the dollar as fast as it is earned, the human race would fast go to destruction
 Every man who earns should save Every woman, no matter how saee may be her lot now, should look to the future the fact and see if she were left alone could she manage single handed to make the world give her an existence.
 You cannot cross the bridge until you get there, that is certain; but you can build the bridge that you surely will need some day, and lucky for you if you have the bridge and can use + and still more lucky if it Is there ano you never need use it, but you car be safe either way.

BIG CROWDS SEE RETURNS
 ON AGE-HERALD'S SCREEN
Thousands Line Fifth Avenue and Learn of Wilson's Defeat searchlght Tells People for Miles Around
 of Hughes Victory

When the searchlight on the top of The Age-Herald building raised it's slant ing rays to an angle of 45 degrees and stopped last night, between 5000 and 10,O00 people who had stood for hours in front of The Age-Herald building watching the election returns, turned their steps home ward
 Fifth avenue, in front of The Age Herald building, and all the way from Twenty-first street to Twenty -second street, was lined early in the evening with persons eager for first returns of the {, election. The first bulletin was thrown on the screen soon after dark, and from that time on till the outcome was known they were flashed thick and fast
 Although it was a Wilson crowd which had gathered to get the returns, and not withstanding the fact that announcement was made early in the evening that Hughes had practically won. according s to New York newspapers, the thousands of Wilson men stood and waited and hoped. And when hope of victory had vanished. they stood still and waited to learn the extent of the defeat.
 By means of a. specially constructed machine, manipulated by The Age-Her- aids cartoonist, Blackman, The Age- Herald was able to give the people the results as rapidly as they were re- ceived over the wire and the telephone. The returns were written on the screen before the crowd. and many tense mo- ments ensued while the throng was waiting for the pencil to sketch the lit tie figures that old their story.
 And just to keep the crowd in the best of spirits, everything considered, Cartoonist Blackman flashed on the screen at more or less frequent inter- walls clever little cartoons drawn while
