HEIGHT Of AURORA
BEING MEASURED
Northern Lights Now Under
Closest Scrutiny Ever
Given.

BY the Associated Press.
The Northern Lights are now under
the closest scrutiny to which they have
ever been subjected.
Hoping to obtain more definite in
formation on the height of the aurora
as an aid in calculating the height
and composition of the atmosphere,
meteorologists taking part in the sec
ond international polar year are COM
bining the arts of photography and
radio.
Representatives of the Weather
Bureau have set up special cameras
at two stations in Alaska-Point Bar
row and Nome. These stations, to-
established by the Carnegie Institu-
ton of Washington. will be in COM
munication by radio at all times.
Work for Camera.
When an aurora is sighted. the
cameras will be focused on certain
selected star and all will be snapped
simultaneously. The Army Signal
Corps, which operates the Government
radio communication in Alaska will
give the signals for taking the pic
lures and as many as possible of these
synchronized photographs will be
made.
Meteorologists, using these photo
graphs and the star charts, viii be
able to compute the height Of the
aurora from its position with reference
to the selected star at the three OBJ
servation points.

vided in Alaska for these calculations

Life, DEATH
Salvation
and the
Black Hand
in a Story OF

-H1S concerns Catholic priest and
Philadelphia cop, and what happened
to them in Camden, N j. It's only
fair to tell you that right away. It's
no attempt to do anything except to
tell you story about two men who
finished strong, and crowding each other for
the rail.
The priest was an Italian, a Father Tomaso
Camagno. He was rs years old, small, and
pale, and thin.
His parishioners regarded him as too stern
too severe; even the old ladies didn't like him.
Had he made any jokes, they would have been
feeble ones: his brothers of the cloth did not
consider him clever or learned He at
tached to the Church of ST. Dominic in the
Italian quarter in Camden.
The Philadelphia cop went to Camden on
purpose; he wasn't sent there. James Blake
had served for good few years in precinct
which is highly educational-Tenth street and
Buttonwood. They promoted him to plain
clothes probably upon the theory that Blake
would still look like cop even If he should
take to wearing flower in his hair.
Now it's very nice for a detective to have
q specially. Mr.. Blake's line was the Black
Hand, and now and again he made little trips
to Elizabeth and Newark, and Camden, and
other ferryboat towns.
ONE night when Father Camagno read
~ ing MS deVotlonS In the rectory OF ST.
Dominics. the housekeeper disturbed him. A
woman was outside, an Italian woman with a
shawl over her head, and she was moaning and
crying and asking for priest.
Father Camagno put down his book, and
went out to her and she fell on her knees and
kissed his sleeve, and began to tell him about
her husband. Father Camagno gathered at
last that her husband was dying.
Where is hep" he asked.
She peered up at him. "At Cortesis," she
muttered. AT the house of Cortesi, in the
marshes"
Father Camagno started. He had heard
things about Contests hotel, and he had no
wish to be there at O'Clock in the evening.
Your husband Is dying?" he asked. She
shuddered and her head bobbed up and down.
| He has been stabbed?"
mo, my father. He has been shot," she
said and In another moment she was in the
throes of hysteria.
Father Camagno left her to the housekeeper.
He went to the chapel and made his prepara-
tions. Then he put on his shabby black hat

IT can't help that. If I am shot, am shot.
My duty is in that house in Contests hotel.
While I am wasting time arguing with you
here, a man, perhaps several men, are losing
their immortal souls. Let me pass"
The cop looked at him and muttered some
thing. 1t sounded like q curse. Father
Camagnos eyes blazed.
II am carrying the Blessed Sacrament" he
said God will not let me die until give it
to those dying men. Get out Of my way"
