A MINERAL GLow-wORM.
One of the Curious Properties Of the
straightforward ncau-r-
81 Rays.

In n recent lecture ON "I,ndium and
he Bcqucrel Rays" Prof. Mic,hc stat
cd that the Iicqucrcl rays, contrary to
the established law Of the conservn-
tion of energy. produce light without
1sing any Of their reproductive force.
This curious quality Is inherent In
the urar and even more markedly IN
the polonium invented by the Polish
scientist CURE. II exists similarly In
the radium. rs Prof. Micthe demon
stratcd, writesn Berlin correspondent.
Recent discoveries have tended Ia the
same result In nantes for incnndes-
cent lights. or rather with the rare
earth thorium. which ~ used IN their
manufacture. II nny os these sub
| stances are incloscd In lead and
brought into proximity with bars OF
metal the latter give forth light. No
%dimunition of light occurs. for the
Bequerel rays have functioned for Ave
years without the slightest abatement
oil power.
Prof. Miethc took half n gram from
n mass Of 100 grams extracted from
n bituminous substance. This he calls
the radium. Its lighting power %
small. only i-650 Of that Of nm ordinary
wax candle. 1t IL In fact n sort ~
mineral g~low-worm, and the transfer
ence OF the lighi-giving power In
termed "~radioactivc effect"
The Bcqucrel rays are unfit for phys
icnl research. because they not only
penetrate the flesh but the bones also,
thus differing from the Roentgen rays.
For practical purposes the discovery
Of the radium Is admitted to he OF
little value. II is too expensive. a SIN
gle gram costing about e50O. II may.
however, later on he produced from

RIG.

In this position the upper part Of the
sod will not decay. but will keep on
growing. sending up shoots between
the burrows. TO the annoyance of the
cultivntor. With burrows set like
those In Fig. 1. there is a constant
falling back into the furrow after the
pillow has passed, which makes ex-
cccdingly bad work.
The burrows In Figs. 2 and , are
well turned and the sod will be en-.
tirely covered when the harrow has
passed over the land. Fig. , shows
how shnllower blowing permits u
more complete turning of the sod.
But shallow blowing OF sod IL not
generally desirable. especially II

A good deal depends upon the plow.

A NASTY FIRE
At the Plant of the Mountain state
Electrical Company, Yesterday


At the Plant of the Mountain state
Electrical Company, Yesterday
Afternoon.
About four O'Clock yesterday after
noon, while employees of the Mountain
State Electric Company at So Twelfth
street were at work in the basement
cooling some States for junction boxes
with beeswax, the liquid wax suddenly
caught fire from the gas stove ON which
1T was sitting.
The employees made desperate efforts
to extinguish the flames. first by throw
ing water on the burning dish of wax
and afterward by throwing their coats
over the pan. Despite their efforts the
flames quickly spread to the wood work
of the air shaft between the Electric
Company's building and the Opera
House, and in marvelously short space
Of time reached the roof of the COM
pany's building.
AN alarm had meantime been rung
in, after some difficulty in finding the
key, and the Chemical Company was
soon on the ground and quickly got a
stream from their engine on the flames
The fire was soon under control, but
owing to the difficulties of the situa-
ton it was some time before the flames
were entirely extinguished.
But comparatively little damage was
done to the stock of the Electric Com
paIy, as fortunately, the fire was con-
fined almost entirely to the light shaft.
Windows in the Opera House block
| were broken by the heat and all the
woodwork of the shaft badly charred.
But for the prompt and vigorous ac-
ton Of the fire department, a most SER
ious and disastrous fire would have re-
suited.
The Electric Company was insured
in various companies, some of whose
| representatives were promptly on the
ground after the fire broke out.
| The loss will be but a few hundred
dollars.
