liquid. So wonderful is this element given to the
world by Madame Curie that the most brilliant scien
tifc investigators both here and abroad putting
forth the greatest systematized efforts discover

denied that radum has extraordinary possibilities.
1t is highly luminous that print be read by its
light, and, curiousy enough, it possesses the power
of importing its own luminosity to other bodies
which in their normal state quite inactive So
powerful is the Photographic action of radium that
it is capable of penetrating black paper and other
opaque objects readily as sunlight passes through
clear glass. Held against the temple Of blind
man. radum will so effect the retna that the sensa-
ton of light is produced. Applied TO the nervecen-
tiers Of small animals the rays parayze and ulti-
matey kill AS this deadly effect can be produced
with minute speck, it can easily be understood
that radum in any quantity would be disastrous to
human beings Professor Curie even asserts that he
would not venture into a containing two or
three pounds of the element for fear that his
sight would de destroyed his skin burnt and pos
siby he would be fatally stricken Radium destroys
the terminating power of seeds, kills the larvae of
butterflies and has such bactericdal effect that 1t
has been used to good purpose III the treatment OF
skin diseases and even in cancer. It's power OF
causing other bodies to become luminous renders
it invaluable in the testing of precious stones. BY
its aid diamonds rendered phosphorescent and
thus be readily distinguished from paste nllta-
tons which are sensitive to the rays. Recent
writer's on the subject have gone SO far as TO say
that pound of radum uncontrolled would ami
hilate the earth, that in smaller portions 1t would
aid in the transmutation of metals that it may solve
the problem of light without heat perfect wireless
communication and achieve possibilities still be-
yond the horizon of knowledge. Many hypothe-
ses have been advanced to explain the wonderful
manifestations of radium 1t is considered certain

subdivision of matter, projected incessantly by the
substance itself with speed of at least one hundred

tically eternal energy in expelling stream Of frag

THE WAYS IN WHICH WICHITA WAKES.
Nj. M. MUKD c X, EDIT o r.

Wichita is growing more rapidly than any city or
town in the state. 1t is growing faster than any
city of like or greater size, growing in population,
III new buildings and in business. The growth OF
the resident sections is a matter of establishment
to its own citizens With each year there is
noticeable improvement in the style and cost OF
her new homes and in the permanency Of her new
business edifces. The first more modern, and
the last more solid and costly. AS all the new
residences are no sooner completed than they are
occupied the population is necessarily rapidly in
creasing With the coming of the cooler autumn
DAYS there is no cessation in the erection Of new
homes many Of them commodious and fine archi-
tectural and all of them supplied with modern con-
veniences. What with these and its many schools
and numerous churches, its shaded streets and fine
parks and drives Wichita in being destined to be
the model city of Kansas is altogether a satisfactory
and delightful place in which to live

MINISTER'S AND sPEcuLATtoNs.

furry in the recent meeting of Methodist
conference in Illinois caused by a resolution
directing close watch to be kept on supernumerary
ministers ordained without charges, to see that
they do not engage in the promotion of unsound
business enterprises. Charges were made that some
mon whom the conference carries on its list had
MADE themselves liable to criticism in this
respect Whether not the charge be true in this
particular case it is the talk Of the business
community that ministers of various demon
irations too ready to lend their names and in
iuence to investment schemes that speculative
and unsafe Ministerial influence attracts to these
enterprises the small savings of persons who sup
pose they are investing in securities that I'M
usually sound and profitable, only to find when the
crash that the doctors Of divinity who vouch
ed for the company and lent their names directors
disclam all responsibility for loss. Every time this
happens the cause of religion loses more than the
paltry dollars which the minister's price for the
sale of his good ever make good.

wIcHlTA AND COAL PROBLEM.

The Kansas State Board of Railway Commits
soners are to meet in the city council chamber Of
Wichita on Wednesday next, the 4th of November.
1t is not only urged but will be duty that every
large consumer of coal owes himself to be present
at the conference. The testimony to be submitted
to the commission will not be of hearsay conjectur
al or hypothetical Of character but will be the truth,
and facts as taken from the records of every day
transactions the freight rate schedules Of the
railways. This testimony must be corroborated by
citizens interested, by the consumers themselves.
When the Interstate Railway Commerce Commits
sions held their meeting here several months ago,
there seemed an indifference upon the part of ship
pers most interested in the result great many
points, which the commission desired verified by
Individual citizen testimony fell down because of the
ncn-presence and want of interest upon the part of
those really the most directly concerned. The coun-
eli chamber next Wednesday should be crowded
with Wichita coal consumers and with business
men, and for very evident reasons.
The heaviest handicap to the rapid growth and
future greatness Of this city today, a manufac-
turing center, which shall equal its commercial inn
pCrtdnce ana advantage OF lOcduOu Is cheap SCSdl-
ing fuel. Where commerce hourishes their manu-
features should thrive. Manufactures mean added
employment population, homes and prosperity.
Estimated by either her commercial tonnage or
ccaI consumption and Wichita does not receive the
coal rates to which she is entitled. Her freight
ccalate is in of that charged small villages
a hundred miles out on the prairies west of this
point Wichita pays something like twice the ton
per mile from the same mines for coal that is paid
by Kansas City and other Missouri river towns.
With an equitable coalrate twenty thousand barrels
of -four would be shipped from this city, per day,
where but two or three are now shipped. With
reasonably cheap steaming fuel the output of
number of factories would be increased and many
new manufacturing interests added. At the same
rate per per mile accorded other cities of WITCH
itas population and railway facilities the coal ton
mage would be doubled and quadrupled in the short
est time In brief the Eagle deems, as do observant
business men generally esteem, the fuel problem of
dominant Importance to the city's present welfare
and future importance.

THE OLD WOMAN AS THE NEW WOMAN.


The Chinese who claims to be the Oldest
civilized woman earth in history but who has
had fewer privileges than any other nationality of
women seems to be catching TO the woman
spirit of the age. The native Chinese women of
New York and Boston have organized the Chinese
Empire Reform Society to protest against alleged
cutrages on Chinese in this country and to shake
oil the shackles of heredity and for the privilege
of wearing as big feet a Chicago woman if she be
s, constituted as TO grow them. The meeting Of
these amond-eyed daintes held in Boston.
Most Of the women had the native .'hound feet Of
their country read papers and did many other things
that cultured clubwomen do Several prominent
and fashionable American women and professional
folk were present and it announced that branch
societies Of this reform society will organized in
the leading cities of the country. Why should not
the Chinese support literary clubs as well as other
"lubabe folks?
