Human Hearts

If there is any virtue in newspaper
commendation, and if the endorse
mept of the public at large, for the
past eight years, is to be taken as a
criterion, then Human Hearts
which will be presented here Saturday
April IS, is certainly entitled to take
rank as the Great American Drama
During the many years that 'Human
Hearts has been presented in this
country, the praise accorded it by
newspaper critics and the general pub
lie has been universal. There have
been no dissenting voices; the verdict
of approval has been unanimous.
Even rival managers have graciously
acknowledged that Human Hearts
is mighty good play.

RADIUM EXPERT ARRIVES
Professor E. r. Wocot of State School of Mines Reached
The City Friday Morning and has Been Maxine
Complete Examination of Mineral Water

All arrangements have been com
pleted for the lecture on radium at
the opera house Saturday night Pro-
fessor Wolcott has arrived and has
been at work making the tests, the
results of which he will announce in
his lecture.
Complete tests are to be made, in
GLIDING the water, the gases and the
deposit Thus, it is evident that
whatever trace of radio activity there
is in the waters will be brought out
and shown. Professor Wolcott has
declared that he believes the water
to contain ra6io active properties,
and through his work of yesterday
mine the exact strength of it.
Since the discovery of radum by
Nine. Curie of Paris and her hus-
banda complete change has had to
be made in the old established theo-
ries of light and heat, and the old
theory that the molecules were the
smallest of particles has been aban-
doned for the reason that radium will
give off heat and light forever with.
out diminishing in appreciable size.
The new light has been declared to
be sunshine itself, and to contain all
the properties of sunshine. Its
powers are being used in unberless
diseases with good effects, where it
was impossib BILE to secure results by
the old systems of treatment.
If Professor Wolcott establishes the

Advent of the Auto.

The Colorado Automobile company
shipped over a machine Thursday and
their representative, J. A. Carlson has
been exciting the envy of the people
of Glenwood by driving around so
noislessly the last few days. The
name of the auto is THE Cadillac
and it is certainly beauty.
Mr.. Carlson will take the machine
to Rifle and by making some test trips
to Meeker intends to prove the ability
of the machine to take the place of
the stages now in use. If they are
successful, Mr.. Harp thinks of sub
stituting them between Rifle and
Meeker, which speakes volumes for
Mr.. Harp's progressive spirit.

fact that the waters here contain
radium to an appreciable extent. it
means that Glenwood Hot Springs
has one of the richest treasures in the
world. The city will become the
Mecca for thousands of those who are
unable to find relief elsewhere, and
the growth of the city will be CORES
pondingly advanced.
Professor Wolcott is here without
compensation to himself, and inasmuch
as his expenses can be covered by an
admission fee of 25 cents, everybody
in the city ought to be present and as
many as possible from The outside.
Old prospectors have declared that
pitchblende, the radium bearing ore,
is to be found in the Grand canon
east of the city, and number of
persons have found minerals that they
have concluded was pitchblende from
the descriptions given in the papers
If it is, Professor Wolcott will make
it certain tonight by his examination.
He will test all metals handed to him
by those in the audience, without
cost to them, and it may be that some
of the ore will prove to be pitchblende.
If it should, the results can at once be
seen, not only to the lucky possessor,
but to the whole section of the coun-
try. Colorado radium is the only
radium found SO far outside of Bel
GUM, and if it should be found near
here, it will add greatly to the present
richness of the section.

The Work of Anarchists

Last Tuesday'a dastardly attempt
was made to blow up the Coryell coal
mine at New Castle and the fact that
the scheme completely failed is no
fault of the miscreants.
When Mr.. Coryell reached the mine
Wednesday morning he found one of
the rooms on fire but as there was no
draft through the room the fire had
made but little progress. A workman
named Bonto opened door TO the
room and this causing suction the
flames rushed out and burned him
quite badly.
A mule was kept in a stable in the
mine closet to the room where the fire
was started and the parties, not salts
fed with firing the mine beat this an
imal SO badly with inch gaspipe that
he could not stand up and was almost
dead when found.
The fire in the room had been care
fully started by using kindling upon
which had been poured coal oil and
powder and it was hoped by the guilty
ones that they bad made certain of
their devilish work and that both the
kindling and the mule would be en-
tirely consumed so they could spring
the old chestnut Of missed shot or
Spontaneous combustion and this
they really tried the next day but the
telltale evidences remained plainly
visible making it clear that the talk
about lawabiding citizens, concerning
which the miners have recently boast
ed 80 much is but an empty claim.
While there is a we'll grounded
supsicion as to the identity of the
criminals there is as yet no positive
proof and no arrests have been made
but the fact that union miners were
found Wednesday morning acting as
spies and waiting the approach of MIR.
Coryell and his men, does not look
we'll for the organization.

HYDE PARK,

10 the Editor of the Pioneer Express:
Dear Sir: l wish to draw the attention
OF your readers to an item that appeared
IN the Neche Chronotype of March 18th,
which. commenced as follows: "A pub
lie announcement was made for social
on March Bird to be managed in the ca
pacity of the church elders" He furth-
er soes on to say "that the building was
cold, no, light and nothing to eat" and
winds up by saying the community Join
in congratulating the elders in their mag
n'tudious endeavor to entrap such large
number of ten-cent suckers"
With regard to the above would
state that there was no announcement
made that the Hyde Park elders were
getting up social or, as the correspond.
sent to the Chronotype puts it, ito be
manag' d in the capacity of the church
elders" The elders of HYDE Park
church did not get up social of any
kind this winter nor at any other time.
The young people held social about
three weeks ago, which was great sue
cess, both socially and financially, and
the supper could not be beaten any
where.
II the correspondent wanted to bellttle
either the church or the elders he should
not have commenced by writing an item
that was q succession Of falsehoods from
beginning to end. | thought when read
It that it was written by some one who
has been backing boots or performing
some other such service in some educa-
tional institution and has heard some
Zig words uttered BY the students and
thought he would like to use them.
