discussed dissensions in women's clubs are the re-
suit Of bringing women together with definite,
appealing aim. Peace will reign, she believes. when
women realize that some enc holding different
opinion from their own may be right
Mrs. Lille Devereux Blake gave some illustra-
tons Of the public disfavor with which women
clubs were regarded dozen years ago She con-
trnsted the woman's club OF to-day with the mans
club, much TO the credit OF the former. Very few
OF the mems clubs iota about improving
the mind she declared-''the bar is the great at
traction of many" Mrs. Blake approves OF the
woman's club also for the bond OF friendship that
IL establishes among the members.
Miss Mary G. Hay who likewise took part In the
open discussion, explained her idea OF club
Utopia There men and women shall sit down
together TO discuss. and the distinctly mans club
or woman's club shall be more"
Many other members agreed with the writer OF
the paper read, that their clubs beneficial.
One woman testified that she belongs TO twenty-six
clubs, and that she prefers them to the theatre.
All decided that the woman's club has a broaden

RADIUM CAUSES NOTION,
Curious apparatus to Illustrate a
Oualitu of the Ne1C Element.

Professor George B. Pegram. Of Columbia Uni

other experimenter. named Strut. which illustrates
some Of the pecuiarities of radium- Among the
different rays emitted by that substance one group
f. positively electrified and the other negatively.
BY suspending a delicate gold pendulum In a glass
vessel from which the air has been removed. it is
possible 10 bring the metal alternately under the
influence Of these rays and produce oscillation
The action in STRUTS apparatus was slow. but
Professor Pegram il able to obtain more frequent

utilized except for educational purposes but il Is
an interesting scientific curiosity. Though Pro-
lessor Pegram Is careful 20 avoid saying that 10
will run forever. he thinks II should continue
long as the store OF energy In the radium holds
out.
Sir William Crookes invented 2 somewhat sim

the physical force emitted by sunshine. To pre-
atmospheric resistance he inclosed the moving
part of his mechanism in vacuum. or as close an
