REMARKABLE
LECTURE
DELIVERED At ST. LOUIS TO

BY DR.. RUTHERFORD
Of Montreal, Canada, on Radium
and Radio Activity.

Tomorrow the Chemical Society In

yards, by special invitation. In the

exposition officials and shown over
the grounds / am taking it all in

This evening in the Auditorium of
Central high school DIR. f. Ruther-
ford Of McGill University, Montreal,
Canada, gave a most remarkable lee
ture on Radium. Many things were
shown and said which astonished the
whole audience, consisting of three
thousand scientific men and women.
DR.. Rutherford is authority on
radio-activity and much importance
was put upon what he said.
He first gave a brief account of
the discovery of radium which was
made by Madame Curie of France
The speaker had with him thirty mil
li9rams Of the precious metal, which
was shown to emit both light and
heat By means Of an instrument
called the spinthoriscope, one may
actually see the effect of the emana-
tions from this metal. which consist
in a constant going off of its atoms.
These emanations ere know nto nm
dergo at least four changes before
resulting in their final products.
The changes consist in what is
called the explosion of the atoms. 1t
has been demonstrated that polo
MUM and helium results from these
changes.
Radiographs may be produced by
the radiations from this metal but
they are not so powerful in this re-
spect as the Roentgen Rays.
Radium not only gives off light but
also heat, and from careful expert
ments it is estimated that a pound of
radium, if there was so much in the
world, would emit enough heat to
produce ten thousand horse power for
one year. @saF II
The speaker referred to the proba-
BILE use Of of radium in surgery but at
present nothing in that regard has
been satisfactorily established.
One of the most beautiful things
about a new discovery is that it ex-
plains more clearly long existing phe-
1t has long been an excepted the
DRY that the heat Of the sun is kept
up by its constant contraction and it
has been estimated by Lord Kelvin
that If this contraction goes on at the
present rate we will continue to re-
ceive light and heat from the sun for
sixty million years. Those versed in
the power Of radium, however, say
that we need no longer accept the
theory OF Kelvin for if three parts
to every ten million Of the suns sub
stance were radium the light and heat
which we now receive from it would
be easily accounted for. As to the
presence of this amount of radium in
the sun there can be but little doubt
since the properties and emanations,
products of the metal are, being un-
derstood. ". A. Fiske.

Purifying the Morals of the Town.

Reno is a seething, bubbling cauldron
of excitement these days. The move
ment started by the Observer a few
weeks ago to purify the morals of the
town is bearing rich fruit. The better
element is waking up to the necessities
OF the case and it won't be many weeks
before Reno will be purged of many of
its evils. AS a result of what has already
been done, Sheriff Hayes has notified the
proprietors of saloons and gambling
houses to close their places at II O'Clock
at night under penalty of prosecution
for violating the early closing law. Sen
ator Newlands, Mayor Turrittin and the
City Council have taken decided stands

O'DOan a ScOundreI.

Dan O'Doan, who was arrested at
FalIon on a charge of bigamy, is now
confined in the jail at Reno, being un-
able to raise the $4,000 bonds under
which he is held. Later details show
MIN to be a scoundrel, and the evidence
against him is conclusive. O'Doan Wis
tied his first wife in Corinne, Utah, last
November, and stayed a month. He has
five children by his first wife-the eldest
aged ID aid the youngest one year and a
hall. His first wife has a parcel OF letters
signed with his name and headed "dear
wife" The people of Fallon are greatly
incensed over his ~actions in marrying an
innocent girl while he had a wifein Utah,
and they will see that he is severely pun
ished for his crime.

Short Platforms.

Really it would be refreshing il both
great political parties would boil their
platforms down to a few short para
graphs. Something about like the space
taken by the Ten Commandments ought
to be sufficient to make all promises and
enumerate the sins of the other party.
Voters might read the platforms if so
shortened, and would come nearer be-
lieving them in good faith. OF all the
denominations is a long-winded party
platform Grass Valley, Cal, Union.
