united to that growing metropolis, and
the business men of both cities should
appeal to the Northern Pacific to af-
ford better car service between the two
cities. At the present time it takes
nearly as long to go from Pasco to
Walla Walla, distance of "a miles,
as it does to go from Seattle to Pasco,
distance of $50 miles. There should
be daily passenger train from Pasco
to Wala Walla in place of a mixed
freight train humping along and stop
ping an hour at every station. The
rich and populous counties of Walla

increasing people demand and deserve
Etter service to reach the cities OF

CLOCK WILL RUN $4,000 YEARS.

7T CLOCK that will run for 10000
IL years without winding is the latest
use to which that wonderful sub
stance, radium, has been applied. says
the London Sphere.
The instruments, which are being
sold at $50 each, are the invention OF
II. G. Strut and have been put
into practicable form by W. H Martin
dale, a we'll known clockmaker of New
Cavendish street.
The new invention is very simple in
construction. One twelfth of grain OF
radium is suspended over a small cleo,
troscope consisting of two thin strips
Of silver. These. being charged with
electricity or radio-activity from the
radium, move apart until they touch
the sides of the vacuum tube in which
they are fixed. There they communi-
cate their charge to an aluminium wire
which rings a bell, and being dis
charged fall together again to repeat
the process indefinitely.
The ringing of the bell occurs with
such unvarying regularity that the
making of the instrument into time
recorder is but a matter of detail.
At present the radium clock Is made
in two forms, one for the magic lantern,
the other for the lecture desk to demon
strate the peculiar powers of radium.
A considerable number of these clocks
have already been sold and Mr.. Martin
dale is confident that radium will soon
have an extended commercial use.
Sir William Ramsay strongly advises
that the Government be empowered to
send out experts to Cornwall. where
radium has been found, as the supply
Of the wonderful substance, which is
daily finding new uses, is practically
exhausted in England-while Austria,
the only country where radium is found
in quantities. has forbidden the export
of 1t. An ounce of radium is at present
worth 100000.
"Radium is almost priceless now"
said Sir William. for the simple reason

would have thought of a caravan in
the African desert, the armed escort In
FROM and at the sides, the negro team
sters above and the crowd of bowling
street Arabs around and behind adding
to the verisimiltude.
Even as he looked the resemblance in
creased. More Arabs appeared here and
there, and a stone or two was thrown. A
negro pulled out revolver and pointed 1t
in the direction in which the stones had
come. This was the signal for bitter re-
Wiling on the part of the gathering mob,
and Marty pushed his way forward.
With the revilfng came more stones. and
the frightened horses began to prance.
The colored teamster lost his head and
fred. A man fell on the pavement--an in
nocent spectator, as Marty saw. But
volley of stones answered the pistol shot,
one of them hitting the weapon fairly
and knocking it from the negro's hand.
Marty was a little in advance and was
among those who seemingly pulled the
badly scared and desperate man from his
seat. He came down with a drawn
knife in his bleeding hand. and vecious
cut at the crowd was caught by Marty
on the left arm. from which the blood
began to squirt on the instant.
''You fooln' said Marty, catching the
mans armed hand. Pm an officer of the
law. Here. get behind mel" A dexterous
wrench sent the knife Gathering to the
stones of the street, and the mob closed
In.
Marty had no weapon but his self-cock
ing, hammerless revolver, and he drew
it-not, however, to shoot, but as club
for his hand. The negro behind him,
mad with fright and pain. struck at him
again and again. For long minute, un-
til his brother officers could rescue him
and the negro, Marty submitted to the
angry attack from the rear in order to
ward off the still more angry attack in
front. His fellows reached him just in
time to keep the negro who had recov-
cred his knife. from giving him a fatal
blow.
The wagon took Marty to the hospital,
his face battered and his neck and
shoulders a mass of bruises. And there
beside him you may see of afternoons

lice force itself she is the only person IN
Chicago who knows Martin Marrigan Is
