INTERESTING RESULT
OF RAOIUM EXPERIMENT
Form of Life Created by Tests Made
by Butler Burke, of Cambridge
University.

rs radium q life producer?" is the in
teresting question discussed by Consul
Mahin, at Nottingham, England, in a
report TO the State Department. De-
scribing experiments made by Butler
Burke, at Cambridge University. he
says
He steriIized some gelatin, deprived it
of every vestige and sign Of life. then
into it he placed some fragments Of
radium. According to Mr.. Burke. in a
few days, something like tiny growths
appeared. which, when scTutiniZed under
the microscope, We're not unlike bac-
teriaI growths-that is to say the radium
appeared to have been influential IN Gre
ating form OF life where there had
hitherto been no life.
Mr.. Burke then made the experiment
with greater deliberation and more care
to avoid sources OF error. Tiny growths
again appeared. They were examined
by Prof Sims Woodhead, among others,
and though Prof. Woodhead has de-
cIded that they are not bacteria, they
seemed to have some of the character
istics of living things. They do not
grow to q size greater than the sixty
thousandth part of an inch.
When they reach their greatest di-
mension they split. When portions Of
the growth are removed from the in
fiuenCe Of the radium and placed in new
gelatinous matter, these portions con-
tiuue TO grow There may be some
fatal flaw in Mr.. Burke's precautions
against error, but his experiments are
deeply interesting

Of Burning Tabernacle and Shoot
ing WorshipeTs.

AsHEVILLE. n c.. July 22-Marlc
RENO, Harley RENO, Harley Williams.
and P B. Phillips. four prominent and
wealthy citizens of Canton. have been
arrested on charges of burning the
Holiness Religion Tabernacle at that
place and melting a movement to drive
the Holiness sect out OF the town
Threats against the Holiness congre-
cation resulted in the placing Of a
guard about the tabernacle every night,
and when the attacking party made its
appearance, composed of leading citi-
Zcns, battle took place, in which
many shots were fired.
Thomas PRESLEY, one of the Holiness
leaders. was shot in the side. The Rev.
Samuel Founders. a Holiness preacher,
was also shot.
Many warrants have been sworn out
for those who are believed to be i'm
plicated in the affair. The presence Of
the Holiness sect in Canton was OBJ
jectionable TO most OF the people Of
the town.
