SCIENTIST CURE DEAD.
Discoverer of Radium Run Over by
Wagon in Paris.

Prof. Curie, the discoverer of radium, was
run over and killed by a wagon on the Place
Dauphine, in Paris, yesterday
Prof. Curie was born in Paris on May Is,
1859. He was educated at Paris in the Sor-
bonnie. He early showed great ability in
physical sciences. and graduated with great
distinction. He was appointed to an in
structorship IN the Sorbonne, and later be-
came instructor in the School of Physics

Since 1895 he had been professor in the same
school. He published numerous articles In

the Journal of Physics and in the Annals of

He was famous throughout the world as
the joint discoverer with Nine. Curie of the
wonderful metal radium, which they OBJ
tanned from pitchblende. Radium is thought
to be an element, and has many interesting
properties. 1t maintains its temperature
above it's surroundings and emits heat with
out combustion chemical change. 1t is
enormously expensive. To procure a kilo-
gram of radium would cost 100000.

shows a decrease from the number of
bills usually returned by the grand jury
but this is probably due to the fact that

Both men started out to win, and with
great skill and science they fought. De-

Burns, and he made poor use of the
strength that has been given him. How
ever, the first fall was warmly contested.
and while Farmer Burns won, he was
often in very tight places. The crotch
and the Nelson, however, proved the
downfall of the Greek. In the second
event both men went out to win, but
Burns was again the aggressor. When he
managed to get full-Neson 1t was ap
