BOTTLE OF RADIUM u.s. LOST
Physician Says the Finder Is
in Great Danger.

Paris, France.-Paris police gravely
call attention to the loss of small
bottle of salts of radium in an omni-
bus the other day.
It is asserted that the contents of
the bottle were worth $4,000 and that
they would be extremely dangerous to
any person coming into contact with
them accidentally because of their
radioactive powers. The phial was
lost by a well-known physician at a
Paris hospital, who believes that even
this small quantity of radium rolling
about the city might work harm
through terrible and even fatal
burning. The doctor solicited the aid
OF the omnibus company, which in
structed every employee to do his best
to discover the phial.
Meanwhile the medical man is the
sport of the profession, including even
Nine. Curie. Asked if this quantity
OF radium really was dangerous, the
noted woman member of the Sor-
bonnie faculty said:
IF the bottle contained eight MILL
grammes of radium the danger would
be real, but if the quantity was less
than six milligrammes it would pro-
duce only slight burns if applied t.
the flesh.
1T seems to me. also, that the value
placed upon it Is somewhat exagger-
ated, though it is never possible to be
exact about the money value in such
matter
Il wouldn't be surprised If the doc
tor lost this phial as an experiment,
to observe some original effects of a
radioactive or therapeutic nature, or
perhaps there was no radium at all,
but a practical Joke" s4
Nine. Curie added that sac though
under present conditions in the scien-
tific world the last thing that ought
to run the risk Of being lost was
radium. # s3s

GRATED SKIN COVERS BODY
Woman with Crazy Patchwork Over
Flesh Renews Suit for Damages
for Burns Received.

Chicago.-Miss Emma Gallagher,
2207 West Harrison street, who had
4,500 particles of skin grated on her
body IL years ago as the result of
burns received while cleaning cloth
ing with benzine, has resumed her
fight in the superior court against q
sewing machine company to secure
damages on the charge that she was
slandered by the company's agent.
The suit came up for trial year
ago and Miss Gallagher was given
judgment for $4,000. On the ground
that the judgment was excessive,
Judge Wright, from the country dis
trict, who heard the case, set the YER
dict aside.
The rehearing comes up before
Judge Abbott Mrs. Gallagher, who is
crippled, declares she will fight the
case to finish. .- =
my terrible experience of IL years
ago has not in the least affected my
fighting qualities" she said. TN fact,
l think it has increased my aggressive
nature. In those $500 pieces of skin
on my anatomy is represented every
nation on earth, and think have in
herited some of the fighting qualities
that go with them"
The skin grating process undergone
by Miss Gallagher covered a period Of
two years, and during that time 10
grating operations were performed.
More than 1000 persons contributed
portions of their anatomy in order
that the Ywoman's life might be saved.

The North Pole has been discover
ed. The inaccessible part of the earth's
surface which for centuries has been
the object of mans daring, adven
ture and ambition, has been reached
at last. DR.. Friedrich A. Cook claims
he found the pole April II, 1908, and
Lieutenant Perry claims that he got
there April 6, 1909. We have no good
reason to doubt the story Of either
discoverer. That the North Pole
should be discovered some time is
not to be wondered at when one re-
members the almost superhuman eff
forts that were being made to find it,
but that two explorers, both of them
Americans, should return almost
simultaneously and claim the honor
of having nailed the Stars and
Stripes to the Pole. was more than
the world had bargained for. The
United States can Therefore claim the
North Pole as it's possession by rea-
son of double discovery. To be sure
it may not be worth much in a practi.
cal way, as both Cook and Perry
agree that it is covered by deep fro
zen ocean, the ice being of enormous
thickness and constantly shifting as
1t is melted by the summer sun or
moved along by the wind and waves.
But the fact that the pole has been
reached puts the crown on another
great human achievement. It is this
spirit of adventure in man, the longing
to find out what lies beyond the lofty
mountains" to seek out the unknown,
to attempt the difficult, the impossi-
BILE, it is this spirit that carries man
forward and upward, and makes in
ventions and discoveries and all forms
of human achievements possible. With
out this spirit there would be no pro-
gress, no enterprise, no improvement
in the conditions of life and living.
Well may mankind as whole rejoice
that the veil which since the dawn of
creation has hung over the northern
extremity of the imaginary axis
around which the earth revolves in it's
daily motion, has been lifted, and that
the mind of man has penetrated these
icy regions. In due time also the
South Pole will have to yield up it's
mystery. One after another the
hidden and obscure places of the
earth are brought into daylight The
mysteries Of nature are being re-
vealed. Man is becoming familiar with
his environment.

side-street bridge, Saturday afternoon,
Captain James L. Smith, master of
the tugboat, says that Pilot All Belts
lost control of the Olson & Mahoney.
Smith also declares that he was act
ing entirely under orders Of Belts.
His statement, which was received
by the inspectors this morning, is in
part as follows:
'Tn passing through the Burnside
bridge draw Pilot Belts lost control
of the Olson & Mahoney and struck
the first pier east Of the drawspan,
the Henderson striking on her port
bow and smashing in about 10 feet Of
her guard, the Olson & Mahoney
striking amidships and crushing her
guard and shifting the pier over and
otherwise damaging the bridge. In
moving the Olson & Mahoney I was

"The steamer Olson & Mahoney

The injury was sustained BY Sower

railroad company contended that be-
cause he was on the tender he was
guilty Of contributory negligence.
The Texas court decided, however,
that as running on the engine was
customary with trainmen It did not
constitute negligence. The railroad
company sought to have the disposi-
ton Of the case controlled BY Law
Of New Mexico prohibiting the bring

this view.
