year ago planned and executed by the

the victim. Mr. Wren arranged the
hold-up. with two Avant citizens Ga
druggist and deputy sheriff., who
were to surprise young Zimmerman
and rob the bank They came in at
side door In the evening. while
Wren and Zimmerman were alone.
They were preparing to close the
bank and had considerable cash on
the counter. Both the robbers were
dressed in cowboy garb and wore
masks. and leveled their guns on
Zimmerman and Wren. commanding
them to put up their hands. The
order was quickly compiled with by
both. Zimmerman was faced to the
wall and Wren was a little obstinate
and was knocked down by one Of
the supposed robbers. his groaning

Radium.

Radium results from the degenera- tion of uranium, though there are in- termediate products, and radium itself likewise gives rise to series of radio active products differing from one an other. In each of these cases of de- generation the process is similar. Ra- dium decomposes with the emission of two sorts of rays called the alpha rays and the beta rays The alpha rays are neither more nor less than atoms of gas helium, long since known to exist in the sun by it's spectrum, and more recently detected in ura- nium ore. The beta particles are iden- tical with the electrons which form the cathode rays. The alpha particles are expelled from the radium at a tremendous velocity, but this is far excelled by the velocity of the beta rays. Sir Ernest Rutherford and his colleagues in radiographical investi- gation have succeeded not only in de- termining the identity of the alpha particles with helium, but also in es- tablishing the relative size of the electrons and the atoms of helium. The mass of the beta particles is only about one seven-thousandth part the size of the helium atom, and most of the heating effect of radium is due to the energy of the larger alpha par ticles.

SHAKES WATER MICROBES LOOSE WITH ELEC-
 TRICITY.

Many people have been att tracted to 606 Louisiana street, the Arcade, to see the operation of an electrical water-purifying plant recently installed by the National Pure Water Company. Water is drawn from the city mains into a cylinder, where it is electrically treated for the purpose of breaking loose or dislodging the suspended parti- cles contained in the water. Then the water passes into a glass tank where the disengaged mud and bacteria is precipitated to the bottom, leaving the clear water at the top. This clear wa ter is drawn off into another and still another settling basin until nothing but clear water remains, this testing nearly LOO per cent pure.
 The process adds no chemical or substance of any kind to the water, but uses the selective ac- tion of electricity to break up all the objectionable chemical compounds. It generates oxy- gen, chlorine and other gases in the water, to be used in making up new and totally insoluble compounds, and by this process all the germ life, animal and veg etable matter present is killed or hydrolized. This matter is thus precipitated out of the solution or in other words separated and thrown to the bottom of the yes Esel. The water, no matter what it's condition before the treat ment, comes out as clear as a diamond and pure as the morn ing dew. Water thus treated will stay sweet practically in- definitely, as it has had all the souring or decaying material taken from it.
 The use of electricity for treating water is something new. It is the invention of a Kansas City expert. Nothing is removed from the water except objectionable matter and bacte- ria. None of the essential quail ities are lost, as in boiling and distillation. The treated water is as soft as rain water. Any one may see the electric filter in operation.
