RADiUM PLANT SOLD.
Government Completes Experimental
Work at Denver.

Having completed it's experimental
work on radium in Colorado the bur-
eau of mines and the National Radium
Institute have turned over their plant
and radium equipment In Denver to
the Pittsburgh Radium company
which recently purchased it. For three
years the bureau has been cooperating
with the National Radium Institute
and very successful series of expert
ments has resllted. AS was stated
specifically at the beginning of the
work. agreement was to be for expert
mentation covering a limited time.
The total production while not yet
exactly known during the three years
work was over eight grams of radium
metal. This output has been turned
over to the Howard A. Kelly hospital
in Baltimore, and the General Memoir
ial hospital of New York. Despite fire.
quent statements to the contrary, the
arrangements of these hospitals are
enthusiastic over the results they have
obtained in the use of the radium in
the treatment of cancer

COST OF FINDING AMERICA.
Ships Cost $1,000 and Columbus Drew
Salary Of $500 Per Year.

Documents recently discovered in
the archives of Genoa throw an in
teresting light on the cost of discovery
of America, which is given as a total
of $1,000. The ships were valued at
$500. Columbus himself was paid the
muniticent salary of 5000 a year while
two of his captains drew down 5000
Il year and the ordinary seamen were
paid at the rate of $3.50 per month
Compared with present prices and
wages what difference there exists.
Take the cost of ships, what would
$4,000 buy now in the way of an ocean
going ship? An ordinary launch to
take a few men up and down the river
might cost more than the total value
put on the three ships with which
Columbus sailed the unknown seas
and added a whole hemisphere to the
wealth of the world.

WHEN COLONEL HOUSE
CALLS At WHITE HOUSE
ADVISER GENER.
ALLY ARRIVES AT NIGHT
VISITS ARE BRIEF.

When Colonel l.. M. House comes
to Washington to confer--as friend
and adviser-with President Wilson
his routine constitutes good lesson
in making hay while the sun shines.
Here is an outline of "a hours with
the famous sphinx in felt hat
when he comes here, says a Washing
ton correspondent.
House generally drops into Wash
ington from New York at night. He
is met at the train by a White House
automobile and taken to the White
House. Some times the president
greets him briefly that night. but
more frequently not. House usually
goes Immediately to the room always
assigned him. 1t is near the presi =
dents.
The following morning he does not
breakfast with the president. He has
his choice of breakfasting in his own
ROOM as the president does or of COM
ing downstairs in the mansion and
eating in dining room. He always
prefers to eat in the dining room-and
he eats there usually alone.
Everything Arranged.
After breakfast he calls for list Of
the days engagements arranged at
his request before hand. They include
conferences with personal friends,
members of the cabinet and ample al
lowance for any time the president
desires. The names of Counsellor
Frank Polk, Secretary Lansing, At
torney General Gregory, Postmaster
General Burleson and Secretary Nc
Adoo always appear on the days pro-
gram, All are warm friends of House.
These engagements generally start
about II o'clock in the morning. House
walks to most of them, as the offices
of his friends are within a radius of
a few blocks of the White House.
Up to II o'clock, however, he usual
Iy holds open to see the president.
His time with the president is sell
dom lonog. House may be reading or
in his study nearby, when the
president will suddenly come in to him
Or ask that House go into the study
Their talk together may be Is minutes
Or it may be two hours When they
part House probably ~ not see the
president again until the next visit
There is never any ceremony between
them. Each KNOWS" the other.
His Time Is Crowded.
House generally stays at the White
House until either the noon train or
the 6 o'clock train for New York.
When he goes on the noon train his
time is so crowded that some peculiar
enga gements are made for him.
AS examples, on a recent visit, an
see a man while riding in the automo-
bile from the White House to the
train. Others saw him briefly at the
station. Still another was given time
on the train from Washington to Bal
timore and one man, talked with him
from Baltimore to Philadelphia.
With all his visits and conferences,
Colonel House has yet to give out any
news He is the silentest man in the
world when it comes to discussing
objects of his visits here. This silence
when he went abroad last year for the
president, won him the reputation of
the Sphinx in a felt hat"
