Negress Throws Away
$1,000 Tube of Radium


TOWNSVILLE, Sept. 3O.-There
was CONSERVATION among the doctors
of the Radium Institute here yester-
day when it was found that $1,000
worth of radium had been thrown in
to a sewer.
The radium was being used in
treating a negro woman for cancer
at the hospital and was left attached
for certain length of time. Decid-
ing that She did not like the Odor of
radium and saw no good in little
thing like that, the woman happening
to be left alone, cut the string hold
ing it and going to the bath room,
threw the costly remedy into the
sewer.
When the attending physicians re-
turned and found the radium missing
and learned of it's disposition, excite
ment reigned supreme. Sewer pipes
were torn up and rigorous search
made. After extended search, the
tiny tube, hardly larger than a nee
die, was found lodged against the
sewer trap in the yard of the hos
pital.
A young plumber received the hun
dred dollars reward offered for the
recovery of the radium.
