—Dietz on Science — COMET'S PATH IS FOLLOWED IN SPACE SHIP Thrilling Race Occurs as Explorers Speed on Route to Planet. BY DAVID DIETZ Serll>l*-Howr<! Relenfe Editor The cry of the lookout in the nose of the rocket ship rings out through the control room—“ Comet to starboard.’’ Our lookout, who is a trained astronomer, has spotted a tiny point of light, and assumes that he has sighted a comet. At once, our chief navigator and the chief of our scientific staff hurry to the chartroom. They pour over their star maps and charts, make various calculations, and return to announce that we have sighted the famous comet known as Encke s comet. Some of our passengers leave their bridge game in the smoking salon and hurry to the windows * to get a sight of the comet, and are disappointed to see that the comet looks like nothing more than a slightly hazy, or fuzzy star. That is how a comet appears to the astronomers when it, first sweeps into view in their telescopes. It is only as it draws nearer that its magnificence becomes apparent. Tail Is Gigantic Soon, the comet is a far more impressive sight Brightest of all is the comet's head, while the tail trails away faintly behind it. The head, we observe, is composed of two portions, a central bright area, known to astronomers as the nucleus, surrounded by a hazy envelope known as the coma. By now, the rocket ship had approached much more closely to the comet, and we began to appreciate its true magnitude. The comet now fills more than a third of the sky upon our right. By training our range finders upon it, we are able to measure its size. The coma, we discover, is 100,000 miles in diameter. The tail, stretching behind the coma, is about 1,000,000 miles long. Within the coma We notice the brighter portion or nucleus. It is very small, not much more than 500 miles in diameter. Approach Comet’s Head We have caught up now with the tip of the tail, and the comet stretches out for a million miles ahead of us. We note no:r that the tail is not steady. The streamers composing it flicker and change shape. In some way, it reminds us of the Aurora Borealis through which we passed just before we left the earth's atmposhere. Clea.ly, tpe tail is rendered luminous by some sort of electric action, perhaps an electrification of the atoms of gas by the action of sunI'&ht. As we approach the head of the comet, we find even a greater commotion than in the tail. New streamers continuously dart out of the coma into the taii. Meteor Perils Ship We see now that the tail is a stream of material driven out of the coma and dissipated into space. We see also that the rocks and particles composing the nucleus are in reality a great group of meteors. They are in constant motion within * the nucleus. Suddenly, there is a flash in the nucleus and a stream of meteors is thrown from it. One hurtles across the bow of our rocket ship, perilously near the nose of the ship. We take the warning and increase the distance between us and the comet. "Most comets disintegrate in that fashion,’’ our chief navigator continues. Grows Gradually Fainter “The meteoric showers such as the Leonids are caused by streams of meteors which represent the debris of dsintegrated comets. “Each time Encke’s comet, is seen it is a little fainter than before. The comet is slowly going to pieces. I Other comets have been known to split in two. “You all have .heard of the great | havoc wTought in northern Siberia when a great group of meteors crashed into the ground, making more than 200 depressions and charring and searing the trees for a radius of more than thirty miles in all directions. Most astronomers today believe it w™ a piece of the Pons-Winnecke eompt which struck the parth.’’ Our ship has outdistanced the comet and we see it now disappearing behind us. Next: We arrive at Uranus. the sea-green world. WASHING MACHINE PERIL Great Danger to Children Pointed Out by Toronto Hospital Official. By l ntted Press TORONTO.

After fifty years, gold mining areas in New Mexico have been rediscovered and Amarilloans are turning toward the sister state for new livelihood.

There only is the hope of sustenance through patience, good luck, and labor. Two mining companies have been organized here. The Golden Arrow Mining Cos. is centering its activities around a mine believed worked once by Spaniards in the Sierra county district. The Amarillo Gold Mining Cos. has focused its development in Eureka Gulch, center of the Hopewell district.
FORGOTTEN MILLIONS IN OLD GOLD HUNTED Half-Billion Oollars' Worth of Metal Believed Lying Idle. By United Press NEW YORK. April 15.—Half a billion dollars’ worth of old gold is believed to be lying idle and forgotten throughout the United States. In order to bring this treasure out of hiding and available for the government, an energetic campaign i has been organized. The wealth of forgotten gold is in the form of old outdated jewelry, discarded watch cases and chains, dental plates and innumerable trinkets. i If this miscellaneous wealth be thrown into the melting pot, it becomes as valuable to the government as the gold coins and bullion which, at the President's urging, recently has been brought out of hoarding. !

REFORMATORY CRUELTY STORY BRANDEDJALSE Pendleton Institution Head Also Issues Denial of Graft Charges. Rw Times Special PENDLEAON, Ind., April 15. Emphatic denial of charges that prisoners at the Indiana state reformatory are subjected to brutal treatment was made today by Ralp Howard, superintendent of the instiution. The charges as made to The Indianapolis Times were laid before Howard with a request that he tell his story of conditions here. Majority of the allegations were denied in full by Howard. Tw r elve had been made against the institution and its administration. The charges against the reformatory ranged from vermin in the food served prisoners to alleged improper actions of guards towards wives, sisters and sweethearts of prisoners. Brutality Is Denied Howard* admitted that guards at the reformatory carry blackjacks, but declared they are under orders not to use the instruments except in emergency. Howard denied any “rakeoff" by guards on money spent or received by prisoners. He admitted the institution might house “indiscreet” guards, bu, following two or three allegations of graft against any guard, he would be dismissed In answer to the allegations that prisoners, for minor rule infractions, were forced to stand up from early morning until late in the afternoon, Howard said this punishment, at the most, was only two hours in the morning and two in the afternoon. “The prisoner stands on a pad for two hours at a time—morning and afternoon,” he said. ‘ This method of punishment is used instead of a report to the reformatory court. Majority of the prisoners who seek to keep their records clear, rather would accept this than have a mark against them that would reflect on their chances for release.” Starvation Story Scouted .Allegations that prisoners are on such limited rations in solitary confinement that they are forced to crawl from the cells, were denied by Howard. “The man in solitary confinement is >©n restricted rations,” he said. “No man ever has crawled from a solitary cell. Some, who have refused to promise to be good, have been in there several months.” Howard also asserted therg was no truth to the charge that prisoners who attempted to escape were beaten, and that one had his teeth kicked out. “Some escape from the gardens,” he said, “and they are successful. Those men are dealt with elsewhere when they are caught. We try to prevent escapes hece, rather than devote our time to punishment.” Allegations that a reformatory physician was administering medical treatments to inmates and receiving additional pay for the service, : also was denied. Howard said a reformatory physician only is paid an annual fee. Smuggling Brings Discharge A guard who smuggles cigarets or similar article to a prisoner will be dicharged, Howard said. The same ruling .according to the superintendent, would be invoked if guards brought money from, outside sources to prisoners. The charge in this line was that a guard who brought in $lO acted as “broker” for the prisoner for $5. Immoral practices, or offenses to women relatives of prisoners by guards are impossible during the hours when the women visit ;he institution, Howard said. He declared thar the reception and visiting room arrangements are such that guards and institution employes have no opportunity for improper action. Howard said the institution was “remarkably free” from vermin. The reformatory houses prisoners aged from 16 to 30. Thursday afternoon it housed 2,376 prisoners. It was built to accommodate about half that number. YOUTH’S CELEBRATION ON BIRTHDAY COSTLY Driver’s License Revoked and He Pays Court for Spree.

1. No, with rare exceptions. It becomes ingrained in the elder brother’s nature, based originally on the fact that, as a boy he was bigger physically. The older brother assumes he is mentally superior, because of his physical size, and asserts his rights to the biggest orange, or the use of the bicycle and seldom gets over the habit. Most of the differences that arise between brothers in adult life go back to this primary, psychological cause. Wise parents try to train it out at the beginning. 2. That wise student of social psychology, John Galsworthy, answered this question in the affirmative. He said that formerly our parents studied us as biological specimens and saw through us more clearly. But now, he said, parents try to get down on the younger people’s level. Thus they miss the former point of view and fail to get close enough to this dynamic,

younger generation to find out those things that the friends of their own age know about them. Well, what shall we do about it? Study them a little harder, without insisting they are on the road to ruin if they are not precisely like we are. 3. If a woman wants to look young, seem young, and really be young, her best bet is to understand life and youth. The late Eiizabeth Marbury, literary critic, and one of the greatest hostesses of her time, was an example. She studied life so widely that she could sit down by a boy or a statesman, a young, aspiring writer or one of the immortals and make them forget her age in the flood of her immense understanding of human nature. A little rouge and make-up in a woman now and then is relished by the best of men, but mental vitality is the thing that always makes a man forget a woman's age.
