ENLRGr OF RADIUM. One Ten of It Would Equal In Power 1.500,000 Tone of Coal. If one could utilize the energy of a tun of radium through a space of thirty years It would be sufficient to drive 1 ship of 15.000 tons, with engines of Ift.UOO horsepower, al a rate of fifteen knots throughout the whole thirty years. To do this 1.500.000 tons of coal ere actually required, says the Chicago Tribune These are not fanciful figures, for the energy Is there, though, as a matter ot fact. It la unlikely that man will evei produce much more than naif an ounce of radium a year. Still, the fact Is Important for this reason- that science is convinced that the radium In radium bromide is not the only element which po-sesses this marvelous store of energy, but that the calcium In gypsum and the sodium in common salt contain also this energy content. The evidence of the wonderful atomic energies In the common elements of everyday material is rapidly accumulating, and scientists are of the opinion that perhaps these same discoveries may In time alter U» whom future of ths human rat

There Is no doubt in my mind that the biggest factor In the develop ment of this state of affair^ Is the woe ful lack of labor saving contrivances In the farm woman’s home. Many houses In the country are still without that greatest of labor savers - a kitchen sink, a sink with a pump or faucet and with a drain leading out from it. The carrying in and out of water is the most laborious and back breaking tasx of an the hard tasks belonging to the housekeeper There ts no -ubsritute for a kitchen sink.

No End of Debate, It Bom£ Expe.ted to Last Six Weeks. Was’ i . ton. July 12.—Finally the Underwood-s unions tariff bill Is be fore 1 ■ > and at least six weeks of deb now In prospect. The bill ha- ported by the full mem bersblp ' committee on finance The m lua to report was adopted hv a strict - | an vote. Senator rflni mens of Xorth Carolina, chairman of the tlicim ommlttue, gave notice soon uft. tl bill was reported, that on next ■ c: lay he would move to make it the finished business, which motion If ud' ted. will give the mean ure legislative right of way.

One of the most important amend ments is that rn iting a joint commit tee of itmv .hers of each house ol congress to shbrnlt a report on a revision of the administrative features be fore Feb. !. T.1M The senate commit tee also passed an amendment giving federal cit Pt mirts of appeal concurrent jur'wiiciiun with the customs court over customs appeal cases where the »rnnut involved exceeds $100 in value. One of the Iasi mendments adopted by the senate committee is Intended to conserve the constitutionality ol the measure and provides that if any | clause, sentence, paragraph or part ol the act Is held to be unconstitutional | by the courts, that such judgment 1 “shall not afreet, impair or Invalidate ! the remainder of said act.” Democratic leaders contend that the I senate committee has reduced the av erase ad valorem rate of duty nearly 10 per cent below tiiat carried by the bill as it passed the house and that it has increased the prospective revenue of the bill about $5,000,000 or $6,000,00. As the bill was finally reported to the senate it provides that raw wool shall go on the free list after Dec. 1, and that suvar shall be free after May 1, 1916. but the reduced duties on sugar shall not take effect until March

1. 1914.

Senator I .a Follette of Wisconsin served notice on the finance committee that he would ■ ubm‘t an Individual report on the tariff bill. Senator Smoot another Republican member of the committee gave notice that he would submit a complete substitute for sched K, the woolen schedule, which call:, for duties nearly as high as those in the existing law. Senate leaders think the consideration of the tariff bill, which will begin next Wednesday, will last six or eight weeks, I and there is little prospect that the bill will pass the senate before Sept. 10 The Republican leaders lu the senate have served notice on their Democratic colleagues that they will

London. July 12.—As the truth is gradually emerging, the (tilling in the Balkans se<-iii.-> to be over. Bulgaria, If not down and out. Is so crippled that she cunuol any longer face her eue mles. The final blow to her ambitions was given b> Roumania, although she apparently hail placed herself In the hands of Rus'ia before the Roumanian army invaded Bulgaria. She Is now forced to the humiliating position of being obliged to stand by and without resistance watch part of her territory being overrun by a hostile army Her explanation that she will not tight a new enemy Is < ^plained at Vienna by the supposition that she has received assurance that Russia will keep the Roumanian appetite within limits, a supposition which Is supported by Rub slan mobilization In Bessarabia. Meanwhile the armistice which Bui garla asked Russia to arrange has not been completed, and It Is feared that Servla and Greece are likely to Imposs conditions which will make the ar raugement most difficult. The Roumanian troops occupied without opposition the Bulgarian city of SUestrla. on tiie right bank of the Danube. It Is a very Important city of more than 12.000 Inhabitants. It Is thought that for the present Roumania will content herself in occupying a strip of Bulgarian territory from Turtukai, on the Danube, to Baltohtk. on the Black sea A dispatch from Salonika says that the Greek troops occupied Demtr-Hls-aar, thirteen miles northwest of Ser res, after a brilliant victory over the Bulgarians.

TO SAVE Ti?i*E AND EXPENSE Changes Pending In Slate Board ot Accounts. WILL SIMPLIFI THE SYSTEM

State Examiner Is Preparing to Put In Effect a Number of Radical Changes in the Manner of Making Examlna tlons in Public Offices. With a View to Saving Time and Money and increasing Efficiency. Indianapolis. July 12. The chief examiner of the state bottl'd of amounts. G. H Hendren is preparing lu pul iu effect several radical changes in the manner of making examinations of public officers with a view to saving time and money and increasing the efficiency of the department generally. He will publish a schedule of fees for every public office where fees are collected and require It to he used as a standard The schedule will be approved by the attorney general before being sent out to officials and field ex amlnera At present there Is no uniformity in the collection uf fees, arid each official Interprets the complicated laws on the subject as he sees fit. It Is Mr. Hendren's idea that every ottl cia! should know the proper amount of fees to be collected In each case and should not deviate from the standard The field examiners will be instructed to hold officials accountable for any departure from the schedule furnished by the board of accounts. As soon as they can be prepared forms will be provided for the field examiners for making their reports At present they are required to write out their reports of examinations iu full, which is expensive when they hire the work done, and takes considerable time when they do it themselves The forms will be modeled after those used by bank examiners and building and loan examiners. Another new Idea introduced by Mr Hendren Is to assign the examiners to offices as near their homes as possible so as to cut down their traveling ex penses. Their fare Is paid from their homes to the place of their assign ment uud return one time. WOULD ABOLISH TOWNSHIP
