A recent and most eurloun discovery made In connection with the study of radium Is Its peculiar property of de stroy Ing the poisonous effect of tin* venom of serpents, says Harper's Weekly.

These experiments led to others, where the radium emanation was employ ed Instead of the direct action of the radium rays, and a glass tube was (tiled with n 1 per cent solution of viper poison to about two-thirds Its height. The till** was then exhausted Dr. Powell Talks of Sanitarium. Dr. T. O. Powell, superintendent of the state sanitarium ,was In the city yesterday In conference with Gover nor Terrell regarding affairs at that Institution. Despite the fact that the facilities at the sanitarium havo been greatly increased, some of the wards, the negro ward especially, are still rather crowded. "We are receiving from ono to ten patients evory day now," Dr. Powell said, "and are tak* lug them In just ns rapidly as we have room llurnii njCttt In the femffie department, but the negro wards particularly are crowded.
