FROM QUICKSILYER Discredited Seaych of Middle Ages Revived on Scientific Basis; Two Elements Closely Related, New York, Nov. 12.Alchemy, discridited “sclence” of medieval times, may be vinidcated by the re- sult of experiments of American sclentists. Under the direction of the Beientific American, whose edi- tor, E. E. Free, is confident of suc- cess, experiments have been started to determine the practicabllity of trangmuting quick-siiver into gold— a feat that is sald to have been ac- complished recently at great ex- pense by a German savant, Professor Adolph Miethe, of Charlottenburg Technical college, Berlin. cstimated a pound of gold worth about $830 would cost more than $2,000,000 to produce, Many sclen- tiste are sald to believe that this cost can be reduced materially, modern scfence, the experimenters say. Gold has a planetary system of 79 electrons while quick-silver has 80. By permanently "knocking off" the superfluous electron with electric current, it is believed pure gold will result, In the experiment now going for- ward at New York University under the supervision of Professor H. H I.‘lhf‘lilml of the department of ph sics, an effort will be made to dis- | cover the conditions that control the transmutation of mercury to gold {and estimate the cost of production. From these experiments it is hoped it will be possible to tell with | some precision, how long it will be, it ever, before *cheap gold” wiil make necessary a rearrangement of the world’'s monetary system. DAVIS SECRETARY OF WAR? | Assistant Secretary Dwight F. Davis Mentioned As Possible Successor It Weeks Should Resign, | St. Louis, Nov. 12.— Republican state leaders today were awalting an answer to letters written to Presi- dent Coolidge endorsing Dwight 1. Davis of this city, assistant secretary of war, for secretary of war in the | |event Johu W. Weeks should not re- | main in the cabinet. Endorsements | of Mr. Davis were sent to Presi- |dent Coolidge yesterday by Dr. E. B. Clements, national committee of | Missouri, and W. F, Phares, chair- man of the state committee which they based on reports to them that Mr. Weeks would resign. The writers pointed to the past record of Mr. Davis, both as a citi- | zen and public official as well as a soldier during the world war and |suggested that he would be the log- ical choice in the event Secretary Wecks would leave the cabinet. The fact that Missourl republicans suc- eeeded In swinging the state into the republican column in two succeeding presidential elections is glven by the writers as deserving of notice. | AMr. Davis began his public career as a city department officlal here, which position he gave up after building up the city's park system. | During the war he attained the rank |of lieut. colonel. In 1920 he was a candidate for the republican nom- ination for 17, 8. senator, but was Icfeated in the primary by -Senator Selden P. Spencer. He was appoint- od assistant secretary of war during the Harding administration, DIES OF HEART FAILURE Mrs, Martha Thrasher Expires Sud- . was rehearsed yesterday by | denly Following Noon Meal Yes- terday—Had Been 111 Four Years. | .
