TREATMENT 'PUB RADII

IS ABANDONED ENTIRELY LONDON HOSPITAL. IN RELIEVES PAIN NO MORE Experts Devoting Energies to Per fecting Device to Use Roentgen Rays. London, March 23. The radium treatment for cancer has been abandoned entirely at the cancer hospital. It never was viewed with much hope there, and a few days ago the last unsuccessful experiment with it was made. According to the Daily Mail the trials were made at the end with a case containing five grains covered only with mica sheeting, probably the largest piece of radium in any hospital in Europe, and the effect Avas always the same, though it might vary in a degree. The surface of the skin became inflamed, a blister form ed and dried up, but that was all. Sixteen cases have been under treat ment, the longest period of a single application having been three hours and the longest total time of application having been about twenty-five hours, and the only favorable result has been an occasional cessation of pain. On the other hand, several patients have complained of an increase of pain. The authorities of the cancer hospital are noAv devoting all their money and time to improving the high frequency treatment, especially as regards the enormous waste of electrical power which distinguishes the present use of the Roentgen rays. A current of 200 volts is to be transformed into a fifty volt current and this again reduced without Avaste to a twenty-five volt current, the latter being the pressure used in the present application of the rajs for cases of internal cancer. Experiments are being made with certain new lamps which can be inserted into a cooling tube containing water and then introduced into the body. Both these and the new electrical machinery will, however, recmire several weeks to perfect. REVIVAL MEETINGS. A large and deeply interested audience listened to Evangelist T. J. Legg at the Christian chureh last night. His subject was "Christian Baptism." It was a notable sermon on that much misunderstood subject; but the most remarkable thing about it was that the speaker did not once state his own views, but simply presented the New Testament teaching on the question. Two persons made the confession at the close of the sermon. "An Infallibly Safe Course" will be Mr. Letnr's subject tonisrht at 7:30. Several persons will be baptized at the close of the service tonight. REVIVAL SERVICES. At the revival services this evening at 7:30 o'clock at the First Methodist Episcopal church Evangelist C. Fenwick Reed will deliver a lecture, in which he will propound "Some Plain Truths About, the Dance.' ' Mr. Reed will continue to preach each afternoon at 2:30 and evening at 7:30 for the remainder of this week. A. J. Pickett who has been confined to his home for the past five weeks by sickness, was out on the streets yesterday and looks as though he were good for many more years. PSYCHOLOGICAL. The cat and the infant sat upon the heart-rug and regarded each other long and seriously. The cat's attitude was that of pure contemplation her look as one whose rtde it is neither to ask nor answer. The infant mind plainly struggled with a. thought of which the outcome was presently this profound question: "Does a cat know she's a cat?" CRITICISM. "A rich man is subject to a great deal of criticism." "Yes," answered Mr. Dust iij .Stay. "He is liable to he criticised fUst for 4U ; t. i . . . mi? iimiiiici in which jie trets ins mon ey and next for the manner in which he gives it away."

GOOD FRIDAY Anderson Ministers Want Public Schools Dismissed. Anderson, Ind., March 24. The following ministers of the city, the Rev. H. L. Marvin, Rev. William J. Fink, Rev. I). J. Mulcahey and Rev. Thomas M. Conroy, have sent a petition to the board of school trustees, asking, that the public schools be

In past years the schools have never closed on Good Friday, but all over the country a movement has been started this year to observe the day with special services and make it a holiday. The petition sent to . the school board follows: "To the Board of Education of the City of Anderson. ' "Gentlemen: We, the undersigned, clergymen of Anderson, deeply sensible of the honor due the anniversary of the day upon which the Christian salvation was secured, by the death upon the cross of our most Holy Redemer, respectfully ask that you dismiss the schools on Good Friday, April 1st, that our children may attend upon divine worship on that day without suffering the disabilities or penalties usually consequent upon absence fi-om a school session."
