London, July Cancer is no
longer 4 mystery, according to the
deliberate verdict of the London
Pathological Society. DR.. Lambert
Lack, the eminent throat specialist,
Is credited, by his learned col
leagues, with having solved one OF
the most momentous and perplexing
problems known to medical science.
The scientific world is wrought
IN over DR.. Lacks Discovery,
which is pronounced one OF the
very greatest of modern times.
Various European savants have
from time to time announced the
isolation of the micro organism OF
cancer-some Of them very re-
cently-but their conclusions have
been disputed by other scientists
and not one Of them has won the
support of such = weighty body Is
the London Pathological Society.
Lambert Lace, whose name bids
fair TO become ~ famous - that OF
pasteur, is honorary surgeon to the
Golden Square Throat Hospital
one of the largest in the world. Fol-
4 long time he has been invests
eating the origin of malignant
growths, with particular attention
to cancer.
Holding with the accepted scien'
ti6c opinion that cancer was the re
suit Of . germ, he nevertheless
worked along lines radically DIFF
ferent from those pursued BY tn
majority Of Investigators IN Thu

After . series of tests covering
several years, he discovered tina
! the dreaded disease invariably be

character to what ID known - tn

truth, he set to work to produc
J cancer in the lower animals, an

which the entire fabric Of bacter

to expect that in . short time D

Like . true scientist he hastent
!. to present his discovery to ma
!, kind. No sooner did he consid'
y that his tests were conclusived thu
re he submitted the whole thing to
ID select committee of the Londt

- And now the society itselfi b
declared its conviction that u

Of During the past quarter OF

A Beautiful Wedding.

The splendid home OF Mrs. II. A.
Widemsnn at Punahou was decor
ated last evening with the lavish
floral gifts Of Hawaii. The occasion
was the marriage OF Carl Widemann,
the head of the well-known family,
to Helen Parker the favorte belle
in the society circles Of Hawaii.
Owing to the recent bereavement
in the Widemaun family only the
relations and intimate friends of the
contracting parties we're present at
the impressive ceremony at which
Rev. Father Leonore officiated. After
the words had been pronounced
which made Carl and Helen "hus
band and wife," an informal recep-
ton was held and the happy couple
received the congratulations Of
friends in all stations Of life; OF all
creeds and nationalities.
A true sign OF the popularity of the
young people was the costly gifts
which were sent to the bride dur
ing the day. We don't think that
the equal has ever been seen in Ho-
nolulu, not alone in regard to the
value OF the presents but in regard
to the exquisite taste exhibited by
the donors.
Mr.. aud Mrs. Carl Widemann will
leave for Mana, the country seat Of
Mr.. Samuel Parker, by the Iwalani
this afternoon and will probably
visit the volcano prior to their re-.
turn to the city. The INDEPENDENT
wishes the distinguished young Ha-
waiian couple prosperous future
and all the happiness allotted to
man.

Killing.
Early this morning the authorities
we're notified that man had killed
his wife and thereafter committed
suicide. The message stated that
tragedy had taken place back Of the
premises OF DR.. Howard. Deputy
Marshal Chillingworth proceeded at
once to the place but found no
traces OF tragedies. Later on be
learned that the shooting had been
done on premises adjoining those OF
Dr. Alvarez on Emma street.
Upon his arrival he found slight
ly injured woman and a dying man.
Both we're Galicians and the shoot
ing had been done by the husband
10 fit of jealousy. The man found
his wife in fagrante delictu. He
didn't shoot his punal,.a, but went
for the woman. She got out Of bed
and told the husband that his name
was mud and that he needn't call
around again. The irate man drew
his second hand revolver aud fred
shot which inflicted flesh wound
in the breast OF the woman who
naturally went into Mysteries. He
then tried to end his own miserable
life and pumped two lead pillets
into his neck
The woman will live aud it is very
possible that the man will recover.
DR.. Day is in attendance but it has
not been considered advisable to re.
move the injured man. Deputy

eating the case.
