New York, Sept. 27-(Special Cor
respondence DR. William Wallace
Hadley, the eminent scientist and pro
fessor of panopathy and physiactrics, OF
this city has announced that he has
abandoned his large and lucrative priv
ate practice, and will hereafter give his
services free of charge for the treatment
and cure of chronic cases of disease pro-
nounced hopeless by physicians. He is
quoted as saying that he feels it his re-
ligious duty to help the sick and afflict-
ed Independent of any reward.
This decision, amazing in this day and
age of money getting madness, is all
the more remarkable when one remem-
bers this mans great reputation as a
scientific wizard, and his phenomenal sue
cess in healing when all others fail.
Times without number he has taken
men and women given up to death by
doctors, and restored them to life and
health in so short time and in such a
marvellous manner that he has aroused
widespread wonder and admiration
among all classes of people who are
aware of the facts.
So far no satisfactory explanation has
been given of DIR. Hadley's mysterious
control over disease of all kinds and his
apparent ability to overcome death, nor
of the means by which he has made the
almost miraculous cures that stand to
his credit, proclaiming him healer of
healers. He seems to have power over
human life and the ills that attack it not
given to ordinary mortals. He cures in
the face of such apparent impossible
ties that on one could be blamed for
thinking him possessed of supernatural
gifts, although he disclaims anything
more than a knowledge of the secret of
life, a peculiar understanding of the
causes of disease and death. and accom-
plete grasp of their prevention and cure,
In cases where physicians, surgeons and
specialists abandon hope and are at
their wits end to know wheat to do
he remains calm, confident and master
full, freeing the patient of pain and dis
ease almost as easily as he would re-
move strain from a piece of cloth.
Naturally a modest, unassuming man.
with reputation for never claiming
more than he can do, he yet makes the
startling statement that there is no dis
ease he may not cure, no case so bad

his ability to restore health and strength
Evidence that this is no more than the
literal truth is given by one of his pa
tients, Mrs. Hattie McCulley, of San
Pedro, CAL, who asserts that he re-
vived the vital spark in her body when
she was prepared for the grave; that
at the end of long siege of illness due
to a complica tion of diseases her body
felt lifeless, and doctors said that the
end had come, but that DR.. Hadley made
her heart beat again, and the blood flow
through her veins once more, and warmth
return to her wasted body. She natural
ly looks upon her restoration to life and
health as passing understanding, and calls
DR.. Hadley "a worker of miracles that
rival those of the prophets" Another
instance was that of a Mrs. NJ Worth
ington, of Egg Harbor, N. j., a woman
who had been an invalid for twenty-five
years, many long months bedridden in
hospitals, and who had been pronounced
hopelessly incurable and given up to
death by doctors. She was SO complete
ly prostrated from disease, pain and
weakness that she looked like a corpse
and felt like one when DR.. Hadley COM
menced his wonderful method of treat
ment and rescued her from the grave
One of the first indications of returning
life noticed as the mighty force controll-
ed by this scientific sOrcerer permeated
her system was the sudden return of nor
NAL circulation of the blood; then little
by little strength could be seen animat-
ing the wasted frame; gradually color
returned to the pale cheeks and they
filled out; the limbs rounded and the
whole body seemed to undergo trans
formation, until, before the eye of the
Extremely interested witnesses, the
woman stood forth in all the beauty
and perfection of physical and mental
health. Could doctors and specialists be
blamed for looking at DIR. Hadley in
amazement and reverent awe? Is it
any wonder that he is credited with SUI
perhuman power over disease, whatever
its name and nature? Preliminary to
another case, that of Mr. r. b. Hall,
of Snowville Va, the doctors, using
drugs. medicines and surgery, tried to
cure this hopeless invalid suffering from
disease long considered incurable. They
failed one after the other. The man was
on the verge of DEATH A piece of
bone nearly an inch long had been cut
| from his skull above the eye. His agOn-
les were terrible, and the doctors advis-
ed another operation as the only chance
of saving his life. But DR.. Hadley took
the case, said saving or cutting into the
mans head was not necessary, put Mr..
Hall under his treatment, and, remark
able as it may seem in the face of the
former failures, the man rose from his
bed and walked about, his life saved
and his health and strength restored
most marvelously. Yet these are only
random instances selected from among
