been ordered, and they will be re-
ceived next week. This will be
Hawley's only band. Immediately
on receipt of the instruments leader
Meyers will begin giving instructions
to the boys. He will give individual
lessons at first, followed by concert
lessons as soon as the boys have
made sufficient progress to be able to
carry their parts.
The first public appearance of the
Boys Band will take place on the
Fourth of July, when, five abreast,
they will parade the streets of Haw-
ley and play the four or five pieces
that their competent leader expects
they will be able to do by that time.
In time there may be little COM
petition between the Boys Band Of
Honesdale and the Boys Band of
Hawley, and if that time eve& does
come the boys from the Middle Creek
section will surely be able to make
considerable noise about their ac-
complishments. In the meantime,
everybody in Hawley is hurrahing
for the new band.

RADIUM TO CURE CANCER.
S2,5o0 Worth Injected Into the Liver of
Malcolm Watson.

Philadelphia, April 3.-Physicians in
this city will watch with interest the
result of an injection of one three-hun-
dredths of an ounce of radium into the
liver Of Malcolm Watson as cure for
cancer.
The operation was performed in the
Methodist Episcopal hospital by DR.. G..
J. Schwartz. The radium was brought
to Philadelphia by DR.. Otto Brill, an
Austrian chemist, now living in Pitts
burgh.
The dose put into Watson's liver was
worth just $2,50O. 1t is believed that
the radium rays will act on the cancer
as they do on number of diseases and
gradually kill it. Several prominent
medical men witnessed the operation.
The only anaesthetic used was local
application of cocaine.

Readers of the local newspapers
have been noting of late the fact that
many personal items from Hawley

out-of-town young men. AS proof of
what is now being written it may be
as well to go over this department
right now and read for yourselves.
This fact, when coupled with the
other fact that during the last few
years other men from the regions
beyond" have come into Hawley,
and finding what desirable young
women were here, they did not let

for the past two
years has been in a sad
WTy way, because it has been
lifD band-less. Just think of it,
fellow-citizens, a town OF
the Importance of Hawley, and no
band that could be called on for pur-
poses constantly arising that demand
the inspiring music of horns and
drums. Such a condition as that is
not to be contemplated with equan-
unity. At least that is what H. j.
Meyers thought, and Mr.. Meyers is
not Hawley boy of long residence,
either He was a musician
connected with a travelling
show of some sort, and in his
travels he came to Hawley, and
the inevitable happened: He fell in
love with a Hawley maiden, married
her and settled down for life as a
Hawleyite. He is a very skillful mu-
sician, and according to report can
play on about any musical instru-
ment that is made. Further than
that, he is a teacher of music, and
according to report very good one.
He found Hawley without band.
For many years Hawley had two
bands. They were known as the
German band and the Irish band, and
there was always more or less of
friendly rivalry between the two in
stitutions. The writer can remem-
ber-but, pshaw! What's the use of
going into that at this time? Later
on, perhaps we will tell more about
the musical side of the towns his
tory.
When Mr. Meyers saw the band
less condition of the town he went to
work to try and set all such matters
to rights. The result is that band
of twenty-one members has been or
ganized. 1t is composed of the fol-
lowing young men, or boys, rather,
