RADIUM NOT CANCER CURE.
Croker Research Has Come to That Con.
clEs!en.

New York, Dec. ls.-After exhaustive
tests on rats, mice and guinea pigs, the
use of radium as a cure for cancer and
tumors has been found TO be a failure,
according to the annual report of DR..
Francis Carter Wood, head of the Crock
er cancer research fund of Columbia uni
versity, made public last night. For cases
on which operation is not possible, ra-
dunn is successful as a palliative only,
the report states.
at is unquestionably possible to pro-
long life in few instances" DIR, Wood
says, "and to make the patients more
comfortable by the judcous and intelli
gent employment of large quantities of
radium. On the other hand it is equal
ly certain that the use of small quaint
ties, say 20 to 80 milligrams OF radium
element, often results in a rapid exten.
sion of the tumor, so that the patients
is worse than if he had been
left alone"

A New School Work That is Worth
Watching.

Boston citizens who have any feeling
that the continuation school system Is
still an experiment, or who know little
or nothing of the system-and there are
many OF them--should have been present
Wednesday evening when certificates
were granted to class of 80 boys and
of the school. The exercises were held
in the assembly hall of the Abraham
Lincoln schoolhouse, for the continuation
school has no room in public gatherings
in its crowded quarters on Lagrange
street though it is handling 5000 pu-
pills there as part of its regular routine.
The chief speaker at the exercises was
Dean Burton of Technology, one of the
advisory committee of professional and
business men who are showing keen in
terest in the work of. the school and prov
ing much practical assistance.
The school is now three years old and
is caring for 400 pupils. Last year the
enrolment was 3400. In addition to the
5000 taught at the Lagrange street build
ing this year. there are 100 taught at
and industrial establishments by teach
efS OF Jnt regular CITY sbdH. AHu uc IL
understood that the work in those
schools and at the Lagrange street build
ing, stated number of hours each
week, is all on time for which the en-
ployer pays, and for which he is learn
ing he can well afford to pay in view
of the results that follow.
The pupils who enter the continuation
school are boys and girls just passing
the age of Ia, when compulsory attend
ance in the graded schools ends. Forty
per cent of them leave school through
imperative need of earning money for
themselves or their homes; go per cent
leave because they cannot, or win not,
profit from the regular course of instruc
ton. Principal Evans finds the business
men willing to cooperate to most graf
living degree, and he runs what amounts
To one of the largest and most interest

And it is an agency whose oversight

ion after the pupil has reached the age

as the school authorities, has to sign.

country come here to study the working
of this remarkable Boston experiment OF
which many of our own citizens know
so little.-Boston Herald.

Amuc- Running.

What should be the attitude Of COM
munity toward an amuck runner? Sup
pose man. after equipping himself with
"A longer knife than was possessed by his
I.neighbor, should launch himself on a
journey OF distinctions; suppose he
should have no small degree of success
in his slashing expedition and should
succeed in escaping capture; suppose,
winded by his slashing labors, he should
then say to his victims, Lets have a
parey. | don't regret what have done
propose to keep my long knife and to
whet it to new sharpness. But ii you
agree to let me alone | promise for the
time being to stop cutting and stabbing.'
What would be the response to the
oirery Would it be said that it should
be accepted or would it be said that the
obvious th.ag TO do was to round up and
disarm the offender? Would it be re-
garded as safe TO allow him to continue
at large as long as weapons were in his
hands and an insane CLINT was in his
eye? Would the idea find acceptance
that the future peace of the community
would be promoted by dispersal OF the
posse and by inviting the amuck runner
to strut about as much as he desired?
1t is necessary, in connection with the
peace discussion, to consider the funda-
mental question of whether there has
been amuck running in Europe. Ii there
has not been a gigantic mistake has been
made the war is without reason, and
not another shot should be exchanged
But if there has been the conditions are
ba 1l,r IiHarant II ia m
consider and to give Judgment on the
facts. If Germany is right in her con.
tentons, then her terms of peace are
magnanimous and should be instantly
acceded to- if she is wrong they are OBJ
viously impossible. 1t is not feasible to
keep out of consideration how the war
came and what it is about.-New York

The German crown princes prestige,
if he ever possessed much of it, must
have suffered immeasurabIy in Germany
as the result of the successive defeats ad-
ministered to his army on the southern
extremity of the western war front. The
blow delivered by the French during the
latter part of last week was one of the
most severe that could be administered
to a commanding officer. not of the royal
family, and still have the commander re-
tain his position. It is probable that no
one but member of the kaiser's family
could 90 through successive reverses and
maintain his command. However, not
all the blame should be placed on the
shoulders of the young heir apparent,
impetuous and vain-glorious as he I'M
doubtedly is; some of the responsibility
for the defeats must be charged against
the supreme leadership of the army
which caused the withdrawal from Yer
dun of some of the best troops at va
rious times during the past year, either
to hold the defenses on the iSomme or to
push the offensive against Rumania.
With decreased forces and weakened
morale. the crown prince did not him
self possess the individuality to meet the
situation He is not Hindenburg.

UNITED STATES POSITION GROWS
STRONGER.

There are growing indications that the
United States government will be want
ed for some other purpose than merely
acting as messenger between the belllger-
ents. The United States is likely to be
come the big force to aid in the restora-
ton of peace. The time may not be the
present but it will not be far ahead. The
government ought, therefore, to keep
clear of entanglements as much as pos
sible at this time in order to maintain
itself for the greatest usefulness to all
concerned The various belligerent ma
tiops should be informed, if they do not
know it already, that all cable messages
from private sources in the United
States, however much they may be cal
culated to embarrass the government in
its prospective role of peaeemaker, are
entirely unofficial and not representative
of the opinion of the government at all.
Such messages are merely the private
expression of well meaning but misguid-
ed persons. If Tom. Dick and Harry de-
sire to tell the belligerents to stop fight
ing forthwith, they do it on their own
responsibility That should be clearly
understood.

to shipping of the entente allies to be on
guard against German raider on this
