Leprosy in Minnesota and Wisconsin

A Milwaukee physician claims to have
knowledge of cases numerous enough and
well enough defined to make the broad
statement that this section OF the west is, in
common with Louisiana, California and
other regions, center of leprosy. From
the letter OF the Minnesota secretary
of the state board OF health. ii appears that
the dis Ease has been and is at present care
fully watched, and is on the decrease. It
is extremely doubtful whether this so called
]eprosy is contagious or epidemic. DR.. Hew-
It'll says: Permit me to state that from 1872
the date of our organization, this board have
had standing committee on Norwegian
leprosy, and that said committee have con-
stantlv watched The disease since. Last
fall DIR. Gronvold, the chairman of that
committee issued circular letter to our
Norwegian physicians in this state and to
the clergy, asking for Information. From
twenty replies but three cases additional to
those already under observation were re-
ported, and one OF them doubtful. In
1899 10 Prof. Book, distln-
guished Norwegian physician, came to this
country to investigate this disease Dr.
Glonvold assisted him In his search. He
found in the northwest eighteen cases of the
disease, and In every case but one the dis
ease was hereditary. The last could not be
traced. That committee are still at work,
and no opportunity will be lost to keep
thoroughly posted as to the existence and
spread OF the disease in our state. As will

A Thrilling Experience.

A gentleman living at Tiffany, near James
town, Oak. in letter to triend in St Paul
says regarding the 18Th inst:
The cyclone has left twenty or more families In
this neighborhood homeless. The house occupied
with my family was taken up, poised in the air a
moment. when it was carried ten rods to the south
east and landed on top Of I. wagon. Until
the house lit we were unharmed and
the furniture not disturbed; but in an
instant the whole building except the floor, was
drawn into the air, and We with the furniture were
swept in one jumbled mass along the ground; but
none Of US were badly Injured, though somewhat
bruised. All the furniture was broken in frag-
ments, and our clothing torn 10 shreds Rain and
hail fell In torrents all this time, and threatened
to beat our brains out Not vestige Of my sta
bic was left where 1t once stood. The horses were
found uniniured in slough three miles southeast
of where the stable mad been located. Ours Is the
experience OF many others in smaller way. Near
