Its Introduction Into New South wsle

ITS Introduction Into Now South wsio,
by Chinese Immigrants.
The British Colonial Office has re-.
ccived dispatch to the effect that
leprosy has put In an appearance
among the Chinese In New South
Wales, and that the cry for the prohi
bition OF Chinese immigration, which
had subsidized for the moment, has been
again aroused by the popular dread oil
perhaps tho most horrible disease
which afllicts humanity, and in view
OF the large number OF Chinese OF the
poorest classes included among the
immigrants the news that some of them
have Il leprous taint in their blood is
not surprising, inasmuch ms lcprosy
prevails more or less in many parts OF
China, but especislly in the district
around the great ports Of Canton and
Foochow. The medical reports OF the
foreign customs refer frequently to
the subject. 1t is said that five
great opidemics have been re-
corded since the fifteenth century.
1t is spreading now 10 districts
which were previously comparatively
zee from the scourge. The spread OF
the disease is due to the increased
communication by means of steamers
along the coast and up TO the Yangtszi
river. In 1871 it prevailed around
Annoy, and in 1881 the local medical
officer Of the commons said II was
common in Canton and had laid firm
,.1. Il nj h. TO,
the Yangtszi, has had an evil reputa-
tion for the prevalence of leprosy, and
later it has increased around Shang-
hal. The Chinese themselves appear
to have pretty accurate notions about
leprosy. They attribute 1t TO infection,
defective nutrition and climate. They
employ isolation and better diet as
remedies. They distinguish five classes
Of the disease, and it is remarkable
that In China, as in India, there are
more male than female lepers. In In
dia the policy of the Government in the
treatment OF lepers is avowedly based
on the proposition that medical science
has. rs yet, discovered no remedy for
the disease. That policy is practically
to leave it alone, but to encourage the
grant of medical relief to lepers in
voluntary hospitals and special asy-
lums. To anyone who has travelled in
India, among Indians and other
Orientals, the marvel is that so many
are free from the taint of lcprosy, see
ing that lepers go about like the or
dinary people, marry and are given in
marriage. Fortunately, though. like
most other diseases, leprosy will only
flourish in congenial soil, and it is
rare that the average European suffers
from accidental contact. London Cor.

ThE TRAIN STOPPED
And Mr.. Burnham's Guest Got OFF
at Pine Point.

Mr.. George Burnham is said to be unriV-
allied as a concoctor of succulent clam chow
der. We have little doubt that ne would De
willing to place one of his chowders against
that of any of the most celebrated COOKS OF
CLAIMS in Maine. Some days ago he invited
a number of Portland gentlemen, who know
something about clans, including the genial
representative from the First District, to
partake of chowder of his preparation at
Pillsburv's, Pine Point. The invitation was
gladly accepted, for when the great corn
hacker give, an entertainment he does it in
royal style.
In order to accommodate all parties 1t was
deemed advisable that they should take the
1885 D. m. Boston 81 Maine express,
but that train does not stop at Pine
Point. Accordingly note was sent to
General Manager FuIber asking that the
train might be allowed to stop at that station
on the day in question and narrating the cir
cumstances. An answer was returned that
the request could not be granted. The gen.
tlemen therefore decided to stop at Old Or
chard and take carriages from there to Pine
Point Before the time, however, they re-
ceiyed word from Mr.. Burnham that the
train would stop at Pine Point and to get
out there. Accordingly they took the 12.55
express AS the train neared Pine Point
sharp, quick whistles from the engine were
heard, the brakes were applied, and the train
slowed up at the station. The party of gen.
tlemen got off and as they did so single in
vidual standing on the platform, stepped
round by the rear of the train and walked
down to one of Mr.. Burnham's factories. The
conductor not finding anybody or anything
out of the way, the train proceeded. 1t after
wards appeared that there is rule Of the
road that the 1856 train does not stop at
Pint Point unless would-be passenger buys
ticket at that station when the station
agent flags the train and it stops for the
passenger to get aboard. Now Mr.. Burnham
being aware of that fact, sent one of the OBJ
eratives in his factory at that place to buy a
ticket at the station. The operative did SO
and the agent tagged the train. The train
stopped, Mr.. Burnnam's guests alighted, and
the operative returned to the factory with a
ticket for Boston. good for six months, in
his pocket.

Test IL Yourself,

The ladies of our city are just now evinc-
ing deep interest regarding the purity of
the baking powder they are using. The fol-
lowing simple test can be made by any one
in a few moments, and this most important
question settled. We advise every house.
keeper to give it a trial:
Mix in tin cup, or other small suitable
vessel. one heaping teaspoonful of the pow
der with one teaspoonful of water, or a little
more water if required to wet the powder to
the consistency of paste. Place it over hot
nre, stir to prevent burning. and let it boil
rapidly for few moments. At intervals
lift the cup from the fire, and smell, and no.
tice whether you detect the odor Of ammonia
In the steam that rises. Pure baking powder
will not give the falntest odor of ammonia.
