If they ever get a deep water harbor on
the Texas coast, Wichita is going to be the
biggest city in Kansas.-KansaS City Star.
The only objection we have to the
statement is that it makes a present con
ditiOn of fact contingent upon a future
event that may OF may not transpire.
A better form would be, Wichita, the
biggest city in Kansas, will far outstrip
all the other cities Of the southwest when
the Texas deep harbor is opened to the
worlds traffic, because it viii be the
great supply depot for exports, as well
as the inland entrepot for supplies Of
FOREIGN goods.

A PERSISTENT BEGGAR.
The Laughable Experience OF an Ameri-
can Traveller in Queenstown.

The Laughable Experience OF an AmerI-
can Travelcr in Queenstown.
A recent traveller in Ireland was ac-
costed by professional beggar, in all
essential respects closely resembling
the Witch of Endor. She was lean and
evidently hungry. She stood in an at
tltudc expressive Of extreme humility,
with her hands clasped before her. She
said nothing, but her attitude was a
very beseeching one. Thinking from
hcr looks that she was deserving of
charity, tho traveller said to her:
"Now, madam, if give you shilling
will you promise not to follow me
around the streets during my stay in
Queenstown"
Heaven come down upon ye, sir; may we
niVer know want, and may ye'er wife
nivcr attind ye'er funeral"
She received the shilling in her
wrinkled palm, and as long as the trav-
elcr was within hearing she called down
blessings upon him. He remained in
Queenstown one week. During that
time wherever he went he saw the mis-
cradle spectacle of tho poor beggar. Her
looks always asked for aims. This went
on until 1t became unDearable to the
traveller. Ono morning 40 he came out
of the hotel he saw her standing on the
opposite side of the street in the usual
pitiful attitude. To put it mildly he
was vexcd. He decided to put an end
to tho nuisance Crossing the street
rapidly to where the woman stood, he
said:
MADAM, didn't you agree not to fol-
low me after gave you the shilling2"
"Faith, did, SIR"
"Well, why in thunder do you follow
mo SOP"
The woman smiled and replied:
"Sure, sir, It's not me that's follerin
ye; it's ye that's follerin' me-"
The traveller gave her sixpence.

The disease as known there is that form
of leprosy called Greek elephantiasis, !"
and the sisters, physicians and attendants
have lost all fear of contagion. One wo-
man has washed all the clothes of the lep-
ers for many years and smiles at the idea
of danger. Yet the disease is most horri-
bic. 1t begins with minute tubercles in the
skin, which often increase to the size of a
haZelnut; then the flesh begins to scale off.
and an ichorous discharge is frequent If
the patient lives long enough the fingers
and toes, hands and feet and even parts of
the arms and legs successfully slough off:
nose, eyes, ears, lips, all the prominent or
gans, go in like manner, and that which
was human becomes a creature too horrible
for description. From the start there is
often similar decay in the moral nature.
till the patient loses the sense of morals
or decency and in many cases retains no
feeling of humanity.
Strange to say, the physicians have not
been able to discover the cause or do any,
thing of Importance towards a cure. In
old stories of travel and adventure the fact
is alluded to that there were lepers in New
foundland and on the adjacent mainland.
and in more than one romance mention is
made of strangely afflicted outcasts in that
region. There is tradition that in 1755
ship from Syria was wrecked on the Glou-
cester coast, that the crew mingled with
the French of the locality and that leprosy
appeared in the families in which they
married When the government first made
inquiry the physicians reported that the
small population was so isolated that all
the French were related to each other. A
later board of examiners suggested that
eating putrid fish produced the disease.
At all events it is there, and but slowly de-
creasing, though the government since 1874
has made the most strenuous exertions to
confine and stamp it out"
