patch's Interesting Correspondent.
London Edition New York Herald.l
Eli Perkins arrived in London from
America yesterday. A reporter met him
sightseeing at the National Gallery, when
he seemed tired and was breathing hard.
'eYou seem to be all out of breath. What
has done it-this hurrying from gallery to

"Oh, no" said the American; II lost my
breath down to Morley's."
"How?"

right when / sat down, but when the waiter
told me the price it took my breath away.
1t will take a dozen mutton-ple dinners in
the Strand to bring it back again."
Mr.. Perkins, before coming to London,
spent several days over at Truro and PEN

Lands End country, he SAID:

subject to sudden climatic changes. 1t is a
blizzard from Iceland one day, and hot
simeon from Algiers the next. Sometimes
the weather changes in second. Now, the
other morning got little provoked at a
Penzance landlord, and picked up piece
of ice and threw il at him. I'm sorry did
it now."
"Why? Did 1t hurt him?'
Eyes," said Mr.. Perkins regretfully, "it
did hurt him. You see, as the piece of ice

the ice melted in transit and the hot water
scalded that poor landlord all over the back
of his neck.

stone wall, and fattened them out as thir

"What did they do with them?" inter

feet bound for the coast Of Barbary. On
his return to England he was stricken with

of himself as irebrand in hell. On coming
to himself he cried out, "I AM damnedp'
This incident determined the trend of his
future life. He became melancholy and
continued so for Is months. At the end Of
that time, as he himself records, he was
wakened out of a sleep and heard voice

sal voice, which penetrated through me
with divine power, saying, Take courage,
my son, thy sins are forgiven thee.

he was pardoned by Louis XIV. After that

village where Father Damien died. "Here, ]"
she says, 1--WE visited young Englishman,
a leper, who was even then entering on his
agony. This was one of the most heartrend-
ing sights of the island. There, in a little
white-draped bed by the open lattice, famed
BY the southern breeze laden with the fra
GRANGE of the jasmine and honeysuckle, lay
the sick man, the skin drawn tightly over
his bones, one side of his lace entirely eaten
away by cancer, his eyes bleared and sight
less, his hands deiormed, his breath coming
in quick short gasps."
Sister Rose Gertrude says that the lepers
appear to enjoy lie in their own way. She
met several on horseback, and was assured
that in the settlement OF ], ,203 lepers there
we're 800 horses provided by the Govern

The Moravian mission school whose doors
were closed upon De Bonneville, as stated

Mrs. Phoebe A. Hamford, of New Haven,
Conn. will read an original poem written
for the occasion. A fine musical programme
has been prepared, and souvenirs illustra-
tive OF the event will be distributed
% each of the visitors. If it is
fair day. refreshments will be served
outside on the grassy bank in front
of the mansion, where a powerful
spring of ice cold water bursts from the solid
rock and forms a creek too wide to step over:
Other interesting features will be introduced
into the ceremonies. and then in the cool OF
the evening the carriages will be resumed
