DEATH FAR PREFERABLE

bic Vice and Fit.

BERLIN, June 13-Kate Marsden, who
is interested In project to establish a
leper colony in Siberia. has arrived here
from St Petersburg en- route to the United
States. In an interview she gave graphic
description of her six weeks tour Of tie
leper colonies of Siberia She says that as
soon as any person shows signs OF .he dis
ease the victim Is at once driven into the
depths of tbs forest, there to live on tree
bark and upon rotten fish. This food Is
furnished by relatives, who deposit 1t at
distance from the miserable and filthy
huts of the victims. The huts are one
half under ground for the sake OF warmth,
and are hundreds OF versts apart, so that
supervision Is impossible.
Miss Marsden and thirty guides were
obliged to cut a path for themselves
through the underground of the forests,
and to proceed in single files. They found
the lepers ill-clad and living IN indescrib-
able filth and vice, dragging out horrible
existence for years, until they die OF dis
ease or starvation. after becoming so
loathsome that they have lost all sem
blance to humanity. Miss Marsden says
that there has been found In Yakutsk a
plant that Is reputed to cure leprosy, but
she has not been able to test 1t as yet. She
intends to return to Yakutsk to establish
Q colony at Veluisk.
