Lepers in New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS, June 5.-The subject
of leprosy has been brought promi-
nently to public attention by a report of
the board of health that there are
number of persons suffering with the
disease engaged in the ordinary occu-
patlons of life in the city. Some
are bakers and ice-cream dealers. They
seem to be on the increase. The last
legislature provided for the erection OF
hospital in the city for iepers, but
there is strong protest from persons
who argue that it should be in some
secluded place.

men colonists to settle in the South and
become American citizens. This pro-
posed immigration Of the followers of
Mohammet from India contemplates
much more than the simple formation
OF colonies and the purchase of lands.
1t means the building of picturesque
cities and towns upon the model set by
the Saroiic architecture Of the eighth
and ninth centuries in India.
1t is proposed to reproduce in Amer
lea some OF the beautiful mosques
built in India during the palmy DAYS of
the mogul emperors. Those to be built
in the smaller colonies of the South
will probably be plain and unpreten-
tious, though following in general
outlines the oriental idea and spirit.
They will be constructed. probably, of
cheap material at first. and later on, as
the colonists begin to prosper under the
American government, more beauty and
gorgeousness will be apparent in these
simple temples.
The first mosque of Importance will

many other important cities. American
converts will contribute largely to the
expense of its % maintenance. Mr.. Webb
positively asserts that the project OF
immigration of colonies from India will
surely be readily realized, though the
English government may object to the
departure of so many tax paying people
as will be included in the flower of the
NOLAN medans who Will immigrate.
Whether England does or not how
ever, he says, the Mohammedans will
come.
Mr.. Webb does not anticipate any
obstacle on the part of the United
