bequeathed her property to her son, Fred
erick j. Vetter. The will was made in
1893, but in 1896, four months before she
died, Mrs. Vetter executed deed of gift,
conveying what property she had to her
son. The property consisted of real estate
on Market street, near Sixth, and of a
residence on Fell street.
Since Mrs. Vetter's death Rosine Grant,
a sister of the deceased, has filed petition
asking that n. Jacobs be appointed ad-
mlnistrator of the estate in question.
Yesterday F. j. Vetter filed paper pro-
testing against Jacobs appointment and
declaring that Ros1ne Grant has no rights
IN the matter which need nrotection.

But Appetite for a Holiday
Dinner May Delay Treat
ment.
LEPERs IN FOUR CLASSES.
Much Interest and Curiosity Displayed
by the Lepers at the
Unpacking.

Five big boxes ornamented outside and
inside with mystic Japanese characters
were dumped at the Pesthouse door yester-
day morning.
They mutely announced the long
delayed arrival of the DR.. Goto anti
Ieprosy specific for which the fourteen
lePers there have been patiently waiting
for so many days. The course of treat
ment will now soon begin.
City Physician A. P. O'Brien arrived
soon after the medicine did. He and
Superintendent J. P. Heating of the Pest
house, when the boxes had found final
place of storage in the nurses room in the
smallpox ward, opened one of the boxes.
Curious and odorless little brown pills
by tie bucketful, bushels of small chips OF
what seems to be bark of faint aud pecu-
liar odor, and bushels of half crushed and
powdered yellow bark, were exposed to
light for the first time since they left the
land of the Mikado. The small chips first
described are to make tea with, and the
other so-called chips are to go into the
baths with the fepers. The Chinese
woman, Annie, one of the worst cases
of leprosy in the Pesthouse, watched the
opening of the box and inspected the
three preparations of the cure with great
interest.
The packages are put up in the neat
Japanese manner. Each package con-
tains instructions in Japanese and Eng
lisn.
DIR. o. Brien prepared a schedule of doses
to direct the nurses and posted it on the
wall. The lepers are all designated by
name, and the quantity OF pills and tea
and the mum Der of baths is about the same
in each. The schedule looks something
like this:
