DIR. WINSLOW ANDERSON WRITES
OF LEPROSY.
Says There Is Nothing in the Goto
Treatment-A Recent Cure Men
tioned-His Ideas of Relief.

/ am satisfied that Goto's so-called
treatment is entirely empirical, with
out the slightest scientific foundation,
and, as every educated physician who
firms, it is absolutely without any
merit in the treatment of leprosy. The
so-called temporary benefit results
merely from the cleanliness obtained
by the frequent bathing and the tonic
treatment, which could better be es-
tabished by scientific indictments.
More recently (.ugust, 1S96) a DR..
Thomas Holmes of Brooklyn, n. Y,
described in the daily press as "an
aged physician" has discovered cure
(?) for leprosy. He incloses his pa
tient in a glass case, into which he
also introduces certain gaseous vap-
ors, into the composition of which sui
phur enters largely This vapor is
supposed to kill the bacilli. When it
is remembered that before leprosy is
tive alterations of the tissues or path
illogical affections of the nerves the
| absurdity of the cure" is at once
manifest.
A possible cure for leprosy exists in
| using the antitoXine-an alkoloidal eX-
tract--of the bacillus of leprosy itself.
A year or more ago the present bac-
teriologist of the Hawaiian Islands
DR.. l.. +. Alvarez, in discussing the
subject with the writer concluded to
try the antitoxine of the leprous bac-
ILL hypodermically at the leper sta
! tion at Kalihi. This treatment / saw
carefully and scientifically applied on
the islands during my recent visit, and
if there are any scientific data for the
use of vaccination as protective
against smallpox, Pasteur's treatment
of hydrophobia, Rocks treatment OF
tuberculosis, Behring and RouN's
treatment of dyphtheria, etc, then
certainly leprosy may be benefited
and cured by using the antltoXine of
the bacillus itself. One great obstacle
is the separation of the antitoxne
from the toxic elements in the lep-
rous toXines extracted from the leper
bacilli, but this can e overcome by
patient investigation, and do not de,
/ spair of finding scientific remedy
for this dreadful malady.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Queens
speech in proroguing Parliament first
mentions the advance on Dongola, and
then says: THE condition in some
portions of the Turkish Empire con-
tinues to furnish cause for much anx-
iety. At present Crete is the prin-
cipal center of disturbances. / have

lishment of a system of government
which would be as equitable and ac-
ceptable to both Christians and Mus
sulman.'
The speech refers to the rioting of
the Mashonas and Matabele, pays trib-
ute to the courage and self-reliance of
the settlers, and adds The efforts
of my troops are telling on the resist
ance of the rebels, who, / trust, will

STEARNS RACERS.
Accounts of Sextuplet Against Trains
Iieceived.

Messrs. Z. O. Hall and son received
by the last mail from the States
handsome circular of the Stearns BIZ
cyle manufacturers giving fine ac-
count of the seXtuplet race with a fast
mail train on the New York Central
Railway on July 25 and 2S. In the
first race the machine came near being
run into by second train on a parallel
track and the riders had a very narrow
escape with their lives.
Three days later, on a second at
tempt the feat of running away from
a flying express train was accom-
plished in the presence of hundreds of
spectators. The train was, however,
not under full headway when the start
was made, giving the six strapping
fellows time to get lead. Officials of
the road took a great interest in the
race and had the four-feet space be-
tween the tracks, on which the sen
tuplet was to run, nicely leveled and
packed. Tie second attempt was made
the same day with the Empire State,
the fastest locomotive on the road,
and resulted in the complete cham
pionship of the sextuplet. Several eX-
cellent photographs of the wheel and
train were taken.

German Officers Fight an Old Style
Duel at Shanghai

VICTORIA, b. c., Aug. 1.-TWO Ger
man officers employed in drilling
CHINESE soldiers at Nanking, who had
y 81 ght disagreement some time ago,
agreed to resort to arms to settle the
matter. With their seconds they pro-
ceeded to Shanghai, secured the ser
vices Of doctor, and fought it out in
the baci, yard of a well known German
on the Biibbling Well road. The com
batantS were Count Newhaus and
Capt. Hoffman, and they satisfied their
oldfas,lioned orthodox style in the
presence of their respective seconds
and circle of admiring friends.
The duel was fought according to
rules recognized in German military
circles as governing such delicate mat
tiers. The combatants were very much
in earnest, and after much cutting,
slashing and thrusting Capt. Hoffman
was slightly wounded in the sword
hand, but he promptly got even with
his adversary by running him through
the tleshy part of the arm. The sec
onds then declared that the combat
had proceeded sufficiently far. Honor
was satisfied, and the gallant officers,
who, IA moment before, were knocking
up fireworks around each other, made
up their differences, and all ended hap

CALLS COUNTED.
How the Charge for Telephone Is
Made at Washington.
Washington Post.)

'
The Chesapeake and Potomac Tel
ephone company has inaugurated the
plan of supplying telephone service
under what is known as the measured
service system. Under this system tel
ephone service will be supplied pat
rons from $50 per annum up, allowing
them from 600 calls per annum up to
any number. Should the subscriber
use during any year greater number
of calls than he has contracted for, ad-
ditional calls will be sold him at from
5 tp O. cents each; the price per call
decreasing in proportion to the num-
ber contracted for. For instance, a
subscriber contracting for GOO calls
per annum would pay nine cents for
each call over that number, while one
contracting for 1000 calls would only
pay five cents for each call above that
number. There will be no charge for
incoming calls, so that the subscriber
who sends but five messages, or less,
per day, would pay very much less per
annum than under the fiat rate at
present in use. 1t is optional, how
ever, with the subscriber as to which
class of service he takes. The equip
ment used with this service is of the
most improved kind, being copper
metallic circuit, in connection with
which is the latest style of solid back

witness in Chinese. The answers came
back on the same circuit. After long

was standing at the corner of Pennsylvania

ing without bell.
'',rhe city Is now assured Of peace and
quiet" said the attorney 1.-THE police have
at last began arresting these vicious, brutal
young men and women who persist In rid
ing without a bell and lantern. 1t Is good
thing for them to have something to occupy
their time. For, while they were compelled
to prosecute the poor saloon keepers. who
only wanted to earn an honest living by
selling liquid hell on Sunday. Then there
was a time when they made an occasional
arrest simply because man persisted In
driving fiery horse down some principal
street at race-track speed. But these times
have now passed, and the saloon keeper may
turn an honest penny and. at the same time.
turn out drunkards, ana the owner OF fast
horse may place the lives of common insig-
nificant humanity In jeopardy-it would not
make much difference II a few were killed
but this vicious habit OF riding along the
street on a bicycle without a bell must be
stopped; yes, 1t must be stopped. If it takes
the entire police force OF the city to do It..
There is another thing, TOO. Some of the
riders go so fast that they have no time to
stop and add TO the honest earnings Of the
saloon keepers. They must be made to make
regular stops wherever they see beer sign.
Yes, : am in favor of reform and do not
want to see the honest saloon keeper pre-
vented from selling little beer on Sunday.
when the policemen could do much better
occupy their time watching for the vicious
