LEPER LETTER-WRITERS.
Thorough Distinction to Keep the
Germs Out of the Mails.

Washington, Nov 5.-When the
United States annexed the Hawaiian
islands it had to take also the island OF
Molokoi, which is noted chiefly as an
insular pest-house- site of the
leper colony.
Leprosy is practically unknown In
this country, except by the reputation
it bears of being the most loathsome OF
diseases. 1t is more dreaded than any
other known form of contagion, but
since this country has gone into the
business of confscating strange peo-
pies it must also take the curses of
their lives.
Marine Hospital Surgeon Carmi-
chael at Honolulu has been wrestling
with the question of disinfecting the
mails. He reports a reasonable, safe
PLAN by which sulphur dioxide is used
at the settlement, and the mail is then
promptly placed on the steamer in
clean and disinfected bags.
At Honolulu the mail will be taken
in these sacks directly to room in
the postoffice used for disinfection
purposes and disinfected with for
maldehyde without removal from the
sacks in which received on the
steamer at the leper settlement. All
letters are perforated or the corners
clipped at the settlement before disin-
lection. No case of leprosy, the Sur
geon reports, has yet been discovered
among the postof1ce employees, al
though non-disinfected mail from the
leper settlement has been handled by
them for many years.

Chipps and Mckenzie were into a
scheme to defraud them, and after
some maneuvering had the case again
brought before Judge Noyes on petit
tion to discharge the receiver. The
court overruled this motion and dis
missed the petition.
The three defendants then petitioned
Judge Noyes for an appeal from the
orders appointing receiver and defn-
ing his duties. The court declined to
grant this appeal, whereupon the de-
PENDANTS, Aug. 27, petitioned Judge
Morrow at San Francisco for the relief
sought. Their petition was granted,
and an order issued directing Alex.
Mckenzie to turn over the mine and
the money to the petitioners. Nc
Kenzie enjoys a fight in Alaska as well
as in North Dakota. He refused to
comply with Judge Morrow's order.
Oct. 10 an order was issued direct
ing the United States marshal OF Cal
ifornia to proceed to Nome and arrest
Mckenzie for contempt of court and
other charges. The writ was return
able yesterday.
Meanwhile Mckenzie has petitioned
the United States supreme court for
writ of certiorari and very strong
brief has been filed in support of Judge
Noye's rulings.
If McKenzie's petition is granted it
will settle the point of just how far
Judge Noyes can go in other similar
cases. Judge Morrow Of San Francisco
says that the proceedings in the case
so far are wholly wrong.

London, Nov. 3.-Gen. Roberts VIII
shortly return to England with ma
iority of his staff. Arrangements are
being made in Capetown to send the
first batch of refugees back to Jonah
nesburg, accommodations being pro-
vided at Bloemfontein for a garrison ~
1000. Nevertheless the activity OF the
boers continues. Oct. 26 commando
of 800 captured a garrison OF 80 men az
Reddersburg, but afterwards released
them. Trains for the south to Pre-
toria are attacked by beers almost dali
lv. Oct. "a the burghers occupied
Koffyfontein. On the other hand, Gen'
Knox has inflicted a reverse on Gen.
De Vets forces near Parys, capturing
two guns, one of them a weapon lost
by the British in the Sannas Post az
fair. The daily tale of British casual
ties is heavy. During Octobe the
the British lost 1877 killed in action
including Is officers. II Of whom died
of their wounds, 367 VINO
died of disease, % who died of acct
dents, 81 who were captured or
missing, a total almost equal to the
monthly average for the duration or
the war. The Daily Express publishes
a sensational statement that the boer
revival is more serious than has hith-
erto been believed, that in consequence
Roberts return is likely to be still fur
Their postponed. It says also that no
considerable party of troops will re-
turn before January or February, while
regimental drafts from England will
continue and 5000 horses will be sent
out. The paper definitely declares the
beers are we'll armed, abundantly sup
piled with ammunition and that the
campaign is likely to last another six
months In best informed quarters,
however, it is asserted that there is no
ground for the pessimism of the Daily
Express.

SWEETHEARTS MUST WAIT.
Because Only Unmarried Girls Shall
Christen Naval Vessels.

Boston, Nov "a tradition OF che
navy to the effect that unmarried girls
must christen it's ships has interferred
with the love affairs of Miss Ruth
Lawrence of New York and Miss Lucy
Shaler Marlborough of Philadelphia.
Miss Lawrence will be free Wednes-
day after she breaks a bottle OF cham
payne over the bow of the new ter
pedo-boat destroyer Lawrence at Wey-
mouth. The destroyer Macdonough,
which Miss Macdonough is to chr1sten,
will not be launched for a month.
The government selected the two
young women because by relationship
to naval heroes after whom the boats
are named they are entitled to the
honor to christening the vessels.
Both were engaged to be married, and
both insisted, when their sweethearts
urged them to set early dates for the
weddings, that not until the boats
which bore their names had leaped
into the ocean would they change their
own names.
Miss Lawrence is daughter OF
Judge Lawrence of the Supreme Court
of New York. Miss Macdonough IS a
popular member of society in the
Quaker city.

JUDGES DISAGREE
Noyes and Morrow in Conflict Over
Mining Matter.

NoyeS anc MORROW IN COnfICt over
Mining Matter.
Minneapolis, Nov. 6.-Judge Arthur
H Noyes OF Minneapolis, who was ap-
pointed last June to the United States
federal bench in Alaska, has cIashed
with Judge Morrow of the United
States circuit court OF appeals of the
ninth district in very important case
The supreme court OF the United States
will probably decide which of these two
learned judges is right. The question
at issue involves the title to a mining
claim worth more than $1,000,OOO and
possession OF gold dust and quartz OF
about 100000. AT present Alex. Nc
Kenzie has possession OF the mine and
the dust, and he is due in San Fran
cisco and is to appear at once in charge
OF the United States marshal before
Judge Morrow.
Judge Noyes in his first decision OF
any Importance has been overruled by
Judge Morrow. The history OF this
highly sensational case in brief is this:
Last June mining expert, Robert
Chips, brought suit in Alaska against
Jaft Lindberg, Erick Lindholm and
John Brynteson to recover possession
Of certain valuable placer mining prop
erty on Anvil creek, Nome district,
known as Discovery mine. Chips also
began suit in equity, asking for an ac-
counting for gold dust and quartz in
hands Of these three miners The hear
ing came on before Judge Noyes, and
July % he issued an order appointing
Alexander Mckenzie, a noted North
Dakota politician, as receiver. Nc
Kcnzie qualified, and undertook ito take
charge of the mine, and after some
fighting, both legal and otherwise, he
succeeded.
The defendants set up the claim that

Dynamite Explosion Causes Twelve
Deaths and Many Injuries.

Dynamite Explosion Causes Twelve
Deaths and Many Injuries.
Philippi, w. Va, Nov. 4.-One Of the
greatest calamities in the history Of
Barbour county occurred early yester-
day morning at the mines of the
Southern Coal and Transportation COM
pany at Berrysburg, when an explo-
sion Of dynamite wrecked a portion of
the mine, resulting in the death of at
least IL miners and injuring several
others. The explosion was so great
that mules were killed at the mouth of
the mines and cars were blown 40 feet
from the track. The dead were horri-
bly, mutilated, portions of legs, arms
and trunks being thrown about pro-
miscuously. The explosion was prob
ably the result of an accidental dis
charge of dynamite caused perhaps by
the conclusion of blast.

Boston, Nov. 3.-The Globe prints an

his Withdrawal in favor of Bryan, the
signers being Prof. Frank Parsons
president of the National Public Own
ership league; B. o. Flower, founder OF
the Arena; EIlwood Pomeroy, presi-

society; and Dr. G. w. Calvin, all per-

all believers in cooperative common
wealth, but are of the opinion that It's
advent will be fastened by Bryan's
election. The signers declare Bryan
represents the movement against mo-
nopoly, that it is better to take the
first step towards improved conditions
than no step at ALL They claim a vote
for Bryan is the first practicable step
toward cooperative commonwealth,
though neither Bryan nor the demo
cratic party may realize the fact.

in Kentucky he was tried, convicted
and sentenced to be hung, but the gov
ernor committed his sentence to life
Imprisonment and afterwards par
dOned him.
