LEPRosY IN DENMARK.
Prevalence Of the Disease There IL
Attributed to Unslsanllasss
anA CasslsssAess,

United States Consul Victor E. Mel
son, at Bergen, Norway, has sent a re-
port to the marine hospital service in
which he says that the prevalence Of
lepfosy in Denmark must be imputed
to the uncleanliness and carelessness
of the people, says a Washington re-
port. He says there are six leprosy
patients there, OF whom four, are in
Copenhagen. In Denmark leprosy
does not belong to those few diseases
which are subjected to public treat
ment. Iceland has Its own lepr osy law.
At the Laugarnoes hospital. IN Iceland,
established by the odd fellows order
there were 81 patients received during
1890, and OF these IS are now dead and
only two have been discharged as fully
recovered. Relapses were usual In
leprosy cases. The death rate has been
fearfully high, which IL somewhat of
set BY the fact that that was the first
year Of the hospitals work, and the
worst Of IceIand's population hrst
were admitted.
The report says that DR.. Armareuer
Hansen. of Bergen, has found the lep-
rosy bacillus, but its antagonist is not
yet discovered. The Icelanders are de-
elared TO be incop siderately imprudent,

CARRY MUSICAL CLUBS.

"M0iee" late yllss.

The monotony Of travelling a beat
has not been able to drive from the
souls OF all Chicago policemen the love
OF music. The airs stratning for utter
snce would not be denied. but the reg
uiations are strictly against lumber
ing up the pockets with musical in
strumentA, says the American.
A way has been devised to meet the
xtuation, however. according to Chief
Of Police O'Neill. He said:
There are several men on the Do
lice force who have transferred their
clubs into musical instruments. A few
whirls OF the turning machine and the
thing is done. There are men on the
Chicago police force whose musical
abilities entitle them to consideration,
and among them are . few who can

"Not At ALL" he said. II cannot say
that 1t improves the value OF the club,
but no great harm IL done. And the
officer seems to value the club more,

hotels Of any of the great capitals
Of the world. To-day 1t has some Of
the best. People now live In hotels
during the season instead Of taking
town houses. Those who still have
London mansions on their hands
patronise the hotels for meals. Not

the fire was brought under con.

count of the fire the Sunday
