LEPROsY IN PHILIPPINES.
Islands, According 20 Fran
ciacan Fathers.

An appended report to Gen. Mac
Arthur's review of the civil affairs Of
the Philippines for the last fiscal year
gives some rather startling facts re-
garding the introduction and preva-
lence of leprosy in the islands. Ac-
cording to the estimates of the Fran
ciscan fathers, says Maj. Guy l.. Edie,
the writer of the report, there are no
less than 10000 lepers in the archi-
pelago, the major portion of these be-
ing in the Viseayas. Leprosy was in
troduced in 1888, when the emperor
Of Japan sent a ship with $50 lepers
on board TO the Philippines as pres
ent to be cared for by the Catholic
priests.
Thus the seed was planted, and as
no practical methods ever were adopt
ed to eradicate the disease or pre-.
vent its spread it has taken firm root
A house-to-house inspection begun
last January found more than 1OC
lepers concealed in dwellings. These
were sent to San Lazaro hospital in
Manila, but many others escaped into
the surrounding country. A commits
sion is now engaged in the work of Sc
lecting a suitable island or islands fo1
the purpose of isolating all the leperi
in the archipelago.

Government VIII rake Measures 20
Develop the tndustry
IN Floridn.

The study Of the sponge fields Of
Florida is TO be undertaken by the
government with view TO developing
an important industry. Florida is the
only part Of the United States pro.
ducing sponges Of a commercial value,
says a Washington report There are
$40 vessels with more than 1000 men
employed in the industry, and It is
estimated that the i90O-i0O1 crop will
have a commercial value OF $3.50, 600.
sponges are found on the eastern and
western coasts, but are more abun-
dnnt on the western coast, owing to
the equable temperature and moder-
ate depth of the water and the alb
sence of fierce hurricanes
The sponge grounds Of the Gulf Of
Mexico extend from the Florida reefs
to St. Marks and for distance of IS
miles from shore. The best sponges
in color, texture and size are indig-
enous to deep water, and as these
command the highest prices in all
markets the sponging vessels fire.
quently work for days together out OF
sight of land. There would seem
to be no reason why a hourishine
industry should nb be built up. The
government has been so successful in
the various efforts it has made of this
character that much is to be expected
of its contemplated work
