DOGS AMONG THE LEPERs.
The Board of Health OF Moiok"i ""'
Limited the Number to N
to Each Person.

There are about 1000 persons perma-
nently resident at the leper settlement
on the Island of Molokai, and there 10
an average of about five live II llVeis
dogs to each person.
And those statements are explanatoiy
of a number of things. 1t Wouio oe
supposed, in the first place, that there
was some mysterious affinity between
dogs and leprosy, but this is not the
fact. The native, however, has a great
fondness for dogs-and dog-and Dc,
cause of that fondness the NUMBER o.
canine pets at the settlement has IN
creased to such an extent that tne'
have not only become a great nuisance
to those persons on Molokai VINO are
able to restrain their affection for 6
within reasonable limits, but have like
wise become a menace to the lepers
themselves, in that their dogs are III
orally eating them out of house ana
home, says the Honolulu Commercial
Advertiser.
There is, in fact, a constantly 1ncreas-
ing insuficiency, actually felt, in the
paiai ration issued, while the dogs
grow more numerous at regularly re-
curing intervals and more voraclous
day by day. The average native Will
go hungry himself to feed his dog.
More, he will even let his friend &c
hungry to feed his dog. This Is what
might be called an animal weakness,
and works no particular harm where
the native is healthy enough to follow
his bent and eat the dog, in time, thus
cementing his attachment to his pet
permanently, but the people at the set
Element are not inclined to do that-at
least, not enough inclined to do so to
keep down the surplus dogs, and so the
board of health has been compelled to
take a hand in the matter. And this
has become a condition requiring ac-
ton the more i~mperatively because the
dogs, not content with eating up the
paiai OF their owners, have lately taken,
to running in the hills and pulling down
the calves of the herds there and eating
them also, thus cutting into the meat
ration, as we'll as the ration of paiai.
1t was in view Of this condition that
a petition was sent by the lepers to the
board of health praying to have the
number of dogs in the settlement lin
tied, which petition resulted in the pas
sage by the board of a new regulation
limiting the canine possessions Of each
leper to one dog. The board vas not,
however, inclined to be exigent in the
matter. 1t gave the dog until
the first of July to get rid of the surplus.
That should be ample time to prepare
and enjoy a lot Of luaus. And 5000 dogs
would contribute most successfully to
a number of occasions of that kind,
whether as conscious or unconscious
participants in the festivities.
For" as a member of the board Of
health said, when asked about the mat
ter, yesterday, "the dogs have been eat
ing them out of house and home. Now
let them eat the dogs, and that will pre-
serve the balance"

ALLIGATOR PEARS,
A Variety of the Fruit Tint Ii Plen-
tiful ia Porte Rico, But
Scarce Here.

Alligator pears have not grown any
cheaper since Porto Rico became a part
of the United States, and New Workers
cannot see that their favorite summer
salad is any more plentiful than it was
five or six years ago, when the fruit
began to be eaten in this city. There
has been no change in the prices, says
the New York Sun.
The, fruit companies do not import
the alligator pears, curiously enough,
and the supply here is rarely equal to
the demand. Those that come to this
market are brought up by the stew
ards and other employees of the steam
ers that ply between this country and
Porto Rico.
The pears are difficult to keep unless
they are plucked when green and
brought here to ripen. Then they have
not nearly SO much flavor as when thew
are brought here just as they have
begun to ripen.
In this latter cast there is littla Ger.
tainty that they will last for more than
a rev hours after they arrive here. It
IS their extreme perishability hat
prevents the fruit importing compan.
les dealing in them.
In Porto Rico the pears are so abund-
ant as to be practically worthless
Ihey are not appreciated by the ma
tives as they are here.
Most New Workers still eat; them
with French dressing after thew have
beer peeled and cut into slices. Some
persons, however, declare that the real
flavor of the alligator pear is 70 ha
appreciated only when it is eaten win
a little salt. They simply cut thenears
nto two pieces, salt the inside and
eat them with a spoon.
other new ways of eating the mar
are to peel them and after m;rina
them with such salads as lettuce rs,
name or escarole, pour over a French
dressing in which the vinegar nlaxs =
very small part.

aster meant.
Then he started around the hill to
get his bearing for camp. He cared
nothing for his discovery of a few
minutes before, although it was the
richest sight of virgin gold human
eyes ever rested upon; neither did
he care for food which he would not
be able to eat without something to
drink. He took another look up the
hill and wondered if he would ever
see it again. AS nearly as he could
he took his bearings for camp and
started. At every step he felt his
six-shooter dragging him down, so,
unbuckling it, he threw it in a dry
gulch he was crossing at the time
and turned to see how far he was
from the hill. That day was a long
one. He thought of every cool, re-
freshing drink he had ever had. The
hot air he was breathing was whis-
Ting in his ears; he could not swal-
low nor close his mouth, for he would
strangle for want. of air. In this con
dition night found him, staggering

step in the sand and often falling;

he dared not stop. 1t was dark now.

tient was well enough they wanted
him to go to the new field with them;
he begged them to return with him,
and told them of the wonderful dis
covery and the good outfit which was
out on the desert somewhere. AS the
prospector told of the nugget trail
two feet wide, the old man would
look at his wife and raise his shout
ders slowly in a strange way. But
the prospector insisted; he tried in
every way to get them to return
with him. His persistence was the
only thing which would alter. the
smile which persistently played on
the old mans bony features. He
would change the subject by saying
they would come back after visiting
Alamo. There was no choice left the
p~rospector; he accompanied his res
cuers, and in the gold fields he tried
to interest p~rospectors to go with
him; but when he told of the rich
ness of the find they would shrug
their shoulders and look incredulous.
For several months the man who
lived this adventure prospected in
Alamo, in the hope of interesting, in
the desert discovery, some prospect
or-American, Mexican or Indian, he
cared not which-but to no purpose.
He finally located a rich and extern
sive mine, known as the Silent Part
ner, on the north slope of the Santa
Tomas mountains, overlooking the
desert. He worked the mine for
years. But seldom did a day pass
that he did not sit for hours facing
the desert, thinking of that strange
find and its stranger loss.-Overland
