A SAN FRANCISCAN IS
CURED OF THE LEPROSY

The Examiner says: George Pepeloy
thirty-fve years leper, has been cured
of the malady that through all the ages
has been regarded as beyond the reach
of medical skill. During the past nine
years he has been an inmate of the San
Francisco Pesthouse. Before coming
here he was for a long ting shut up in
a similar hospital at New Orleans, final
ly making his escape,
There can be no question that he was
actually afflicted with leprosy, having
inherited the disease from his mother
and nobody who ever saw him at the
institution on Twenty street
would have any doubt about it,
The Board OF Health has declared
Pepeloy to be fully cured, after thorough
examination and extended study of his
case by such surgeons and physicians
as Dr. James W. Ward, now president
of the Health Board DR.. Howard Nor
row and DR.. Fred c. Carney. Although
the utmost precautions are taken to keep
lepers away from communication with
the general public, even as in past cen
turtles the victims OF the living death
were isolated. compelled to wear long
gowns and hoods and TO carry wooden
clappers for the purpose OF sounding
warning that they were lepers, the
Board OF Health has released the long
ImprIs0nel nallent and allowed him 10

Hawaii, where, though not always treat
ed like brother, he has Jared better
at the hands of the Anglo axons than
anywhere else on earth. He comes to
us by the ten thousands. Part of him
returns home; part stays The part that
goes carries back new wants and opens
the way for American commerce. 1t
is our business that he take Christ with
him. That business has been well be-
gun, for already Hawaii has given Japan
one of her three leading Christian lay
men. Already we are sending over
young men with hearts aflame to carry
the gospel to Japan, China, the Philip
pines, Pacific coast, anywhere. You have

The Dcs Moines Register says One
OF the most interesting addresses be-
fore the Congregational Home Mission
AIRY society yesterday was that OF Rev
Dorcmus Scudder, secretary OF the
Hawaiian board. who came all the way
from the far off islands to present its
needs and opportunities for missionary
work. His address was a most eloquent
review Of the missionary history OF
the islands and he paid splendid trib-
ute to the early missionary heroes who
planted the first seeds of Christianity
and nurtured them. He pointed out
also that while at one time, in 1866,
32.5 per cent of the Hawaiian population
was enrolled in Christian churches, in
1000 only 10 per cent was so enrolled;
he showed further that in 1860 81 per
cent OF the entire population OF the
islands was in Christian churches while
now only ! per cent is so enrolled. He
declares that in a large measure this
alarming decrease was due to the fact
that America Taxed in its missionary
work.
Mr.. Scuddcr made warm plea for
renewal of Congregational activity
in the Hawaiians and re-establishment
OF Congregational prestige. He advan-
ced many reasons for working this field,
not merely for its local good, but be-
cause through Hawaii is a gateway for
reaching Asia. In this connection he
paid an interesting tribute to the Chi
nese. He said:
CHINESE NOT so BAD.
But Our opportunity widens far be-
yond the boundaries of Christian fellow
ship and race assimilation within the
territory. Hawaii simply can not live
for itself alone. Its destiny is to at
feet the whole Pacific world of which
it is the center. AS that world halts
at this God-made rest house will the
influence of the islands be recreative
or destructive? Is the touch to be that
of Christ or of the beast? The multi
tudinous saloons and gambling dens of
Honolulu are fighting life and death
battle to answer this query their way
We want your help, fathers and brothers
in Christ, to answer it Gods way. Our
touch is wider than YOU think. 1t reaches
far across the blue Pacific into thousands
of hamlets in China and Japan. Re
member the farming class of the latter
empire is almost untouched by the gos-
pei at home. We have the most pro-
gressive OF the children of its farms
and fields at our doors. We love these
,Asiatics as you do not because we know
them. We have never treated the Chi
nese with the scorn and mcanness, the
stonings and murderous mobbings of
the mainland Hawaii gave them her
daughters and opened to them her
citizenship. They have them repaid the
confidence a hundred fold America

CASE ALMOST MIRACLE.
Nothing is known to the doctors about
the means or method of the cure that
astonishes them. The credit is not
theirs. Since miracles we're performed
on earth, the medical men have regarded
leprosy as absolutely beyond the posi-
bility of cure. Pepeloy the subject,
says that he cured himself and that
the healing is the result of a discovery
never made before He says that all
lepers can be cured; but he has suffered
so long, and is now so helpless in the
world to which he is almost stranger,
that he feels he has a right to make
financial profit out of his secret So for
the present the formula is his alone.
"Pepeloy is cured" said Dr. Ward
last night His case has been looked
into by physicians whose standing and
learning cannot be doubted, and there
is no question about the matter"
DIR. George Purlensky, who has medi-
cal charge OF the lepers at the pesthouSe
says that in all certainty a cure has
practically been effected. The disease
he thinks may not be fully eradicated
from the patients system, and he is TO
examine Pepeloy once a month. He
agrees with the other doctors, how
ever, that the lcper has been so thor
oughly healed that there is no danger
OF the disease being spread by him and
that no trace Of the leprosy can now be
detected.
Pepeloy is about forty years OF age,
He was born IN Honolulu.

Later details from the Garden Isle
show that it was not through drunk
enness that the murder took place on
the 25th of last month. 1t seems that
it arose over a quarrel concerning
cards. One man claimed that the other
cheated. whereupon the latter stabbed
his countryman who died the next day.
The murderer Is still at large.
