Altho the brothers, who are princi-
pally from Belgium, mingle freely IN
the course of their work among the
lepers, the brothers themselves take pre-
cautions against contracting the disease.
No person afflicted with leprosy is ever
permitted to enter the houses Of the
brothers, and they never eat from any
Of the dishes used by the lepers. With
out themselves being physicians, the
brothers have gradually become well &C
quainted with the symptoms Of the dis
ease.
About year ago Brother Serapion
discovered to his horror what seemed to
him to be unmistakable evidences of his
having contracted the disease. To a
casual observer there was no indication
of his condition, but careful examina-
ton Of his body disclosed what he felt
in his heart was leprosy.
Had he desired he could have left the
settlement and gone forth into the
world to hide his disease, but with a
nobility Of character he determined to
make known his condition if, indeed, his
fears were realized, and to continue to
devote his life to the care Of the lepers.
He came to Honolulu and was examined
by a physician. The case was diagnosed
as that of leprosy. =, 81. ~

ing which they will give concerts in the
larger cities. They are due in New
York May IA, and will leave, on the re-
turn, June 81. This chorus has had an
international reputation for nearly a
half century. Time and again it has
attended worlds fairs, and has made
many tours in Norway and abroad, and
at Paris and other capitals Of Europe
has won unstinted applause. This will
be its first visit to America, and there
is no question but it's triumphs in the
old world will be repeated in the new.
The chorus will be accompanied by
Rolf Hammer, tenor, and Johannes
Berg Hansen, basso, as soloists. o. A.

baton. He is recognized as one Of the
most capable musical conductors in the
north, and has trained the chorus to a
degree of excellence which will be a
revelation to Americans, who think they
know what good chorus work should be.

Of "Foran Syden 8 Kloster," which

Washington, Jan. G,-Rasing his ae-
tion on recent evidence before the
Interstate Commission, concerning
rebates on the Aichison. Topeka 4
Stnta F. Railroad while Mr.. Morton
was its traffic manager, Representa-.
tive Baker, Of Brooklynn borough
to-day introduced two resolutions
looking to the investigation and
prosecution cf the Secretary OF the
May.
They were referred To the House
Committee on judiciary, where they
are likely to remain SOME time in
ito of Mr., Bakers expressed inten-
tion to keep tho subj ct alive until
some action il taken.
One resolution rccites the judicial
opinion Of Judge Gaynor totheeif
that railroad rebates constitute the
greatest crime Of our day aud gene
ration and also quotes from the
Presidents message saying that ut
is necessary To put u stop to all re-.
bates"
1t then suggests that the House
asks the President whether, in view
OF these facts, it is conductive to the
public interest to retain Secretary
Morton in the Cabinet
The other resolution tells of the
evidence before the Interstate Com
merce Commission relating to rebates
to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Comp
any, and requests the Attorney Gen.
eral to inform the House whether or
not the act/of Mr.. Morton AS vice
president OF the Atchison road is a
violation OF the law, and what steps
have been thken towards criminal
prosecution
I Secretary Morton intends to ap-
pear before the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Chicago and tell what
he knows of the charge Of the Gale
donia Coal Company, OF New Mexico,
that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe railroad, while Nc. Morton was
its second vice president, gave re-
bates to the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company.
The other officials of the railroad
at that time will also testify before
the commission, and in this manner
they expect to show that the whole
transaction was thoroughly d,f'ns-
ible and that the suit brought by the
Caledonia Company grew out OF the
refusal OF the railroad to pay an in
creased price for fuel.
The talk about the capital is that
President Roosevelt, in view of these
developments, will ask Mr.. Morton
to resign, il that official does not do
so OF his own accord.
