DIFFERENCE OF OPINION

Washington, Differences
of opinion appear to exist between
President Roosevelt and his secre-
tary of the navy on the subject of
naval taxation. The president has
been urging the necessity for a big
navy and has on one or two difer-
ent occasions carried his recommen-
dations to the point where congress
would not follow him. Secretary
Bonaparte is opposed to the presi-
dents naval enlargement plans. The
secretary has decided to turn down
the Recommendation of the general
board. of which Admiral Dewey is the
president. for the construction OF
three battleships. This plan was
adopted b ythe general board at the
express instance of the president and
in accordance with his well known
wishes.

RUSSIANS At SCHOOL IN JAPAN

for the benefit OF the more than sew
enty thousand Russian prisoners now
scattered over Japan. The Japanese

which were placed under teachers Sc

Of the prisoners. under Japanese super
visors. In addition. more advanced
educational work was undertaken. In
structlon being impaired in Russian
and Polish. And here It may be re-
marked that some of the Polish pr!s!
oners have Jokingly remarked that It.
has been necessary for them to come
all the way to japan to learn their own
tongue. which Is under a ban at home.
The plans Of the progressive little
Japs for the Intellectual and moral
improvement OF their prisoners have
succeeded beyond expectations. Even
the amusements afforded the captives
are Of an instructive character. Books
and newspapers are literally provided
and plays are represented in the
camps. in which Japanese actors per-
form historical pieces. generally In
culcating the fundamental virtues. pat.
riotism above all.
The treatment Of the prisoners
taken In battle can hardly be described
as adding insult to injury. though
some Of the Russian authorities might
be inclined to consider 1t that way.
And 1t 10 dimcult to determine just

cano had died down until there was
nothing but little sparks left. She had
never revealed to her husband that
she was the FIRE goddess. though he
instinctively felt that she was some.
thing more than an ordinary mortal.
He was 10th to have her depart and
finally prevailed upon her to remain
as his consort. That Is why tho

There Is a venerable wizard that is
said to be over 30 year OF age, living
In the hills near Honolulu. and who
Is noted for the wonderful power OF
his eye. He Is filthy. ragged and un.
kempt. but the strange light In his
eye holds the natives in awe and at.
tracts many curious white people who
want to see what he Is like.
A Few White Lepers. -r
And now. leaving the legends and
superstitions OF the fair island behind.
we come to what may be called
Hawaii's skeleton in the closet. It Is
the leper settlement IN the noun
tains Of Molokai. It Is located on
a peninsula OF some 5000 acres in ex-
tent. It Is surrounded on three sides
by a steep precipice about 1900 feet
In height. The settlement can only
be approached by a small pathway.
and two policemen are always on
guard here to prevent any one one
from entering.
About 14O lepers were sent here
in 1865, and the number has In
creased from time to time until there
are about 1000 persons in the COM
munity. Nine-tenths Of the afflicted
inmates of the place are either Chin
ese or natives, white people being
rarely susceptible to the disease. Lit
tie is known Of this dread malady.
It is cureless but painless afflic-
tion and the theory is that 1t can
only be taken from contact. The first
symptoms are generally little spots
behind the ears.
One of its strangest features is that
children born OF leprous parents are
seldom afflicted. All children born
at Molokai are carefully watched
until they are z years of age, and
II at that time they are found to be
nonlepers they are taken to Honolulu
and placed In an institution provided
for them. These children are care
fully sheltered and nurtured and al.
most invariably grow UP to be usetul
citizens.
