fed and rots away, leaving at
last nothing but trunk of a
human being. His reports point
out that the treatment produced
much good results, but that the
lack of proper food made absolute
cure impossible.
DR.. Plumacher says in his re-
port that as he was successful and
full of hope for continued good
results, he concluded that he
would rather drop the society of
his friends of the foreign colony
than to abandon the lepers.
Though he observed minute care
to avoid any danger from con-
tagion, he suffered a most hor-
rifying experience in attending a
boy patient at the leprosy insti-
tuition, and a few days after the
incident small sores appeared on
his hands, but after some months
these dried up, although discol-
ored marks remained.

LEPROSY is DURABLE.

Washington, Sept. 49, After
displaying rare heroism by the
devotion of lifetime to a study
of leprosy, Eugene E. Plumacher,
American Consul at Maracabio,
Venezuela, has decided that the
dread malady is not contagious,
but is hereditary to a degree not
reached in any other disease. He
has made an exhaustive report to
the State Department., telling of
his personal attendance upon
lepers afflicted in the most revolt
ing form. His report indicates
that leprosy is durable, but there
is. little hope in Venezuela or
other Latin-American leper col
onies, where nutritious foods are
expensive and drugs rarely ever
provided.
DR.. Plumacher was appointed
to Maracabio in 1878, where, in
conjunction with his duties as
Consul, he constantly observed
leper cases and their treatment
and where he experimental in no
small way. In this he has had
the benefit of correspondence with
the most advanced scientists of
the United States and Europe
and it was through his efforts
that the tua-tua" plant used
in treating the disease, is now
planted in all countries which
have leper stations. At the re-
quest of these scientists DR.. Plu-
macher took many photographs
of lepers, personally removing the
bandages of the afflicted, that the
best results might be attained.
He was allowed to visit secretly
many lepers in Maracabio, con-
cealed by their families to avoid
being sent in perpetual Danish
ment to the island.
Using a secret which he OBJ
tanned through DR.. S. S. Boutwell,,
now Marshal of the Supreme
Court of Porto Rico, he expert
mented with it On these private
cases. Ten lepers were given into
his special charge. These cases
mbracd both classes of the
disease, the dry class, where ex-
tremities become calienized, so
that fingers and toes may be
broken off without pain tic the
patients, and the other class,
known as wet, or soft, leprosy,
where every part becomes putri-
