What Indian chiIdren Are Taught.

Coupled with'the policy of industrial
training of Indian children. saws the
Superintendent Of Indian Schools, is a
desire to preserve the native hand
icraEt Of the Indian. While In the
shop it is planned to give each boy
general grasp Of the essential prin-
clples and practical workings of the
mechanical trades, yet the arts Of
their ancestors are taught when it is
fonno that the children take any
delight IN those things. Effort is
made to maintain the high artistic
standards which have made Indian
work famous and given it its greatest
value, This involves the preserving
OF the symbolic tribal designs, and the
using only OF those dyes and materials
which have been throughIy tested by
time and use.
Where tribes are represented who
are represented who are adopts in pare
tlcular arts, more prominence IS given
In the schools to instruction in those
native industries. Thus in school
having number Of Navahoe or Moqui
children, competent training in blanket
weaving is provided. Specific instuc-
tion is given in stringing the warp
upon the handmade loom, carding and
spinning Of wool, and dyeing th'
threads to suit the pattern

BRO0KLINE IS HOME
OF GIRL LEPER VICTIM
SIXTH CASE IN YEAR is REPORT
ED NEAR BOSTON
Lucy Peterson, Domestic in Wealthy
Home, Now in Secluded Hos
pitaI Building Near
That City

Special to The Herald
: BOSTON, Aug. 1O.-Suffering from the
dread disease leprosy, Miss Lucy Peter
son, a pretty Russian domestic, 80 years
of age, who until Saturday was employed
in the household of a wealthy Brookline
family, is in an isolated builuIng on the
city hospital grounds, where she was
taken from the Massachusetts general
hospital this morning, after it was dis
covered that she was victim of the in
durable oriental plague.
Brookline residents fear tAat many per-
sons who called at the residence while the
woman was there may be .aken In hand
by the board of health of that town by or
der of the hospital authorities and the
officials of hte local health board.
This morning the state board of health
was notified, and after an investigation 1t
is said that the woman will be removed
to the institution for such patients at
Penilese island, off the coast of New Bed
ford. where in all probability she will be
confined for life, away from all those near
and dear to her.
For months Miss Peterson had been an
out patient at the Massachusetts general
hospital, it is claimed, and during all that
time the physicians were treating her toi
a skin disease.
Day after day she visited the hospita
seeking relief from the disease. Tho
woman's health was giving out, yet this
was not noticed by the physicians.
Yesterday the doctors became suspicion:
for the first time. The physicians II
charge of the clinic on diseases of the
skin examined the woman closely anc
pronounced her disease as leprosy.
Promptly the hospital officials PLACED
her in a room apart from the othei
patients DIR. Samuel j. Durgin, chair
man of the local board of health, was i'm
mediately notified, and he dispatched Drs
Shea and Brough to the hospital. Boil
confirmed the diagnois.
Miss Peterson was accordingly re
moved to an isolated building at the City
hospital to await the action of the STATE
board of health today.
The discovery of this case of leprosy
has added to the tension of the medical
men caused by the discovery of five other
such cases on the outskirts of Boston
within the past twelve months, two Chi
nese. two Portuguese and one woman
Mrs. Isabelle Barros. These patients are
at the Penilese island institution, estab
lished by the state few years ago as q
leper colony.
Dr. Samuel ]. Durgin, in an interview
did not deny that the woman was suf-
fering from leprosy. She had been an
out-patient at the Massachusetts hospi-
tai for about a year, he said, and the
doctors were treating her for skin dis
ease.

SUBMARINE SIGNALS
FOR NAVAL BOATS
All Liehtships Now Have Bells Under
Water-MercantiIe Marine Has
Already Adopted the
System

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Acting Secret
tary Newberry and Rear Admiral Cowles,
chief of the bureau of equipment, have
arranged to install submarine signal re-
ceiving apparatus on the battleships
Connecticut, Virginia, Ohio, Alabama and
Maine; also on the destroyers Hopkins,
Whipple, Worden Hull and Stewart, and
on the colliers Lawrence, Abarenda,
Ajax, Brhtus, Caesar. Hannibal Leoni-
das. Lebanon, Marcellus, Nero and Ster-
ling. The Mayf1ower and Dolphin were
equipped recently and the Alabama and
Maine have a temporary equipment Tor
purposes of experiment. The war depart
ment has equipped the transports Kilpat-
rick and Sumner.
The action of the navy department fol-
lowing close upon the equipment of all
lightships with submarine bells. places
the United States government IN the lead
in adopting the underwater fog signals.
In one sense the lighthouse board Is the
parent of the invention.
After Prof. Henry proved the impossi-
bility of obtaining accurate fog signals
through the air the board furnished the
facilities for experiments in underwater
signaling carried on during number of
years by Prof Lucien I. Blake and A.
investigators afterward came into the
field and the system now adopted is the
result of all those efforts.
Favored by British
The British admiralty, after exhaust
i've tests last November, reported that
by means of submarine signals vessels
can navigate in fog with almost as
great certainty as in clear weather, ana
that the range of the signals approx
mates that of a lightship in half clear
weather. while direction can be op-
| tained within half point.
| The British admiralty has equipped
| the kings yacht, the Victoria ana Al
bert; the German government mas
equipped the Hohenzollern, Emperoi

sells of each nation have been equlppeu
with the apparatus; but the Ohiteu
States navy is the first to adopt the sys-
tenn generally -
The mercantile marine, however, mas
been using such signals for the past
year. and the important transatlahlio
passenger lines are equipped.
The signaling apparatus consists Oh
