One Hundred Pulpits Filled at
 Kentucky Metropolis.

Louisville, June 23.-A great temper. ance mass meeting at the sessions of the Superintendents and Teachers congress Sunday afternoon, fifteen missionary mass meetings throughout the city and sermons in 100 Louisville pulpits by eminent visiting ministers were the features of the work of the International Sunday School associa- tion, which is holding it's twelfth tri ennial session at Louisville. The hot test weather of the season did not seem to abate the enthusiasm of the workers or the interest of the general public in the programme, which was carried through without curtailment
 The main event was the temperance rally at the armory. The national lead CTS in the present fight for prohibition were on hand to enlist the further in- terest and participation of the Sunday school workers in the campaign now in progress. ~'"
 Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens address, entitled The Two Cars of the Tenn parence Movement" was accorded an enthusiastic hearing by an audience that filled the main floor of the ar. mory.
 The Rev. P. A. Barker, superintend- ent of the Anu-Saloon league, told of the progress of the new crusade against the saloons.
 Q Dr. Alexander Allison of New York, general secretary of the National Tenn perance society, was heard with keen interest as he spoke of the Dual Prob lem" that confronts the temperance worker.
 The principal address of tho mis. sionary campaign was delivered at Trinity Methodist Episcopal church by the Rev J. P. Love of Atlanta, who detailed the problems of Sunday School and Home Mission Work In the South"

SIX LEPERS CURED.
p.markable and Encouraging Medical Report to Be Presented.

 New Orleans, June 23.-A remark ,ble medical report touching on the curing of leprosy will be presented to ,he Louisiana assembly probably this week by the leper home of the state of Louisiana.
 In this report appears the words: Discharged cured-one." Practically well and kept for obser. yation--five.'
 Briefly explained, the meaning of these figures is that out of sixty-one Iepers at the Louisiana institution in the past two years, six six have been medically cured. The figures are from the biennial report of the leper home, where for over thirteen years this state has provided a place for |epers to receive comforts and skilled medical care which are not as a rule K within the reach of such sufferers. The fact of the sifnificance of this report is it is not submitted to the assembly as indicating that any speci- fife cure for leprosy has been discover | ed It is simply statement of the results which have been obtained from givng lepers the same sanitary sur |roundings the average person enjoys | and equal opportunity to receive first class medical treatment.
