SAYS He WILL
COME To HAWAII

A recent number of a French journal
published by the Catholic church con-
tains an item to the effect that Father
Conrady, for many years located at
Molokai, but now in Chicago, viii go
from there to the western cities and
then to Molokai to study conditions.
Father Conrady is a secular priest
of the Catholic church and for years
was a disturbing element at the settle
ment During the term of w. o. Smith,
as president of the Board of Health,
he was expelled from the settlement.
Later he was heard from in China and
was literally advertised as going to
work among the lepers there. Since
leaving Hawaii he has studied medicine
and bases his claim to admission TO the
settlement upon his knowledge of medi-
cine and the disease. AS the Bishop
of the Catholic church in Hawaii has
nothing in common with Conrady, who
is not a member of the society which
does so much for the unfortunates on
Molokai, it is not believed he viii be
permitted TO go to the settlement. AS
he was the cause of SO much trouble
during his residence. ten or twelve
years ago the Board of Health will
probably keep the bars up while the
priest IS in the country.
