WILL SEEK To-
UPROOT LEPROSY

HONOLULU, Sept. AFTER more
than forty years of segregation in an
effort to stamp out leprosy in the Ha-
waiian islands. a very vital modifica-
ton of the segregation policy has
been adopted by the board of health,
with the approval of Governor Frear.
The board has now declared that its
efforts shall be directed to the treat
ment and to the search for cure, as
well as to the segregation of lepers.
Governor Frear in speaking of the
change of policy, said:
For forty-three years we have
been continuing policy of segrega-
ton of the lepers of the territory, but
we are just about now where we were
at the beginning, so far as stamping
out the disease is concerned, and we
will be there forever if the same pol
icy is continued The board by its
new departure not only agrees to al
low the federal physicians to use as
much as possible some of the terri
torial buildings at the receiving sta
tion at Kalihi, but adopts policy of
its own for the treatment of the sus-
poets here before sending them to
Molokai. The policy is to be treat
ment first and segregation after
ward.
after the legislature meets it is
hoped that the territory will have
money for the treatment of suspects
and incipient cases of leprosy, and
then the territorial physicians can
work alongside the federal investiga-
tors. 1t is important that these in
vestigators be able to study afflicted
persons as early in the disease stages
as possible, to tudy the disease in its
beginning, to try and get at the root
of leprosy to stop it,

KILAUEA VERY
ACUIVE AGAIN

HONOLULU. Sept The vol
cano of Kilauea is now in more active
eruption than at any time since 1894.
Since the first signs of the present
activity began about three years ago,
the motion lava in Halemaumau, 1.-THE
house of fire., has risen about $50
feet and Is still rising. There seems
every indication that it will rise the
remaining $50 feet to bring it to the
top of Halemaumau and let it flow
over the great floor of Kilauea, as it
did fourteen years ago.
Now that the motion lava has risen
SO near the top, it presents most
magnificent spectacle. The molten
lava, rising from depths Of more fnan
a thousand feet, and coming to the
surface in geysers and fountains of
fire; the streams of lava that flows
from these to all parts of the floor of
the pit, slowly filling it up; the roar
and the swish of its torrential move
ment-all unite to make a most i'm
pressive and awe-inspiring scene.
Kilauea is an irregular circular
crater, apparently on the shoulder Of
the great dome of Mauna Loa, 1000
feet above sea level. It is eight miles
in circumference, its longest diameter
being about three miles and its short
est two miles. Its walls. rise sheer a
thousand feet, vertical in great part
OF the. circumference, though slightly
broken down in some places.

BLACKMAIL IS
ATTEMPTED by boy

BORDEAUX, Sept Camille
Marquet, a soldier of the Twenty
eight section OF military nurses, wrote
to President Roosevelt on January 8
last that the society to which he be-
longed had rendered services in the
presidential election which were
worth 10000 francs which sum he
asked to be sent to a certain specified
address. Mr. Roosevelt paid no at
tention to the letter. whereupon Mar
quet on March wrote again, threat
ening Mr.. Roosevelt with scandal
, dishonorable to his family IL the de-
mand for money was not complied
with. In the letter Marquet recon-
mended that discretion be observed,
saying that the heads of those in high
places were not too solid on their
shoulders.
President Roosevelt turned the let
tiers over to the American counsel
here, who handed them to the police.
Marquet was placed under arrest and
was subsequently tried by court mar
tial. Marquet declared that the plot
was solely invented by himself, and
that he did not realize the gravity of
the offense he was committing, Fol-
lowing report by DR.. Major Ber-
thier, the court imposed a sentence of

SERVICE
TO Be RESUMED
Probable That Dayton and
Western Start Service

COMPLETION OF THE NORTH
END DEPOT.

With the promise of the city Off
Gals to the Dayton & Western trac-
ton company, not to prosecute should
that company run freight cars on Main
street pending the completion of the
north end freight route, it is probable
that within the next few days freight
traffic between Indianapolis and Day

In notifying the Dayton and Western
officials that the city council had rati-
fled its franchise. City Clerk Merrill
told President Kelsey Schoepf of the
Ohio Electric company, which controls
the Dayton, and Western that the city
would offer no objections to the oper-
alton of freight ears on Main street
for the time being and urged the re-
sumption of the service.
Clerk Merrill has heard nothing
from Mr.. Schoepf, however He is ex-
pected to order the re-establishment of
freight traffic into Richmond this

the city, that just as soon as the north

station ready for freight business,
freight cars shall cease running on
Main street.

ELECTION COURT
FIRST OF KIND
Governor-eIect LiIIey's EIec-
ton Expenses Are
Probed.
A QUESTION HAS ARISEN
DER WHICH ACTION is BEING
DOUBT.

New Haven, Conn, Dec. 26.-An
election court, to inquire into the cam
paign and election expenses of Con-
gresham and Governor-elect George
l.. Lilley of Waterbury, was opened
here. today upon the application of
George l.. Fox, schoolmaster of this
city, under provisions of a corrupt
practice act passed by the general as
sembly in 1905. 1t is claimed that this
is the first election court to be set up
in this country.
At the November election Mr.. Lilley
was opposed by a faction in his own
party. While Judge Taft carried the
state by over $4,000 plurality, Mr.. Lii
ley had slightly less than 10000. The
present inquiry, should it reach the
stage of taking evidence, is expected
to go back into the canvass for the
nomination in the spring and summer.
The campaign expenses of Mr.. Lii
ley were returned in the certificate to
the secretary of state at $23 600, those
of Judge Robertson, the democratic
nominee at $33 900, while the anti-Lil-
ley republicans spent over $4,000 Mr..
Fox's power of subpoena under the
corrupt practices act is believed to be
unlimited
At the outset Col. Lucien F. Burpee
of Waterbury and States Attorney
Stiles Judson of Stratford raised the
question of the constitutionality of the
corrupt practices act on the ground
that it contraxenes several sections of
the state constitution. especially in the
paragraphs which provide for an in
quiry of the kind now opened.

WILL NOT EFFECT
Alleys Reforms in "Three RS"
Not Intended for This
County.
PLAN REGARDED GOOD.

Shortly after Robert ]. Alley. state
superintendent of public instruction
elect takes his office in January, his
probable rulings in reference to more
thorough instruction of pupils in the
Three RS" are expected to be issued.
Mr.. Alley is staunch advocate of a
more complete course in the founda-
tions of all education, reading, writing
and arithmetic, and he is expected to
urge all pedagogues to devote more
time to these branches of study, they
having been, generally and sadly neg
lected in the past few years.
1t has been the rule in Wayne coun-
ty to avoid any stunning of these fun
damentals and any ruling of Mr.. Alley
will not affect this county as it will

and Wayne county teachers. Local
educators, however, are not prone to
say that all pupils graduating from the
common schools are good spoilers

are complete masters of arithmetic 1t
is probable that even more attention

GOVERNMENT IN
PANAMA ZONE
Real Purpose of the Hepburn
Committee Is Made
Known.
LEFT SATURDAY.
ONE SCHEME SUGGESTED FOR
EVIL CONDITIONS PREVAILING
is TO BRING REGION WITHIN
U. s. JURISDICTION.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 20. - The
real purpose of the so-called Hepburn
party trip to Panama. which started
from New York today, is to substi-
tute a genuine government of the
canal zone for the anomalous condi-
tions which exist there now. Con-
gress started year or two ago to
inquire into the conditions in Panama.
For practical purposes the authority
conferred on the president by the
Spooner act has been sufficient when
the issue was only business ques-
ton, but now that criminal trials have
been begun and sentences of fine or
Imprisonment are being imposed upon
offenders against the law, the situa-
ton is far from satisfactory.
The idea that visit to the canal
strip should be made by party of
federal legislators, apparently is that
alone of,William P. Hepburn, of Iowa,
chairman of the house. With the COM
mittee as nucleus, such party has
been assembled as Mr. Hepburn has
seen fit to select. 1t is only semi
official
Pay Their Own Expenses.
Each person pays his own way. ex
cept that transportation is furnished
over the water and rail lines OF the
Panama Steamship Company and for
the last few days. as the attractiveness
of fifteen days sojourn in a warm
climate has grown upon the states
men, the party has been augmen ted
by senators and representatives with
little time to spare.
Governmental power in the canal
Zoac is now divided between the civil
administration, which regulates per-
sonal and business affairs within the
zone. and the military administration
which has direct charge of the con-
struction of the canal. When the
canal is finished and the t. sitory
must be guarded against foreign en-
croachment, the United States must
have real power over life and prop
erty and it is the apparently self-im-
posed duty Of the Hepburn commit
tee to devise workable scheme Of
government which shall last for all
time
One plan proposed to relieve one
phase of the 'intolerable' situation is
to bring the canal zone within the
jurisdiction of the United States
courts. probably of the southern dis
trict, thus giving the right of appea !
to the higher courts of this country.
Mr.. Hepburn disclaims special au-
thority for the trip, stating that it has
been arranged by the war department,
but officials of the department in turn
refer all inquiries to Mr.. Hepburn.
