OF LEPROSY
IN TRINIDAD

An Inmate .of the leper asylum at
Cocorite has been declared cured and
has been discharged from that insti-
tutionA The patient was a West m

and Of good physique and average
strength before going to the asylum
two years ago. he was suffering
from the anaesthele form of lepro-
sy, and about eight months ago be-
gan the so-caned Nastin treatment
At the time of entering the institu-
ton all external and other symptoms
were 50 evident that attending ply
s.cians. who had been familiar with
such cases for years. entertained no
possible doubt of its being a pro-
nounced case Of leprosy. he was CIV
en- an injection once a week for about
40 weeks, when he was discharged
as cured.
The case has attracted general in
terest among the medical profession
and the health officers of the colony.
Before the patient was discharged
every known test, meteorological and
other, was used to determine if the
cure was such as to warrant con-
gratulations over the discovery of a
remedy for this dreaded disease, and
after a thorough scientific and critical
examination no leper baccili were
found. The case will be watched with
great care for some time by the at
tending physicians, to whom the per-
son is to report for examination at
stated periods.
About 20 other cases are now being
treated at the asylum, some of them
showing improved conditions soon
after beginning the treatment, while
others indicate no marked effects. AL
though this asylum has been establish
ed here many years, this is the first
cure reported and great interest is
being manifested by the over 300 pa
tents in the possible relief from the
sufferings Of the leper.

(John a. Lapp in Indianapolis News.)
One of the means which was adopt
ed early in many states to purify the
BALLOT was the registration of voters.
It's primary purpose was to prevent that
most fiagrant aouse-"repeating.
Long before the secret ballot came
into use the subject of registration
was prominent. In Indiana. all
through the seventies the agitation
was strong. eliminating in the passage
OF amendment to the constitution
in 1879 and 1881, which was submitted
to the people in 1881 and adopted re-
quiring the legislature to pass a regis
tration law. The provision reads that
an elector may not vote unless he IS
registered according to law" But no
valid law was passed. hence 10 be regis
tered at all. For thirty years the legis-
latrre failed TO carry out the express
command OF the constitution, until this
gear, when a comprehensive, and to all
appearances before trial. an excellent
law was enacted.

ton day. the same voter had to sign
his name again, opposite his registra-
ton day sgature. The comparison was
easy. Deception was practically impos-
sible. If the voter could not write he
was asked a list of questions relating
to his family history. The list was
preserved. and on election day the same
questions were asked. 1t would take
more ingenuity than ordinary men pos
scss to manufacture biographies and
teach them to the crowd of repeaters.
Conservative men in New York city
estimated that more than 10000 illegal
votes were prevented in that city at
the election of 1908. The law had all
the earmarks of an unqualified success.

cities over 5000. The rural districts
In New York have had registration by
proxy or in person and the cities a per-
sonal registration only. Hereafter all
additions to the original list must be
made by personal application. The In
diana law requires personal appearance
of every elector not because of fears
that the exception might invalidate the
laws.
New Jersey adopted the New York
law almost completely. 1t applies to
cities of 5000 or more population.
Registration in that state had previ-
ously not been effective in preventing
gross frauds. and the new drastic sys-
tenn was badly needed.
! Another form of registration. quite
distinct in method. was adopted this
year in Yves Virginia. In that state
it is done in the same manner as the
assessment of property. The registra-
ton board must visit the usual place
of abode of every voter, and register
him. If they think he is not entitled
to register they put g questions to
him under oath.

CAPITAL FANS HEAR
CORRECT REPORTS
Crowd of 1000 in Buz of
Excitement.

More than 1000 fans got all the thrills
that go with a grand stand seat yester-
dy listening to The Washington Herald s
megaphone man describe the first game
of the worlds series. Every time the
sphere circulated at the Polo Grounds,
every turn in the tide of the battle
reached the ears of the crowd in front
of The Washington Herald building in
ters snappy sentences a few seconds
after each play.
Illustrating the narrative of the big
game were bulletin boards bearing ac-
curate box scores, and when the nine
innings were over. the history of the
struggle stood complete before the
throng. The faithful telegraphic report
came over the wire without a single
mistake.
The game started at 2:O9 o'clock, but
an hour before that the fans began to
congregate in front of The Washington
Herald bulletins. 1t lasted just two
hours and ten minutes, and the crowd
increased steadily up to the announce
ment of the last out. There was a con-
stant buZ of excitement between plays,
and you could have heard a pin drop
along New York avenue when the meg
aphone man was describing plays.
The crowd was about evenly divided
in its sympathies, and good baseball by
Giants and Athletics alike brought ap-
plause.
