GIRL GETS LEPROSY
FROM CHINESE WIG

LONDON, July IA tragedy has
succeeded fancy dress ball which
was held In North London the other
evening. One of the participants has
been stricken with leprosy. but
through fear OF creating panic
neither her name nor the names of
her companions have been given To
the public.
About a week after the ball
strange mark appeared on the fore
head OF the girl. She consulted
physician, who treated her for ecze-
ma. The mark, however, showed no
signs of Improvement, and the phys-
clan called in specialist, who de-
clared that II was u case OF leprosy.
Leprosy Is such rare disease In
London that the laws pertaining To 1t
have to be conformed to by physl-
clans, even though they realize that
these regulations are needlessly cruel
and out of date.
Investigation showed that the girl,
who Is extremely pretty, had attended
a fancy dress ball disguised as u man
darln's wife. To make the disguise
more perfect. she had purchased in
White Chapel shop genuine Chinese
wig, and 1t is believed that through
this wig she contracted the disease.
The girl has been removed to the
leper colony and diligent inquiries are
being made by the health authorities
to discover the antecedents of the
wig. as 1t Is believed that It must
have been worn at one time by
leper Efforts are also being made
to trace all those who came In con-
tact with the girl at the ball or since
then, with view to keeping them
under strict observation and prevent
Ing the disease from spreading
