San Francisco, Oct. 1S-Few thing,
have so stirred doctors of the Pacific
Coast in recent years as the announce
ment lately made by the University OF
California that a cure for leprosy has
been found.
DR.. ]. T. Wayson, a graduate of the
| class of 1891, is the discoverer. He mas
submitted data to the university author
tiles of sufficient soundness to lead them
to issue a special bulletin describing the
treatment
DR.. Wayson, as a member OF the Ter
ritorial Board of Health of Hawaii, has
conducted his experiments and researches
at the famed leper colony OF Molexai.
OF his results there the university bull
letin says:
'In the last year the Improvement in
four cases has been so marked that the
board felt justified in paroling them"
Pressing Method Used.
Dr. wayson's methods, as used IN more
than 200 cases, include freezing the af-
fected skin with a carbon dioxide snow
pencil, and the use of oxide of potash.
chaumoogra oil, anti-leprol. elixir OF pat
ash, elixir of phosphate of iron, quine,
and strychnia.
meteorological tests have confirmed
the cure of the four cases, Dr. wayson
asserts, adding:
THE slow method OF using the snow
pencil in incipient cases undoubtedly
causes the death Of the lepra bacilli, and
with their absorption into the Tissues
produces a self-immunizing or vaccine
effect.
'T fully believe that with our present
medical and surgical knowledge relative
to Ieprosy, the majority of lepers, IL
taken in the incipent stage. can be cured
as tuberculosis sufferers are cured In in
cipiency."

The movement already has taken on
such force that the State University is
considering the establishment Of a course
to educate young men to be the proper
kind Of wsrdens.
Rev. DR.. C. N. Lathrop Of the Church
Of the Advent, Episcopal, revealed the
steps that were being taken in this d.
rection in an address at the last lunch
con Of the Commonwealth Club. He
said:
You haven't anybody in this State
who has had a satisfactory training in
prison administration. The guards are
not chosen with view to their fitness.
We've got to have men educated to
handle prison problems. Now with the
help of the university authorities, we're
going to have a course started In the
hope OF training young men for such
work.
"And we are going to bring it to the
attention Of students and show them
that there Is a career for the man who
can manage such great institution"

To Run From Fifth East and
Twelfth South, Instead of
First West and Tenth
South.
TWO REASONS PROMPT
COMPANY IN MATTER
Will Touch More Towns by
New Plan, and Right of
Way Will Be Practical
ly Donated.

.HE Salt Lake & Utah Railroad
company, which is building an
electric road from Salt Lake
City to Payson, has determined
to seek new location for its line
from the city limits OF Salt Lake
southerIy to the Salt Lake-Utah county
line near the Jordan narrows. Two
causes contribute to this determination
In the first place, by changing the route
from the west to the east side of the
Jordan river the line will touch great
er number of towns, and, in the second
place, the landowners along the pro-
posed new route have assured the COM
pany that the matter Of obtaining
right Of way will be far less expensive
than if the old line had been adhered
to.
AS evidence Of its determination to
seek right way down the east side
Of the valley, the company yesterday
filed with the board OF county com.
missioners a petition for q franchise
over certain county highways. from the
intersection Of Fifth East and Twelfth
South streets southerly to the Utah
county limo, in place of the fanchise
heretofore granted to tho company,
from the intersection of First West and
Tenth South streets southerly TO the
Utah county line.
