SAYS GERMAN TRIED
TO SPREAD LEPROSY
CAUGHT IN ACT OF SELLING
COURT-PLASTER CONTAIN
ING GERMS

A newspaper at Newmarket, Iowa,
publishes an account of an alleged
effort to spread legrosy in that To-
cality, by means of the sale, by a
German, of court-plaster, inoculated
with leprosy germs. The paper. in
sounding a warning against the
purchase of court-plaster or other
articles from itinerant peddlers
says:
The latest and most diabolical
plot to destroy human lives was
shown up last week when a travel
ing fakir peddling an innocent look
ing court-plaster was arrested over
at Henderson.
when searched at the police sta
ton yer $1,000 in currency was
found on his person and this made
the officers more suspicious than at
first, and it vas decided to fully in
vestigate and a sample of his court
and when analysed was found to
contain large quantities of leprosy
germs. the most malignant and in
durable disease in the world. The
aforesaid peddler was a German and
hardly able to speak the English
language and appeared Indifferent
as to the consequences when found
out. Just what will be done with
him is not ven made public, but
hanging or even burning at the
stake is too good for a dirty skunk
hat would spread that greatest of
all pestilence throughout the land.
This should be another warning
to all people to beware of peddlers,
for you never can tell what You are
liable to be up against"
