Worlds Lepers.

The American secretary for the Mis-
sion Of Lepers estimates that there
are not fewer than 100000 lepers in
the world, 5000 of whom have been
converted to Christianity. Apropos Of
this, the Hawaiian legislature has just
offered to pension Bro. Joseph Dutton,
who succeeded Father Damien at the
leper settlement on Molokai. Brother
Dutton has not been off the leper
island for 33 years and has spent $780,
600 of his own money to relieve the
poor creatures among whom he lives.
But he refused the pension, wishing
no reward and expecting to work on
to the end in the cause to which he
long ago devoted his life. The world
has heroes of whom 1t rarely hears !;
and it cannot be otherwise than that
such self-sacriflce must win a higher
reward than governments or the plaud-
its Of peoples can confer. .-....' :.
