GOES AFTER INFORMATION Finds Unfortunates Well Taken Care of and Contented as Can Be Ex pected Refuses to Talk About Possible Experiments. HONOLULU, May 31. Professor Dr. .Robert Koch, the eminent German bac teriologist, who, for some time has been staying in Honolulu, on his trip around the world, returned here today from a visit to the famous leper settle ment on the Island of Molokai, whither he went for the purpose of investigating- the method of treating leprosy, which has long been a perplexing prob lem in these islands and in the Orient. Dr. Koch was taken to Molokai as the guest of the German Consul, William Pfotenhauer, on the Chilean steamer Keau Hou. especially chartered for the trip, and was accompanied by Dr. Wal ter Brlcke-rhoff, in charge of the Fefl eral Leprosarium; Dr. L. E. Cofer, president of the United States Marino Hospital Service at Honolulu, and H. Foeke, Chilean Consul here. Dr,. Koch made a most careful ex amination of the settlement, taking; many notes on what he saw and ques tioning many of the unfortunates, but wiw reticent in expressing himself ex cept on the general conduct and condi tion of the camp. As to the scientific treatment of the dread disease and whether a permanent cure might be discovered as a result of experiments now being made by scientists, he de clined to be quoted. Patients Well Provided Kor. "1 visited the settlement," said Dr. Koch, "principally to learn three things, namely: The method of ad ministration, the contentment and sur roundings of the lepers, and whether climatic, racial or other conditions re sulted in special forms of development of the disease. As a result of my vlelt I found the type of disease the same us that existing in leper stations of other countries which I have visited. The buildings, general arrangements and equipment compare favorably with those existing in the great leper settle ments in other parts of the world. I consider the patients well provided for In every respect, especially In treat ment and nourishment. The lepers have every reason to be as well satis fied and contented as could be ex pected." The lepers- had no notice of the com iii5 of the great German scientist, and were rather taken by surprise. They take delight in welcoming dlstin-J guished visitors with a public gather ing and speeches, and felt chagrined jtooqg o sjBddJd jou oiaia. item these attentions to the party. They soon learned Dr. Koch's Identity, how ever, and regarded his visit as the moat important event in the history of their isolated and almost hopeless home. Dr. Kocli took notes on everything he saw and made a thorough inquiry into the individual and hopeless cases. He visited first the buildings being erected for the Federal Leprosarium, and then the Baldwin Home for Boys. He examined many of the patients, questioning them regarding their age and the length of time they had been in the settlement. From the boys" home, Dr. Koch went to the Bishop Home for Girls, which is in charge of the Fran ciscan Sisters, and thence to the Bay view Home, where patients in the most advanced stages are cared. He conferred at length with Dr. W. J. Goodhue, the settlement physician, re garding the treatment and progress of the disease, displaying? much interest in Dr. Goodhue's experience. Dr. Koch questioned Dr. Goodhue at length as to the administration of the settlement, the contentment of tlte lepers, and how they liked the treat ment. He asked why an exact census of the lepers In the islands, as shown by naeal secretions or by other etf cient means, had not been made. It was explained that public sentiment among Hawaiian would not permit of this. Dr. Koch declared such an ex amination which is now made In Ger many, would be valuable as giving pre cise data, from which to judge of the effectiveness of segregation. Dr. Koch visited the grave of Father Damien. who gave up his life in the serv ice of the lepers, and talked with Brother -Dutton, Father Damlen's companion. CUPID USES A REVOLVER Bullet Brings About Reconciliation Between French Couple, PARIS, May 3ft. (Special.) M. Charles Leriche, a "lyric artist," whose name has been more widely illustrated by his sister-in-law, Augustine Leriche, one of the most Joyous comic actresses in Paris, was walking home the other day when he met his wife, also an "artiste lyrique. There would have been no cause for alarm in the meeting but for two reasons. One was that divorce proceedings were pending between them; the second, and more immediately disturbing, reason was that she carried a dainty revolver. M .Leriche murmured something and made off. His wife went after him and fired twice, one bullet hitting him in the shoulder blade. Police and the usual crowd came, and the husband was taken to the hospital. where his wound was found to he in significant, while the wife was led off to the police station. There she said that she had shot, her husband out of Jeal ousy, but was deeply sorry, and prom ised never to carry a revolver again. She was let off on bail and went home. Her husband, In the meantime, had also gone home from the hospital. When hia wife arrived he was not vindictive, but forgiving. Her demonstrative affec tion had touched him deeply, even though the one bullet which took effect had pen etrated only half an inch. "Come to my arms," he cried, and embraced her. He had never dreamt she lox-ed him so much. The next morning he went to the police and withdrew his complaint against her for having shot him. Then he called on his lawyers, and stopped the divorce proceedings- . Now the couple will live happily, at least lor a time. HMD 11 Methodists, Episcopal and Protestant, Take Steps. CHOOSING MORE BISHOPS Dr. Smith, Editor, and Dr. Lewis and Dr. Hewes, College Presi dents, Elected to Episcopacy. Conference Likes Union. Bt I. L. Rader. Editor Pacifio Christian Advocate, BALTIMORE, Md., May 31. (Special Correspondence.) If the members of the General Conference were badly frostbitten by the address of the Rev, Collins Denny, representing the Meth odist Episcopal Church South, they were Burely thoroughly thawed out by the warm, brotherly spirit manifested in the address delivered by the Rev. Dr. J. H. Lewis-, who Is the chairman of the General Conference of the Protest ant Methodist Church, now in session In Pittsburg. Early in the session, this General Conference sent a commission to bear a message of fraternity looking toward union to the quadrennial conference of the Protestont Methodist brethren. This commission, composed of Bishop War ren, the Rev. Dr. J. F. Goucher, and the Hon. John P. Dolliver, was received at Pittsburg with every indication of brotherly consideration and fraternal regard. After the commission had re turned to Baltimore, the conference at Pittsburg appointed the chairman, Rev. Dr. J. H. Lewis, the Rev. Dr. Reynolds and Mr. Brown, Controller of the State of Maryland, as fraternal commission era to this General Conference. This commission appeared on the platform of the conference today. Dr. Lewis, who is president of their denomination al school, located at Westminster, Md., addressed the conference. He recounted the differences which had caused the leaders in the Protestant Methodist movement to leave the Meth odist Church, and set up an establish ment of their own; and then, raptur ously expressed his delight at the mother having come over to the daugh ter and taken her position In admitting laymen to equal privileges and author ity In the Jaw-making body of the church. The commission appointed by the Protestant Methodist Church and one appointed by this conference will enter into negotiations which will probably culminate in 1912 In the com plete union of these two members of the great Methodist family. Rev. Charles Wesley Smith, D. D., who for the past 16 years has been the edi tor of the Pittsburg Christian Advocate, was. elected bishop yesterday. Dr. Smith was born In Pennsylvania and is now in his 69th year. The singular thing about his election is that no other man has ever been elevated to this important of fice at the age which he has attained. This morning the 13th ballot resulted In the election o the Rev. C. S. Lewis, D. D.. president of Morning Side Col lege, Iowa, and the Rev. Mr. Edward Holt Hewes, president of De Pauw Uni versity, of Greencastle, Ind. Dr. Lewis is said to be a man of beautiful spirit, extensive information, and accurate learn ing. He has boon the leader of the col lege over which he has been president from the beginning of its history, and has secured for It a property and endow ment of toOO.OOO. Rev. Edward Holt Hewes is the son of a Methodist preacher born in West Virginia, reared in Iowa and ed ucated in the Boston University. His appearance suggests at once the old ex pression, "Keen as a razor." He is small of stature, light end blithe in his move ments, weighing about 120 pounds. Three years ago. he accepted the invitation of the trustees to become the president of De Pauw University, at Greencastle, Ind. VOLCANO AGAIN TO ERUPT Great Interest in Spectacle on tlie Multnomah Field. Portland's latest novelty the noisy volcano at Multnomah Field was on Its good behavior yesterday and quiet as a lamb, but knowing ones predict that another fiery outburst is but the matter of a few hours. Pain's beauti ful "Carnival of Naples" will start to night at 8:30 o'clock, and an hour later "Vesuvius" will await the electrician's tip to enact again the pyrotecnlc role that has so quickly established It as a popular feature of the Rose Festival attractions. The enormous grandstand at Twentieth and Washington streets will today be enlarged to accommodate the thousands who will flock during the week to see the much-talked-of spectacle. New features are promised for tonight, Including the first appear ance of Jean Weitzman, the daring high-wire walker, whose performance terminates in an outburst of fireworks, completely enveloping the intrepid man while balanced in midair. Another of Pain's $'.500 fireworks displays will follow the eruption of Vesuvius tonight. Numerous new de vices will be given. Including the large rose, gigantic fountain, monkey gym nast, magical Jeweled tree, and Niagara Falls in electric fireworks, the grandest piece known in pyrotechny. Tuesday will be women's night, and a fireworks portrait of the city's most handsome lady will be presented. Children from the orphans' homes have been invited to attend in a body. Concerning Railroad Commissioner, Word has gone down the line to the railroad employes to vote against me for re-election as Railroad Commissioner. For days private detectives have been busy in Portland and all along the line, exhorting and even threatening the men. Why? Because as Commissioner I have performed my duty fearlessly and hon estly, and in the public Interest. This will be my course if re-elected. I appeal for re-election on mv record. CLYDE B. AITCHISOX.

BALFOUR IS HARDEST HIT Painter Pictures Tory Leader as Limp, Baekboneiess Monster The Duke and Duchess of Con- naught Suffer Severely. LONDON, May 31. (Special.) When the Royal Academy opens nowadays the first question everybody asks is: "What has Sargent done this year?" This does not denote a healthy state of British art when an American trained in Florence and Paris completely domi nates the scene. In answer to the question it may be said that this year Mr. Sargent has done his worst at least by the Duke and Duchess of Con naught and Arthur Balfour, whose por trait was painted for the Carlton Club. His portrait of the latter might be styled "Unsettled Understandings." for it leaves the spectator In doubt whether Mr. Balfour's legs are going to continue to perform their office of keeping him in a quasi-perpendicular position. A limp, baekboneiess or al together boneless nerveless, formless figure, leaning for support upon a mar ble column, down which there seems to be every probability that it will slip before long. That Is Mr. Sargent's representation of the Tory leader. Wholly Escapes Painter, There Is. after all, some trace of per sonal distinction not of a virile, rather an aesthetic type, in Mr. Balfour. It has wholly escaped Mr. Sargent, to whom he has only appeared as the slltherer of public life. But their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Connaught! Mr. Sargent la certainly not ambitious to become a Court painter. One can see why King Ed ward has fought shy of the distinction of being dissected by him. The Duchess might admirably sustain the role ac cording to Mr. Sargent's presentment of her of Princess Vinegar in the Fairy tale. It is as fine an example of Sar gent's work as possibly exists but as a family possessioft the Connatights may well be excused for preferring not to look upon It. Then the Duke a hard, keen, frown ing, unsympathetic face, suggesting In a sort of way the countenance of one of the money-changers in Rembrandt's famous group. It was amusing to hear the comments of the fashionable friends of the victims as they saw the picture: "Really he might have done a little better by them than that!" was the common remark. m Sly Quip or a Critic. A well-known critic, in describing Tennyson Cole's portrait of King Ed ward's coronation robes, says it con tains one of the most carefully loyal renderings of his Majesty's legs that lie ever saw. Apropos of J. H. F. Bacon's portrait of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, for the Reform Club, exhibited at the Royal Academy, it is said, by request of the King, there is a possibility of its being withdrawn. Members of the family are, it is reported, moving to that end. Confessedly the portrait is unfinished, and in these circumstances it Is quite unfair to judge it. ' Gentle Spring in Sttw .York. New York Sun. A spring bubbles up through the ce ment floor In the basement of the new home of Hook and ladder 35. In West Sixty-third street. The contractor who put up the building could not control the spring. He did the next best thing and built a basin for it in the basement of the building with an overflow pipe leading to the sewer. Now the members of the truck company have good spring water for drinking purposes, and if they feel like it they can get it in the old country w h y of lying flat on their stomachs and sticking their aces Into the bubbling water.
