VISITS THE LEPERS
Dr. Koch, German Scientist, at
Molokai Settlement.
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.

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.

LATEST. HIS WORST
Sargent's Portraits Caricature
English Patrons.
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.
Concerning Kallroncl Commissioner.

railroad employes to vote asnlnst me for
