Louisiana's Lepers.
New Orleans, April 3. Tito
people of Louisiana nre exceedingly
careful never to mention to strangers
the fact that n considerable colony
of lppors exists In the state. The

causes a shudder and the subject is
one rarely discussed. Most Louis
ianians do not care to. say where the
colony exists. Ik was finally ascer
tained thnt the "Tcrrenus Lepreux"
is along tho swampy banks of the
Bayou La Fourche, near the gulf,
and that the aflheted exiles are
