A CONSUL AMONG OUTCASTS.
An American Investigating the Lepers
of Maracaibo Is and.
Fro 111 t\f PAitirfriplOfl liouirer.
Washington, Oct. 19.—Tbe state deDart
ment is in receipt of some interesting and
very important information regarding the
outcast community of the island, near
Marae Gbo, where for years the Venez lelan
government has quarantined and main
tained a colony bf lepers. Toe information
is the first autnentic news from the f j nous
island for many years and comes fu the
shape of a communication from E. H.
Piumacher, the United States consul. He
has sent the department sixty photographs
of lepers of all ages and
representing all stages of the disease.
Mr. Piumacher has be-n making a studv of
the lepers, aud in order to or lug the matter
forcibly to the attention of the home gov
ernment he induced a -Mexican photographer
to go over the isiand with him,and tue pict
ures are the result of that trip. lu tbe case
of one, Abraham Fernandez, who has been
affected nine years, the only visible signs
are tawny spo:s on the forehead and too
many wrinkles for his 30 years. Alfonso
Bernal is of the Same age, hut he has been a
leper twenty-four years. Ho has los; his
eyes. His senses of smell and of taste are
gone. He is stone dea and his fingers and
toes havedropped off. Tuecomplete descrip
tion of his condition is to 1 horrible to telL
SAB AND GROTESQUE.
In his lot;or Consul Piumacher says:
“It was truly a sad sight to see deformed,
mutilated tru iks, with scarcslv vestiges of
extremities, seated before the camera; and
there was something patheuc in the aimo t
universal request to be supplied with pic -
ures of the.usMvos, which could only be
constant reminders of their hopeless afflic
tions. lu addition to the individual photo
graphs, various large gr .ups were taken
with an effect both sad and grotesaue.
There is one bright spot, however, in the
dark picture of misery, this being the devo
tion and self-abnegation diplayed by the
near relatives of many of the sufferers.who,
although enjoying themselves the blessings
of health and strength, caeerfully submit to
per petual imprison meat inorder’to minister
to the wants of their husbands, mothers and
other relatives.”
MARRIAGE OF LEPERS.
The consul tells of a strange discovery
made in this leper community. He writes:
“It was at first a much mooted point as to
whether marriage i should be * permitted
among the patients, and, after lengthy hi
ves'igation and discussion, it was finally
determined that past experience warranted
the belief that such unio is would prove un
fruitful, and consequently various wed
dings havo been celobraied. For
years the theory of sterility was
not contradicted by experience and
seemed about to be definitely set
tled, when two births occurred on the
island, the parents in each case being lepers.
It has always been well understood that a
union between a sound and a diseased per
son would be liable to result iu the propa
gation of diseased offspring, bub, until the
occurrence of the births referred to, it was
believed that two undoubted lepers could
not procreate, and in these two exceptional
cases I would be inclined to ask whether a
mistake may not have bean made in
the diagnosis of one or the other of the
parents, confounding with true leprosy
some other physical taim, which, thougu
similar in appearance, may be different in
kind. Be that as it may, neither one of the
two children has as yet shown symptoms of
the disease, and in March of last year oue of
them, who had reached the age of 14 years,
having pased his whole life on the island
with his lepr u 1 parents, was allowed to
return to society, after having bo-n for
mally pronounced clean by a board of com
petent rperts.
TYtES OF THE AWFUL DISEASE.
The consul has inve ligated the charact >r
of the disease with considerable care, and
has arrived at some interesting conclusions,
especially as regards the question of con
tagion. He says: “The disease assumes
various phases, the most common type be
ing the tuberculous, manifested in distorted
features, enormous pendent ears and Ups
and an abundance of exaggerated wrinkles.
I have seen children of both sexes, of 12 to
14 years of age, with the features and bear
ing of octozenurians, and some of the ead
de->t cas3s are of this class. As the disease
progresses tho extremities are attacked and
slough off, tho body becomes scaly, and, at
times, covered with ulcers, and the facul
ties of sight and hearing are frequently
entirely destroyed.
“ There has lloen much difference of opin
ion ns to whether or not the disease is con
tagious, and, although the great majority
of laymen who have not specially studied
the subject believe, no doubt, that it is a
true contagious disease, yet I am inclined to
believe that Ihe weight of medical opinion,
at least m this country, is opposed to that
tieory.
WHY PHYSICIANS DIFFER.
‘’Sound wives have been living with dis
eased husbands, some of whom have arrived
at the last and most loathsome stages of the
malady. Daughters have ministered to
their affl eted mothers for years, and at the
death of the latter have returned to the
world, where they are tc-dav healthy moth
ers of healthy families; aud the entire his
tory of the lazaretto for more than fifty
years is a refutation of the contagiousness
of the disease. The reason, I fancy, why
physicians here sometimes differ on
this point is that there are two
theories respecting the ’origin of
leprosy, one of which —the parasitical
or microbian theory—if clearly estab
lished, would, no doubt, indicate’ contagi
ous qualities, and its supporter . in order to
be consistent, must go tho whole length.
Referring to the possibility of error iu
the diagnosis of leprosy, Consul Piumacher
says there is at present in the lazaretto a
patient who, after three years’ residence, is
still considered a doubtful case. He was
finally removed from the island aud placed
in one of the city hospitals, where, f>r sev
eral weeks, he was closely observed by a
board of physicians, all treatment being
discontinued. No agreement of opinion
could be arrived at and ho was again trans
ferred to the island, where he still remains.

| HOW TO KILL DUCKS.
A KILLING DECOY THAT ANYONE
CAN MAKE.
When and How to Place Decays—
Ncvel Methods Used in Other Coun
tries—Valuable Hints for the Duck
Hunter.
(Coiyricht 1890.1
New V ork, Oct. 25.—The ducks are com
ing in early this year, and fairly goad sport
has already been had on Long Island. I
was down at Good Ground, Sdmr.eoosk, and
the South bay two we>ks since, and
bad fairly good sport, getting twelve ducks
in one day, eight black, three sprig tail and
one teal.
In duck shooting the call attracts first,
then the decoy stake up the thread, and
upon the way they are arranged depends
the sport of the day. The decoy should
always face the wind. This is imperative,
as the live ducks always take thte position.
Asa rule the decoys are ballasted with lead
and anchored with strings.
It is hard work to got these to lay right
at dead water, but with a running tide it is
an easy mattar, if they are well anchored.
Late last year I saw a set of imported de
coys which took my fancy and which any
one might make. They were called profile
decoys. Eacn bird wa. made of two pieces
of thin wo si. One piece represented a
duck in profile or outline, (the w od being
only half an inch* thick) and was fitted over
another flat piece of wood, showing the
surface of a duck’s back viewed from
above. Thus, whether the birds were
Hying over or sidewise, the two views gave
the shape of a duck. With these decoys
was a large triangular frame, on which
they could be placed in aiy position de
sired, and being floated, were held in posi
tion by lead sinkers attached to the frame.
The stro >g point in favor of these profile de
coys lay in the fact that the ducks, frame,
r pes and sinkers could all be packed up and
carried in an ordinary hand bag.
Most of the duck shooting is done from
“sink boxes.” The best way for the mail
who wants fun, and has not much time to
spare, is to go to some ducking center ad
jaceut to his locality and hire a professional
who has decoys and can "call.” These men
are to be found in all good duoking districts.
The outfit of the Che apeake bay men, col
iectivelv, is said to represent a value of
*IOO,OOO. Tho pay for the men average $5
a day, with outfit, Ihe price ranging from
$3 to #lO, according to locality.
Never go out without a good field glass;
it will save many long tramps and much
rowing. When tbe birds are sighted, keep
sile.it, and as still as possible; if you are in
a constrained position remain so until you
move to shoot, and then move quietiv and
steadily. There is plenty of time, and a lot
of moving can be done in a second. In
firing at ducks, remember to shoot well in
front of them as they fly from sixty to 150
miles an hour.
If they coma across you, about-three feet
in advauce is enough, and if direct to you,
from one foot to three according to the'dis
tance they are off. After a storm ducks
take a lee shore where they can rest and
lay quiet to recruit. When found sitting do
not lire if their breasts aro toward you, for
unless hit iu the head they will escape. It
is the best plan to wait until they strike the
air. You will thea catch thorn under the
wings.
One of the most ourious methods of duck
shooting is to be found In tbe landcs or
marsh districts of Franco, in the neighbor
hood of La Rochelle. Tho local proverb
runs: “Whoconges from La Rochelle smells
of mud,” ad it is so. The boots of the
peasant and the cattle, horses, dogs and
carts are all plentifully bedaubed with it.
The marshes extend on every side for many
mil s, not continuously, but. in a succession
of dry and wet tracts, the wet predomi
nating. Baths about a foot wide run here
and there through the morasses to the
higher grounds where the sheep feed, but
they are winding and tortuous. Conse
quently the inhabitants of the district are a
nation of stilt walkers.
The men who drive the sheep to feed fol
low the winding path with the flock, but
they return on stilts by a short cut. The
postmen use stilts, and so do the huntei-s.
These mirshes are the home of the wild
duck aud widgeon, but they lie far away
from the paths in the most secluded Diaces,
inaccessible to one walking in the ordinary
way. 80 the hunter dons his stilts. These
aro eight feet long, the footholds being
about six feet from the ground. They
are fastened to the ankle and just be
low the knee wtih leather straps. At
the bottom, to keep them from sinking too
far into the mud, is a round disc of wood,
whicti makes tho stilt look as if it had been
pushed two inches or so through a small
wooden plate. On these the sporisman can
stride from place to place and also get an
uninterrupted view of the ducks as they
rise. He is acconiDanied by a long-legged
dog, something like a Norfolk spaniel, who
swims and flounders along to retrieve the
birds when shot, or find them to shoot. At
his back the man c irries a long, light po 0
about six feet long, fitted with a gaff like
that used for saimon, aud when a bird is re
trieved he hooks it up to his hand and de
posits it in a basket at his back.
Cases have been known whore the weight
of the basket has overbalanced a tired man.
ond he has fallen backward to be covered
by the yielding marsh and smothered; his
dog goiag for help, but returning too late.
At night, in the fall, it is a weird sight to
see these hunters come striding through the
dusk, looking like giants from some past
age returned to life. Another curious
feat.ire of duck hunting used to
be fouad on the northwest coast of
France, near Cape Grisnez. Here the
black ducks used to come in thousands,
going out to sea with the ebb, and return
ing on the first flow, diving into the shal
low water as they passed along, feeding on
the fresh Crustacea rolled up by the tide.
When the tide bad gone down the duck
hunters came to the beach and spread their
nets. These consisted of one net covering
an area of about forty feet by forty, and
spread flat on p osts about a foot above the
sand, and pulled nearly tight. Beneath it
was thrown a number of crab shells, fish
and winkles.
In fr.iDt of it on the sea side, at a disr
tance of twenty feet, was stretched a net
beid by poits in a vertical position, the
bottom tightly pegged into the sand, and
the ends forming a somi-circlo enclosing
the flat net. The top of the vertical net
was arranged to be on a level with the flat
net further up the beach. When the ducks
came in tney sailed gaily over the first net,
diving all the time, until they came over the
flat net. As one swooped down, thrusting
his head through the meshes after tbe
tempting bait, he became hopelessly en
tangled and never came up again. The re
ceding water twisted his neck, and the net
held him tightly. This would go on until
the tide rolled deep over the nets. When it
ebbed the same thing occurred, and when
the water had receded down the hay, the
men left their dominoes and coffee at the
village and came down to reap the harvest
of the nets. Those that were washed off tbe
fiat nets were caught by the vertical ones.

A Verdant Brooklyn Servant.
From the New York World.
Brooklyn possesses a genius in the matter
of servant girls. She is young and prottv,
but very green. She works for George ft.
McGowan, who live* in the first flat of No.
490'.' a Sev; nth avenue. Early yesterday
morning the girl used the oil stove belong
ing, to the family. She filled the pan with
kerosene oil, and then, haviDg no other
convenient place to put tbe oil can, de
posited it in the oven of the kitchen range.
The oil stove was not sufficient to do the
work requ red, so the girl, never thinking
of the oil can, built a fire in tbe range. In
a few moment* everybody in tbe house
knew of it, for when the oven became hot,
tbs can of oil burst. It ruined the stove
and kitchen furniture, called out the fire
men and summooed the police. Tbe damage
was small, but the servant girl was badly
scared.
