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. A BLACKMAi 1 I ■ a SCHEME. Alleged Spiritualistic Revelation Used to Extort Money From a Woman. From the St. Louis Republic. Omaha, Neb., Oct. 22.—Two postoffice inspectors from Chicago to-day arrested Mr. and Mrs. Harlow Davis for violation of tho federal law in sending obscene matter through the mails. The complaint was made by I. M. Hay of Waterloo, la. Mr. and Ms. Davis aro spiritualists, and Mrs. Davis, professing to havo been informed through the spirit of an Indian maiden named Bright Star of im- S roper relations between her husband and [rs. Hay, wrote to Hay and his wife de manding money. Tho Davis couple came he-e from San Franc sen, where Mrs. Davis did some sen sat io ,al newspaper work under the name of “Sophie Search.” She was also connected with a [taper in Oakland, Cal., in the same capicity. A BED ALIA ELOPEMENT, Started to a Funeral Put Got Married Instead. From the St. Louis Republic. Sedalia, Mo., Oct. 22.—Miss Ida M Moore, the adopted daughter of one of Sedalia’s leading citizens, and C. W. Mc- Cieverty, a clerk in the Missouri, Kansas and Texas general offices, disappeared from the city yesterday, and it was supposed they had eloped, but nothing definite was known until todav, when a dispatch was received from Warren*burg, saying that they were married there last night. Miss Moore is one of tho finest musicians in the c*ty, and it was the intention of her parent* to have her complete her musical education in Europe. She started to attend a funeral soon after the dinner hour yesterday, but, instead, met her lover and they took the afternoon train fer Warreasburg, where they were marrie-i. THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. OCTOBER 26, 1890-TWELVE PAGES. | 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. Wilf. P. Pond. 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. NrrvDExr.i Uf IHtPfcKSU .if' QUICKLY DISSOLVED AND REMOVED WITH THE NEW SOUIIION * nopsne =?
