Reported Case of Leprosy.
Wellington, July 25. Referring to the reported case of leprosy at Waikareraona, Dr Pomare, Native Health Officer, thinks it may only be a false alarm. He says: “We know absolutely nothing about it. So far the only lepers to our knowledge are three who are isolated as far as possible; one of them is at Wanganui, and the others are further north ; they have been removed from their family circles, and persons have been appointed to look after them. It is understood, however, that isolation is not complete, but that it is intended by the Government to have these subjects quarantined close enough to meet all criticism."
Hokitika Harbour. Hokitika, Jnly 23. Mr Leslie Reynolds, C.E., has been engaged by the Hokitika Harbour Board to prepare a scheme for the improvement of Hokitika Harbour.
