CAPTURE OF LEPERS.

The steamer Pele arrived yesterday from Kauai, with twelve lepers on board. About two weeks ago the Attorney-General sent special officer Kingsley to Kauai, with instructions to visit the district of Waimea and attempt the capture of a number of lepers known to be there. Arriving at Waimea, Kingsley in company with Deputy Sheriff Stolz, started for the abode of the lepers and after very little trouble captured twelve who were brought down as above stated.

There are a few more lepers in the district and Kingsley leaves again on the Mikahala to-morrow for the purpose of capturing them.
