hole. The French canal builders and
their workmen and the laborers on
the Panama railway died like flies,
usually of malaria or yellow fever.
Today a fatal case of malaria Is a
rarity, the more malignant form being
almost unknown, and not a single case
of yellow fever has originated in the
zone in several years.
The Stegomyia mosquito, the yellow
fever bearer, has not been exceed-
ingly hard to exterminate because it
breeds and lives only near human
habitations. When the Americans
had substituted a regular water sys-
tem and underground sewers for the
rain water barrels and the open
ditches in Colon, Panama and the
other towns, and had fumigated all
the dwellings, Stegomyia was prac-
tically extinct. That job of fumigat-

At a reception the other evening I

fng, by the way, raised a great row
among the ignorant inhabitants of
Panama. They could not understand
why they should be alt moved out
into the street and their houses filled
with evil-smelling fumes, and they
were inclined to offer forcible re-
sistance until the zone police took
the matter in hand.
Much more difficult has been the
task of eradicating malaria, for the
Anopheline mosquito, which makes a
specialty of carrying this disease, is
widespread and of several varieties.
It is the female only that bites, and
she needs blood—preferably red
blood—for the development of her
eggs. The eggs are deposited in a
siow moving or stationary water and
hatch out into little larvae or "wrig-
glers.” At least once in two minutes
the larva must come to the surface
to breathe, and that is where the san-
itary department gets it, usually.
As one wanders about the zone he
sees at the headwaters of every,
stream, ditch or other water course,
■t frequent intervals along Its banks,
•nd at the edge of every pool, a big
tin can or • keg. From this recep-
tacle there is a constant drip, drip,
drip of larvacide. a black, olly-looklng
compound of crude carbolic acid,
caustic soda and resin. This spreads
out over the Water, an iridescent
film, and when little Anopheline
larva comes up for air he meets a
swift death. To replenish these cans
of larvacide a small army of Jamai-
cans is kept traveling about the zone,
and others go around with tanks of
the compound strapped on their
backs, spraying every pool they come
to.
Another measure of extermination
has been the draining and filling in of
swampy ground and the straightening
•nd clearing of water courses so that
their flow will be too swift for Mad-
ame Anopheline. The work of drain-
ing and filling has been extensive and
near the Pacific end of the canal has
resulted in the reclamation of large
tracts of land fnr building sites.

setts and Indiana were built at
Cramps' shipyard and were launched
in 1893. Their main armament con-
sists of four 13-incb guns and eight 8-
inch guns and their speed was about
16 knots an hour. Each vessel cost
$3,063,333.
Modern battleships have a speed of
knots, a displacement of
tons, and their armament consists of
ten 14-inch guns, each 50 feet long:
twenty 5-inch guns and other smaller
weapons. The new vessels can place
a shot accurately far beyond the guns
of the batteries of the Indiana and
Massachusetts.
"The best use the government could
make of the Massachusetts and the In-
diana is to take them out to Chesa-
peake bay and use them as targets for
our modern long-distance guns.” de-
clares Capt. Grant of the Philadelphia
navy yard, where the two old vessels
are quartered. “They are slow in
speed, and way behind the standards
of modern war vessels in every re-
spect. The Missouri and Alabama
will soon be as obsolete as the Massa-
chusetts and Indiana and will very
soon be consigned to the target serv-
ice or the junk heap.”
