FELLOW JACK At PACIFIC PORTS.
A Passenger from PANAMA Thinks Our People
are in Danger.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July IA passenger
who arrived by the last Panama steamer snys
that yellow fever is raging at all Central Amcri.
can ana Mexidan ports on this coast, and deaths
and burials from steamers are far moro numcr.
erous than the ship reports show. He says that
one OF the passengers who embarked at Panama
came straight from the hospital, and was Just
convalescent from yollow fever. Vessels on this
side permit passengers to come on board from
infected ports like Panama, whilo on the Attain
tic side they arc rigidly barred out.
He thinks 1t is scapdalous that certain Gem
trail American and Mexican ports have not been
declared infected by the local health authorities.
In his opinion there is grave danger that infcc-
ton may be carried to cities of tho United
states, both on this coast and on the Atlantic
side. Such a condition of affairs would never
be allowed In any European city.
His diary shows that five days after leaving
Panama a Salvadorean who had been on a vaca.
ton to Europe. died Of yellow fever. and three
hours later another death occurred. On the fol.
lowing day the ships baker died. Still more
passengers were taken on, and the next day tho
third engineer died. The ships surgeon de-
olared that the disease was pernicious malarial
fever. but the patients developed all the signs
OF yellow fever, and death was swift in every
case.

Tho bicycle Policeman stops n Runaway In
the Boulevard.
Bicycle Policeman Kavanagh. who stopped a
runaway in Second avenue a week ago and was
laid up for several days from the injuries he re-
ceived, returned to duty the first Of the week.
Yesterday afternoon he stopped another rum
away at the risk OF his life, but this time was not
hurt much.
About 5 o'clock a spirited horse attached to a
light side-bar buggy and driven by David Curley
of 3lS East Thirty-ifth street became unman-
agcable at the Boulevard and Eightieth street
and started Off with the bit in his teeth. 1t was
raining heavily at the time and there were few
people on the street. Curley tried to keep the
animal on the right side Of the avenue. but was
unable to control It, and at Seventy.elghth street
the runaway dashed across to tho opposite side,
narrowly escaping several vehicles which were
going up the Boulevard.
Kavanagh was standing on the curb at Sew
enty street when no saw the horse coming
down the road. At Seventy seventh street tho
runaway collided with a four-wheeled cab,
which momentarily checked It's speed.
started again. ran toward it,. He had gone no
more than fifty feet when the horse tore the
buggy free and continued its course. AS the
runaway came up to him Kavanagh turned
ono hand. jerking on the rein with the other. BY
the time the animal reached Seventy-sixth
street the policeman had 10 under control, and q
short distance fur her he brought the runaway
TO q full stop. Kavanagh's clothes got covered
with mud. and his heel was bruised In stopping

eoPHERs DESTROY A CANAL.
An Oklahoma City Enterprise Ruined by the
Pesky Animals.

PERRY, Oklahoma, July 1A-Gophers have
destroyed q St0,0 900 canal at Oklahoma City.
The recent nlling up Of the canal where It passes
through the southern part OF the town is the
end of what once promised to DO the most re-
munerativo enterprise in Oklahoma.
Philosophical capitalists believed that the
waters OF the rapidly flowing North Canadian
River could be used to operate all the mills that
could be placed on its banks at Oklahoma City.
Engineers were employed to make a survey, and
1t was said that q canal Ave miles long could DO
made to carry the water that ran a distance Of
twenty miles by the sinuous course Of the river.
The fall was nearly thirty feet, enough 1t was
believed to develope 1000 horse power.
More than 100000 was expended in construct
ing tho canal. 1t was diked part Of the way and
the river was crossed twice. Tho canal was
twenty-five feet wide and four feet deep. Its
completion was an occasion of Importance in
Oklahoma City. Four inches OF water were let
in the head gate and the electric light plant and
alargc Touring mill were run as II by magic.
An unsupported enemy. mall in size, but pro-
digious In industry, soon overwhelmed the en-
terprise In disaster. The banks Of the canal
were Of porous, sandy soil. Gophers attacked
the dixie. A hole no larger than n mans wrist.
burrowed by these animals, widened into
q crevice in half an hour and tho
water easily swept away the sandy dikes.
Tho repairs were constant and costly. The pro-
moters grew discouraged. The money panic
swept over the country and the canal was q
wreck. Its flood gates arc gone and the ma
sonry Is q pile OF debris. Farmers are now
ploughing up the right Of way and the canal
Is gone,
