WASHINGTON, Dec. lS-The report of
Colonel q. W. Gorgas Of the Panama canal
zone for October shows three cases OF vel.
low fever during the month, which, he says
indicates che early disappearance of the
disease. only ono case was an cmploNc OF
the commission.
Colonel Gorgas states that Panama has
often been free from yellow fever. but the
only disappearance was when they had no
nonimmunes to contract II. During OC-
tober he says, they had all the natural
conditions favorable for yellow fever and
larger number of nonimmuncs probably
than had ever before been on the isthmus.
with a wet and hot month.
The American force reached its maximum,
about 22,0n, of which number about 1900
are nonimmunes, among whom was only
one case OF yellow fever and not single
death. The report says that with %, 900
men there, the sick rate is twenty-one per
thousand
Colonel Gorgas points out that when the
sanitary improvement in progress, including
street paving in Panama and Colon water
works in Panama Colon and along the
line, and comfortable screened buildings
for the employees at all points. are COM
pleted, the health conditions will be stil
further improved, but states that he is in
Clined to think that the sanitary question
of Panama has been settled. as has been
shown, he adds. by the fact that force
of labOrers as large as there ever will he
can work on the sthmus without suffering
from yellow fever, and that the general
health of this same force can be kept as
good as II they were digging a canal in a
healthy part OF the United states proper.

WORK OF ART, SAYS LATENSER
Panorama of Omaha is Pronounced
Magnificent Revelation by
John IAtenser.

Speaking Of the great painting of
Omaha which The Bee will present to it's
readers New Year, John Latenser archi-
tect, said:
Il have watched the panorama while the
artist was at work and ] have seen it
in it's finished state and L consider it a
work of art by which the artist presents
the city in its true atmosphere. BY that l
mean that in looking at the magnificent
panorama YOU see the city as 1t is-truly a
home city on the border of the rolling hills
of beautiful Nebraska.
The panorama is wonderfully exact in
technical execution and The Bee deserves
great credit for backing such an enterprise.
Few cities have been as we'll represented
by a panorama as Omaha. To those who
live in Nebraska and the surrounding
states who have never had an opportunity
of seeing Omaha this picture will be a
revelation"

and compelled her to deliver her watch
and other jewelry. He then walked into
Mansfield, where he held up one of the
village stores, ordering the proprietor to
hand over all cash on hand. The demand
was promptly complied with, though only
a few dollars were secured. Escaping the
crowd that gathered in response TO the
storekeepers alarm, he hurried away in
the direction Of AthOl, The authorities
there were on the lookout for him and
promptly gave battle, Snyder not surren-
dering until shot through the check
