Isle of Pines a Health Resort.

This Senator, whose views are en-
tertained by a number of his col
leagues, says 1t will be a fatal mistake
for this government to reiinquish its
title to the Isle Of Pines. He speaks
OF the place rs a superb health resort.
and asserts that it is an island of su.
rreme hygienic importance in connec-
ton with the construction of the Pan
ANA canal, pointing out that yellow
fever has never been known to exis. .
on the Isle of Pines; that it is swept
by TIE trade winds Of the Caribbean
Sea, Just as the San Juan Valley OF
Nicaragua Is swept by these trade
winds and just as Hawaii is swept by

coast of Panama and mentioned as pos
sible health resorts are not swept by
trade winds, but are in the becalmed
region in proximity to every epidemic
