 Tt became apparent in June that the furligation of only those houses In which cases of fever had been found or to which they had been traced would not be sufficient to check the epidemic. It was. therefore determined to fumi- gate the entire city of Panama within the shortest possible space of time
 Two Whole Cities Fumigated.
 Since twelve days must elapse after the stegomyia has bitten a fever pa- tient before it can transmit the dis ease, 1t was desired to complete the work within that period. but this prov ed impossible. The actual time con stunned was forty-four days, or from July ' to August IS. The entire city of Colon was then fumigated in like manner.
 "The people of Panama. themselves immune from yellow fever, have sub mitted patiently and uncomplainingly to the annoyance and inconvenience of The few complaints which have been made have related rather to the time of fumigation than to the fact of the fumlgation itself Few claims have been filed for compensation for damages resulting from the fumI- gating work. and almost every one Of them has had some basis of merit.~,
 The great object of the work. how. every. has been accomplished. Yellow fever has been banished from Panama. and 1t is believed that the dread scourge will never again secure a foot hold there.

had ever been attempted before in the history of sanitation or medicine.
 When American authorities took charge of the Canal Zone, they found 1t in condition of filth almost beyond belief--yellow-fever breeding mosqui- toes had favorable conditions for propagation. It was necessary to give Panama a good cleaning up and to adopt modern sanitary measures
 As a precautionary measure in pre- venting the introduction of the disease from outside, effective quarantine regu- lations were put in force against South American ports Quarantine stations were established at Panama, Ancon, Cristohal and Colon, and all vessels r-, irving at those ports from southern countries were subjected to the sever-. est Inspection. a IT contagious disease was found aboard, vigorous steps were taken to prevent it's further spread. If mecca sary, the vessels were fumigated and disinfected, ana persons who showed suspicious symptoms were detained un- der observation until the disease devel-i oped or the period of incubation had been completed.
 But the great work of the crusade resolved itself into exterminating tho mosquito carrying the infection and in removing the conditions favorable to it's propagation. It was also essential to put the isthmus on thoroughly san itary basis.

seasons theatrical productinos. A few years ago only few children were in the profession. but 1t now takes hun dreds to supply the demand. Where these children come from, how they happen to be chosen for such woriS. their education, recreation, and their lives in general are matters of more than passable interest to theatre goers.
 This information is to be enjoyed to the full by the inquisitiye person who drops Into the childrens theat- rical exchange. conducted by Mrs, Anna Taliafcrro, who has entire charge of the stage children of New York. and to whom managers apply for dimuni- tive actors and Actresses when a com pany is being made up. On the books of Mrs. Taliaferro there are at least thousand names. representing all colors and a variety of nations, al- though the native American is in q large majority Groups of children are always to be found here. and they form an interesting study in human nature.
 There are agreat many more girls than boys and more dark than fair children. This Is not because more dark children apply. but because. ac- cording to statistics gathered during twelve years of experience. as a rule
 
 to have certain quality which cannot Sbe defined. unless it be called stabiii- ty, which is not possessed by fair skinned youngsters. Girls are often preferred by managers to boys for playing boys parts, because girls Of the same age are endowed with a more ready understanding and are more dra- maticalIy inclined.
 The children. being babies from three rsE to the notice of Mrs Taliaferro through friends or acquaintances. and some. times children whose mothers think they would do well before the public come into the exchange and see what chance there is for them. As at all theatrical exchanges, many apply who are so utterly impossible that nothing can be done for them, and their names are not even taken.
 Mrs. Taliaferro's method of separat- ing the wheat from the chaff is worthy of note., The first step is to make friends with the child. The next Is to tell or read a story--rather an exciting story--and to watch the effect on the childs mind. Some times the little ones are encouraged to tell of some street or home incident. and they are also given chance to show what they can do in the way of singing and dane ing. But that they should be accom- plished in any of these arts Is quite unnecessary if they are of the right intelligence and temperament, and en- dowed with dramatic instinct. All are subjected to pretty thorough exami- nation as to temper as well as capabil- ities, for 1t would not do to let case of sulks interfere with the raising of the curtain should 6 child happen to be in an important scene.
