In his own way, typified courage which
was impressive.
The one inspired his enemies on the
field to deeds of yaior, while the other
kept the faith which lighted the fires of
hope in the hearts of tortured people.
The scene within the cathedral was
unique in the annals of the western

GORGAS ASSERTS

Panama, Oct 5.-Sanitary meas
ures which have terminated the out
break of yellow fever at Guayaquil
have practically eradicated the yellow
fever scourge from the earth. accord
ing to Major G eneraI William c..
Gorgas. former surgeon general of
the United States army, who returned
today after directing the fight against
yellow fever in west coast localities.
General Gorgas said that GuayaquiI

the nature Of the disease is such that
the few cases which may occur in
small, remote communities will burn
out for lack of persons who are not
immune to the disease.
