"Down slopes and ter racing reaches Where orange and mango and pine apple grow, , One wanders through Edea to ooean washed beaches — An Eden that only the sun-chtMren know." Thus James S. Gilbert, the late la mented poet of Panama, wrote of Taboga Island. It was so enticing that I determined to be one of the sun-children for a day or two and so steamed away in a little launch twelve miles out into the Pacific to that I beauty spot. It is all that Mr. Gil ! Bert called it, and more, and it is no | wonder that the sanitarium, estab j lished there by the French canal com pany and redpeped by the Americans, is so well patronized. If you are a canal . employe—white —and have been 111, the doctor may bo kind enough .to send you over to Taboga fo]r two weeks to reouperite. If you are a mere visitor you can put up at | the unpretentious little hotel con ducted by WUHam Jones, the Ameri- I can six-footer who looks like a miner and dances like a cotillon leader. In either case you will be fortunate, for you will find those "verdure-clad slopes" gorgeous with flowers and alive with brilliant birds, apd the "ocean-f ashed beaches," the finest places in the world for a swim You can sail about the pretty bays with the native fishermen, Or you can climb up the hills where the boys are vociferously driving the klne home to be milked, or you can merely lie In the shade and dream dreams of the Spanish galleons and the buccaneers. A more delightful place for rest and the repair of shattered nerves would be hard to find. Taboga has a history, too, small as It Is. Dfe Luque, the second bishop of Panama, looked upon the island, saw that it Was good and established there his country residence. In fact he maintained a household there the year round, for, like many another churchman of the old days, he did not adhere closely to thr rule of celibacy. His memory is preserved by a bath ing place in a stream that runs down I the mountain • side, called the Bish op's Pool. It was reserved for the use of him and his retinue. Above it is the Family Pool, .for women and .children, and stjll higher up Is the Pool of the Letters, for the men. The 'last one derives its name from th«. Inscription "J. F. 8., Ohio" carved on a near-by rock. This is a reminder that in 1862 the Fourth infantry. U. S. A., crossed the isthmus en route for garr|son tfuty is California, hav ing sailed from N#w, Y#rjf on the United States mail steamer Ohio. Cholera was prevalent at the time In Panama and the American soldiers and the sailors from the Ohio were attacked by the disease, about eighty of them dying. Some of the sick were left on Taboga island to recov er, and evidently one of them did re cover sufficiency to climb up to the bathing pool and leave the record that Is a mystery to the native In habitants of this day. Incidentally V. S. Grant, then a captain, was -with the Fourth infantry oh that trip. If you elimb up the bill, following this stream' most of the way, you win come to a place at the summit of a pass called Las Cruces. There, set In cement, are three small croaaes commemorating the most exciting In cident In the island's history. Ac cording to a Spanish work written early in the last century, a shipload of Peruvian pirates came sailing up the coast In 1816 and decided Taboga was a good place to loot. They land ed and drove the small Spanish gar rison out of the village and up the mountain. But in the pass the sol diers rallied, the inhabitants came to their assistance and there, says the chronicler, a most bloody combat raged for hours. Finally the pirates were routed aud fled to their ship, leaving three men dead on the field of battle! The isthmus reeks with history, some of the most Interesting pas sages of which have to do with Porto Bello. But the visitor who goes there with mind full of the mighty fights and great trade of the old Spanish days will be woefully dis appointed by the town as It now Is. Romance, commerce, everything at tractive has fled long ago from that place and Porto Bello Is nothing but a dirty. Immoral little village, full of low cantlnaa, slatternly natives and mangy curs. At each side of the town la the ruin of a Spanish fort, Ita plcturesqueness marred by fisher men's nets and the local wwhlng hung up to dry. Thus the work of man has decayed, bat Nature ia as kind as ever to Porto Bello. Its bottle-shaped har bor is one of the prettiest t6 be found, with promontories guarding the entrance, beautiful hills on • both sides and entrancing little rivers meandering down from the moun tain* and through the jungle Into its upper end. One hill opposite the town boasts the remains of three un usually Interesting Spanish forts One Is at Che water's edge, another sovera. hundred yards up the slope, and these two were once connected by a covered stone stairway the ruins of which still provide the easiest means of ascending. On the Bum mit of the hill is the third fort, a mighty square tower surrounded by a deep moat. The walls are almost Intact but the roof has fallen in and the fortress is full of trees and shrub bery/ . With these three forts, two others protecting the harbor entrance, the two at the ends of the town and an other Just above It, Porto Bello might well seem to have been impregnable, yet It was taken twice by the Eng lish. Sir Francis Drake planned to capture It in 1596, but just as his ships were about to begin the attack Drake died and was buried in the mouth of the harbor. Dispirited by the loss of their leader, the English sailed away, but Capt. William Parker took up the project In 1602. With two ships be got past the first forts at night and after a desperate fight captured and sacked the city, carry ing off 10,000 ducts' worth of plunder. The second taking of Porto Bello was the first notable exploit of Henry Morgan, the famous buccaneer, as an independent commander of a fleet. Sailing into what Is now Colon har bor, he took his men up a river in canoes, landed at a place called Es tera Longa Lemos and marching through the Jungle, attacked the city from the rear. First capturing the castle above the town, he shut the garrison In one room and blew thejn and the fort to pieces with gunpow ,der. The governor, the citizens and the rest of the Soldiers, surprised and terror-atricketa, were soon driven into one of the other forts and| for hours they bravely withstood the assaults of the buccaneers until, as Esquomel ing tells us, Captain Morgan began to despair of the whole success of the enterprise. Final lyhe had a number of ladders made and forced the priests and nuns whom he had cap tured to set them up against the walls. Many of these poor creatures were killed by the defenders, but at last the ladders were placed and the buccaneers swarmed up them carrying fireballs and pots of powder which they kindled and hurled among the Spaniards. The garrison surrendered , at discretion, but the gallant governor defended himself so obstinately that 1 the English were forced to kill him. Morgan remained in Porto Bello sev eral weeks, plundering the place and torturing the citizens to Induce them to reveal the hiding places of their riches. Though an important place In the transshipment of gold from the west coast of South America, Porto Bello never was a large town, but for sev eral weeks each year It was very populous. This was at the time of the annual fair, when the galleons from Spain were In the harbor wait ing for the mule trains to bring the gold from Panama Then merchants and adventurers from all that part of the world gathered in the village and trade was brisk in the big building now called the custom house, whose ruined walls still are standing. Mer chandising, drinking and fighting divid ed the time until the galleons set sail for Spain with their golden cargoes.
