Gold Coast Conditions.. Is in doubtfal if the Gold Coast conditions cf service will obtain much longer, for Sir Hugh Clif ford, the present Governor, has. exposed the legend of the lethal reputation of the Colony and has told an audience at the Colonia!- Institute that the climate is more unhealthy than the climate. of the Malay Peninsula or Ceylon. Sir Hugh speaks from an experi- ence of twenty years in the Malay Statee, and five years spent as Colonial Scoretary in Ceylon, He compares meteorological statistics and declares that both as regarde beat and the much more trying quality of humidity, the hot, damp"climate of the Gold Coast, as it is known at its worst on the sar-hore and in the moist forest belt, is a considerable improve ment upon what is met with in similar localities in Ceylon, and 20 impartial person who has lived in both places, he sa-s, oan en- tertain a drabt as to which is the preferable of the two climates. ir Hogh Clifford further points out that although certain refer eace books describe, the Gold Conat avery malarious," the percentage of deaths from mala- ria in the Gold Coast is not only relatively but actually much smaller than that shown in Oos- lon and the Malay States.
