Alamagordo. N. NJ Jan. 2s.-One Of |

the car. When an attempt was made
to eject them from the car they pulled
knives and a hot fight took place. in
which the crew was victorious. As

After a telegram was received in

bonded car was entered by the robbers
just outside of III Paso, who threw
the bars out of the car to be gathered

Scientific Study Of Urban Sewage.

Boston, Nov. Tn two modest wood
en- buildings, the one suggesting me
small Office that often stands at the
head of coal or lumber wharf and the
other evidently designed originally to
be stable, there has beeen recently
established in the South End OF bos-
ton new laboratory for the study OF
what is admittedly one OF the most
difficult and serious problems or any
great modern municipality. This prob
lem is the publication of sewage, and
the laboratory is one that has been es-
tablished by the Massachusetts Insti-
tute Of Technology under the provis-
ions of gift of $4,000. The smaller
building has been made into a chemical
and psychological laboratory devoted
to studying bacteria and chemistry OF
city sewage, while in the larger build
ing practical experiments are going on
which look toward a final solution Oh
the question of its publication.
Naturally the geographical situation
OF this remarkable laboratory, which,
so far as is known, occupies the most
advantageous position in the world for
the study of problem OF such univer.
sal Importance, is no mere matter OF,
chance or accident. The laboratory is
at the junction of two main arteries Of
the city's sewage, the one running from
the down town district-Boston proper
as it would be known to a resident OF
half century ago-and the other car
rying the accumulated sewage or thel
Back Bay district and the nc!SabOring
tow1@ o. Allston, Brighton. BrookInt
and Newton. The ne f" i Technology iaDO-'
ratory is therefore able at any time 10
sample the sewage OF the larger part OF
the Boston system, and it's rows OF cy-
press tanks exhibit in actual operation
all the processes that science has yet
found practicable in the treatment OF

through layer of sand TO depth of
from TWO and a hall to four feet, 81
gallons Of sewage thus passing daily
through the tank at the new laboratory
AMI representing, in scale, 100000 gal
Ions passing through a surface OF one
acre. This sewage, which passes into
the tank directly from tee TWO great
arteries Ct the 80. III .--.sS9 system,
comes out at re end of "a hours as
clear, colorless liquid that might even
be drunk with IMMUNITY. A glass jar
OF sewage, after its experience IN the
sand filter, closely resembles in ap-
pearance one of the glass jars of NIP
erai water that you purchase at the
apothecary's. And this apparently MI
raculous result has been accomplished
not by the process of straining, but by
the bacteria that were originally in the
sand of the filter and which have beel
prodigiously multiplied in number I'M
der the favorable conditions provided
for them-particularly the presence of
plenty OF air and the regular supply OF
The chemical action of these
bacteria, which exist practically every
where, but especially on the surface
OF sand Or stone, is to transform the
decaying matter into nitrates and nj
trites, thus supplying plant life with a
necessary food as well as renewing the
upply of nitrogen that vegetation is
also constantly taking from the air ana

near the top of the filter there may be
as many as 100000 microbes. The
under which these microbes
flourish are the direct opposite of those
that support the disease germs, and II
is fact that the baneful little organ.

isms cannot survive the passage
through the filter in which the good
bacteria live multiply and purify.
The sand filter, however, is not every.
where practicable as it is in Massa-
chusetts, where sand is plenty and the
vast quantities of it necessary to puri-
fly the sewage of a large city readily
obtainable. Other processes, there
fore, may be seen in tanks OF the In
stitute laboratory, looking toward sub
shutting crushed rock of various sizes

system into the septic tank and from

crushed rock, the process being quick

case of the sand filter, except that they
are not so closely disturbed.
have yet been studied, present a cur
ious contrast to the disease germs that
have been so much more completely
investigated. The great difference, as
shown by the two that have recently
been isolated from their fellows in the
sand filter of the Institute laboratory
not individually, of course, but in the
"polOuiaS' that becOma yicihIa uhan
the bacteriologiSt succeeds in inducing
an invisible but suspected microbe to-
develop until there are so many of him
that the groups may be seen spotted
over the sruface of the glass plate onI
which he has been placed to multiply
lies in the question of nourishment.
The ordinary jelly-like solutions of rich
food matter in which the disease BAG
terra multiply so rapidly apparently
offer no sustenance whatever to the
nitrifying bacteria. The latter must be
cultivated in an acid jelly.-a fact that
further justifies the theory of their &C.
ton upon sewage.
Just at present the establishment of
this new Institute laboratory. which isl
under the direction of Professor w. r
Sedgwick whose biological research
work has already done so much tol
counterfeit the danger of contamination
of municipal water supplies through
presence of sewage, is considered par
ticularly significant. Sewage purifica-
ton offers problems that increase I'M
magnitude as our cities grow in popnla-
ton. and immense sums OF money have
already been spent on such plans asi

drainage canal is sending its sewagel
