How Wells May be Polluted.
Hnr1e1,s WeekLu

By series of experiments which proved how
readily deep wells and springs could experience
pollution, the town of Quitman, Ca, has
doubtless been saved from the danger of an
epidemic of disease. In this place the water
supply of the town is derived from wells, and
in planning a sewerage system it was proposed
to dispose of the pubic sewage by discharging
through a borehole into an underground
stream. The possibility that contamination
might result, however, was early suggested,
and led to practical experiments being under
taken by the United States geological survey,
and the geological survey of Georgia. in order
to determine the matter definitely. Two tons
of salt were placed in the well where it was
planned to empty the sewage, and the water
from the various wells which had been pre-
viously examined, especially as to their chlor-
inc contents, was again analysed samples be-
ing taken at intervals during and some time
after the experiment. 1t was found that the
salt had permeated all of the wells in the town,
demonstrating conclusively that disease germs
could be readily communicated to the drink
ing water. These experiments are in line with
some carried on in Europe several years ago,
where it was found that bacteria placed in GER
tain wells, could be detected at other sources
OF water in the vicinity, and emphasized the
importance of carefully examining and safe
guarding water supplies under all conditions.

Fixes the Value of a Boy.
baltimore Am erican

A New Jersey judge has decided that the life
of boy is worth twice as much as the life of
q girl The case is one of rather unusual in.
terest and the judge did not fail to give in full
his reasons for this rather remarkable opinion.
The cases grew out of trolley car accident in
Newark, in which number of high school
pupils of both sexes were killed. Suits for
damages were brought by their parents, and
in the cases referred to the jury gave verdict
of $4,000 for the boys life and 81, 600 for the
girls The judge consented to allow the YER
dict for the boy to stand, but told counsel for
the girl that they must consent TO reduction
of 81, 900 in the girl verdict, or he would order
q new trial. To this counsel agreed.

How to Check the Mosquito Pest.-The
United States Marine Hospital Service has
issued the following instructions for the de-
struction of mosquitoes and it would be well
for everybody to carefully consider them:
Mosquitoes breed only in deposits of clean
water.
Mosquitoes live in the vicinity where they
breed. Invasions from distance are rare.
The larvae of the mosquito live in the water
from to IL days. Notwithstanding that they
are natives of the water, the mosquito larvae
must rise to the surface to breathe the free air.
If the surface of the water is covered with
petroleum the larvae cannot breath and they
die.
Destroy the water deposits where the mos
quitoes breed and their breeding will be
avoided.
Empty all tubs, buckets, tins, Aower.pots,
vases, etc., at least every two days.
All pools, bitches or wells should be filled
with dirt or drained.
Water intended for beasts, chickens and all
other animals should be renewed daily.
All water that cannot be drained should be
covered with petroleum-30 grains to each
square meter of surface. The oil does not in
jure the water intended for use if it is drawn
from below by means of a. pump or other
medium.
All cisterns, wells or tanks of water in daily
use should be covered with wire screens.
Deposits that do not admit of the use of Pc
troleum, such as watering places for animals,
will require the precaution of renewing the
water daily and cleaning the deposits.
Vegetation around pools or wells of water
should be destroyed, as it furnishes shelter for
the adult mosquito.
Absolute cleanliness should be observed in
vacant blocks and lots, and all trash should be
burned.

Death of Successful Railroad Man.
A dispatch from Chicago dated May 10th says
Jacob N Barr, assistant to the president of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Railroad,
is dead at his home in Libertyville, ILL.,, OF
heart disease. He was 50 years old. Mr.. Barr
was one of the best known railroad mechani-

positions and was appointed superintendent of
motive power for the st. Paul road. On No
vember 1, 1899, he was given the place of me-
chanical superintendent of the Baltimore and
Ohio and for time resided in Baltimore.
Not long after that he accepted the same posi-
ton with the Erie. He returned to the st.
Paul road and became general superintendent,
and in April of last year was named as assis-
tant to the president. Many of the devices
nsed in railroad shops are the products of Mr..
Bars inventive genius"

Recovering from Lockjaw-The Anti
Toxin Treatment.-Mr. Edward Hartley, en-
gineer at the Mt. Washington Water Works,
Is recovering from an attack of lockjaw, in
which he suffered all the tortures of the disease
and which, it was at first thought would un-
doubtedly end in his death. If be does recover
it will be due to the heroric treatment with
anti.toxin given him by DR.. Charles H. Bee
tenn, his attending physician, and DR.. John D.
Blake of Baltimore who was called in CONSUL
tation. While the anti-toxin is usually given
at intervals of six hours, DR.. Blake advised
that it be administered every three hours.
After this had been done, the patient immedi-
ately began to show signs of recovery.
The disease was contracted about ten days
before, when Mr.. Hartley stepped upon nail
The wound apparently healed. but few days
later it became tender and soon the racking
spasms of tetanus appeared. These consisted
of stiffening Of the jaws and commissions
Treatment of lockjaw by anti-toxin is fairly
common now but according to DR.. Blake, has
been attended with no very encouraging re-
suits. He holds that this failure is due to the
fear of physicians to use the antidote to the
extent 1t should be injected. Out of seven
cases which he has treated by the threehour
method DIR. Blake says five have recovered.
The tetanus anti-toxin is an amber colored
fluid obtained from the blood of horses which
have been inoculated with the germ. Ten
cubic centimeters, or about teaspoonful. are
injected beneath the skin at one time.
