the whole equipment, or entire train
will be run from Kansas City to Carls
bad, beginning November 1.
It is reported in local railroad cir
cles that a big change in the time Of
trains viii go into effect within the
next two weeks. If the report from
Newton is true, there will no doubt
be a good change in running time,
for the afternoon train could reach
Roswell earlier, a1d would not have
to leave SO early in the morning for
the north. These changes would be
welcome to most ali concerned in
Roswell. Still another report is that
the passenger crews are soon to make

disease Germs Die Quickly Whom
Placed Upon a Copper Coin.
Curious, indeed, Is the effect of met
ais upon microbes. An article in Fuer
ALE Welt sums up the experiments 60
Ing on In several laboratories. AS
| cording to Uffelman, who smeared the
surfaces Of copper coins with liouified
jelly cultures Of cholera bacilll, the lat
ter were destroyed In seventeen min,
utes; while on brass coin they were
alive for thirty hours, vut dead after
sixty Francks inoculated a tube of
melted jelly with particular microbes,
and pouring the contents out ON Il
; 'terilized glass plate. laid bits Of the
ntal under examination on the jelly
| while 1t was still soft
This latter investigator found that II
the metal has an inhibitory action on
the microbes, then a clear zone is left
, around the metal after the colonies
have developed in the other parts Of
the Jelly. The width of this zone va
ried very considerably with different
organisms, as well as with different
metals. Thus carefully purified bits Of
silver produced in the case of cholera
bacilli clear zone millimeters broad,
In the case Of typhoid bacilli a zone of
about one millimeter, while with the
closely allied colon bacilli a zone Of
about five millimeters was produced.
In the case Of purified gold no inhibi
lions was observed with these several
bacilli. Freshly glowed' gold had in
variably no inhibition. Pure nickel,
platinum wire and platinum Mack, alu-
minum, silicon and niobium again, also
failed to give any reactions with mos.
Of the microbes examined
Throughout the investigation it waA
found that those metals that are resist
ent toward chemical reagents in gen.
eral failed to produce any effect on mi
crobes; while on the other hand, those
metals which are readily attacked by
chemical reagents all exhibit a marked
inhibitory action upon the growth of
bacteria. The length of time 1t was
necessary to leave the metals in con-
tact with the jelly to produce an effect
on the microbes present, was tied with
brass, copper, cadmium and zinc on
colon bacilli. The clear space extend
ed over three millimeters.
Similar results were obtained with
zinc. With brass 1t required time to
produce a noticeable effect. And the
anne was true with copper.
