MANY DEATHS DUE
TO TRESPASSINC

"In the last 25 years approximately
2l4,000 people have been killed on the
railroads of the United States, and of
this number 113,4s0, or over So per
cent, were trespassers, said X. j.
Clancy, assistant to the general man
ager of the Southern Pacific, speaking
before the Civic Auditorium Safety
Conference in San Francisco Septem-
Der 2Sth.
"Trespassing,' he continued, ere
suits in more people being killed so far
far as railway operation is concerned
than from all other causes, yet legisla-
tive bodies, state and national, have
confined their efforts entirely to safety
appliance legislation and have eontin-
ued to disregard the appeals for tres
pass legislation made to them by the
cemeteries and hospitals of this coun-
try every day of every year. A careful
revlew of statistics makes the conclu-
sion irresistible that care in trespass
legislation effectively administered,
viii do more to lessen rail casualti ,s
than all the safety devices genius has
afforded.
''The United States is the only civil
ized countrv in the world that has fail
ed to legisiate against trespassing. the
consequences of which is best ilIuatrat-
ed in comparison with similar results
in other civilized countries where legis
lation against trespass obtains and
where the casualties incident to tres
pass are very few in comparison with
the United States
Mr.. Clancy called attention to the
results of observation tests on automo-
biles, teams and pedestrians at rail
way crossings and the Importance of
safety practices in this connection.
fIn 1914 he said, Eat "a different
crossings taken promiscuously to OBJ
tain average conditions, out of I6,4S2
automobiles, 1875 teams and 54,s35
pedestrians, or total of S9,072, with
the number of tracks at such crossings
varying from one to fifteen, and the
number of trains over such crossings
varying from one to one hundred, 1879.

superintendent w. Fl. Whelan of the
Los Angeles division of the company,
called attention to the Southern Pa

The results of the company's ac-
tivities in this direction are reflected
IN its accident record,'' he said
For the month of June, 1915, for
instance, the number of employees in

perborate powoer Prevents Infection

Perborate Powcer Prevents Infection.
The very latest treatment for
wounds, cuts or broken blisters, in
which there is contamination or sus-
pected contamination from the soil,
is to powder them with sodium per-
borate. This salt, when mixed with
blood or pus, hberates large quantities
of free oxygen and keeps this up for
about twenty-four hours, according to
DR.. A. G. r. Foulerton, who contrib
utes to the London Lancet an exhaus-
tive study of the effects of the per-
borate.
The bacilli that cause tetanus and
those that produce gaseous gangrene
are killed and prevented from sporting
by the oxygen. Doctor Foulerton says
that washing out thoroughly with per-
oxide of hydrogen is the method to
use when this treatment can be ap
piled quickly. but it is not always
possible to do this, while soldiers can
carry in their first-aid package a small
parcel of the perborate and can
sprinkle it on their wounds them.

Naturally coIored Photos.

How can l make Photographic prints
in the true colors of the original sub
ject?
This question has been asked by
every inventor in the Photographic
field for many. many years. And it
remained unanswered until recently,
when Frederic Eugene Ives. the Amer
lean inventor of the half-tone process
of printing and the three-color half
tone process, took out patents on this
new Photographic method.
The taking of photographs in colors.
as invented by Mr.. Ives, is said TO be
so simple that any intelligent amateur
can master it. Mr.. Ives has also in
vented many devices in the field Of
applied optics.

BANKRUPTCY FOR
ANOTHER RAILROAD

The inclusion of the Missouri. Kan.
sas and Texas railroad, which recently
went into a receivership, makes the
mileage of railways in the United
States in the hands of receivers greater
than ever before, according to an arti-
Gle to be published in the Railway Age
Gazette today.
The statement says:
"'The addition of the 1865 miles of
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas sys-
tom makes a total of 80 railways op-
Grating 4l,9SS miles of line and with
total capitalization of $2,264, 100000

is more than one-sixth of the railway

other country in the world, excepting
European and Asiatie Russia combined.

outstanding of roads being operated by
receivers represents about Is per cent
Of the total capitalization of the rail

This is a record of insolvency un-
