DESCRIBES TESTS
WITH LIVING CELLS
California U. Dean Holds 1t Is
Possible for Life to Lie
Dormant Million Years.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, December 30
Dean Charles B. Lipman of the Univer-
sity Of California today described to the
Botanical Society Of America the ma
ture of his experiments that convinced
him it is possible for life to remain
dormant millions Of years.
The report, delivered before the bot
aristS' meeting in connection with the
convention of the American Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science,
carried forward previously announced
conclusions based on. the finding OF
living organisms in the interior OF an
thracite coal from deep mines In wales
and Pennsylvania.
Dean Lipman's paper also described
the laboratory tests which he believes
prove the micro-organism he has been
studying have been in the coal since 1t
was formed and could not have pene-
trated it in recent times or have come
from outside contamination.
Organisms Are within.
Belief of the California scientist that
the organisms have been in the coal
since it was formed from rotting vege-
tation of coal age swamps is founded
chiefly on unsuccessful attempts he
made to force such organisms into the
coal.
In the grinding up of the coal and at
all times in the experimental steps, he
said. the samples were shielded from
contamination. Scrubbing with soap
and water, rinsing in distilled water,
Submerging in superoxol, hydrogen
peroxide, in alcohol and sterilizing in an
oven at temperatures of 315 to 1874 de-
EAaTnY1hnif ka1r
to make sure, DR.. Lipman related, that
the organisms did not come from out
side sources.
Grow In Pairs.
Concerning the type of organisms
which he found after taking these pre-
cautions, DR.. Lipman said: Most of
them were short bacilli or cocco-bacilli
and egg-shaped coccus forms varying
considerable m size and shape, even in
pure cultures. The tendency among all
OF them to occur in pairs was very
marked. The colonies they produced
on agar media at the first streak;ng
were usually small and beadlike. Some
OF them were yellow to yellowish brown
others white, but In thin layers of
growth a distinctly blue color was
always visible"
Dean Lipman said, "I believe It Is
quite possible for cell like a spore to
remain in state of suspended ANNA
ton"
His studies warrant. he said, the be-
lief the micro organisms that he has
made to resume animated life and null
tiply are descendants directly from cells
dormant in the anthracite from the
time of its formation" which biologists
calculate is from 100000 to zoe, 000,-
600 years.

KENTWOOD, La, Sept. l2.-P)
"A sheriff's posse today closed in
on the swamp hiding place or the
two surviving bandits who yester-
day robbed the bank or Kentwood

At the same time, authorities
continued their efforts TO identify
the third member OF the robber trio,
who shortly after the raid either

marks, nothing was found on the
dead bandits person to indicate his
identity.
The three bandits, after the hold
up yesterday, took refuge In q
swamp near Tangipahoa station,
six miles south OF KentwOod, and
as the posse pressed hard. and bull

from a tree with q bullet through

Especial to The Herald.)

N04N&A4A W
HARLINGEN. sept. i2-The first
report ever made revealing the ex-
penditures OF the Arroyo Colorado
Navigation district was made public
Friday morning, showing that total
money spent BY the commission Is
S56.587.60 between December p, 1877
to Aug. ~. 1880.
The report. which was received BY
the Harrington Chamber OF COM
rnerce. was untotaled, and the fig
ure shown above was determined by
q Herald reporter with the aid OF a
banker here
II was disclosed that J. b. Cham
bcrs, ST.. manager Of the navigation
commission received during this
time a salary totaling $1,000, and
an expense account which amounted
to s3,1B3-9 go, including expenses OF
trips to Washington, etc.
A second major expenditure was
listed by Gen. Lansing II. Beach,
who received about $1,000 In all. OF
this amount, $1,000 was for survey
work, 81, 900 for a trip to Washing
ton. and 81. 100 for general engineer
ing expenses.
A. Tamrn. Of Harrington. received
approximately $1,000 for engineering
work.
The report was issued presumably
from the county ~treasurer's office,
IL was said, and showed only the
expenditures Of the commission over
the period named. The amount
received as interest on the $4,000
which the commission received when
the bonds for this amount were

flee supplies and other minor ex-
penses.
