Camps Out in Large Numbers
Gas Pipe?Has Many Lei
Possessed of a ]
Pittsburg.?The sand beds in tltel
Aspinwall filtration plant here are
clogged so by microbes, which look
like sections of gaspipe equipped with
legs, that the water cannot get
through the sand, and there is danger
of a water famine on a microbe
basis. One of the peculiar features
of this newly discovered germ that is
puzzling bacteriologists not only here
but in other cities, is that it seemingly
has no head. Neither has it a tail
to wag. It is equipped, however,
with many flexible legs and seeins to
know what It is doing all the time.
Opinion is expressed here that the
germs originated in the mining regions
near Lllairsville, thirty miles
from the filtration beds, and immediately
proceeded to swim down stream
to Inspect the Pittsburg water system.
They liked the filtration beds so well
that the decided to camp out there,
until now there is a layer of multilegged
gaspipe germs on the sand
beds that is so thick that little water j
can get through the sand and into the |
mains.
The situation has become so had
th" city officials are much worried.
Their worrimeiit is increased by the)
laci mat no one seems to know
whether it is ;? malignant or a harmless
gertn. The fact remains, however.
that the city water is so full of
llexihlc legs that ii tickles the throats
of those who drink it. Another disquieting
feature is that boiling the
water does not kill the germ. It
wiggles its flexible legs a little faster
and gets red in the body, bat does not
die as a result of the boiling process.

eminent scientists who are at work i
trying to classify the germ, it is s
known here as the Aspinwall what- ^
ts.it ?
It was by accident ihe presence of (
the new germ in the Pittsburg water
was discovered. Analysis had re- '
vealed so many different sorts of .
germs that it was thought the supply I
was exhausted. Therefore, when the 1
germ resembling a cross between :i ' <
section of gas pipe and a centipede 1
was revealed, it could not pass tin- ,
noticed, particularly win n it was discovered
it was eating other germs, 1
although it seemingly had no mouth. 1
Dr. C. S. Drake, superintendent of
the nitration beds, and W. I*. C. 11a- !
ton. the city chemist, worked ener- ;
geticallv to ascertain the identity of ,
the new germs. Tliev are wholly nn- ,
communicative. Samples of the
germs were taken to Iv K. Lampher,
acting superintendent of the Water
Bureau. He put theni in bottles and 1
sent them to Professor Mason, of the 1
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in t
Troy. X. Y. Other scientists of ua- 1
tional or international reputation
alsf) received samples.
The reports received were far front
satisfactory. Tlte bacteriologists say
they never had seen anything like it,
and thut it is an entirely new germ. '
tint! that they have no idea what its 1
disease-producing specialty is. Sam- t
pies of the germ may hp sent to s

hope the mystery will be fathomed. f
