"A spirit came to me from tho other

Lord Holt looked fit tho man a mo

Any flue lulUmuiiible dust when

similar accident lu n New York candy

which wrecked the eutlre building wai
discovered to be duo to the fact that
particles of fine Icing sugar had been
allowed to luvndo the room where the

A good many years ago It was dls

which is simply nitric acid nnd com
mon glycerin mixed together nnd nl
lowed to fall into n stream of wnter.
Dynamite Is nothing more thnn nitre
glycerin absorbed by some spongy sub
stance. Alum usbestus plnster of par-
Is sawdust bran meal even dried nnd
pounded polntoes havo been employed
for this purpose but the substnnrc
most commonly employed Is what Is
known ns "kiesol gubr" or spongy
earth. This Is the kind of clay formed
of minute fossil shells grout beds of
which nre found In Germany and oth
cr parts of tho world.
Guticotton. which wns first made in
1810 is the form of nltro compound
usually employed In war. It Is miiuu
fnetured from ordlnnry cotton waste
treated with a mixture of nitric nnd
sulphuric acids
There Is one very curious point about
guticotton. It cannot bo made from
raw cotton tn the bale; wnsto cottou Is
necessary for Its manufacture. It seems
ns if the bleaching to which mrtuufac
tured cotton has been subjected hns
something to do with fitting tho waste
for becoming exploslvo material. Oily
waste is however completely useless
for making guncotton and If even a
little Is carelessly used n whole batch
of tho manufactured product may be
spoiled.
Guncotton Is so extraordinarily sudi
den In Its action that n small quantity
has been exploded In coutuet with a
heap of gunpowder nnd has fulled to
set flro to It
Tho great advantage which gttncot
ton possesses over nil other explosives
Is that dump does not injure It. In
fact wet guncotton explodes with Just
as great violence ns dry but Is of
courso much harder to tire. Conse
quently It Is one of tho safest explo
sives to carry as It can be thoroughly
wetted before pnckltig nnd kept wet
during transport For mining purposes
or for use In war guiicottou Is usually
compressed Into hard cakes.
The cordite which Is now used In
British military rillcs is a ruthcr more
compound substance being composed
of thirty-seven purts of guncotton
mljtcd with flfty-olgbt of nitroglycerin
nnd live parts of mineral Jolly. It Is
formed Into little cords ench three-
eighths of an inch In diameter. These
nre made up Into little fagots which
