'booby traps.' When we occupied it
we learned much from the partly com-
pleted traps we found lying about the
place.
"One of them was an iron plate.
This the wily liun dropped in a road-
way so that it would likely be trod
upon by soldier or horse of our ad-
vancing troops. The plate was in
two parts, with a spring Inside, and
usually contained a detonator connect-
ed with a heavy charge of explosive.
When the weight of the foot was re-
moved the spring slipped into place
and exploded the detonator, and the
damage was done.
"These spring detonators were the
Germans' specialty. They consisted of
a tube containing a little spring with
a hook at one end. Attached to tiiu
hook was a string .<r wire connecting
with the explosive charge. Any ar-
rangement by which the spring could
be distended and then suddenly con-
| traded served to jerk the string, and
the charge was exploded.
"One night I received a call from our
lieutenant colonel who had spent the
day directing movements from u re-
cently captured German dugout. He
told me he was nervous, and believed
he was associating with a 'booby,' and
asked me to send him a squad of engi-
neers to look it over. 1 went myself.
"The colonel sat in the dugout, about
ton feet dowu, on a chair by a table.
Directly in front of the chair was a
petrol can, and it was the can lie
feared. He had noticed it early in the
morning when the dugout was first oc-
cupied, but had no time to examine it
until evening. Then he found nothing,
but lie had a 'hunch' that it was a
trap and wanted expert assistance.
"1 dug a little trench around the
can, but could find no wires, and then
tapped it, but received no sound other
than that which might come from any
old empty can. There was nothing to
do but open it, and, borrowing the
colonel's can opener, I went at it as
gingerly as I cpuld.
"It was partly filled with about eight
pounds of one of the most deadly
powder explosives known to science.
This I removed very carefully, and in
the bottom of the can found the spring
detonator. It had been fastened to the
bottom of the can in such a way that
If the can had been lifted from the
floor of the dugout the charge would
have exploded, and the colonel and his
party would have been blown to bits.
"The colonel paled a little when I
showed him just what he had been as-
sociating with all day, and very fer-
vently thanked himself for obeying his
'hunch' to let that can alone."

In Armenia everybody has a Rood
time at a wedding except the bride-

Is expected to arrive when the enter-
tainment is at its height and it is
considered good form for him to ap-
pear with ills face covered with pow-
der to simulate pallor Induced by the
solemnity of the occasion. Friends of
the bridegroom then shave him pub-

of all his clothes, after which he is
supplied with a new set of garments
and completely dressed again. While
they are performing the offices of valet

The day after this opening marriage

Jet.
If you have made the trip to the
bottom of a coal mine and have seen
how the black lumps are made ready
for use, perhaps you know that jet,
the shiny black substance that yon
see so often, made into pretty orna-
ments, beads, buttons, etc., Is closely
akin to coal. The history of the for-
mation of jet is much like that of
coal. Thousands of years ago, masses
of wood were carried down Into the
sea by the rivers, and, there water-
logged, It sank and became embedded
In the mud. Pressure and heat and
the salt water wrought the change In
the wood. Even now traces of the
wood structure can be detected In the
Jet Itself. In year* gone by jet used
to be found in lumps off the coast of
Yorkshire, the Jet Incased In shale
known as Jet-rock, washed up by the
sea; but now that supply Is not suf-
flcient and Jet has to be regularly
mined. In Whitby, Yorkshire, the best
Jet is produced, but there are also
Important mines In France and Spain,
and America, too, ban quantities of
the shale, though It Is not systemat-
ically mined.
Alcohol From Molasses.
Several large concerns are making
alcohol from cheap molasses brought
from the West Indies. This molasses,
which is uneatable, is known as
"black strap." The internal revenue
chemists have been able, however, to
ferment it and to obtain not only al-
cohol but to so use the residue that
they g*t d.vcerin.
Four lots of "black strap" of 1,000
gallons each subjected to the new proc-
ess turned out a very excellent qual-
ity of glycerin. There are 100 gallons
of this clear dynamite glycerin, as it
is called, now on exhibition in the
treasury department. Samples of it
treated with nitric acid by a well-
known flrm of explosive makers, at
the request of the government, pro-
duced as good a nitro-glyceriu as the
market affords.
Nitroglycerin, when Incorporated
with pulp or other Inert substance
becomes dynamite. Thus out of the
simple sweets of the sugar bowl comes
forth the strength which will rend the
rock.

Before the recent war an enormous

hales, by weight, the fur from them
being used for felting purposes, anil
the nklns for making glue. The wur
