ANOTHER DEATH FROM THE EXPLOSIVE LAMP
LIoUiDs.-Well, Messrs. Editors, it has turned
out as feared it would ! the host Of explosive
lamp liquids has added another victim to their
life-destroying agency, in the person of Mrs,
Durham, after nine days intense suffering.
g All the result of carelessness!" excaim those
who use these dangerous and destructive agents.
Foolish and thoughtless apologists! do your
excuses prevent the recurrence OF these lamen-
table. disasters? You, yourselves, are more
liable to death from its use than the workmen
in powder-mill are. But it was not careless
ness that produced the disaster in Mrs. Dur
hams case. She was filing lamp not less
| than six feet distant from one that was burning,
and 1T was the gas from the containing vessel
\ which these volatile fluids are continually evolv-
ing in large quantities, that communicated with
\ the distant fame and exploded.
Y And SO IL is, In nine cases out of ten, with
the explosion of these substances. fla gill Of
any of them be poured in a large plate, and a
flame be instantly brought in contact with it,
before allowing time for the escape of any of
their gases, it will not explode, but blaze up
suddenly and be quickly consumed. The con-
slant danger in their use is, their rapid evolu-
tion Of explosive gas. They are hundred per
cent more dangerous to handle than powder.
But they are SO cheap and such clean light
producers-urge those who use them Fudge!
They are not a whit cheaper than the very best
oil, or Judd's patent sperm candles at half q
dollar pound, as any one can prove to his sat
sfaction by comparing them with oil or candles,
The truth is, the law Of supply and demand
equalizes the prices of all things of like
nature and the consumer may be assured that
the makers and sellers of these explosive liquids
cannot, if they would, produce and sell, at
cheaper price, more of one light-producer, to
give the same amount of light in the same time,
than of cnother. In other words, you. cannot
buy any light-producer of equal intensity and
duration with Judd's patent sperm candles,
cheaper than you can buy Judds candles them
selves. AS to the cleanliness of these explosive
liquids, the argument is worse than folly, for it
may be given for the use Of Illuminating powder
as light-producer, and yet no one is mad
enough to use Illuminating powder for such a
purpose. More anon. a. MN
