of the Thames on fire was no longer joke,
but reality. BY dashing small bottle of

Produced which illuminated the whole place.
He then laid down four plates of red hot iron
on four bricks and one of his attendants walk
ed over them barefoot, without any injury. By
wetting his fingers in ammonia, the Professor
dipped them into crucible of melted lead, and
let the metal run off in the shape of bullets in
