Petroleum Lamp Explosions.
cINoINNArI, April IA.


EDS. CoM.-My attention has been
called TO this subject, by the numerous
accidents occurring within the last few
weeks by the explosion of petroleum
lamps. Petroleum, or coal oil, being an
article used in almost every household
nowadays, it is highly important that
the public should have some knowledge
regarding this useful commodity, so
that accidents may be guarded against,
if, as some people suppose, petroleum
is explosive, but which, 1 think, is per-
fectly harmless. This can be proved by
any person, rs follows: Pour a small
quantity into u sancer, and apply a
light; if it takes fire, it should not be
used for domestic purposes. Should 1t
not take fire, it may be used with the
utmost safety.
Petroleum, or coal oil, for burning
purposes, If refined at IA proper specific
gruUity, will not explode; but some re-
liners, who look more to their pockets
than to the public interest, run too
much benZine into their oils, which
makes them too volatile, and liable to
explode. Some of your renders may
try the foregoing experiment, and
probably find that, in nine cases out of
ten, the oil will catch fire when the
light is applied, and so be increulous as
to the soundness of this test; but if they
get n genuine article, it will be found
applied. The difficulty in procuring II
genuine oil will only prove to what an
alarming extent the public is imposed
upon by spurious articles.
Most persons, who are in the habit OF
using this, oil will observe n "sputter-
ing noiseh in their lamps at times.
This is caused by chemical impurities
aud very frequently by too much TOdter
being put in the oil. This is readily
ascertained by examining the wick
when the "sputtering noise" occurs and
hard crust Will be found to have col
lected on the top of the wick. However,
as have mentioned before, ifthe oil is
too volatile it rises in the wick too rup-
idly to be consumed by the flame, con-
sequently 1t takes fire the whole way
down the wick, into the bowl of the
lamp, and ofcourse an explosion is the
result.
These facts show conclusively how
imperative it is for all oil coming into
the market to be properly inspected by
| duly qualified person, so that con-
SINNERS may be certain of obtaining a
good article, and not an oil which is
more dangerous to use tIlangunpowder.
1t would be well ifpeople could be in
duced to investigate this matter thor
oughly, and arrive ut some conclusion
which would be the means of prevent
ing numerous accidents.
By giving this letter place in your
| valued paper yon will oblige
Yours, respectfully,
GEORGE OWEN.

RECENT letters from Texas state
that the Convention has provided in
the Constitution that no part of the
S3, ,351, 1924 school fund, or of the $SO7,-
6s7 university fund, shall ever be ap:
piled TO the education of any but white
children; nor shall any tax collected for
school purposes be applied to the educa-
tion of blacks, except such as may be
collected from the blacks themselves.
The Convention also adopted a pro-
vision requiring residence of five
years in the State as a qualification for
a seat in the Legislature. This was de-
signed to keep Northern men out OF
that body.
