How TO EXpTOpEA BAMp--Thc Scientific
Amer i1an gives some oi the circumstances
Which lead 10 the explosion ni kerosene lamps,
the philosophy OF all Of them being That The
flame lnag pass down the wick and lgnlIc the
Vapor which accumulatea in the upper portion
Of the lamp. This rapor is not All explosive
As the term ls ordinarily understood, but WheG
it is confined so that The gaaea resulting from
ts combustion canuot escape freely lutO the
open air the vessel cOntnlng it will be shattcr
ed. This ignition of the vapor may be brought
about rs tollows:-
|. A lamp may be standing on table or
mante, and slight pull OF air from the open
window or door may cause an explosion.
2. A lamp may he taken up quickly from
table or mantcl and instantly exploded.
B. a lamp is taken out into the entry where
there is DRAFT, or out Of doors, and IN cSplo'
sion cnSues.
4. A lighted lamp is taken up 4 flight OF
stairs or is raised quickly to place it on the
mantcl, resulting in 40 explosion. ln these
cases the mischief is done by the air movement
either by suddenly checking the draft, or
forcing air down the chimney against the flame
5. Blowing down the chimney TO cxtiugulah

G. Lamp explosions havebccn caused by l!s NJ
q chimney broken of at the top, or one that
has piece broken out, whereby the drai /.

The news is just received here Of the
death, by suicide, of a man named r.
o. Gribble, In Astoria, by cutting his
throat. There are some very peculiar
circumstances connected with the az
fair, and a strong impression prevails
that Gribble was foully dealt with. A
full and thorough investigation Of the
affair Is being made by the Coroner. A
man named Jones was with Gribble at
the time the deed was alleged to have
