the hopper is a movable shooft operated
by an outside trigger. The hopper Is
loaded with -four or mill dust, and the
mouth of the gun is covered with stout
newspaper. The lighted gas creates an
upward .draught and heats the air.
When the trigger is pulled and the dust
or -four is charged with the heated air,
tremendous explosion follows, the
building trembles with the shock, the
paper is blown to shreds, and takes fire
by the great heat generated in this way.
Upon the day of the destruction OF
the three Minneapolis mills, they had
been running all day to the fullest ca
pacity; the machinery was heated and
the air was charged with dust, for the
wheat of that year was exceptionally
hard and dense. A workman carried
an open lantern to the dust shoot to
examine some machinery that had be-
come defective. A draught of air rush
ing in carried before it the fame and
the dust, and in a few seconds, after
three tremendous detonations, flames
leaped up from the mass of ruins of three
great structures.
It is well known that the air of flour
mill is very dry, as is demonstrated by
the electricity generated by the belts,
and that fine -four will rapidly deprive
the atmosphere of its natural humidity.
This fact, taken with the others adduced,
renders valuable the advice that the
shafts of mills should be provided with
wet bulb thermometers, and that when
the air becomes abnormally dry, live
steam should be injected from the boil
ers into the mill; and, as moist at
mosphere is held by competent millers
to be conducive to making whittier and
better kind of -four, there seems to be
no objection to this remedy.-N Y. San.

Is Flour Explosive?

The terrible mill explosions in differ

Minneapolis, have appeared mysterious
In their origin. Perhaps the theory of
Prof. T. w. Tobin, advanced at the re-
ception of the Millers' Association by
the Polytechnic Society of Louisville on
Thursday last, MY b. suffi :ient to ex-
plain the cause of some of these explo-
sions. Certainly nothing so plausible
has been advanced to account for the
sudden destruction of the mills in Glas-
gov, Scotland, and in Minneapolis, and
millers may we'll heed the warning that
there is a giant force locked up in the
familiar wheat berry which, when the
right time arrives can, without mo-
ment's warning, convert scene of
thrift and industry into one of desola-
ton.
There are certain conditions in which
the simplest sub stances become the
most dangerous. Hydrogen heated with
air evolves a violent explosive force.
Chlorate of potash will not ignite, and
starch extinguishes a taper that is
plunged into il; but mixture of the
bustible, but explosive. The fine dust
from the wood of furniture factory in
q mass will not take fire readily, but if a
heap of it is charged. with air from a
bellows a fame will leap out of it when
lighted taper is applied; and the same
Is true of 6ne patent flour.
The minute spores of the club moss
form an almost impalpable pc vder, yet
it is highly inhammable, and is often
used in the manufacture of fireworks
and the artificial representation of
lightning. 1t is maintained by Prof.
Tobin that the dust on the outside of
the wheat grain contain similar organic
spores, which render the dust shaft and
dust rooms the most dangerous plsces
In mills. To illustrate the explosive
ness of flour, the Professor has devised

shaft and barrel, with gas burner at

these obstacles of privation and uncer-
tain support by the force of~theH con-
seeration. But those who stand g. the
sources of supply have sounded an
alarm. They tell us the volume OF the

men of talents and education say they
will not enter the ministry because,
among other reasons, they cannot get
