One cannot Judge from the brief &C
causes of such disasters, but there is rea-
that many persons have only y vague
knowledge of such qualities Of nitro
glycerine, cannot recognize it when
they see it, and are not acquainted with
the various forms in which it is COM
pounded or with the peculiar dangers of
handling it carelessly. Nitro-glycerine
itself is q dense, yel|0wish liquid, but, in
order to diminish the danger attending
its USE fine earth, ground mica, saw
dust, or some similar powder, is saturn
ted with it, and thus the various blast
ing powders, known us dynamite, mica
powder, dualin, rend-rOck, etc., are
formed. These compounds can be trans
ported with comparative safety. But
the nitr,glycerine easily drains of from
the powder and oOzes from any crevice
in the vessel in which the compound is
kept. Drops Of it thus believing the
edges of u box may very easily Ike mis-
taken for oil escaping, and If w0rkmen
