A FIRE CONQUEROR.
A Satisfactory Exhibit of the Harden Hand
Grenade.

AT B o'clock yesterday afternoon Chief Fire
Engineer Webster, several insurance men, and
number of business men gathered at fire head
quarters, on the corner of Massachusetts avenue
and New York street, to note the working of
the Harden Hand Grenade Fire Extnguisher
DR.. A. NJ. Alexander, who is the State agent for
Indiana, had got together lot of pine wood and
kindlings upon which tar oil and other com
bustible material had been spread, and then
ignited it. The blaze cracked and roared and
the heat sufficiently intense to drive the
spectators back quite a distance DR.. AleXan-
der was apparently in no haste The fire grew
hotter, when the Doctor stepped forward and
threw grenade after another until six
had been used. The Grenade is fluid in a
spherical bottle holding less than quart with
a short neck AS the bottle is broken over the
flames the chemicals of which the fluid is com
posed discharge large quantities of fire-ex-
tinguishing gas, sufficient to cover very broad
surface of flame. and the action of the fire upon
the fluid causes still further generation of the
gas. A recent test here Of preparation claim
ing to do similar work failure. No fail
ure can take place with the Harden Grenade as
the bottles are not only firmly corked,
below the mouth of the bottle, but
above the cork is another stopper of Portland
cement which is air tight. The grenades used
in yesterdays trial had been in charge of Chief
Fire Engineer Webster for more than month,
but no stress is laid by DR.. Alexander upon that
as they are so sealed that the fluid will keep
good for century. Every one was thoroughly
pleased with the result of the exhibition of the
extinguisher, and it was further shown that the
fluid is harmless to the person and clothing. If
simply thrown into the fire the heat will soon
break the grenades, and smother the flames. If
the fire can be approached close enough to do So
it is safe and effective way of quenching it to
take two of the grenades by their necks and
break them against each other over the fire. 1t
certainly is a cheap and ready extinguisher and
has the hearty Endorsement of all who have
seen it.
There will be another test tomorrow after
noon at o'clock, at the same place
