Tubular Rails.

EXPLOSIVE DUST.
a welI-Defined Belief That Coal Dust u
the Can.e of CoIlierY ENnln.ions.

a weII-Defined Belief That Coal Dust il
the Cause of CoIIiery Explosions.
Explosions in -four mills have had in
numerous instances n well-ascertained
cause in the presence of an impalpable
dust floating in the interior of the mill.
This dust, mixed with heated air in
confined and unventilated spaces. has
taken fire, whether from match care
lessly struck, from a lamp or from
sparks emitted BY the machinery, and
when thus ignited has proved as de-
structive as gunpowder. But the the
ory that a similar cause may exist foI
explosions in collicrieS is n compare
lively new one. and owes its rise to the
marked resemblance between flour mill
explosions notably those which oC-
Cured at Minneapolis some time 40
and the disasters of like character
which so often take place In coal
mines, and are attended with such pc
culiar and distressing fatality. The
suggestion of an identity of cause IN
these two classes of casualties has led
to numerous experiments in England
and on the continent of Europe; and
the results have been such as TO lead to
a well-defned belief that coal dust, in
stead of the carburated hydrogen gas
commonly known as fire-damp, is the
principal source of colliery explosions
1t was found that the dust of certain
kinds of coal was highly explosive.
while that of other varieties showed
less liability, and some none at all, but
that even where fre-damp was the chiei
source of the disaster it was greatly az
gravated by the presence of coal dust.
The experiments were made by English.
French and Prussian scientists, and the
English and Prussian reports agree
substantially in the conclusion that
coal dust is the principal agency in
colliery explosions. So generally Is
this view adopted in England that a
coroner's jury, in their verdict upon
the Usworth Mine explosion, by which
some forty lives were lost, declared il
as their opinion that 1.-The explosion
was caused by a shot, the fire of which
acted upon the coal dust and small
percentage of gas" The French OBJ
servers are inclined to doubt whether
coal dust alone is liable to explode.

LAWN TENNIS.
The Remarkable Antiquity Of Very Popu-
lar Game.

The Remarkable Antiquity of Very Popu-
lar Game.
Ages ago the sun saw the beginnings
of tennis. 1t is not quite certain
whether it was on the banks of the
Nile or the Ganges, or at Nineveh; but
somewhere this same sun saw a group
of half-naked, bronze-limbed Youngsters
throwing balls or dried gourds back
and forth, using their hands for bats,
and doubtless having quite as much
fun, after barbarous fashion. as we
have nowadays with cork-handled
Franklin rackets, regulation balls, and
a set of printed rules.
Generations rolled by, however, be
fore the pioneers of tennis had them
selves carved on stone slabs, and still
other ages before Gordian I'LL and
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus had coins
struck, in honor of the Pythian Apollo,
bearing devices which represented
athletes serving and returning balls,
and using their hands as rackets.
Even at that early day it was found
desirable to protect the hand by means
of gauntlets, but It was not until the
fourteenth century, so far as can be
ascertained, that bats or rackets were
invented. and the game grew into some
thing no altogether unlike that which
is played to-day.
The regular tennis court of the mid
die ages was a very elaborate affair.
with divisions and galleries and rail-
ings and penthouse roofs" and a
carefully laid stone pavement, all of
which made it very costly game to
play, and only Kings and the richest
of the nobility could have tennis courts
of their own. These courts need not
be described here, but they were not
unlike the lawn courts ofto-day in size
and shape. At first there was a line
stretched across the middle; then a
fringe was added to this line, and by
the beginning of the last century "a.
ID. 1900 the net was adopted much as
at present used.
