The reporter placed the dangerous con-

goods in the city, continued his conversation

Most celluloid is made in France. Would
you like to know howe Then listen: A roll
OF paper is slowly unwound, and at the same
time is saturated with mixture of five parts
OF sulphuric acid and two parts of nitric
acid, which falls upon the paper in fine
spray. This changes the cellulose of the
paper into pyroxyline gun cotton The ex-
cess of the acid having been expelled BY
pressure, the paper is washed with plenty Of
water until all traces of acid have been re-
moved. 1t is then reduced to pulp, and
passes on to the bleaching trough. 1t is this
gun cotton which gives it its explosive nature.
Most OF the water having been got rid of
py means OF strainer, the pulp is mixed with
from 70 to 40 per cent, of its weight of cam
phor, and the mixture thoroughly triturated
under millstones. The necessary coloring
having been added in the form of powder,
second mixing and grinding follows. This
pulp is spread out in thin slabs, which are
squeezed in a hydraulic press until thew are
as dry as chips. Then they are rolled in
heated rollers and come out in elastic sheets

Fire Escapes in Chicago.

Chief Shay thinks that Chicago is much
better provided with fire escapes than New
York
'sThe escape which they have adopted
there" said he, provides not only for the
descent of the people, but it affords great
assistance to the fireman. They use very
much the same ladders and balconies as we
do, only they run them up to the roof in
every case. With the ladders they have a
sort of standpipe which runs up the side of
the house. An engine can be put at the bot
tom. and then the firemen can climb up and
attach section of hose at any floor desired.
The engine fills the pipe and the firemen can
get directly at the IRE 1t saves dragging
hose upstairs Or ladders, secures quick work
on the building, and in many cases is handy
for use in playing upon neighboring build
ings In narrow street it gives a first rate
chance to operate from one side upon the
in cases where it is used upon buildings.n -
