The nlicrobe of Evil.

Dr. Lombroso has written paper
in which he demonstrates that there
Is peculiar magnetism in crowds.
which renders them open to sugges.
tons OF crime and violence. and ex-
plains most revolutionary crimes az
committed by people in more or less
hypnotic state. This explains why
some of the worst horrors have not
been the work OF habitual criminals.
He quotes another authority to prove
that "a crowd is a soil in which the
microbe OF evil developes easily. and
the microbe of good dies almost al
ways for want OF favorable condi-
lions" and that in crowd the
good elements are eliminated and
the bad multiplied by n mathemati-
cally unerring law. This Is partly
due to the want OF moral courage
men being ashamed to show their
better feelings-.partly to real hyp.
motto suggestions, which ia this arti-
Gle is made to do duty to an extraor-
binary extent--as it Is supposed TO
explain even the fact that pupil
learns faster from a favorite teacher.

There is report in Munich that the

apathy to momentary intelligence. He

OF the term White Caps than there

The term did not originate in this
country, but its origin dates back
nearly a century to County Kerry

Nitro 81 cerine is the force OF all
high explosives. Dynamite 10 the
name most usually given TO these ex-
plosives though other names are
sometimes used.
Dynamite Is simply nitro glycerine
mixed with various Ingredients. Nitro
glycerine Is made by mixing sulphur
ic and nitric acid with sweet glycer-
Inc. the same that Is used by the
ladies TO prevent chappod hands.
Mixing the acids and glycerine Is
where the great danger lies In the
making OF nitro-glycerine. The mix
ing tank. or agitator as 1t Is called
by dynamite makers. IL a largo steel
tank. filed inside with many coils OF
lead pipe through which. while the
mixing Is In progress constant flow
OF ice water Is maintained. This
flow OF ice water is used to keep the
temperature OF the mix below 85 deg.
as above that point 1t would explode.
and a hole In the ground would mark
where the factory had been. The
nitro glycerine Is stored In large
earthenware tanks which are usually
sunk In the ground to guard against
blows or severe conclusion.
The other Ingredients for making
dynamite are: Nitrate OF soda.
which Is found only in Chilli carbon
ate OF magnesia and wood pulp
Dynamite is put in paper shells
usually Ia inches in diameter and 3
inches in length. and weighs about
one-half pound to each shell or cart
ridge. 1t has largely taken the place
OF black powder for blasting. as 1T Is
many hundreds OF times stronger and
consequently moro economical. 1t Is
used chiefly In mining all kinds Of
ores coal and rock. and submarine
blasting and railroad building. With
out its aid many railroads especially
those crossing the Rocky mountains
could not have been constructed;
without 1t He'll Gate In New York
harbor could not have been destroyed.
and without IL the MINER at prices
now paid for mining ores could not
earn his bread.
Dynamite will not explode from
any ordinary fall or jar; it will burn
without explosion. and freeze at AZ
degrees 10 degrees above ordinary
| freezing point The bomb OF the an
archist is made OF metal or glass filed
with pure nitro glycerine arranged SO
as to explode by severe contact with
any hard object These bombs are
of course. never made by reputable
| dynamite factory.
Five or six millions OF dollars are in
vested in the manufacture OF dyna-
mite in the United States and Its use
is constantly on the increase. The
fumes OF nitro glycerine produce in
tense headache which can be cured
by taking a very small dose OF 1t in.
