As the result of thorough investiga-
ton Of the heat resisting qualities of
wired glass instituted by the Philadel-
phia Fire Underwriters association the
latter has made a report which must
be very serviceable to all interested in
this unique product The report declares
that such glass can be safely used in
slzylights and in such situations will
stand a severe fire and not give way
when water is thrown ON it. A wooden
framing for slylight, covered with tin,
all seams lock jointed and with nails
hidden, is superior in fire resisting quail
ity to iron framing. Wired glass in
wooden sash, covered with tin, all
seams lock jointed and nails concealed,
can safely be used for windows toward
an external exposure and in fire doors
to elevator shafts and stairway tow
ers, where it is necessary to light the
shafts; in Office buildings, hotels,
etc, where it is undesirable to have
elevator shafts entirely inclosed and
dark, wired glass permanently built
into brick or terra Gotta shaft, or
arranged in a metal covered wood
frame, can safely be used, and, again,
wired glass plates, securely fastened in
standard fire shutters, can safely be
used toward an external exposure-in
this case, the fact that a possible fire in
a building all the windows Of which
are protected by fire shutters can much
more readily be detected from the out
side through the wired glass is impor-

The methods of these ancient days
were totally different from those Of the
present day and were evidently vastly
more durable. Panels of wood were used
to paint on, sycamore and cypress, also
panels Of papier mache, and occasional
" they We're formed by gluing three
thicknesses Of canvas together. These
panels were usually about IA inches long
by inches wide. The artist used liquid
wax instead of oil to mix the colors,
which were made, not from vegetable,
but from mineral substances, and were
Of marvellous brilliancy and permanence
blue powdered lapis lazuli, green
malachite, red oxide of iron, etc. The
colors We're laid on in patches, some
what after the fashion Of mosaic, and
afterward blended with an instrument
called the cestrum, which appears to
have been lancet shaped spatula, long
handled, with at one end curved point,
at the other a finely dentated edge,
With the toothed edge the wax could be
equalized and smoothed, while the point
was used for placing high lights, mark
ing lips, eyebrows, etc.
The final process, which gives the
nome encaustic to this kind of painting,
was the burning in of the colors. This
was done by the application Of heated
surface to the panel, though George

the sun was probably all that was need

EXPLOSION on GAS.
Three Men Burned in the WIN. Pen
Mines To-day.

Three Men burned in the WIN. Penn
Mines To-day.
An explosion Of gas took place at $50
o'clock this morning in No. 1 slope of the
VIM. Penn coliery by which three men were
burned, but only one suffered seriously.
The victims were Joseph Sargent, william
Ladonberg and Philip Haggerty, all resi-
dents Of VIM. Penn. Sargent was badly
burned about the hands, face and body,
while the other two were slightly burned
about their bodies.
A report received from VIM. Penn this
afternoon states that Sargent and Haggerty
may not recover from the burns they re-
ccived. All the injured men are laborers
and unmarried.
As to the cause of the explosion it appears
that the three victims were going out with a
trip of cars when squeeze occurred
in the mine, causing two breasts
to run together and forcing the gas
from abandoned workings into the gangway
where it was ignited by the lamps Of the in
iured mon. When the squeeze started some
parties made an effort to notify three men of
tho danger, but hadn't time to 10 so.
