ThaWing Blasting Powder.

AS the cold season has ar
rived when nitro.glycerine
powders in the form of giant
powder, dynamite, dualin, ETC.,
are liable to freeze and become
hard when the temperature
falls below AZ degrees Fair
enheit, and becomes inactive
if used in that condition, it is
therefore necessary to resort
to the thawing.out process by
increasing the heat. If this
is done by the radiation of
warm air in front of an open
fire, it has the effect of causing
the nitro-glycerine in the car
fridge to collect on the sur
face or paper covering, and if
the heat is allowed to be ex-
cessive, to collect in drops,
which when overheated either
take fire or explode. Every
mine manager ought to pro.
hibit this manner of thawing
powder, and discharge the
man who does it in that way.
The proper and safe way Of
thawing powder is to have a
kettle with hot water outside
/: of an inner or smaller kettle
on the plan of carpenter:
glue pot or a farina kettle
with tight closing covers ano
place the powder in the inside

A Legal Definition Of Electricity.

In view of the connection between
English and Continental electrical
engineering, it will be useful to
know what rights and restrictions
appertain to electricity. A jurist,
writing ia Swiss paper, opens up
the question OF the legal definition
OF electricity, and as to what extent
it can be treated as property. Gas,
for instance, is property, because
it can be put in receptacles, and
even turned into fluid; but electrici-
ty is difficult to store, and, when
stored, only develops chemical ener-
gy. II one refers to recent extra
ordinary decision of the Imperial
Courts Of Germany, then no magis-
trate can ever commit any one who,
without being entitled, took electri-
city to point called @ from a wire
connecting A and B; but, as the
axiom holds good--nulla p@na sine
lege-the nearest category under
which it may be classed would be
fraud. Referring to the civil code,
the question is asked, "What is the
delivery of current?" Customer d
gets current direct from the central
station, and gives it to E. Is that,
on the part OF d, a lease or pur-
chase? 1t must be a purchase, be-
cause the power is not only used,
but consumed; that is to say, it can
not be used over again. A point
which is especially advocated in
legal circles as being a matter that
should be brought before the legis-
lature is that rights OF appropriation
over power current conduits or over
private electrical apparatuses should
be recognized as soon as percepti-
BILE increase in the national wealth
is evident as the result of the estab-
lishment Of those works. That is
only just, because at present there
are such stringent regulations as to
to security against accidents, and
under the existing law, the govern
ment can disturb any of these works
for the "public good" without giving
any pensation. A man who is
enterprising enough to start these
works under such conditions is at
least entitled to rights of expropri-
ation.- London Electrical Engineer.

Military Disadvantage of Hawaii

Military Disadvantage OF Hawaii
The favorite argument of annex
ationists is the military advantage
to be gained from the requirement
of the Hawaiian Islands. Those who
advocate the taking in OF this distant
territory seem to hold that the
matter of-national defense overtops
every consideration of justice or
policy that is urged against an
ne1ation. The military side Of the
question has been given careful
attention by Baron Won Hoist, the
eminent authority on the American
constitution, who ia at present a
professor in the Chicago University.
His first comment is that we are
the one nation on earth whose peace
is wholly in its own hands, for the
foreign governments are not COM
posed of idiots and only if they
were idiots could they fail to see that
even successful war waged against
this country would be to them
absolutely barren Of advantages.
Prof. Won Hoist considers it only
too true that we might be involed in
a war, but would we be the stronger
for having possession OF Hawaii He
answers emphatically in the negative,
although admitting it might seem so
at first sight. He credits Capt.
Mahan, our leading naval authority,
as having exploded the naive notion
that islands confer by themselves
control over a body of water, and
adds:
To be of military value, we must
have an adequate navy, and to be
adequate our navy would have to be
much larger when Hawaii is ours;
for it would have to protect not only
our coasts and our shipping, but
also Hawaii, which would surely be
principal object of attack in war
with frstclass naval power. Now
we are practically invulnerable. Is
it rational to acquire without any
need spot at which an ensmy can
hit us Infinitely harder than any
whore else? We would annex not a
source of strength, but of weakness.
And it would be a step that could
not be retracsd. To make the best
OF bad job would be all that was
left to us.
Prof. Won Hclst takes the position
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-09

that the criterion for deciding the
the question OF annexation is not
the wishes or interests Of the isl
anders, but the interests of the
people OF the United States, and he
has demonstrated very conclusively
that the military side OF the ques-
tion offers no such advantages to
this government as certain promoters
OF annexation in the senate and out
of it have acclaimed about with
great epthusiasm.-De Detroit Free Press.
