MAKING ARTIFICIAL ICE.
How the Plants Are Constructed and OPP
Grated In Philadelphia.

How the Plants Are Constructed and OPP
Grated In Philadelphia.
Artificial cold or ice may be most
readily produced by the evaporation of
more or less volatile liquid. In the
first machines constructed this liquid
was water. One tenth of the amount of
water used was converted into ice, but
as it was necessary to maintain vac
uum in the apparatus its perfect work
ing was difficult problem. A more
readily volatile liquid, therefore, had
to be substituted, such as liquefied sui
phurous acid and liquetied ammonia.
Being gaseous at ordinary temperatures,
they are very suitable substances for
this purpose. The ammonia ice machine
is the one in most general use-in fact
it finds exclusive application in this
city. This liquefied ammonia is allowed
to expand in coils of pipes which are
placed in tanks filled with brine. The
temperature of the brine is thus reduced
to u point below the freezing point of
water-that is, to l4IS degrees f.
In this refrigerated brine are placed
of the large cakes of ice which one :
accustomed to see in the wagons thu
pass through our city streets. After a
period of 1890 hours this can of water
is converted into solid ice. The can is
hoisted out of the brine, warmed with
hot water, which allows the cake to
slip out upon a shoot that runs into the
storage rooms. The gaseous ammonia
in the pipes can be used over and over
again, "a large compression engine being
part of the plant, which reduces the
expense of the process. From this de-
scription it should be plain that there
can be no faint of ammonia to give "a
taste to the ice
The plants usually employ distilled
or artesian water so that the ice is of
the best quality. Whatever impurities
the water contains are collected i'll the
white streak found in the center of each
cake. The pure water separates from
the impure and freezes first Even ten
years ago the demand for ice was sup
piled from natural sources the har-
vests from our own Pennsylvania riv-
ers, which were stored every winter III
great houses on the shores Of the streams,
being supplemented by shipments
throughout the summer from Maine.
There are now in Philadelphia 6 ice
making plants, some Of which yield
over 100 tons per day each, and the arti
fetal product for several years has been
serious competitor of the natural arti-

The ship had no accommodation
whatever for passengers, and You can
| imagine the muss we were in when
that crowd of people were taken aboard.
The Hollander fatty refused to act as
captain or to have anything to do with
the castaways. He said we had deposed
him by mutiny and must now run
things to suit ourselves and take the
consequences. Everybody had to be put
on quarter allowance at once, and a
shift was made up whereby the women
and children were at least sheltered.
After consultation it was decided TO
make for the Bermudas, and on the third
day after taking the people Off the
wreck we sighted the American ship
Ocean Queen and secured from her sew
eral hundred gallons Of water and
quantity of -four and biscuit. 1t was q
run of seven days to the islands, and
during the last four days no adult had
food enough to keep down the pangs of
hunger. The mate proved so obstinate
and dangerous that his bonds were not
released, but he shared the food and
water with the rest and was treated as
kindly as circumstances would permit.
None of Us believed that we could be
punished for taking the ship out of the
captain s hands to save human life, and
/ am sure we should not have been med
died with but for the presence of Brit
ish man of-war in port. We had in
formed the Hollander Of our readiness
to work the ship to her port Of destina-
ton, and he seemed to think favorably
of the matter, but no sooner did he
learn of the presence of the man of war
than he appealed to her commander.
As result the ten of us were at once
arrested and flung into prison to await
the action of the law. / never found
out just where they intended to send us
for trial, but presume it was Holland.
For some reason or other there was a
long delay, and at length matters were
complicated by our being claimed as
deserters from an American man of
war The people whom we had saved
were grateful enough, God knows, but
all others looked upon us as lot OF
pirates who ought to have been hung as
soon as captured.
When we had been in Jail for five
months, we got word from an American
who was pretty thoroughly posted on
the case that we should soon be sent
away for trial and that we might ex
pect at least five years imprisonment
apiece This news decided us to make
an attempt to break Jail, and one night,
a week later, using tools which guard
had been bribed to pass in to us, we
sawed away the bars of window and
gained our liberty. Proceeding to the
harbor, we found an American schoon-
er ready to sail and awaiting our com
ing, and before our escape was discover
ed we We're miles at sea. Five of us sur
rendered to the naval authorities and
took our punishment and served out tEe
remainder of our enlistment, but what
became Of the others | do not know.
But for our action 200 people would
have been left to go down with wreck
on which they had drifted and suffered
for days and weeks, and yet that action
was rank mutiny and had the ship been
English instead of Dutch our two lead
ers would probably have been hung and
the rest of us got long terms in prison.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years ! have been q
sufferer from scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. C.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After SIX
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
inoval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had l only used your SIS. long ago,
l would have escaped years of misery
and saved over SI5o"
