WOOL made FRoM LIMESTONE
Chemical Process Which Turns Rocks to
Snowy Tieeces. t

T. =.
Wool from limestone IS the latest. &c
cording to the Chicago Chronicle. C. c.
Hall. chemist for the Union Steel Com
pany. at Alexandra, Ind. has Just ap-,
piled for patents upon process whereby
he is enabled to make the softes., whit
est. wool from the flntiest, toughest
limestone.
The remarkable character OF the In
vention IL better appreciated when Il Is
said that q Arm In Boston, one Of the
best-known wool weayers in the coun-
try, Is making experiments in convert
Ing this wool into clothing.
Water has no effect upon this article OF
wool, and fire will not harm Il. Another
point In its favor as a wool for winter
clothing lies In the fact that I. is one OF
the best nonconducturs known. II Is
imperrious to heat ana cold, and for
that reason would make most desirable
undertaking for Kiondikers. It could
not be worn In summer, as 1t would re-
tain all the heat OF the body, and this
would become in:clerahle.
But the greatest point In favor OF wool
made from rock lies in the claim that II
bring out all these qualities that the
Boston firm is now lending every energy
and expense to still further carry this
discovery into the mercantile world.
Once converted into cloth II would find
all kinds OF uses. Having the nonconi-
busiihle qualities OF asbestos. the weav-
ins qualities OF wool. the softness and
warmth OF camels hair and the insulat-

tains for fire protection, lining for fine
garments, carpets and for wrapping con-
duits, hot and cold water and air pipes,
packing engines and deadening sound,
all come within the scope OF its pcssiblli-
ties.
Hall made the discovery rather by ac-
ctdent. He was making some tests Of
stone needed at the Union steel mills and
ofted used in Iron and steel processes.
He happened upon limestone which.
when subjected To the tests. acted unex-
pectedly. The usual course OF stone un-
der the conditions he was submitting It
to is to become qulckllme, but In this in
stance It ran into lava. To all outward
appearance the stone was common
building rock.
This rock is found In inexhaustible
beds in this county and in other sections
Of the central states. The molten mass
was very pllable. like glass when IL Is in
the same state. Glass may be strung
on: like silk, and /; has been converted
into dress goods. from which Queen Vic
toria has a suit and one OF the leading
actresses has a costume. Hall conceived
the idea OF carrying his experiment Still
further. The machinery which he con-
siructed Is very complicated. This white
lava was subjected TO chemical baths
and then to drawing out process, by
which it was converted into the finest
and most pliable wool, white Us SNOW
and as soft Us down.
