had, dr dinner they call 1t here o.

tom into pieces the size of the wood
used in making chairs. Every shred
Of bark was stripped from them, and
the wood looked as II IL had been
shredded UP for firing. A similar in
stance occurred some years ago, when
an oak In the grove below the foot of
the White Lodge. in Richmond Park,
exploded under lightning shock. The
bark flew off and simply disappeared
in small patches and the rest of the
ments.
In these cases II is probable that the
current sets up such a tremendous
heat that all the sap in the tree is
converted into superheated steam,
which explodes. The greater the heat,
the more of the cells in which mols-
ture lies are exploded, and the greater
the destruction of the tissues of the
tree. AS there is most moisture be-
tween the bark and the trunk, the
first and greatest explosion takes place
there, instantly driving the bark away
into space. Frequently the explosion
only takes place at that point.
AS Sir Hiram Maxim pointed out
after the great explosion OF Mont Pc
lee, a very similar method is now
used by the American manufacturers
of wood pulp. The logs OF fir are placed
in strong chamber, and there sub
jected 10 the action of superheated
steam until the water in every cell is
converted into explosive gas The
chamber lis then opened. and the log
explodes, converting itself into wood
powder.
