the air. The mine need not be made
overwnrm, but 1t must be made moist.
The government experts have shown
how this may be brought about. They
have brought 1t about in the explosives
chamber and the result has been i'm
munity from coal dust explosions there.
Into the stream of air that the fan
sends into that chamber n jet Of steam
has been introduced The quantity of
steam necessary for the purpose in hand
Is known and that amount Is fed into
the air current. That current absorbs
the steam as you have seen the air take
up the steam that comes from the escape
pipe of an engine. The air is moist from
having done so. The moisture is car
rfed into the chamber or into the mine
and every individual particle of dust is
captured and corresponding particle of
moisture is placed on 1t which, settles it.
The mine is made safe.
at all mines there is a vast amount of
escape steam from all the engines. This
steam can be readily caught and led to
the ventilating shaft, where the fans are
putting In the air and released into that
current of air The process is simple
and inexpensive. The discovery, like all
great ones, is also simple, yet it means
added safety to the hundreds of thou
sands Of men who spend their lives under
ground, and whose present position is
Taught with terrible risk.
Yet the world has waited on the United
States to find these simple things out
Abroad every known care is taken to
safeguard the miners, and scientists have
studied these problems for hundreds of

mite was set off In the chamber and no
explosion took place. The coal dust
condition with regard to explosiveness
seemed to have been overcome.
Then followed the study of the air In
the mines with regard to moisture. One
of the first discoveries made was that
the air went into the mine at a tenn
perature of 80 degrees or less during the
winter. 1t came out at a temper
allure of 45 degrees or more. 1t is a
well-known scientific fact that as air be-
comes warm it takes up moisture. Warm
air under the same conditions other than
temperature will hold vastly more water
than will cold air.
AS matter of fact, it was discovered
that the air coming out Of the mine under
examination was much more heavily
charged with moisture than was that
going in. 1t got the moisture out of the
mine. In this particular case the air was
drinking up and carrying away 80 tons
OF moisture each day from this mine.
At the rate of so tons day 1t would
take no great time to make that mine as
dry as bone. This thing had actually
happened.
The argument was offered that there
was water In the mine and that the air
would naturally take its supply of mois-
ture from the water, and that the body
or the mine would not necessarily suffer
1t was conclusively shown, however, that
the particles of air drink up the moisture
from that with which they come In con-
tact. Where they touched the surface of
the water they would consume 1t, and
where they came in contact with the face
OF the coal they would drink M what

the big guns loaded to the muzzles and
the big white warships cleared fdr in
slant action. 1t was in Turkish territory
and the Turkish governor left for the in
terror of Africa on a feet horse when
the first gun doomed /out its mighty
threat of death. Only the sight of an
American flag waving from a fort pre-
vented a bombardment. Under the flag
WAS found a very pale young American
in a white pith helmet. He had wired
home the wrong cable word in the State
Department cipher, and President Roose-
welt was informed that this American
consul had been foully murdered. The
mistake was cleared up by the supposed
murdered man in person, and the war
ships, which belonged to the American
Mediterranean fleet, returned to their
cruising grounds near Gibraltar.
What A Consul Is.
The technical distinction between the
consuls and the real diplomats who are
minister and ENJOYS extraordinary and
ambassadors is that the consul is ac-
credited to the government of the country
while the diplomats are sent personally
to the ruler of the land, whether an en-
peror, king, shah, emir or a mere repub-

little they found there. There was little
water surface exposed and much coal
surface.
In this way the tendency of the cold
airs of the winter to take on moisture in
warming Is shown to dry out the mines.
When dry the dust naturally flies to
greater extent. Sprinkling has beer
found ineffective, for 1t can reach but
the surface of the coal, cannot penetrate
to a great mass that is to be tumbled
down, for instance. and cannot reach the
particles that are floating in the air and
which furnish the real danger.
The mine fills up with coal dust In the
winter. Something in the operation of
the mine, such as the setting off of a
blast, causes it to explode and the great
tragedy has occurred. In the summer
the air is warm and moist when 1t en-
tiers the mine. 1t takes on no additional
moisture and the mine Is left damp.
There is less tendency on the part of
the coal to become dust, and when the
dust particles in the air come in con-
tact with the moisture 1t contains they
settle again to the ground. Explosions
from coal dust rarely occur fn>the sum-
mertime on this account.
Having shown that explosions rarely
occur in summer the logical conclusion
is that If summer conditions can be pro-
duced In the wintertime explosions would
not occur at that season. This Is the
big discovery that promises to revolution
lie the mining industry with relation to
its protection Of its workers. This sum-
mer condition need apply only to the
necessity of the presence of moisture In
