Snow Indoors.

It is quite possible to have fall Of
snow within doors. Indeed, the thing
has actually occurred. and the cause
was no other than that which produces
a fall Of snow in the open a!r-i. e.,
subsection of moist atmosphere to a
temperature cold enough to crystalline
the drops of moisture that were form
ed
The event, which is of authentic
record, occurred in Stockholm. On a
very cold, clear night an evening party
was in progress. Many persons were
gathered in a single room, and 1t be-
came 80 warm that the window was
thrown open. Immediately a cold cur
rent of air rushed in. and at the same
instant flakes of snow were seen to
fall to the floor in all parts of the room.
The entrance of a frosty current into
atmosphere saturated with moisture
had produced snowfall indoors

A Thousand Miles of oesola.ion.

Fire waste in the United States and
Canada Is about ten times that OF west
ern Europe. 1t averages broadly $780,
coo, 900 yearly with S150.000.000 added
expense for protective measures I'M
peratively demanded by this great. con-
.inuous. and increa sing loss.
The 1910 fire waste would pay the
total interest bearing debt Of the coun-
Try in four years: or would build the
Panama canal in less than two years.
In other terms. it exceeds the com bined
cost OF the United States army ana
navy and the interest on the national
debt: or nearly equals the combined
annual failures and pension payments
IN the United States: or exceeds the
com bined United States gold and silver
production and postoffice department
receipts-these all annual figures.
II all buildings burned last year in
the United States were placed together
on both sides Of street. they would
make an avenue OF desolation reaching
from Chicago to New York. and altho
one seriously injured person were res
cued every thousand feet, at every
three quarters of mile a man, woman
or child would nevertheless be found
burned to death.
This FIRE loss averages SO per capita
In America each year. az against ~
cents in Europe. 1t is absolute loss, and
not ever transferrance Of value. 1t pos
itively does no good to anyone About
tWo-thirds OF this waste In life and
property in this country could easily
be avoided by means similar to those
employed in western Europe. where the
loss is about one-tenth of ours.-Pow-
