WATER-PR00FING OF CLOTH
Idea for Process Known as Craven
cite" Accidentally Obtained in
Yorkshire Dye House.

The water-proofing of cloth, SO uni
versal today, was unknown twenty
five years ago. In 1890. Thomas Fearn.
ly Wiley, of Bedford, took out the first
patent for the process known as era
venette." He got the idea from an ac-
cident in Yorkshire dye house Ger.
tain materials had been wrongly dyed
and the workmen we're directed to
wash out the surplus logwood color
with alum. After the material had
been dried the improvement was SO
marked that the dyer ordered a repe-
ution Of the alum washing The cloth
was sent to the wetting machine, but
the workmen found that they could
not wet it. 1t passed through the wa.
ter and came out dry. Thus was
the discovery made that cloth could be
waterproof and yet remain porous.
The process used today is as follows:
Cloths intended for rain-proofing are
hrst freed from grease and are then
saturated with the clear liquor obtain
ed in adding together solutions of pure
sulphate of alumina and acetate of
lead. The lead is precipitated out and
the acetate of alumina is died in the
fabric. The cloth undergoes further
treatment with wax, which is some
times applied frictionally from a block
under the pressure of a pneumatic
roller. Under the method more gen
orally used, the wax, or mixture Of
wakes, is melted by heat and applied
in an infinitesimally fine film by the
action of a ductor roller.

Best Of Fire Alarm Boxes.

After work extending over two
years, officials of New York city have
devised a fire alarm box which has
been dedicated to the use Of New
York without royalty, and 1t is ex-
pected that the cost under competitive
bidding will not exceed s45. The
price Of fire alarm boxes during the
last several years under competitive
bidding has run from SIS to SITS each.
The average price has been $125 each
The estimated saving, therefore, will
be $50 a box. The fire department
experts have finished their box Just
in time to meet the needs of the city,
as only six per cent. of the boxes are
modern, the rest being obsolete and
many being in an unsafe and even
dangerous condition.
