EXPLOSIVE DUSTS Terrific Energy of Sack of Flour Suspended in Air as Powder

Explosions in coal mines, flour and grain mills were mystery until quite recently, except where they could be attributed to the presence of iniiam- mable gas, and gas was blamed for many that were due to other causes. until it was demonstrated that carbo- iaeeous dusts mixed with air would explode with great violence, says ths New York Commercial. This fact was proved half century or more ago as far as coal mines were concerned. but 1t was not until 1878 that explosions In -four mills were traced to similar. cause A committee of -four and grain miliers has been studying this subject in cooperation with the United States bureau of mines. and at this somewhat t late date the first offtqial report of the scientists has seen theNlight.
 Some of the results of the expers- ments made by the experts are start ling. They calculate that a sack of -four suspended as dust in 4ooo cubic feet of air (as in a room 20x20x10). when tentted would generate sufficient force fo throw 2500 tons 100 feet hieh In theory. based on heat units, coal is more powerful than gunpowder. and this ssems to hold good when coal

The board of revenue will tsise m further steps looking toward the erec- non of new county jail in this county until 1t is assured that money will be forthcoming with which to finance tha structure

 The resolution was passed as q re- suit Of the complaints of Dr. w. H Oates state prison inspector. regard ing the present structure He was present yesterday and urged that more definite steps be taken, but to this the board would not agree
 pr. Oates wished to have the county architect proceed with his plans for the new structure, but the board took the position that it was useless to do anything further until it was assured that money would be available and that it would be a needless expense on the county
 Members of the board last night said that they were confident that there would be a number of bidders for the warrants and that there will be little trouble in selling them Bids for the warrants will be received until Janu- ary IL
