EXPLOSIONS IN MINES.
A Device For Combining Them to Their
Point of Origin.

~ 1eSicS e or Confinin9 nen 10 itsH
Point of Origin.
At last a device has been discovered
to limit an explosion in coal mine to
certain workings and keep it from
spreading to others. The device was
discovered by Teffanel and is now used
to great extent in Germany and Is
being tried in the United States. 1t
all hinges on the fact that if you can
cool body, even an igniting gas, be-
low the point OF ignition it will go out
The most familiar experiment to
show this principle Is that Of the wire
and the candle. If a piece of copper
wire be twisted into a spiral and one
end thrust into a candle fame the can
die will grow DINNER and finally go
out, for the copper wire, being good
conductor of heat, conducts off the heat
faster than it is formed and brings the
wick below the point Of ignition
TeTanei's device is to put up numer-
GUS shelves across the horizontal tnn-
nels in mines and to fill these with
broken stone. The stone, as the front
Of the explosion, consisting of burning
gas, reaches it, absorbs great deal Of
| tie heat. 1t has been found In actual
trials that the explosion goes on for
about 200 feet beyond the shelves of
stone and then ceases.
| The miners safety lamp invented by
! Davy shows the same principle. 1t is
nothing but an ordinary wick sur
rounded with a wire gauze. An expIo-
sive mixture will, Of course, seep
through the gauze and become ignited
by the fame, but it will not explode
beyond the gauze on account of the
fine heat conducting qualities OF the
latter. The same thing is seen in the
laboratory when a flame is held under
wire netting. 1t will not appear
above the netting. If lighted above
the netting it will not appear below it

times indie; te periods of stress through
which the wood passed when it was
growing. They may even be taken as
sort of check on the official record Of
wind storms. as in the case of some
lumber tested at the forest service lab
oratorv at NJ adison, Wisconsin.
The markSk are caused by what are
called compression failures, which
occur when the fibers bend or buckle
under a too heavy strain. in cutting
up logs collected for experiments at the
| laboratory. it was noticed that these
compression failures appeared on the
north side of number of trees which
came from the same locality in Florida.
BY counting the annual rings of the
wood and from knowledge of the time
when If was cut in the forest, IL was
decided that the compression failures
must have been caused by a severe wind
from the south about the year 1898. In
| ouiries were made in Florida and il
1 was found that a hurricane had. in
/ fact. swept over the region at the time
/ indicated.
The experiments have determined
/! that the strength of a piece of wood
NAV be seriously impaired by slight
lcompression failures due to rough
handling. Dropping a beam across 2
skid may cause compression failure
at the point at which the beam strikes
the skid and it viii be at this point that
the beam gives way when it breaks un-
der strain too severe for the weaken
ed fbers to withstand. Hitherto un-
accountable breakage in hickory wagon
(, spokes and other presumably strong ma
kteriaI are now attributed TO compress

j eesses.

Worlds Largest. Armory.

The largest armory In the world, 1t
is asserted, is now being built in New
York city for the Eighth coast artil-
lery at KingsbridSe road and Jerome
avenue. 1t will extend for 375 feet on
Jerome avenue and 600 feet on Kings
bridge road, covering an area eqnal to
ninety city lots, and its sUperstructure
requires 5000 tons Of steel. The roof
arches have the greatest span of any in

those at the Chicago exposition, ever
had a greater, and this has,since been
