MANY Dangers Lurk in Factory Dust

tnNhFEBRuARY 20 Inst, at Mani
-towttc, Wis, a number Of girls in
an aluminium goods factory were put
ting a satin finish on articles of that
metal, holding them for the purpose
against rapidly revolving steel brushes.
The air Of the room was full of alumni
mum dust. A piece of iron wire, caught
in the blades of a blower fan, gave off
a spark which ,gnited the dust, and an
explosion followed, which killed sin of
the girls.
The fan had been installed for the
purpose of removing the dust, but itself
became the cause Of disastrohs accident.
! Up to that time it had not been
known that aluminium dust could cx
plode but apparently no kind of dust
is safe. Among recent accidents Of the
kind was an explosion of fish meal.
Flour, sugar, cornmeal and spices
(such as %cinnamon) readily explode
under such conditions. G.. when sus-

Wasting by Fire

TINE silky fiber derived from certain
1 rocks which we call asbestos was
familiar to the ancient Greeks and Ro-
mans, and was commonly used by them
to make fireproof yarn, fireproof rope
and freproof cloth.
These are the uses to which asbestos
is chiefly put at the present time. 1t
is only,in the production of thread from
this material that we have much i'm
provcA upon the ancients. 1t is now
spun ~ fine that a pound Of asbestos
will yield two thirds Of a mile of thread.
To wash a piece OF asbestos cloth
one has only to put it into fire. That
cleans it.

International Blind staEEers.
Senator Reed denounced the Demo-
cratic convention at San Francisco as
"a convention afflicted with interna-
tional blind staggrs.'
Without direct personal reference
to any one. the senator declared there
was little difference between the doc
trine OF the divine right Of kings and
the modern doctrine that a man elect
ed TO office becomes thereby a leader,
and that all who differ with him are
communicated and outcast"
Robert Lansing, exsecretary Of
state, he described as the only man
whom the president took 10 France
with him who knew anything about
international law and about the only
one who had ordinary common sense"
and he asserted that Lansing's re-
moval from office was the result OF
his insistence upon warning the peo-
pie Of the true meaning Of this league
with treason, this covenant Of na-
tional death"
Senator Reed declared that this in
formation in regard 70 what the
