MODERN EXPLOSIVES. An Account of 11m Morn Important Sub stuncoa Kuw In Uso. Vow would imagine, ns thoy watch the cohI quietly glow and consume nwny in tho grate, that thcro aro pres ent all tho matorials necessary fur pro ducing an explosion; yot such is the , case, and it has boon found that tho ignition of coal-dust laden air is a not Infreq tout aotirco of disastrous explo sions in coal mines. What lias occurred with coal may occur with any combustible solid which is finely pulvorizod and sus pended in air, and in this manner the explosions of Hour which destroyed several flour mills in MinnoapolN in 1878 aro accounted for. Tlio explo sions of sawdust in tho Pullman cur shops and at Goldowsky's lurnituro factory, tho explosions of starch in a New York candy factory, of rico in rico-mills, and of dust in breweries and spiee-niills. aro among tho nianv examples of tho action of a similar cause; but perhaps tho most unusual case of this class of explosions was that of iinoly-powdored zinc, which occurred in 1851 at tho liothleheiu Znc Works. Tho modern high explosives are bodies which contain within their molecules tho elements necessary for ordinary combustion, whilo at tho same timo thoy aro more or less eudothcrmous; and tho best example, and perhaps tho most important of these is tho mercury fulminate. This substance was discovered by Howard in 1800. and was madj by dissolving mercury in strong nitrio acid, and pouring tho solution into alcohol. I:s discovery aroused tin; liveliest inter est, and it was hunt liute'y tested 13 liring in a musket, buJi though it im parted very little velocity to the projectile, and produced only a slight recoil and report, it burst tho barrel of tho pieco completely opon; and henci) it was relegated to the position of a choniical curiosity until roeallod fjrusoas a priming for percussion caps. Its adaptation to moilern uses began in lSG'X when Nobel discovered that by i he explosion of a few grains of this subita icj nitro-glycorino might bo detonated, and vs extended in 18G8, when Mr. E. O. Brown diseov ered tiiat not only could dry gun-cotton bo detonated by this means, but that if a small initial mass of dry gun-cotton was detonated in contact with a nuns of wot gun-cotton, tho latter would be also detonated, ovon though it were coinplotoly saturated witli water. Baron von I.oik, of Austria, took up the study of th.s material in 1853. and his ofTr s to perfect tho methods of manufacture anil to modorato tho vio lence of tho gun charges woro attend ed with such apparent success that a special battery of twelve-pounders was ojnstructcd for use with it, and tho position of tho explosive scorned as sured, until 18G5. when ids magazines blew up spontaneously, and tho ar ticle was interdicted by the govern ment. Gun-cotton constitutes tho best mili tary explosivo known, for, whilo its explosive force vastly exceeds that of gunpowder and approaches that of nitro-glycorino, it is tin safest and most stable cxplosire we possess, sinco It can bo stored and transported wot; nnd, whilo in this state, though it may bo detonated as described abovo, it can not bo exploded in anyothor way. As much has 2 00J pounds of wot compressed gun-cotton have boon placod in a iiorco' bonfire, wliero it lias gradually dried, layer by lavor. and been consumed without exploding. Besides, gun-cotton is tho only mil itary explosivo which can bo detonated with certainty when frozon. In call ing it a military explosive, I moan, of course, for use in torpodoos and for military mining, and not as a substi tute for gunpowder in guns; but it aiay be, and has bi'en, successfully used as a charge for shells lired from gunpowdor guns, both in this country and abroad. Shells containing as much as one hundred and ten pounds nf gun-cotton liavo been repeatedly tired in Germany. Tho most prominent rival of gun cotton for military tt-os, and tho bo-t explosivo for industrial purposes, is iiltro-glycerino and tho mixtures of which it forms a part. This substance was discovered by Subroro in 1817, kilo carrying out a serios of experi ments under l'.dottze. Its liquid form makes it tlillk-ult to store and trans port, and permits it to lind its way Into unexpected places, whero it constitutes a sourco of danger. C moderations such hs theso led Nobjl, about 1S67, to in vent dyiiamite. Tho name is now appliod to a groat variety of nitro glycerine mixtures, but thoy all consist of a porous solid absorbent which sucks up tho liquid nitro-glycerino by capillarity and holds it in its pores or Intorstices. Tho most important nitro-glycorino mixture is explosivo gelatino, also invented by No bo I. This is inado by boating nitro-glycorino on u water bath nnd adding to it from sovon to ton per cent, of soluble gun-cotton. Tho largest singlo charges ovor Urcd woro employed In tho blowing up of llalloti's Kof and Flood Itock. In tho latter, which occurred Oolobor 10. 1885, the chargo consisted of 240,399 pounds of raek-n-roek nnd 48 537 pounds of dyuandio No. 1. yot ho jilcoly was lit s enormous charge cal culated for tho work it w.;c to do, that boyond breaking down tho rock, los ing up an enormous body of water to r knight (emulated for tho tallest ji ) of ICO feet, a d generating an oarth vavu winch was observed ns far east as Cambridge, Mass., It produced no viiiblo elTuoU Bcribiiei'a Mai mine I It Is the truo secret of a hnppy life; to live so that by our example, our kind words und deeds, we may help someone lse. iiKi.rixo tiii: niaiiT sun:.
