When not com- pressed gun cotton is very light, as light as ordinary batting. A peculiar characteristic of tbls ter rible explosive Is that a brick of It when wet may be placed on a bed of hot coals, and as tbe moisture dries out the cotton will flake and burn quietly. If dry originally, however, the gun cot ton will explode wltb terrible force at about 320 degrees of beat. In general It Is tbe custom to ex plode gun cottou by detonation or an Intense shock Instead of by heat.
