How Quiipowilcr Ih Mado.
In an Intcresting und Instructivo ar
ticlo in July St. JVicholas on punpow
dcr, wo lenrn from Lleutouant John M.
Ellicott that gunpowdor stoadlly do
veloped as rneclmnlcalsklll constructed
bottcr and bettor wonpons ln whlch to
uao lt, untll lo-day it has reached a por
fectlon of manufacture for various pur
poscs which oliows its cffccts to bo fore
told in any woapon, oven to tho timo
it takcs a grain to burn, and to tho dis
tanco it will drivo a shot.
Itogor Bacon's gunpowdor was mado
of saltpetcr, sulphur and charcoal.
Saltpotor is chemically callcd nitro, and
is a natural product, found bedded in
tho oarth iu dlfferont parts of tho world,
chiefly in India and China.
Sulphur, too, ls found in a natural
stato In many volcanlc countries, liko
Sicily, whilo, as is woll known, charcoal
is mado from wood or woody substanccs
by heating thcm almost to a burnlng
hoat in an air-tight vossel, thus driving
off overything in thcm but carbon.
Saltpoter, sulphur and charcoal aro
still tho only ingredionts of tho gun
powder in common uso, although a now
gunpowder, mado of difforent materials,
is undergoiug succeesful oxporimont.
A mixturo of saltpoter and charcoal
alono would form an explosivo, and
sulphur is added chiefly to mako it
plastic, or capablo of being preeBed into
cakcs and shapes. All throo ingredients
havo to be purifled by tho most careful
chomical skill before they are combined.
Then an exact proportion of oach has
to bo measured out, occording to tho
kind of powder to bo mado.
For tho gunpowder gcnerally uaed,
you would Dnd in overy hundred
pounds, if you could separato the -ingredionts,
soventy-flvo pounds of salt
poter, flfteen pounds of charcoal, and
ton pounds of sulphur; but it would bo
almost impossible to separato tho in
gredients, for thoy aro not merely
mixed togethor as you might mix pep
per and salt, but they aro ground, and
rolled, and stirrcd, and pressed to
gether by special machlnes, until they
aro almost sufllciently unitetl to form a
singlo newsubstance.
This mixing process is called "trit
uration," aud the powdor is thus mado
into tho form of big, flat cakes, called
press-cake, and then brokon up, and
screened into grains of special stees, or
ground to tho Ono powder used for
shot-guns and rovolvers.
Tho large-groined powders are still
further stirrcd togethor, until tho
grains becorae highly glazed, and theso
are called cnnnon powders. A lightcd
match may bo held to a grain of can
non powder and it will be found almost
impossible to sst it on flro, but onco ig
nited, lt llashes off very suddenly and
violently. Exchange.
Killcd by aKIfrht Moth.
Ono of tho most mysterious murdor
cases on record was lliat of tbc Prin
cess Naravella, a lovely woman who
mot with a violont death in Naples.
Sho was found in her own room, ono
ovcniug, lying dead on her bed, with
the mark of a tiny bullet holo iu tho
region of tho heart.
It wns clear that no strangcr had
flred tho shot, sinco tho bcdroom was
siluated on tho third lloor, and no one
had recontly entered tho gates of tho
pnlaco; therefore, in accordauco with
tho policy uauully observed in such
cases, the husband of tho dead woman
was arrested, on a chargo of havlng
murdered his wifo with tho littlo pistol
which lay by her sido on a tablo, and
ono cbamber of which was empty,
color being lent to tho accusation by
tho fact that ho was uotoriously jealous.
His trial rcsulted in acquittal, partly
in consequonce of on oxtraordlnary
pieco of testimony which was produced
in court by ono of tho polico ofllcials.
Tho etory ho related was this.
Two days aftor tho murdcr, on the
removal of tho seals from tho doors of
tho bedroom, ho bad made a careful in
vestigation of tho opartmont, and had
found on tho lloor, by the bcdsldo, ono
of thoso enormous night moths, tho
bodies of which aro almost as thick as
a mau's thumb, and wbich abound 5n
Italy.
Tho moth was badly singed, and
somo of tho powdor of its wings was
apparontly on tho ebooy antf gold
stock and trigger of tho littlo rovolver
which had beon found on tbo tablo,
and wlth which tho shooting had beon
dono,
Tho ofllcial called tho attontion of
tho judgcs and jur.y to tho phcnomcnal
facility with which tho trigger yiolded,
and advauced tho oxtraordlnary argu
ment that tho princess had been killcd
through tho ageucy of tho night moth,
which, ho allugnd, must havo flown
into tho room, attracted by tho candlo
light, and, falliug with singed wings on
to tho tablo, had diacharged tho rovol
ver in tho violonco of his contorlions.
