Steacy was asked as to the habits of the jhorse. In commenting on the ani- ma] Capt. Steacy said: "Horse No. {21 called Carrot is a small black horse standing fifteen hands high. It | is quiet, easily groomed and is con- sidered an' excellent horse for in structional purposes, the reason be- [ing that it had a very rough action { which naturally teaches a man the | knee grip so essential for a good rid- jer. It has no bad hahits except that it is inclined to be a slug and TAIN behind in the ride." | Capt. T. D. J.

When Dry Explosive May Be Burned In the Hand Without Harm. If some one should place a wad of guncotton on the palm of your hand and threaten to touch it off with a lighted match you would be frighten- ed. Yet you need not be, for, al- though guncotton is one of the most powerful of ordinary explosives, it would not hurt you. When dry guncotton is exposed to the air it does not explod¢ when ig- nited, but burns with great rapidity. So rapidly does the burning take place that if a loose wad of the ma~ terial be held in the band and touch- ed with fire there is a sudden flash, and an instant later not a trace of smoke or a mark on the hand re- of a gun. When dry, however, guncotton can be made to explode with great vio- lence by being struck sharply bee as such an explosion is called, is burning. It seems tp consist in the instantaneous disintegration of the molecules of the exploding substange. it is as though all the bricks in a great building were in a fraction of a second to be scattered about the city. When moistened sufficiently with water guncotton is not affected either by fire or blows. In this state it can be compressed, mashed to a pulp or worked into various shapes without danger. wet guncotton detonate. On this account wet guncotton has been made use of in blasting. Guncotton is a mixture of various nitrates formed when clean dry cot- ton is treated with strong nitric acid (and, for most ps with sul- phuric acid also). If the product has say, if little nitric acid be used in the making--it may be partially dissolv- ed by certain esters, such as acetone, ethylacetate or a mixture of ether and alcohol. particularly well fitted to use in a gun on account of the saving of space.

The main feature of the evening was the Fa- mous Players picture of George Faw- cett, supported by an all-star com- { pany, in "The Majesty of the Law." § The other pictures were a three-reel J Universal photo-play featuring Cleo Madison, "The Faith of Her Fath- ers," a comedy picture, "When He Proposed," and. the Pathe News {showing some interesting scenes of the war. The vaudeville part of the entér- tainment was good.

The ef- forts to thwart this contemplated at- | tack are conducted along novel lines, {and one or the other of the contend- {ing players in the desperately risky game is momentarily almost within reach of his desired goal, and dra- matic climaxes of unusual strength are developed.
