The miiRer Is simple enough to those w ho know, it Is attained by the com- L - .tlon of l',ie units of certain metals. In other words, the burning metals have each their characteristic color. Sodium (five* ill yellow Uume; cal cium. oiv.pfcc: Ii. fii'iu. r.een; stronti um. red; copper, fcieuir or blue, accord ing to elrcuuiehinceB. and so on. Other familiar metals. Iron, sleet and sine, give their tribute of colors. Iron filings give bright red and white sparks; cop per filings, a green tint; sine, a fine blue; steel filings aid cast iron borings, a brilliant tire with wavy radiations. Every one Is familiar with the color ed fires, but who would suppose that lycopodium, the delicate pollen of cer tain mosses, so fine that it is used to powder baby’s akin, furnishes a rose colered fire w ith a magnificent flame? These colored fires are called In tech nical language "fixed fires" and can slat of slow compositions that may be piled In little cooes on a flagstone and lighted lit the top. They burn slowly and there is no explosion. These com- positions are made in many colors. Roman candles belong to the fixed Ore chioa and are also called fnaees. We all know the straight, slender cyl inder or cartridge of the oidinury ro man caudle. It la packed as follows: First there Is put Iu It a charge of fine gunpowder, aud above this la placed a ‘star.’’ Tlieue Ytre simply balls of some apodal composition containing-metallic filing*, according to the color desired, made up with gum and aptrita of wine. Stare aud charges alternate until Ihe cylinder Is full. Each a thr hall Is dried aud dusted with gunpowder before packing. The first charge of gunpow der In exploding start* the stellar pro cession until one after another they blase Individually and vanish like fall ing stars. Next In order to tbe fixed fires como rotating fireworks—namely, wheels, fire wheels, bisecting wheels, plural wheels, caprice wheels and spiral wheels, all more or lees com i]px. The colon of fireworks are a matter of chemistry; tbe no less Important mo tions that display tbe beauty of theae colon to tbe beet advantage are a mat ter of mechanics.

Tbs outer end at the spiral ts primed with nn explosive material. When U ie lighted It "kicks," Just as a gun doee when tlie powder explodes, in the car tridge. and round and round files the wheel, sending out flashes and showers of colored or golden fire. Some of the most dasxtlug and glori ous effects In pyrotechnlcsl displays are produced by rotating fireworks, for there aeema to be no limit to tbe va riety of arrangement of cases and com positions to produce multiple motions and transformation scenes In color In tills elate of fireworks, A third class comprises the ascending fireworks. Skyrockets belong to this class and may be simple or very elab orate. according to their garniture of tiara, sparks, spirals, serpents or show- * of gold or silver rain. A skyrocket consists of two parts—a body and u head made separately and afterward attached to the body. The body is n straight cylinder-of heavy pelted paper closed at tbe lower end ao a* to leave ouly a very narrow open ing for the escape of tbe lira A ecu- tral hollow bore extends three-quarters of tbe way up tbe body, end all about this la packed tbe special explosive composition, the downward recoil of which send* the rocket resblug ewirt- ly upward, guided and balaured b,v tbe light stick of willow wood.
