to explode the dynamite charges in
loosening up the ore, they' have an
electric battery in the engine room
connecting a wire which goes down in
the mines and is attached-to the charge.
Also a small chord is placed in the
shaft which is touched by-some one in
the mine. This causes an alarm on a
little brass bell near the battery out

machine steps to the battery and s
touches a button which sends a spark
.simultaneously to every charge in the
mine, and the explosion of a hundred
charges is all done instantaneously.
