I went away and almost forgot him until evening. When I readied Ins shop he was in good spirits and his lace wore a bland smile. "Put your hand on tho box,1' he said.

"You will not have to wait an hour,1 he continued as we sit d ?wn; "comhustioii has already commenced.1' So it. had There was a smell of burning cotton and healed wood, and within lilleun minutes tiller my arrival smoke pound Irotti the box ami was soon lollowed by il tine. 1 could take uis word that he had not meddled the uox, aim each nttlujet ol name leap:ii<l? 11*?Mil the box wuk a theory in itself to support his main tlu-oiy.

Within the next week we repeated the hhiuv experiment, with the same result, we produced spontaneous comlutsliou with oiled shavings alone and then with oiled tags. Since that time I have witnessed three lires in build iugs which originated Irom oiled rags. I'wo ol these WTc in paint Stores, where the rags had been thiown in a heap on tin* lloor, and the third was in a grocery store, where oil had been cpdied on a heap ol paper rags.

The old man looked into the building, then ictreluMy noted the windows, and as we walked on lie said : " They are building a bonlire there!" "I low V" I asked. "Every pane ol glass is in place, tinIcons shut tigln l\, and there is no cseapc lor the heat engendered itv the j rags," ha la-plied. "ll they do not j seen re veiiiilut ion the building will burn within a wet k!" Ilu was right. On the third night lifter that ?a close, sultry night?tlici Id house was discovered to be on lire. I The lii'Miien ga? In-red so proioplly that I the building was not greatly damaged, ' and tli?*y called it an incendiary lire. [).<l Spon w is on hand, and we mves. ligaled.

Within two hours the glass begun to grow dim, and in litre* hours tit*' rags were smoking.

We had indeed spontaneous combustion by shutting ofV ventilation.

A lew months since sonic oiled rags in the basement ol a Detroit picture store took lire on a hot Sunday niorni ig and called out the lii e depart iMi-nt, although one ol the basement windows was open lor \en* i tilation. 11 was through this window that the smoke poured and gave the lirst alarm. i At the Detroit Mouse ol Correction, in December, 1870, one ol the prison, j el's employed in the chair liuishing room, piled up a bundle ol oiled rags in a coiner as the hell rang lor close working hours, and r.t 8 o clock, only 1 two hours alter, the shop was lire.I by spoiitantnus combustion and several , thousand dollars damage done.
