FIREPROOF dCENERY.
it has came at last. For years peo-
ple have talked about the possibility
of making scenery fireprooff and thus
avoiding the remaining grave danger
of theatre fires. Heretofore the only
way has been to point the scenery
on asbestos instead of canvas, and the
cost of that was prohibitive. Now a
comedian has invented a liquid fire
proofing which is said to be effective.
it has been applied to the scenery in
all the Frobman houses in New York.
and it is reported that it will be used
in all the other theatres in that city.
under the urging of the Fire Depart-
ment. One of Mr. Frohmsn's mana-
gers says that the new compound has
been tested and that even paper will
not burn after it has been soaked in
this preparation.
Most of the danger of fires in the-
atres disappeared when electric light
ing was substituted for gas. Before
that change was made the number of
theatre fires increased yearly. Since
that time, although the number of
the theatres has increased greatly,
_ the number of tires has steadily fallen.
With electric lighting the chief danger
from the crossing of wseir,tsonininn
comes from imperfect insulation or
from the crossing of wires, due to
cheap work or carelessness. When a
tire starts in this way the scenery
and hangings of inflamahle material
are pretty sure to spread the blaze
rapidly. That is the reason for asbes-
tos curtains, for automatic skylights
over the stage and for the heavy
brick wall which separates the mod-
ern stage from the auditorium. With
this new preparation it is said to be
possible to treat not only scenery,
but the woodwork near the electric
wires and the hangings of the boxes.
The use of fireproof Scenery is no
reason for relaxing viiigance about
curtains, exits and the proper protec-
‘ tion of electric wires, but'with pre-
cautions in both directions theatres
will become the safest places of as-
semblage in the country. The danger
has come from panic rather than
from fire for a good many years now
The knowledge that the scenery will
not carry a flame if one starts will
tend to reassure nervous auditors and .
. thus to check the danger in the front
of the house, as well as to avoid that on
the stage.
AFRICAN LAKE DRIE8 UP.
The missionaries in British Central
Africa report that Lake Shirwa, long
represented on the maps as an oval-
shaped body of water, about thirty
miles long and ten to fifteen wide. to
the southeast of Lake Nyassa, has new
entirely disappeared.
it has been in process of drying up
for many years, but the last stages
of desiccation were remarkably rapid.
Nothing remains of the water surface
excepting a few small ponds where
the larger brooks flowed into the
lake.
The chain of islands among which
Mcbist and Tongwe were moot‘"prom-
lnent has become a range of hills,
and the canoes of the natives are
scattered over the lake bed.
The lake was discovered by Living-
stone ln 1859. it is noteworthy that
the first two of the lakes he revealed ‘
have now entirely disappeared.
' He found the placid water surface
of Ngaml covering an area of 300
square miles, now a ready plain, as
every vestige of the lake has vanish-
ed. in 1883 the natives on one shore“
of Lake Shirwa refused to ferry
Henry Drinnmond across the lake be- .
cause their enemies. the Assent lived
on the other side.
The disappearance of theseiskos is,
.due to thogradual desiccation which
' has been in progress for many years 4
over a large area of inner Africa;— .
