"I've been here nearly half an hour waiting for it to do something; but it won't." Mr. Carr peered wisely into the acetylenes, looked carefully under the hood, examined the upholstery.

Yes, there were other weaponsthe oxy-acetylene torchyes, the machine-gun.

One tube contained oxygen, the other acetylene gas.

Once the valves were turned, the acetylene gas forced out by a pressure of a thousand pounds and united with oxygen as an accelerator would produce a shooting flame that burned metals as if they were sun-dried pulp.

Calcium carbide, employed in the production of acetylene gas, either for the purposes of artificial illumination, or for the manufacture of ethyl alcohol, is produced by subjecting a mixture of carbon and lime to the prolonged action of heat in an electric furnace.

And even his acetylene headlight had only to be attached, which task took but a short time.

Perhaps some movement of the horses or else the bright light of the acetylene headlight falling on his face aroused the man, for he sat up as Frank was about passing.

It was pitch dark save for the great shaft of light down the snowy road cast by the acetylene lamps.

And Flammeolus, two lamps likewisebut acetylene!

They got water, though finding it meant further delay, and after all, the acetylene lamps obstinately refused to shine.

and when I made the mistake of asking what they had been doing in my room at that hour I was told (as though it were the most natural thing in the world) that they were the municipal lamp-lighters of Marrakech, whose duty it is to refill every morning the two hundred acetylene lamps lighting the palace of the Resident General.

They took three big acetylene headlights from motor cars, and connected them up.

From this latter has been gotten a hydrocarbon, C{8}H{14}, conylene, homologous with acetylene, C{2}H{2}.

"Now for the oxy-acetylene blowpipe," cried Kennedy as he advanced toward the steel door.

Still they gave a starting-point for the flame of the high-pressure acetylene torch.

The force of the blast as the compressed oxygen and acetylene were expelled carried a fine spray and the disintegrated metal visibly before it.

"Acetylene, as you may know," he hastily explained, never pausing for a moment in his work, "is composed of carbon and hydrogen.

Thus I can carry acetylene safely, for it is dissolved, and the possibility of explosion is minimized.

This mixing chamber by which I am holding the torch, where the oxygen and acetylene mix, is also designed in such a way as to prevent a flash-back.

With a quick motion Kennedy turned off the acetylene and oxygen.

Thereupon the bicyclist, with new strength returning and devoutly blessing his acetylene lamp, pedaled his way back to civilization.
