Avvery sucopssful test of the Harden Star hand grenade fire extinguisher was made by Mr. R. H. Rose, the general agent at the Capitol, today. The architect of the Capitol, Mr. Clark, has been testing the various fire extinguishers, in compliance with the resolution of the House after the fire which occurred in the file room 8. few weeks ago. Tests of three or four different extinguishers which have been made ere pro- jounced by Mr. Clark to have been unsatisfao- Tory. “in the tset of the Harding Grenade, to- ay considerable interest was taken, and crowd of about a hundred people were present, including the architect of the Capitol and the chief clerk of the House.

The ketene on let- ters saturated with the fluid is not affected in the least, the ink not being even blurred, as water will sfonerally do, The exhibition was in every way a perfect success, and it is believed, after seeing the test, that it would be impossible for a fire to get be- yond control with the grenades at hand. The grenade is merely a little pot-bellied blue bottle, containing abouta pint of fluid, which is thrown at the fire like a ball, and, bursting, forms a gas which extinguishes the Hames in- stantly, ———— ‘The Grand and Petit Jurors.
