In preparing a charge for fuse ignition, the cap is crimped on to the end of a piece of mining fuseand this is inserted in the dynamite stick and securely fastened as previously described.

All the work is handled very tenderly and carefully,for while there is no danger of an accident unless fire is placed near the explosive, extreme caution isused at all times. To handle explosives one requires a nature serene, calm, and deliberate, whichMr. Kissam possesses to a marked degree, and never in all the years he has used the dynamite has hebecome the least bit careless, or ceased to regard it with respect. 12.
