Under the action of the brilliant rays of the sun it becomes disintegrated, and falls away in crystals that are of various sizes and as long as the ice is thick. This crystallisation begins early, and makes the ice very dangerous and uncertain. The Indians call this slivering of the ice, candling. Sam had a narrow escape from drowning on account of this rapid transformation of the ice.
They did not realize, until they got into the elections of 1921, that their party had disintegrated under the stresses of war. A study of the origin, achievements, failures, downfall and consequences of Union government might be of interest, but it does not come into a survey of the life of Laurier.
Get another man for your crew from Morgan. I'll obtain this fellow's name and his address, if he has any, from the time-keeper, in case he passes in his checks." The foreman started away. The group before the door disintegrated and presently disappeared. Pat glanced at the sun, lighted a cigar, and asked: "Do we start a night shift?" "Yes; whenever you can bring in the men."
The escarpment was of disintegrated granite which rang beneath the hoofs of the animal. A pebble rolled to the edge of the bluff and dropped into the black pit below. From the gulf a challenging voice rose. "Hello, up there!" "It's me Joe," answered the rider. "Time you were gettin' here," growled the other, as yet only a voice in the darkness.
His physician knows the state of his material frame well enough, perhaps, that this or that organ is more or less impaired or disintegrated; but the patient has a sense that he can hold out so much longer, sometimes that he must and will live for a while, though by the logic of disease he ought to die without any delay.
A number of very young men looked around at him with hostile eyes; Malcourt's brows lifted a trifle; then he shot an ironical glance at Shiela and, as the circle about her disintegrated, sauntered up, bland, debonair, to accept his congé.
He shifted his shoulder pack. The brass valve-nipple by which the oxygen tank was filled.... He jammed a ragged fragment of tin in place. He pressed down fiercely. A blazing jet of fierce, scintillating, streaking sparks leaped up from the spot where the metal glowed brightly. A hollow in the metal plate appeared. The metal disintegrated in gushing flecks of light....
The copper bindings and the lock were still quite plainly to be seen, as the engineer held the torch close, though green and corroded with incredible age. One effort of Stern's powerful arms sufficed to tip the chest quite over. As it fell it burst. Down in a mass of pulverized, worm-eaten splinters it disintegrated.
The wheels were deformed with mud, the metal darkened by the smoke of explosion, the gray paint spotted with mossy dampness. In the free spaces in this file, in the parentheses opened between battery and regiment, were sandwiched crowds of civilians miserable groups driven on by the invasion, populations of entire towns that had disintegrated, following the army in its retreat.
Still, it was only a question of probability, though the probability was very great. Of course, you understand that those particles of woody fibre and starch granules were disintegrated snuff-grains."
