A six-inch gun was fired four times in twenty seconds, an eight-inch gun threo times in thirty soconds, A torpedo was driven satisfac- torily with eordite as a_powder. There was & search light which would keep its beam uvpon an object no mat- tor how violently the vossel rolled. A ten-inch thirty-ton gun, when it was fired, opened the breech screw by the recoil and wound up a spring, which. when released, would elose the breach agnin. A 4 7-10 fleld howitzer anchored itself after tho first discharge by driving u spade-shaped plate into the ground, after which its recoil was met by a jacket which surrounds it. A quick-fliring fleld gun, which anchors itself in a similar manuer, fired five rounds of shrapnel in fifty-threo seconds. A fifteen-pounder mountain howitzer could be taken to picces so that no part of it would weigh mora than 200 pounds, [t is serewed to- gether in five minutes. A G-inch gun, with light portable disappearing mount- ings for a siege train, could bo taken apart sothat no portion weighed more than three tons, ten hours being re- quired to mount it. A 6-inch naval gun fired five rounds in sixty-nine seconds, ecach time at a different range and target. A plate of speciul steel designed for a shield received rifle and Gatling gun fire_at 100 yards range without a single penetration, while the plate hitherto used was penetrated at every shot, the Gatling gun almost cutting it in two. e PERSONAL PARAGRAPIS, J.
