TuE feat Of Herr Holtnm, "the Prus-
sian Hercules" who is astonishing the
British by catching ball fired from
cannon, Is said TO be neither novel nor
difficult. The fact Is that about two
ounces Of powder are placed In the gun,
then the ball is remained home, then the
balance of the charge is put in. When
the gun Is fired oil the powder is ignited,
and the flash, smoke, and report are or.
thodoX, but the ball receives propulsion
only from the small quantity of powder
behind II, and is thrown but few feet.
