Try.

Out in q certain Western fort, it is said
the major conceived The idea that artillery
m ght be used effectively in fighting with
the Indians, by dispensing with gun car
ringes, and fastening the cannon on the
backs ofmules. So he explained bis views
to the commandant, and it was determined
to try the experiment. a hc'viizer was
selected and strapped upon an ambulance
mule, with the muzzle pointing toward the
tail. When they had secured the gun,
and loaded it with a ball cartridge, they
led that calm and steadfast mule out on
the bluff, and set up q target in the middle
of the river to practice at. The rear of
the mule was turned toward the target,
and he was backed gently up to the edge
Of the bluff.
The officers stood around in a Semicircle,
while the major went up and inserted a
time-iuse in the touch-hole of the howitzer.
When the fuse was ready, the major lit
it and retired. In a minute or two the
hitherto unrufded mule heard the fixing
back there on his neck, and it made him
uneasy. He reached his head around to
ascertain what was going on. and as he did
so his body turned, and the howltzer began
to sweep around the horizon. The mule
at last became excited, and his curiosity
grew more and more intense, and in a SO.

as it they didn't care at all about the high

companions, were absolutely sacrificed.
However, the two vessels got visibly nearer,
All at once tt Thorneycroft put on
a last spurt, al struck the Bayonnaisa
with its whole force on the starboard bow.
The sea was terribly a~gitated, a deafening
report vas heard, and the Bayonnaise,
with q rent as big as a house, sank with
wonderful rapidity. AS for the Thorney-
croft, rebounding by the shock about Is
metres of, even before the explosion oc-
Cured, it went round and round for a few
moments, and then quietly resumed
the direction OF the squadron. No trace
remained of the Bayonnaise; it was
literally swallowed up by the sea. Unani-
nous pIaudits greeted the courageous
sailors as they joined the Admiral's
squadron to report on the mission they
had accomplished. The experiment was
repeated two days later, under the same
conditions, with another disabled ship,
and with the same success; and, in the
opinion of competent men, this is one OF
the most decisive torpedo experiments
which have yet been made. The little
torpedo boat, with its lateen sailyards,
resembles a smalI grey lizard, and is
scarcely discernible in the water. 1t is
evident that q single boat of this kind
would be unable to approach an enemy's
ship, unless at dusk, or when it would be
impossible to distinguish it at n distance,
for had such an attack been attempted in
broad daylight, the T~horueycroft would
manifestIy have been knocked to pieces by
the guns Of the threatened ship before it
could have carried out It's project. On
the other hand, it would be quite iln-
possible for one or even several ships 10
defend themselves against q Simultaneous
attack, say, by twenty or twenty-five
Thorneycrofts I; and, as these cost only q
Gftieth part of the expense ola man-oF war,
this experiment presents a formidable pro-
blem to State Nayils. What is certain is
that those who witnessed the affair were
greatly impressed by it, and are persuaded
that it is the starting-point Of an inevitable
transformation in naval tactics,

SUCCESSFUL TORPEDO
EXPERIMENT.
(Wechly Timcs.)

Some very interesting experiments were
made a few days ago at Cherbourg with
the little submarine vessel called the
Thorneyc croft. 1t was the first occasion
of testing in French waters whether a
torpedo could be launched against a ship
10 full sail. Accordingly, Admiral Juarez,
who commands the Squadron, ordered a
disabled ship, the Bayonnaise, during q
rather rough sea, TO be towed by a steamer
belonging to the Navy. 4 second lieu
tenant, N. Lemoine, was sent for, and
Informed that he had been selected to
make the experiment of launching the
T~horneycroft against the Bayonnaise
while both were in full sail. He accepted
thr mission without Hesitation, picked out
two enginemen and a pilot, and went
down with them into the interior Of the
T~horueycroft, of which only a small part
was above water; this visible portion
beirg painted of a grryish colour, so as 10
be easily confused with the sea. The
torpedo was placed 50 as TO project from
the bow OF the vessel, at the extremity Of
which were two lateen s0ilyards about
three metres in lecgth. The towing
steamer then took up its position in front
of the squadron, and the Thorneycrofr
also assumed the position assigned for it,
a distance Of three or four marine miles
separating the torpedo and the %Bayonna;se.
On q signal being given, both were set in
motion. the steamer advancing 10 a straight
line, and the Thorneycroft ~obliquely, SO
as to take the Bayonnaise in flank. The
ateam-tug went at fourteen knots an hour,
going at full speed in order to escape the
Thorneycroft. The latter went at nine
teen knots 90 hour, a rate not attained by
any vessel in the squadron. The chase
lasted about al hour; the squadron keep
ing at the rear, so as to witness the opera
tions. At the end of that time the dis.
lance between the Thorneycroft and the
Bayonnaiso had sensibly diminished, and,
at q given moment, the former, in order to
come up with the latter at the requisite dis.
lance. had to slacken speed to eight knots
an hour. The whole squadron watched
this last phase of the struggle with breath.
less interest. and people asked themselves
whether the shock of the torpedo would not
infallibly destroy the little vessel which
bore it. 1t was feared that the lives of the
