have yet to be answered by the Krupp
advocates, but there Is no doubt that
the dynamite gun is a terrible weapon
ana That 1t may cause a complete
revolution in modern warfare.
OBJECTIONS RAISED.
The great objection raised by the
opponents OF the dynamite gun is that
though 1t may be possible to fire dyna-
mite shells accurately from q pneu-
matte gun stationed on an immoveable
platform while aiming at a stationary
object, it is not 10 be concluded there
from that the same gun would be as
effective when discharged from a o
ing platform at a moving object-such
as a mau-of- war under steam, for
instance.
To this the dynamite gun people
reply that they expect to secure far
greater accuracy of fire-under all con-
ditions-than eau be obtained by any
powder gun.
Again, it is claimed that the range
tables tor the pneumatic guns on board
the Vesuvius are a distinct feature of
the new weapon and comparatively
unknown to any other system OF
gunnery.
u jill AM III NEW SlolEuio'
In firing ordinary naval guns the
distance of the object aimed at is OBJ
tanned by the use of a sextant II a
table OF distances arranged by angles.
The angle is taken from one of the
stops and is passed to the officers in
command of the batteries. who then
order the requisite elevation in yards.
But these are only approximate ranges
generally in hundreds of yards, given
as the ship varies her position from the
target.
The Grange finder" of the dynamite
gun annOt be here explained in detail,
but, in brief, it may be said that the
officer who controls the firing of the
guns takes his position at the breech
of the pieces, which point is situated in
the hold of the dynamite war vessel.
Though this officer cannot openly
see the object at which he fires two
other officers stationed in the "fghling
tower,n or protected deck house, keep
the target well in view, and by means
OF an indicator or reflector below decks
also enable the gunnery officers at the
breech of the dynamite guns to calcu-
late by a ''pointer" moving over q
delicately constructed scale the exact
amount OF air pressure necessary to
hurl the dynamite projectile on the
deck ofthe enemy.
AIMING BY ''LUBBER's MARK"
The dynamite guns. being placed in
a permanent position al an angle of
eighteen degrees with the deck, are in
a line with the enemy when the bow
or ''lubber's mark" of the new vessel
of war is bearing directly upon the
enemy. The moment this mark and
the target are in a straight line the
"firing officer" Is signalled, and the
exact pressure necessary tor the dis
lance estimated being applied, three
shells, charged with 600 pounds of
dynamite each, may be sent on their
deadly errand. To Lieutenant Brad
ley A. Fiske, U. S. N, is due the
credit of devisiDg this method of OBJ.

ANCIENT IRELAND.
WOODEN and Linen Fabrics and
Metal Work In the Good
Old DAYS.

Poets and rhetoricians have in their
usual free and easy way exaggerated
the material prosperity of ancient Ire
land, says Commissioner Mccarthy In
Harper's Magazine. Much of the splen-
dor attributed to Celtic kings and bish-
ops and bards fades under the cold
light of historical research. But his
very research has put beyond all doubt
that beneath the eXaggeraliOns of
rhetoric aud song there lay a solid sub
stratum of truth. Thus the publica-
lion by II parliamentary commission of
the immense previously almost unex-
plOred mass OF legal institutes known
as the "Brehon Laws" has verified the
fact that at a time when BritOns were
almost naked savages the Irish kelts
were clad in wOolens and linens of their
W manufacture. The Brehon laws
abound with references o only to
wooden and linen goods, but to card
ing, weaving, dyeing and the other
processes of their manufacture. Again,
in the remarkable metrical account OF
the rights of the monarchs of Ireland
and the provincial kings, attributed to
a contemporary of st. Patrick, and
known as the "Book OF Rights" we
find that tribute was paid to a large
extent in cloaks, tunics, mantles and
other articles of wooden and linen
manufacture, some white, some brown,
some trimmed with purple, some with
fur, and some with gold. We can see
for ourselves something of what was
done in the more durable materials.
Textile fabrics, except of the coarsest
kind, perish in far less time than 1900
years. But metal work, if good in
material and design, survives. Ac-
cOrdingly we have abundant specimens
of such work come down to us from
the Kettle period. Many of these are
rough, but many are rich material good
in design, and is exquistely skilliul in
workmanship. Some were found deep
below the surface of our bOgs, where
probably they we're dropped in flight,
and got gradually covered with peat
in the slow lapse of centuries. Others
were found in stone chambers made for
their reception, and forgotten for more
than 1000 years. Vast quantities OF
the gold-wOrk were consigned to the
crucib!e. Some goldsmiths estimate
that they purchased and melted down
as much as $4,000 worth of ancient
Kettle gold -work found from time to
time in Ireland. But fortunately much
also has been preserved There is quite
a magnificent collection of works in
gold, silver and bronze III the museum
OF the Royal Irish Academy in Dub
lin. Beside these there are many fine
specimens in Trinity College, Dublin,
and in the British Museum, London.

THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE.
From the jefferson City Tribune.

From the Jefferson City Tribune
At the close of business last night
the department of state rounded up the
busiest and most profitable mouth ever
known in the history of that active de-
partment of the state government. Capt.
Lesueur went into Office in the very
midst OF the most complicated period,
when a revising session of the general
assembly had bat just convened aud
were calling upon the secretary of
state, not only for all sorts OF informa-
ton which his office alone could give,
bnt also for the outfits of stationery re-
quired by every standing committee of
the legislature. The turmoil incident
to the incoming ad ministraii0n caused
the mail tn accumulate SD that when
Cap Lesueur opened the department
for business on The morning of January
Is, with almost an entirely new com
plement of clerks, he found n great
task before him. But 80 carefully and
steadily has the work progressed that
" hen the department closed its months
work there was not a letter unanswer-
ed and scarcely any unfinished business
remaining. The task was only accom-
| plished by ten hours a-day of persist
ent work.
During tho month of January the
receipts of the state department from
all sources amounted tn $3.50. There
were seventy.six certificates of incOr-
poration issued, of which forty nine
were TO manufacturing and business
companies. fourteen to benevolent, re-
iigious and scientific associations, five
~ hniliiaF aud lno.. nGsnntofin.to En,,
TO banks, two to railways, II TO an
insurance company, and one to a tele
graph company. AT this rrte the re-
ceipts of the department will exceed
$50 900 this year, and the rapid growth
OF the state warrants the belief that
this department will hereafter have an
enormous amount of business before IL,
especially as the revised statutes are to
be shortly compiled, published and dis
iributed under its supervision. The
section devoted to the issuance of GER
hficates of incorporation has developed
into Il busy court of inquiry, requiring
the constant attention of two, and
sometimes three, clerks who under the
watchful eye of Secretary Lesueur, pass
npOn the kDottiest points of law, in.
volving sometimes millions of dollars.
In addition to the business already
MENTIONED, there were issued eighty
five commissions to notaries public,
commissions to all the new state OFF,
cials, and a mass of miscellaneous bust
ness properly coming under the head
of state secrets. Very few people know
or appreciate the character and extent
OF the busy work OF the state depart
m9ut,
