Public Schools to Lead in the Celebration

tubllC Schools to Lead in the celebration.
October ~, the 4O0th anniversary of
the discovery of America, the Worlds
Columbian exposition grounds will be
dedicated in Chicago. But the day of
the finding of America ought to be cele-
brated everywhere in America More
over, all these local observances should
be linked together as parts of some
National system, in order that the full
significance of the day be brought out
1t is accordingly proposed that our most
representative American institution-the
public school-be the centre of each
local celebration. Both the Worlds con
gress commission of the Columbian ex-
position and the American superintend-
ents of education have requested that the
public schools of each city and town
lead in the local celebration. These two
bodies have also appointed joint e1ecu
tive committee to direct the movement
and to prepare uniform and fitting pro
gramme. The public schools of NorthCaro
lima will no doubt enter heartily into th'
spirit of this celebration.

ADJUSTABLE DYNAMITE PRoJECr1LEs
They Are Successfully Tested Before
Board of Examining Experts.

They Are Successfully Tested Before a
Board of Examining Experts.
PERRYvILLE, n. Y, June 20-[SpeciaL 1.-The
official test before the United States Board
OF Ordnance and Fertilization of the Justin
dynamite projectile began this morning.
There were present besides tho inventor,
Dr. Joel G. Justin, of Syracuse, nearly
all the stockholders. The members of the
board present were: General Henry
l.. Abbott, of the engineering CORPS,
Colonel Henry. w. Clossen, Major
Clifton, General B. P. Cutcheon,
CaptAin c. C. Morrison, and Colonel C. G.
Bartlett. The projectile has been improved
since the former tests, and is now considered
perfect There will be l6 tests, six frorn
5-inch Parrott rifle and II from a 9-inch
Blakely.
At exactly 10 o'clock the first shell was
discharged from the Pa1rott. six pounds Of
powder were used. The shell weighed 5815
pounds and contained 81 pounds of ex-
plosive gelatine. It was 5A-inch caliDer,
and went to "a rock target. Dr. Justin's idea
is that the explosive can be controlled by
the operator. The first shell he arranged so
that it went with terrible force into the
solid rock of the gorge, and the charge did
not explode. This is something never at
tempted. Ten minutes later he sent am
other shell, also from the Parrott. The fir
ing pin was adjusted and the fuse was ar
ranged co cause an explosion at the moment
of contact. There was a report as the she'll
left the gun. 1t was Immediately followed
by another as it exploded. Huge blocks OF
rocks tumbled to the bottom OF the ravine.
The members of the board seem pleased at
the result.
