BOMBS THAT DIVE.
Marine Darts Of the Vesuvims Which

| Marine Darts OF the vesuvius Which
Play Leap Frog for 500 Feet.
In the recent aiming trials on the
Vesuvius some of the darts after
striking close below the target Owed
under it for forty feet, then jumped
clear Of the waves; then dived sRain,
playing the game of marine leap. frog

ing for q mile and a half, rarely
missed the object aimed At By more
than few feet, and if vessel had
been in the targets place it would
assuredly have been blown to atoms.
A new exploding device was used at
these trials, and it did not work we'll;
but as they are fuses which never fall,
the system of throwing guncotton, or
dynamite or gunpowder oy compressed
air is . perfect success, even in a high
cross wind. What amount of DAMAGE
will be done to vessel when one of
the 500 pound charges is exploded on
her deck it is impossible to state since
it oever has yet occurred; bus it is
reasonable to.suppose, from the effect
on rocks and earth in land trials. that
the ship must be t,ro asunder and
sunk on the instant.
1t will not always be the object of
the air gunners, however, to destroy
vessel completely, for it is often
more desirable to disable vessel and
capture the crew. To test this posli>

very interesting, for the object will be
to bit as near as possible without
