POWER I'M OUR POWDER.
A Shot From n IL Inch Rifle Sufficient
to Lift a BattIeship Eight Feet.

Velocity and pressure, 'iexplained
the powder mill superintendent, "are
the two main requisites in proving pow
der. The government is very specific in
it's contracts. It demands that when
fired under service conditions in the gun
for which it is intended powder must
give TO the projectile muZZle velocity
of at least certain number Of feet per
second without producing a pressure of
more than a certain number of tons to
the square inch. For modern guns the
velocity required varies from 1900 to
2, 800 feet IN a second, and the pressure
is not allowed TO exceed 10 tons to the
square inch. In some of our guns of the
present day the amount of energy stored
up in the powder charge is so tremen-
dous as TO be almost incredible. The
limit of energy upon the projectile can
not be estimated, so vast are the posi-
bilities
For example, l may cite the Ore
CONS Ii inch rifles. Five hundred and
fifty pounds of powder III these guns
impart to an /, 100 pound shot velocity
of 2, 100 feet per second, and the energy
of the projectile is nearly 81, 900 foot
tons. This power is sufficient TO lift
such vessel as the Oregon eight feet
out of the water
"Those screens between the cannon
and the breastworks are electric chrnno-
graphs 100 feet apart from each other
and the cannon, and they register the
time of the projectile's flight with abso-
lutte accuracy.
And absolute accuracy is-what:'

have almost forgotten such things as

are as keenly interested in the COM

been born and bred in the heart of
the 4th ward. 1t is now generally

by right of population it should at

SERVANTS EXCUSES.
One Woman Who Was Clever Enough
to Circumyent Them.


We have heard the story of the Cana
dian mistress who. with seven servants
in her house, was obliged TO go to the
garden and pick berries for the table.
Each of the servants declined the task
with the stereotyped excuse, 1T amt
my place to pick berries" Ord, in his
History Of Cleveland" relates an an
ecdote of Margaret Wharton, who,
while accepting her servants excuse.
yet made them do her will.
In one of her visits TO Scarborough
Mrs. Wharton, with her usual economy,
had family pie for dinner, which she
directed the footman TO convey to the
bakehouse This the man declined to
do as not belonging TO his place, or
rather, as derogatOry to his conse-
quence. The lady then moved the ques-
tiOn TO the cOachman, but found still
stronger objection.
To save the pride of both Mrs.
Wharton resolved TO take the pie to the
shop herself. She ordered one man to
harness and bring out the horses and
the other to mount and ride behind, and
thus the errand was done with all honor
and ceremony. Then in due time the
coachman was ordered to put to a sec
ond time and the fOotman TO mount be-
hind, and Mrs. Wharton brought back
the pie in the same dignified state.
Now" said the lady to the coach
man, You have kept your place, which
is to drive, and you yours, " to the foot
man, (which is to wait, and l mine,
which is to have my pie for dinner"
