VEsUVlUs DIDN'T FIRE DYNAMITE.
None OF the So-Caiied Dynamite Cr7isers
or GunsD oer, Says an Expcrt.

'Oneo OF the ~commonest errors." said
o man who makes explosive shells for
the big guns used by the army and,
navy, lis the description OF any gun
as a dynamite gun. Two-tbirds ofthe
people believe that tie so-called dvna-
mite guns really hurl dynamite. The
Nesuvius, you know, is called a dvna-
mite cruiser. AS matter Of fact, [
can state that there never was a pound
Of dynamite on the Eesuvius, aud no
dynamite guns, so-called, has ever
fired any dynamite. Dynamite shells,
SO called. are never loaded with dvna-
mite. Dynamite never has been. and
I don't believe il eyer Will be. used in
time Of war, because it is not q safe
explosive TO handle. Itwcnldbemore
dangerous 10 the side using it than il
would be 70 the enemy. Another rea-
Sol II viii never be use! is tat there
ere other explosives that are more
powerful than dynamite ttat can be
handled with safety. Gunc0tton, for
