ICE is A POWERFUL. ExPLOSIv Il.
Old Shells Are to BE Rent Asunder
by It's Agency.
From The Philadelphia Times,

From the Philadelphia Times
The United States government has been
having dealings with the junkman. 1t
has sold an immense quantity OF old
projectiles in the Brooklyn Navy Yard to
the Penn Iron Works of Chester Pa, at
secondhand rates These projechles
range is diameter from eight to fifteen
inches. the latter being popular form
of cannon ball during the Civil War. In
the lot were GAG 15-inch shells, 1900 s-inch
shells and 5000 9-inch shells. They were
sold to the first buyer at one-half cent a
pound Under this arrangement the lat
ter pays about SO each for the larger
shells of 300 pounds and Sl.5O apiece for
the smallest. The projectiles are sold
merely because they occupy valuable
space. They had no value 20 the ordinary
junkman, because ne did not know how to
break them up and 1t is impossible to
melt them in one piece. The man who
bought them first broke several pile driv-
ers upon them and finally gave It up in
despair.
American inguenity, however, was equal
to the task of smashing them. A genius
employed in the Penn Iron Works hit upon
a novel way of doing it, He will arrange
the shells with the fuse holes upward and
wait for cold weather. When this comes
he will ill them with cold water This
will freeze When water freezes II ex-
pands with terrific force. The expansion
will smash the shells as n they were so
many walnuts. This peaceful method OF
exploding the shells resembles the turning
of a sword into pruning blade the pop
ular simile of the poets. IL may also
point the way to some ingenious inven-
tor who wishes to discover cheap APP
plication of force. Perhaps the ice power
machine will be developed as a result OF
the frigid explosions at the Penn Iron
Works.
When the government announced that 1t
was going to sell the shot the Grand Army
posts passed resolutions OF regret. They
declared that they should be reserved as
relics. Thereupon the Secretary of the
Navy offered 1000 s-inch shells to any
Grand Army men who would call for them
and move them to their post rooms. As
each shell weighs 150 pounds 1t is not an
easy thing 20 tote It around. The Secre>
tary waited for a long while and not a
single one of the shells was ever called
for He wrote again to the Grand Army
posts renewing his offer. but without any
result

The agent of the Ocean Steamship Com

Alexandria, which is now recognized as

Greece and Turkey still require five days
quarantine observation TO be undergone in
all cases. Doubtless at the expiration of a
period of forty days from the last reported

into line with the others and abolish quar-
antine observation against Egyptian ar
rivals in their ports.
