came into sight, but before it got near

range guns, he would touch a match to
the floating oil. In other words, he
would set the ocean on fire. Lest any
one should fancy that it might be difficult

quent intervals along the line. The men,
bers of the Chicago fire department, who
on several occasions before the opening
of the drainage canal were called on to
put out the river, will doubtless give the
scheme their hearty Endorsement. While
the oil is burning number OF balloons
might be sent up to point high above
the smoke and flames, from which they
could drop their bombs upon the doomed
vessels of the enemy and make his dis
comfture complete.
Many inventors have devoted more at
tention to providing improved shells for
cannon and field guns thnn to my other
one point. One man wants to fill them
with chloroform and 20 stupefy a whole
regiment at time. Another thinks 1t
would be an awe inspiring plnn to fill
shells with inflammable oil, so that when
it burst torrent Of flames would con-
sumo everything within reach. Snuff,
which would set the enemy to sneezinG
and so render him harmless; red pepper.
which would have a similar but even
more violent effect; chemical which
would develop great clouds Of dense
smoke; prussc acid, which Is the deadli-
est poison known, and gasoline, the ex-
plosive powers of which are painfully IA
miliar to many housewives, are among
the materials suggested ms filling for
shells. Not one of these startling sug-
gesrions seems to have met with favor al
the hands OF the board, though ridicule is
admitted to be one of the most deadly OF
weapons, and certainly nothing could DC
more ridiculous, for instance, than n
, whole army sneezing violently from the
combined effect OF rapid discharge OF
snuff and red pepper shells.
Most terrible of all is the idea of a man
who has scheme FOR bottling lightning
This terrifying product he would use II
lOading shells, which he calls lightning

enemy, particularly IL accompanied by
stage thunder, can hardly be imagined.
As u means of further improving thu

The board Of review is a formal and
