The Many Kinds of ProjectiIes Used

We have now armor-piercing pro
jectiles, common forged and cast stee
projectiles, cast-iron projectiles, shrap
mel, and so on, in endless variety. Al
the work the gun, whether ashore OF
sfoat, will have to do can be pretty
clearly predicted, it would appear a.
though one, or at most two, kinds OF
projectiles were enough. These two
would naturally have, the one . high
penetrative power, and the other large
capacity for internal charge, giving great
destructive power when the shell is
burst. No one who has not examined
carefully the effect of bursting shell In
a closed space can have an idea Of Its de-
struotiveness. A small 8-pounder shell,
of about 2 IA inch diameter, containing
8 or ounces Of powder, burst in an
ordinary room and breaking into 20 or
80 fragments, would probably destroy
everything In the room.-Scientific
