STONE CANNON BALLS.
They Were Used In Iron Guns That
Were Held Together 5y Screws.

In these days OF hue projectile>
turned to lit exactly into cannon that
are as near mechanically perfect as
modern engineering can make them ii
is almost impossible to believe that at
one time the Turks carried on effective
warfare with wrought iron cannon
screwed together and firing stone can
non balls
Two of these cannon balls are to
be seen at the museum Of Hobart col
lege at Geneva, n. Y.
They were used by the Turks in
their war against the kingdom of
Cyprus, one of the numerous Christian
states which grew out Of the crusades
The stronghold Of the enemy was the
city of Famagusta. In 1911 the Turks
undertook to reduce its walls. For
nearly a year they hurled stone can
non balls against them. The stones
varied in weight from few pounds to
several hundred In order to conserve
the force Of the explosion the balls
were made to fit the bore Of the can
non as nearly as possible, and they
were fired with great deliberation.
This method, though crude. was at
that time regarded as the height Of
refinement in siege warfare The city
finally surrendered because its food
supply was cut off. 1t was found that
the stone projectiles had done great
damage to the walls and spread terror
among the defenders At the siege of
ConStantinoi e in 1853 stone shot were
also used by the Turks effectively. AS
late as 1907 W lien the Turks defended
ConStantinople against the British,
these guns were used effectively, as the
records Of the British war office show

The Word "Hiccough."

The spelling "hiccough is recent
being combination of the syllables

which is without either physiological
or genealogical basis. The pronuncia-
ton. with perhaps the rareSt excep
tons. is still that of the older form

"hickup." ''hickupSnickup." "hickhop,"
"hickcock," Hitchcock" and "hickett." :"

expressive Of the spasmodic sound pro
