"The Germans don't seem to have

happened, only this time one shell
came on board and did some damage

we thought the Huns must have some

same. The curve varies constantly,
becoming sleeper as the velocity of
the shell decreases and 1t begins to
be affected more and more by gravity.
The Mathematics of It.
"Now, what the Germans had done
was this. They erected a series Of
gauze screens-at least three between
US and battery which we were &C.
customed to shell. To hit the target
our shells must pass through these
screens. Electrical timing devices indi-
Gated the length Of time the projectile
required to travel between the screens,
and of course the distance was already
known.
This gave the Germans the velocity
Of the shell when 1t reached the screen.
The holes 1t made in the screens gave
them three or more points in the curve.
This enabled them to plot section OF
the curve. They could tell from the
explosion the size Of the shell approx
mately. This would enable them to
know the velocity with which the shell
would leave the gun.
"With these elements-a section Of
the trajectory, the velocity Of the shell
when 1t reached the screens and q
knowledge of the initial velocity of q
certain sized shell-they had more than
enough data to figure out exactly
where the projectile came from.
I'm fact, they could check themselves
on it, because they could plot the whole
curve from the section they had with
their knowledge Of the velocity, and
they could figure the straight distance
from the velocity of the shell when 1t
reached the screens and the velocity
they knew 1t must have when It left
the muzzle Of the cannon on board the
monitor.
"The best proof that the system
worked was the fact that, no matter
where we moved to, their shots strad-
died us, and besides the one which
came on board us one Of our other
ships got shell in the boiler ROOM"
Well, somebody's always taking the
joy out Of life, as we say in America.
After mess we left the monitor, the
little damage which had been done the

been repaired. Before we went down
over the rim of the horizon we saw

Strong Objection to Ordinance Keep

Manning, Jan. 23.-An ordinance
forbidding the keeping Of hogs with
in the corporate limits Of the town
or Manning. recently adopted at the
instance of the local board of health,
is just now attracting strong oppo-
sition from many citizens Of the town.
Numerously signed petitions have re-
Gently been presented to the council
asking for the repeal Of the ordi-
nance or for such amendments as will
permit the keeping of hogs, under
proper restrictions. The council re-
ferrcd these petitions to the board of
health for consideration and further
recommendations, and will set an
early date for special hearing of
the petitioners.
Yesterday the board of health had
meeting and after deliberation de-
cided to stand by their original recon-
mendation and asked to have a hear
ing by the council when the question
comes up for formal considera ton,
and they further asked that DR.. Jas.
A. Hayne, Of the State board of
health, be given a hearing at that
time, and to this end the local board
will send request to DR.. Hayne to
come down and join the local board
in defending its position. There is no
indication now when the matter will
come up for consideration, but there
is no doubt that there will be vigor-
Gus contention both for and against
the ordinance.
