TERNAL DAMAGE CAUSED BY SUC- CESS!VE DISCHARGES. “Eresive Action of cay 1808 he Inflamed Causes the First Serious In- jury—How the Projectile Helps to Kill the Gun. The larger a cannon the more exten- ve are the injuries it receiyes wit ».ch successive discharge. All damage jone to a gun is internal. The separate ‘tion of the powder and the prv.ectile amages the piece every time it isaimed nd fired. Obviously the amount of the amwage depends upon the material and orkmanship of the gun. Men who inke big guns describe the harm done cir pets with many intricate and puz- ling terms of a scientific turn. In cne ase a gun is damaged because the part 1f the bore which coutains the powder « enlarged. This happens when the metal is compressed, and it is more dan- zgerous and more plainly seen if the zanners have been using wads between (hear explosive and their projectile. Then, again, cavities are produced by the melting away of a part of the metal by the heat of combustion of the charge. Cracks come from the tearing asunder if the particles of the metal! at the sur- face of the bore. When it is first made, a crack of this particular kind is barely perceptible, but it increases each time he gun is fired. Gradually it extends stely arene the side of tbe piece. The crack usu ally begins at the junction of the chamber with the bore, simply because, as guns now are, this part is no& so well. supported as the others. Edward S. Farrow, U. 8S. A., is an- thority on damage to guns, although, like all others who have studied the he does not agree with very miany authorities on all the points to consider in the life of acannon. He con- tends that furrowing or scoring produced by the erosive action of inflamed gases is the great disease which attaclzs the very big guns first. This particular in- jury is most apparent where the current of the gas is most rapid or at the inte- rior orifice of the vent and on the sur face of the bore, directly over the seat of the projectile. This scoring begins very early in the life of a very larg gun, but itis conceded that it does not become very important until the piece has been discharged considerably. Lieu- tenant Farrow describes this scoring as resembling the bark of an aged elm tree, the metal] being eaten away into irregu- lar furrows and ridges. In extreme cases, however, scoring has not killed the gun, although in some cases it has acted like a wedge and split the bore at the place attacked. Where the action of the projectile has ruined the gun the damage has been done around the projectile and in front of it. Tho elasticity of the metal and the crowding up of portions of it in front of the shot cause a rebounding process. The projectile, carried forward by the force of the charge, strikes against the upper part of the bore; then it is sent against the bottom and again bounds to the top, and soon until it emerges from the piece. The effect of this bounding motion is to raise and de- press the gun inits trunnion holes. Tho accuracy of fire is diminisbed, and, of course, the gun is unfit for service. Bronze guns are the worst sufferers in this way. Mortars—short and dumpy— are not afiected. To stop the bounding of the projectile runners wrap the shell in cloth or pa- * om plet question, wa ead Sold by Dr,S. W, Dodd and Geo. E.

This last process is con sidered the best and is done by reduc ing the diameter of the rtridge and adding to its length. Dubies etile injury is also cause a by furrows or made by rough shells or Small fragments, too, scratches case shot. break away very often from the shells and give the bore a grinding and cutting process, produc tive of gre at damage. Enla ment of the muzzleis another ) ’ serious duced by the proj tile. lnjury pr This is caused by a process which seems unavoidable. As the sbell leaves the piece it strikes against one porticn of the bore. Theresistance at the mouth being less than at any other point, the metal naturally yields, and the muzzle of the cannon is elongated in a vertical direction. Some men who ought to know say that 150 shets is the life of a very big gun—a 12 or 13 inch weapon, Others place the number of shots at 4' 500. As a matter of fact, it is all guesswork. The great Krupp gun shown at the World’s fair and conceded to be perfect —or supposed to be so—bas been dis- charged less than ten times, and it is now believed to have reached its limit. On the other hand, the big guns of tho American battleships have passed the time allotted them by wise men who know guns and apparently are as good as when tested. How soon they may yield, however, is not in the books. Lieutenant Farrow says that a very large gun should not be expected to stand more than 400 or 509 shots before it will be necessary to open a new vent, closing the old ane atits interior orifice. When the gun dies—bursts—the liner of fracture are photographed. Speci- mens of the metal are saved. Teets are made and conclusions drawn. And Un- ele Sam has figured out so many things in this same connection that his guns nowadays are conceded to be better than those of any other maker. They live longer than the wise ones say they should. —Chicago Times-Herald. or Everybody Warned. An Arizona rancher has posted the What iS LSS Worn ie “ 5 RR SASS Castoria is Pr. Samuc!
