length OF the boat, over the floor timbers, The

lhese buckets or paddles enter and leave the
water 10 vertical position, so that no power is
lost in lifting, or striking the water. The yhpel
is located in the middle of the boot neor tLa

According to reports by telegraph per-
manent peace is settled between France
and Germany. The French have to pay
indemnity in money and loss of territory,
but Paris is to be spared the humiliation
of triumphal entry by the conquerors
The terms are as reasonable as the French
could expect, but are humiliating enough
at the best. The loss of territory wounds
the national pride sorely, and there is nc
hope of day OF restitution against united
Germany.
