NEw YORK, June PA Geneva special
says The ~ ssion of indirect claims has
been definitely settled IN a manner unex-

instructed to declare that the United States
did not seek m, ney awards for the indirect
losses, but only desired a settlement Of the
principle. Lord Tenterden, on the part of
bis government, called attention to the 7th
article of the treaty, which gives The Arbi-
traitors only authority to consider claims in
| relation to money awards, and submits that
| since the United States declared they did
not seek money award for these classes of
claims they could no, properly be enter
tsined by the court. The American counsel

diciSion bat it is known to have decided
against the admissibility of the indirect

MANAGEABLE BALLooN.-The advocates
of the possibility of utilizing the balloon
for the every day purposes of life have been
greatly encouraged by the result of series
of Experiments lately made in Paris by NJ.
Dupuy de LONE, and recently commune
Gated to the Academy of Sciences. This
gentleman Is an eminent French engineer,
and well acquainted with both the theory
and practice of his profession and his at
tention was especially called, during the
siege of Paris, to the importance of having
balloon which possessed some power of
Storage.
He has completed the first construction
according to his new plan, and made, as he
claims, entirely successful experiments
with it, The balloon is in the shape of an
enormous egg, the longer axis horizontal,
with an oblong car suspended from it. The
| total length Is llS feet, and its diameter at
| the point of greatest circumference 40 feet.
| The rudder by which the balloon is steered
| is a plain triangular surface, made of unvar-
| nished calico, and constructed so as to turn
easily on its forward extremity. The car
Is of wicker-work, containing n windass
for the screw, eight men to manage it, and
is capable Of carrying fourteen persons
The rudder is fixed to tho balloon itself,
and the screw is below II and Immediately
attached TO the car, and having only two
blades, so that when the ground is touched
they can be placed horizontally to escape
injury. The wlndlass which turns the
screw is worked by four to eight men. Tho
envelope of the balloon is composed o.
white silk.

TURKISH AnsrEMIousNEss.- Constanti-
nople is the most temperate capital of its
size in the world. Spending day after day
in the open air, wandering among the COM
mon folk, having at one time several peo-
pie in my employ, even in the biting air
before daylight | never found any Turk
drinking stronger beverage than coffee.
But that is nothing TO their great annual
fast. During the Ramadan, which lasts a
whole month, from sunrise TO sunset the
painting boatman, the heavy-laden porter
will touch nothing like food, not even to-
bacco, and no drink whatever and at sun
down will make up for this abstinence not
by drunken carouse, but by larger dish
of pilen and u longer smoke of Latakia.
To be sure, temperance is part OF the
Turks religion, but is ii not of ours
And that religion-an imposiure AS we
call it--has something very real in its wor-
sh p at four in the morning the year round,
its indifference to "iniidel gaze" the hearth
ness of all its observances, the severity of
its daily self-denials. Often have l found
the shop entirely open while the shopman
was at his prayers, and l have taken up the
goods to see if any body would demonstrate,
and laid them down again without any
body's interference. And how often have
l watched the thn-cad boatman kneeling
in prayer on the wet sand or in drilling
rain, "thc world forgetting, by the world
forgot r'-ReU. n. W. Holland ~ Lippin-

maintained while the temperature without
Is at zero. Another incidental use OF wa
ter from artesian wells is as motor, the
water coming out with n force sufficient TO
drive engines of many horse power.
In regard to the comparative depths to
which these wells are carried, II Is conced-
ed that the Chinese take the palm. Some
of their wells are SAID to be three thousand
feet deep. The deepest in Europe few
years ago land we believe stilD, was one in
Siesia 1890 feet. One in Columbus, Ohio,
is $500 feet. A well, which has become
somewhat famous, dug In st. Louis by a
private firm to supply sugar refinery, Is
two thousand one hundred and ninety-nine
feet deep. The famous one in Grenele is
one thousand seven hundred and ninety
two, and was about eight years in digging.
The discUuragements here were 80 great
that IL would have been abandoned after ii
had reached fifteen hundred feet, had ii not
been for the earnest appeals of Arago. Fir
teen hundred feet was about the depth to
which scientific men had predicted it must
go.
One most important use of artesian wells
is for purposes of irrigation in desert re-
gions. The French Government have bored
a large number of them in Algiers within
a few years, and the native Shieks, though
at first very skeptical, have more recently
been following its example. The work is
not difficult there, supplies of water being
found at so small a depth as one to two
hundred feet. Though not altogether pal
atable it answers well for irrigation and II
not unwholosome. \ traveller in the re
gion says "every we'll becomes the nucleus
of settlement proporlioned 10 the suppl,
of water, and several nomade tribes hav,
abandoned their wandering life, establish
ed themselves around the wells, and plant
ed many thousands of palm trees, beside
other perennial vegetables. If thu
supply Of water shall prove adequate 70
the indefinite extension of the system, it i
probably destined to produce greater ge
ographical transformation than has eve
been effected by any scheme of human i'm
provement."

AN INDIAN DELUaE.-Bombay papers
give an account of a terrific cyclone, which
occurred at Madras the first week in May,
sweeping inland as far as Vellore, destroy
ing one thousand lives, leaving two thou
sand people homeless, and three thousand
more destitute. The particulars are as fol-
lows:
at appears that rain commenced to fall
at Vellore on Wednesday, when two inches
were registered. All Wednesday night
and Thursday morning it poured incess-
antly, the water streaming out of the clouds
lin lunches as an imaginative eyewitness
expressed 1t. About o'clock 1t ceased
raining, but few minutes aitcrward the
whole town was startled by the sudden de-
scent of what seemed TO be II sea of water,
which swept like n storm-wave over the
whole cantonment, entering the very wind
ows of some of the houses, and driving the
occupants to the roofs or upper stories, COW
ering the cantonment road TO a depth of
FIVE feet, and carrying everything that
could not resist its force before it. Its APP
proach was so sudden that there was no
time to make preparations for escape.
confused roar Of rushing waters, accom-
panied by the crashing OF walls and trees
was he I'd, and the people looked ont of
their houses to behold their compounds
covered with water, and their very lives
threatened by the rapidly rising flood. The
cause of the food was soon surmised. 1t
was known that the flood waters had come
from some of the large irrigation tanks sit
uated on higher ground few miles out of
Vellore. They are all connected with one
another, and the supposltion is that the
higher tank went first and brought down
all the others like pack of cards. Five of
the irrigation tanks burst their bonds, and
altogether forty tanks in the neighborhood
have burst. What the volume of water
was that came rushing down on the lower
part of Vellore may be imagined when we
say that the flood is said by the authorities
at the station to have been mile in width
and eight to ten feet in depth in the main
channel. The district known as the Gus
bah contained alone about $500 inhabitants,
and there not single house has escaped.
The same remark applies 10 the lines ofthe
families of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and
Seventeenth regiments. The dead bodies
have been collected and buried in large
deep trenches outside the town"
