RALLooNINa.-AtP Paris NJ Dupuy de LONE
has constructed an immense balloon weighing
nearly two tons, with the intention OF now or
never solving the vexed question OF aerial navl-
cation. The experiments made by NJ. de LONE
with this balloon have attracted much atten-
tion and are conceded to have developed some
favorable results. The balloon itself is elongaa
ted, presenting an area OF least resistance. 10
the car is attached huge sail one hundreo

has been found that by these means the bai-
loon of NJ. de LONE can be worked at con
siderable angle to the winds direction, FUR
ther experiments are being made, but all these
attempts so invariably end in failure that In
terest in them, through repeated dlsappoint-
ments has become anguid. If NJ. de LONE,
