CAPABILITIES OF WELLS.

Various attempts are in progress to
get from artesian wells not only
water but power and heat as well.
Machinery is already driven by the
pressure, in France, and experience
shows that the heat may be in
creased by adding to the depth OF
the well. At Grenelle well 1902
feet deep, and yielding daily SOC, 900
gallons, has a pressure of sixty
pounds to the square inch, and the
water is 80 hot that it is employed
for heating hospitals in the vicinity.
The deepest we'll in the world is be-
ing sunk at Pesth, Hungary, TO sup
ply hot water for public baths. 1t
now yields daily 10000 gallons
heated to 1853 degrees, and the bor-
ing is to be continued until the tenn
perature is raised to l76 degrees.

The Great War Syndicate.
By FRANK R. STOCKTON.

pe1Ier were crushed and slivered: those parts of the steamers engines connect ing with the propeller shaft were snapped and rent apart. whale the propeller shaft itself was broken by the violent stop page.
 The crab, which had quickly lighted, now backed, still holding the crushed propeller in it's iron grasp, and as it moved away from the Scarab:eus, it ex- tracted about forty feet of it's propeller shaft; then, opening its massive jaws, it allowed the useless mass of iron to drop to tho bottom of the sea.
 Every man on board the Scarabeus was wild with amazemert and excite ment. Few could comprehend what had happened. but this very quickly be- Came evident. So far as motive power was concerned. the Scarabseus was to- tally disabled. She could not direct her course, for her rudder was gone: her propeller was gone; her engines were useless, and she could do no more than float as wind or tide might move her. Moreover, there was jagged hole in her stern where the shaft had been, and through this the water was pouring into the vessel. As man-of-war the Scara- b;eus was worthless.
 Orders now came fast from Repeller So. 1, which had moved nearer to the scene of conflict. It was to be supposed that the disabled ship was properly fur nished with bulkheads. so that the water would penetrate no farther than the stern compartment, and that, therefore, she was in no danger of sinking. Crai A was ordered to make fast to the bow of tGe ScarabHrus, and tow her toward two men-of-war who were rapidly ap- preaching from tho harbor

 they bore an immense net, three or four hundred feet long and thirty feet deep, composed of jointed steel rods. Along the upper edge of this net was series of air floats. which were so graduated that they were sunk by the weight of the net a few feet below the surface of the water. from which position they held the net suspended vertically.
 This net, which was intended to pro- tect the repelle1 against the approach of submarine torpedoes which might be directed from the shore. was anchored at each end. two very small buoys indi- eating its position. The crabs then fall ing astern, Repeller No. l lay to. with the sunken net between her and the shore, and prepared to project the first instantaneous motor bomb ever used in warfare.
 The great gun in the bow of the vessel was loaded with one of the largest and most powerful motor bombs; and the spot to be aimed at was selected. This was point in the water just inside of the mouth of the harbor. and nearly { mile from the land on either side. The distance of this point from the vessel be- ing calculated. the cannon was adjusted at the angle called for by the scale of distances and levels, and the instrument indicating rise. fall and direction was then put in connection with it.
 Now the director-in-chief stepped for ward to the button, by pressing which the power of the motor was developed. The chief of the scientific corps then showed him the exact point upon the scale. which would be indicated when the gun was in its proper position, and the piece was then moved upon it's bear
