An Excellent Idea.
AX IXTKRKPTXfJ suggestion
of a solution for the Chinese
ptlX'iile is made by H. T, Hos
nmn, a iiiomliient merclinnt
of-Hong Kong His idea Is that in
stead of nibbing I'hlnu, Hie Christian
poweis should play the Hood S.im.ni
tau to her In tills wise:
"Let the povveis agiee upon the
amount of indemnity tu be paid and
then conti.icL among- themselves and
with the Peklu government that the
entile sum, say J200.00O.O00, shall be
used for bulldluu mill nails and for
oilier Internal impiovements In China
undei Hie Joint control of the poweis,
10 be opeialed by thorn until the lull
amount of the Investment is letuined,
and until China is in a position to he
roine, by puicliiis", Hie sole owner of
the impiovemeuls. Railioads will do
mine In develop the Chinese than any
other agency. They will cause the peo
ple of Hie interior to tiavel and to
111 Millie that bieadlll of view 'Which
culm s Hum iiiiitait with the woild,
tjliluu Is in rich need of r.illioads,
while the lest of the win Id Is elamnilng
lor bio.ider trade t.tcllitles. The .situ
ation seems to have been cieated fot
leciproral negotiations along' a cei tain
line. Railroads could he' built by the
bow eis 011 the h.islis of a :i 01 I per

demnity bond until the claims of all
the poweis ni" paid. In after yenic a
thaine 1 mild be given to China to ne
Hiilie the properllfs out of the net
em ulngs, alter the Indemnity had been
piovlded tor All sin plus nnd be
lleve tbeie would be a sin plus could
be used lo develop mine lailioads fly
that lime the Chlipse pioblem would
have been solved "
This pioiiosliliiii has manifest meilt,
The dllllclillv 111 the vwij. of Its udop
iliui and execution is Hut moie than
half of Hie powetsdo not want to help
China! they want to lipp themselves.

gable balloon, Invented by M. August

ited iciently in tho Crystal Palace,

shapcil, seventeen I'eet long and tlnee
feet tune Inches In diameter. It was
steeled bv a blond 1 udder, and pin
pclled by four two-bladed sciews, one
lorward, one afl, und two side by side
amidships. The utr was In the middle,
and the balloon was steadied by a
weight which kept It on rip even keel,
and In a teal btlloon would servo tho
double purpose of moorings at sea, and
holding- Ihc balloon to earth on land.

Inventor, a Flench aeion.iut, wants to

which be llgtircs would have 11 lifting
