that their four.footed charge should pro. i,

when the Emir was engaged in opposing

miles northeast from Jacksonville This lake rivals the
famous valley Of Sinbad the Sailor II Is thought

water and leaving no beach The depth OF the water
lies below the surface OF the mountain that the air
currents do affect IT, It's length Is estimated ut
twelve miles and It's width ten. There Is island In It's
centre having trees upon It. No living has,
and probably will be able to reach the waters edge
II lies SILENT still and mysterious In the bosom OF the
Everlasting hill, " liko huge well scooped out by the
giant gcn OF the mountains, in the unknown regions
gone by and around II the prmcval forests watch and
ward keeping The visiting party fired rife several
times into the water Mt angle OF forty five degrees
and able note several seconds Of time from the
report Of the gun until the ball struck the Such
