Discovery of the Deepest Body of Fresh
Water in the Country.

Captain G.. F.. button, Of the U. s.
Geological Survey, has been recently en-
gagged in making a study of Crater Lake, i'll
Oregon. and the latest adYices received
from HIM show that he has discovered
probably the deepest body Of fresh water
III the country. Leaving Ashland, Ore,
his party, escorted by ten soldiers, pro
viGcd through the courtesy of the General
commanding the military department OF
the Columbia reached the brink of the wall
Of the lake after six days Journey, having
brought with thcm boats 50 mounted on the
running gear of wagons as TO bear
transportation over u hundred miles Of
mountain read without injury. The boats
bore the transportation without strain on
damage, and preparations were at once be-
gun for lowering them 800 feet to the
water, The steepness of the wall was very
great, being at the place selected about Al
degrees or ~ degrees, and the descent
partly over ta!us, above covered
with snow, and rocky, broken lodges
lower down. The boats entered the water
quite unframed. The process of shcathing
them, rigging the tackle and lowering them
occupied four days A couple of days were
occupied in making journeys around the
walls of the lake by boat-the only possible
way-and IN examining the rocks and
structures of the wall i'll its various parts.
Next followed a series of soundings. The
depth OF the lake considerably exceeded the
Captains ahticipations, though the alb
sence of any thing like Il talus near the
water line already indicated deep water
around the entire shore. The depths range
from s53 feet to 1896 feet, so far as the
soundings show, and it is quite possible
and probable that depths both greater and
shallower may be found. The average
depth is about ] 400 feet. The descent from
the waters edge is precipitous; at 100 or
800 yards from shore depths of 1,5O0 to
1850 feet are found all around the margin.
The greatest depths will probably exceed
!,09J feet, for it is not probable that the
lowest point has been touched. The
soundings already made indicate it as be-
ing the deepest body of fresh water in the
country

Whom a Man Weighs Most.
[Chicago Tribune. ]

According to the experiments carried
out by the Belgian savant Quetelet man
attains his maximum weight towards his
10th year, and begins to lose it sensibly to-
wards his 66th year. A woman, however,
does not attain her maximum weight until
her 50th year. The age at which people at
tain their maximum weight and the weight
itself differ in the different classes of So
ciety. In the affluent classes the average
maximum weight is l72 pounds, and is at
tanned at 80 years of age. In the artisan
class it is 154 pounds, attained at 40
Amongst farm laborers it is Ill pounds,
