A Lost Lake.

A curious spectacle was to be seen on
the outskirts of Gainesville, Fla, re-
Gently. Alachua lake, from ton to ff-
teen miles in length and covering some
10000 acres of land, is no more. On its
banks were lying thousands of dead fish,
dead alligators hoated CHASTITY in pools of
black water and the atmosphere was
heavy with noxious gases. Men and boys
were there in throngs with hoes and
rakes, dragging to shore hundreds of fish
which had sought the pools for refuge.
The waters were fairly alive with their
struggles for existence Except for q
small stream known as Payne's creek,
flowing from Newman's lake into the
Sink, the two main basins Of the Sink and
a few stagnant pools no water is now to
be seen where few years ago steamers
were ploughing their way. This is the
c caffshc sj ss iaRsI f8a that si@alaE SS;
the bed Of the lake was large prairie
Payne's prairie-having in it a body Of
water called the Sink and small creek.
In 1868 heavy rains filled up the prairie,
but the water disappeared after a short
time, and the prairie was again dry land.
In 1873, after series of heavy rains,
tho Sink overhowed and the creek swelled
to the Dimensions of lake. During
several years the waters increased till a
larger lake was formed, and for fully
fifteen years sufficient depth of water
stood over the prairie to allow of small
steamers. During the last two years,
however, tho waters have been gradually
lowering. and about four weeks ago thew
commenced going down with surprising
rapidity, the lake falling about eight feet
in ten days, until now nothing is left of
Alachua Lake but the memory of it..
The Sink is considered the cause of this
change. There is evidently an under
ground passage connected, and for some
reason not understood this underground
passage has been acting Us drain until
all the water in the lake has been drawn
off.-[Providence Journal.

st. Louis Insane Asylum Authorities
Charged with Horrible Crime.
A pathetic story of the career Of an in
sane girl and an attempt of the local health
authorities to dispose of her dissected body
by burying 1t In the potter's field without
the knowledge Of her mother. who is a
wealthy resident OF ST. Louis County, has
come to light in ST. Louis. The girl was
Miss Maggie Long. She was made insane
by cverstudy and committed TO the city

and 1t soon became only question of time
before death would relieve the sufferer.
The mother arranged with the asylum at
taches that when the end of her daughter
approached she should at once be summon

TO any Of her family. The next day posr

almost been cut TO pieces, City Undertaken

potter's field. The last rites were to have
been performed, but AN hour before the
time Of the burial Mrs. Long called at the
asylum TO see her daughter. She was at
first refused admittance. but when she in

A terrible explosion of gas occurred In

burning and injuring several others that 1t

doubtedly ignited by a naked light in the
hands OF some one OF the men. The dam

English Women.

The English woman is greatly adj
mired for her utter refusal to worry or
be worried, and the consequence is
that she looks young at so. She un-
dertakes no more than she can COM
fortably carry out, and thoroughly
hsli Sf Ia a th Hy eoming Of an9thsg dry y
crastinates; she simply will not let
the domestic machinery grind her
down to ill-health and early old age.
She is frequent bather, and re-
CARDS health as the prime factor Of
life, to be looked after before every
thing else. though the breakfast may
be an hour late.
She sleeps nine hours, and takes a
nap during the day at that. She ar
ranges her days work in the most
systematic manner, and her little
memorandum slip always shows two
vacant hours; these are for rest.
She eats heartily, but the most di-
gestible food. In the most modest
home, no matter how little there may
be on the table, there is nothing but
the best.
She would rather have mouthful
of good food and go partly hungry
than eat a whole meal of cheaper
things. She is true economist, reg
ulates her expenses carefully, and is a
.true, believer in. the allowance sVstem-.
There are some things about tho
English woman which her AmericaII
sister dislikes, just as it is vice versa
at the same time there are Others
which would make our American
women happier and healthier il the

Own Hands.
Timothy Healy, McCarthyfte member of
the House of Commons for the northern d.
vison of the County OF Longford, has been
publicly horsewhipped in the streets of
Dublin by Mr.. McDermott, nephew of the
late Charles Stewart ParnelL Such, says
a dispatch from Dublin, is the terse record
of an interesting and not unexpected event
which has just been placed upon the bulle-
tin boards of the various newspapers of this
city, every one of which is surrounded by
demonstrative crowds of hot blooded
Irishmen. The Parnellites in the
throngs which gaze upon the big black
letters of the notice are jubilant, and do
not hesitate to taunt the McCarthyites,
who also crowd about the boards. The con-
sequence is that n number of fights have
already occurred, while the temper OF the
partisans is such as TO suggest the necessity
for strong and vigilant police patrols. 1t
has been In the air that Mr.. Healey would,
by some one and somehow, be called to a
prompt reckoning for the exceedingly Wig
orous speech delivered by him at Longford.
Ordinarily, Mr. Healy is a remarkably for
chile orator but on the occasion in ques-
tion he excelled himself In his reference to
