RIVERS AND OCEANS.

THE sea contains in solution 9, 900. O00
tons of silver.
Tue rivers annually pour into the
ocean $500 cubic miles of water.
DURING the most violent gales the
sea is disturbed to depth of 500 feet.
TnE greatest cataract as we'll as the
highest trees in the world are Ameri-
can.
THE Dakota river is the longest un.
navigablc river in the world-over ono
thousand miles.
AT depth of more than four miles
the ocean is without life, without vegc-
tation and without light
Ar the bottom of the ocean the
temperature remains practically CON
slant at any one spot throughout the
whole of the year.
WHEN the German ocean storm
waves are flinging spray over the Bell
Rock lighthouse they exert pressure
of 6,1a0 pounds per square SCOT.
TIE salticst lake in the world is
Lake Urnmia, i'll Persia, situated at
more than four thousand feet above
the level of the sea. 1t contains 10
per cent. of salt, as against IS pcr
cent. In the Dead sea.
TnE sea is salt by reason of the
Garth washincs which are poured into
1t. 1t has different dcnsitics because
OF the Influence OF rainfalls, cvapora-
tions, etc. and would become stagnant
but for the working of the great ocean

A DRIFTING MATCH.

The first meeting of the valkyrie and the
vigilant was disappointing and inconcluSive.
There was not enough wind to enable the
yachts TO go over the course within the limits
Of time imposed by the committee. great
swarm Of sight-sceTs returned TO town after
nghtfall with the impression that yachting is
the dullest and least satisfactory of sports;
and so ii Is when the sea is as siagnant as a
mll-pond and the breeze is too languid to stir
the ribbons of a lady's hat. 1t was a drifting
match, with feeble puffs Of wind and long in
tervals Of unbroken calm. When it was over
The spectators knew as little about the com
paratlve merits of the rival yachts as they did
when IT began The most experienced yachts
men were equally at loss to decide which
had shown itself TO be the better boat.
If the valkyrie appeared on the whole TO
have any advantage over the Vigilant. 1t was
in her superior senstiveness to the slightest
changes Of air currents. She seemed to re-
spond with consummate delcacy and nicely
to the least culver of breeze She prodtcd by
every little fuke and flaw. and drew ahead OF
her rival apparently without help from the
elements. Much OF her advantage was due 10
the skill with which she was sailed. Her
captains keen eye discernel streak Of wind
when no one else thought Of II. and his yacht
was in it and working ahead while the vigi-
liant lay becalmed and ont of IT. The American
boat may have done somewhat better during
tho last hour, but comparisons based upon the
performance of either yacht in such happy
go-lucky drifting match arc waste Of breath.
The race has been postponed until tomorrow.
when il is to be hoped that both yachts will
have all the wind they want. II may be that
as the result Of the first Elusive trial under
fair-wcathcr conditions. the wbistllng for
