PeculiaritipS Of Lake Tahoe.

The fact that Il dead body will not
rise to the surface after II has ihIlcn
into Lake Tahoe hHN received consider
able attention at different times,
Many theories more or less scientific
and reasonable. have been made to ne
count for the phenomenon. For in
stance, II has been suggested thut tn"
waters of the like, being So cold, pre-
serve the body and prevent the turna-
ton of those gu-cs which ordinarily
would cause II To- rise to the surface.
BY the formation of gases the body Is
aistended, thus displacing AN amount
oi water the weight 81 the body. Ac-
cording to the WrIl-knuWu principle of
physics, the body will then rlar. II
these gases nrc not formed. the specific
gravity Of the body. being greater than
that Of water, 1t will remain immersed.
This would seem To- ncccesItntc tn,
continued preservation of tn,
body in natural state, but II il not
improbable that II would be destroyed
i'll time 10y the fish.
There is another fact TINT helps out
this theory. At great depths water
has nm enormous pressure. The
bottom Of Luke Taho" has never been
found III the central part of the lake.
Bodies sinking TO n depth Of 100 feet
or more wuuld be subjected to press
IRE OF several pounds to the squnr,
inch of surface. This would doubtlcs,
be mn important factor in the prcser
walton Of the body. Experiment.

will be subjected to sufficient pressure
to force the cork into the jug 49, True

A FIVE O'CLOCK POEM.

II, shadows lie across the road
In long, cool streaEs;
The sunshine touches tenderly
The green Hill peaks.
The air is clear as clear can he,
The sky. soft blue;
And all the earth seems fair aud sweet,
The heavens, too.
And by the walk before the gate,
The evening breeze
Makes all the leaves to bend and wave
Upon the trees.
The sun is low above the hill
Out toward the w.sti
The quiet air brings happily
hint OF rest.
The cow goes slowly long the fence;
And in the field,
The men amid the hay, their scythes
Have ceased TO WELD
So sweet and bright and fair has been
This afternoon
That one might wish tho whole round year
Could be all June.
But best OF all the summer eve
Is this see
A CHEEKY man comes up the path
'Tis John, to tea.
