ground under the lake began devising means to secure this valuable ore.
 The greater part of the lake was owned by the Cleveland iron com panies. The first and second named companies did more or less work under the surface of the lake, but the ever present danger of a rush of water from above rendered it imperative that the water be taken out. Work was begun last spring before the snow left the ground, when rotary pump with a ca pacity of twenty thousand gallons per minute was anchored in barge in the center of the lake, and began pumping water into big Hume elevated twenty feet above the surface of the water. The pump has been going day and night, allowing for occasional break downs, and the water has only recent ly been drained all out.
 Now, however, remains a serious question to be settled. There is a bed of mud from two to forty feet deep over the bed of the former lake. This mud is kept moist by underground springs, from which the water bubbles up. Big tubular stand-pipes, pierced with myriads of small holes hardly larger than needles point, are being forged into the mud, and into these the water filters and is pumped out. The surface of the bed of the lake is more treacherous than quicksand, for any heavy object thrown on it is quick ly engulfed. Several narrow escapes from drowning have taken place. It will take sixteen months longer to get rid of the mud.

THE great oaks in Waverly, Mass, are survivors of an oak forest that must have existed in that region, ac- cording to the geologists, as far back as the tenth century.
 IT is stated that one New Yorker living opposite Central park expends one hundred and fifty dollars monthly upon his roof garden, and there are no less than six such parterres in the city.
 ORCHIDS are comparatively new to florists and the public, but they are becoming more common, and at the same time more perfect, every year. In spite of the fact that they are very expensive, as indeed all the choice blooms are nowadays, they are often seen in the florists supplies.

OLD-TIME STEAMBOAT RACING
A Negro Sat on the Safety Valve, HoIdin,
 Down the Steam.

A Negro Sat on the Safety Valve, Holding
 Down the Steam.
 The famous race between the Hanni- bal City and the Ocean Spray, which occurred in 1859, is the subject of an article in a St. Louis paper. Prior to this race the Ocean Spray had splendid records. The race was from St. Louis to Keokuk. The early part of the race was very close, and the excitement was intense. When nearing Bissell's Point the Ocean Spray found the Han nibal City passing her. The mate on the Ocean Spray, one Davis, becoming desperate, ordered the head of a barrel of turpentine to be knocked in. His men were then ordered to dip the wood in this turpentine before putting it in the furnace, the object being to quick ly increase the steam pressure. The Ocean Spray was supposed to carry only one hundred and sixty pounds of steam, but Davis thought that by ''put ting another negro on the safety valve" he could run the pressure up to two hundred pounds and distance his rival. In carrying the dripping wood to the furnace the track became saturated with the turpentine, which caught fire from the open furnace. The flame quickly reached the barrel. An at tempt was made to throw the barrel overheard, but it exploded, and, the burning oil being scattered all around, the boat was soon a mass of flames.
 Scott Matson was captain on the Hannibal City. He was a brave and generous man, and in this instance these two qualities made his name famous. Notwithstanding the immi- nent danger he ran his boat alongside the burning one and rescued every per son on board. Davis, the mate of the burned boat, was afterward convicted and sent to the penitentiary for such gross violation of the rules of safety. He was later pardoned.

 ? Few pieces of engineering work were ever undertaken that exceeded the pumping out of Lake Angeline, near 1shpeming, Mich, where pumps have been working for sixteen months. The water is all gone now, but apparently the hardest part of the work has still to be accomplished. The lake lies near the southern part of Ishpeming, cover ing one hundred acres, and was seven ty feet deep in the middle
 It was for a long time the source of that city's water supply, until the growth of the town about it's shores contaminated the water Under the bed of the lake lie the largest iron-ore deposits ever discovered. The ore was discovered some ten years ago, when a diamond drill was set on the frozen surface of the lake one winter, and a hole drilled six hundred feet down be- low the bed of the pig-iron. Large ore bodies were cut by the drill, and the three mining companies owning the
