The lake which has the distinction
of being the most elevated body OF
water in the world is Green lake, Colo
RADIO. Its surface is 10,252 feet above
the level of the sea, and it's shores are
perpetually covered with snow. The
water of the lake is as clear as crystal,
and large sections of petrified trees
are distinctly visible at a depth OF over
100 feet In one portion of the lake
large area of the bottom is still covered
with standing petrifed forest. The
branches of these rock trees are OF daz-
cling whiteness, giving them the APP
pearance of having been cut from mar
ble. The maximum depth of the lake
is 223 feet.

ARE PROBABLY DEAD.
Hope Of Rescuing Entombed
Miners at Houghton, Mich,
Given UP.
Fires Still Raging Fiercely
and Workmen Cannot
Go Below.
Thirty of the Two Hundred
Employees Yet Unac-
counted For.

HoUaHToN, Mich, Sept. g. Huge
volumes of smoke are still issuing forth
from the mouths Of shafts Nos. /, 2 and
3, which shows that the awful fire
which started in the Osceola copper
mine shortly before noon Saturday is
still raging fiercely, and the bodies of
the 30 miners entombed are still lying
somewhere below the surface without a
doubt dead, suffocated by smoke and
gas. Captain P. Richards, with gang
of seven men, went down No. shaft
during the evening and went about 700
feet toward No. shaft, when they had
to turn and fee for their lives on ac-
count of the smoke and gas. Some Of
these men were very nearly overcome,
only reaching surface
In Time to Save Their Lives.
1t is learned that the place where the
fire caught was the worst place that it
could have caught in the whole mine,
and the only place in the mine where
fire of any extent could have caught.
Many Of the men that were working
several levels below the 9th, in which
the fire caught, were seen as far up
as the 18th level, working their way
up. Several Of the men who escaped
claim to have passed others On the lad
ders who were unable to proceed fur
ther on account of being overcome with
smoke and gas. At the time the alarm
was sounded over 200 were under
ground, and all could have escaped had
they used proper precaution. Several
miners in their fight passed group of
seven or eight men who had stopped to
rest and were smoking their pipes.
When told to hurry to the surface, they
remarked that they had plenty of time
and
Not One of Them Reached Surface.
The skips were kept running up and
down all day Saturday in order to give
any of the entombed miners a chance to
escape if they could reach the skip alive,
but none came up. There is no danger
of the bodies being burned, as it is gem
orally thought that the men escaped
from the burning shaft to some Of the
drifts leading to other shafts and were
overcome by gas and smoke before they
could reach place Of safety. This be-
ing the case, the bodies will be recov-
cred as soon as the fire is gotten under
control and the gases leave the mine.
The shaft has been surrounded all day
by thousands of people, all hoping that
some sign or word would be gotten
from the men, but have now all re-
turned to their homes fearing the worst.
All hope has been given up by the Off
cials OF ever rescuing any of the men
alive.

Considerable Increase in Freight Tariff
to Montana Points.
ST. PAUL, Sept. GA considerable
increase in freight rates to Montana and
Western territory has been ordered to
60 into effect. This grows out of the
conference held in this city few weeks
ago.
1t was announced that important
changes will be made in the freight tar
ifs of the Northern Pacific, Great North
ern and Union Pacific reaching Mon
tana territory and west, to take effect
Sept. 2. During the past two years
the tariffs to Montana and terri
tory west thereof have been on a
very low basis, the rates to this terri
tory being somewhat affected by the
very low rates made to Pacific coast ter
minals, by reason of the strong compe-
tition of the water lines between the
Atlantic seaboard and the Pacific coast
The new rates will restore the condi-
tions to about the normal basis in effect
before the reductions made about the
time the Great Northern line was COM
pleted to the coast in 1899.

having shifted to about southeast, it

wind dropped to five miles before the
finish. Defender gained minis. 43

boats bothered both yachts somewhat.
