grew up on the shores Of Cayuga lake,
lit will be the first time in the history
Of the lake that the body Of any person
drowned in its waters was ever seen
again. always had liking for geolog-
ical research and INDUCED it for many
years in investigating the bottom of Cay
uga lake.
MY experiments satisfied me that the
bottom Of the lake is a series Of large
openings and cavities, many Of them
craterlike. Some of these are 100 feet in
diameter. These craters, as / believe
them to be, lie at different depths, or,
rather, their raised edges are Of different
heights Their depths are fathomless.
They have undoubtedly become the re-
ceptacles Of the bodies Of the hundreds
Of people who are known to have been
drowned in the lake since that country
was settled and of the undoubted thou
sands Of people killed in the fierce bat
ties that were frequently waged on the
shores Of the lake between hostile tribes
Of aboriginal warriors during the CEN
turies preceding the coming of the white
man.
1T was in Cayuga lake that the fend-
ish murderer Ruloff lowered the bodies
Of his wife and child, 80 years ago, after
he had murdered them. The bodies were
inclosed in a chest. as he confessed be-
fore he was hanged at Binghamton for
another murder. The weeks that were
spent in dragging the lake for this chest
were simply wasted, for it was sunk into
the mouth Of one of those bottomless
openings. and, if it is not sinking yet, is
still floating about in those mysterious
depths.
within half a century more than 100
persons have been drowned in Cayuga
lake, to recover the bodies of whom the
graphing iron and drag were used in
dustriously, but in vain. If it were pos
s.5le for one to make the rounds of thii
lakes craterlike bed, he would, without
doubt. encounter hideous charnel house!

grinning skeletons have found sepulcher

Feed Wheat to Their Gown
Philadelphia milk consumers may
probably be interested in an experiment
Of the farmers Of the Schuyllill valley,
whence that city receives large quantities
Of its milk. Recently increased ship
ments Of milk have been made Wheat,
in round figures, sells at less than g
cents, and owing to its low price many
farmers are chopping theirs and feeding
it TO cattle. They say that bran Is a
cent a pound, corn nearly cent a pound
oats cent pound, and wheat cent a
pound, and that, as wheat has at least
one-third more milk producing qualities,
1t is cheaper at present prices to feed IL
than corn or anything else.
By actual test II was learned that 90
pounds Of wheat make more milk and Of
better quality than the same quantity Of
corn, or almost any other class Of feed,
and it ia stated that since Schuylkill val.
ley shippers are feeding wheat to Their

It IS the Prince Of Wales who is directly
responsible for the spread of the habit OF
smoking at the dinner table, the London
correspondent Of the Sheffield Independent
declares. When he first began to dine out,
smokers were fain to wait the opportunity
OF refinement to the smoking room. His
royal highness began modesry enough
with cigarette and has long ago reached
the cigar. There are still one OF two houses
IN London where cigars are not produced
and more where one is put of with the in
adequate cigarette. But they are growing
fewer. IL Is not usual to smoke at the Ia

Mark Twain

Mark Twain's hair has grown white
and his physique Is not so stalwart as it
was few years ago, but his mind is as
juvenile as ever. He has a hacking
cough, which, when he gives way to it,
is almost convulsiye in its tendency, but
the humorist seems entirely Indifferent
to its violence. He sat in a prominent
New York club few days ago, running
spasmodically from one stczy TO another
and commenting upon the talk Of his
companions. with a perpetual smile Turk
ing around the corners Of his mouth
Yet at short intervals he was bent over
almost double under the violence Of his
cough. When his companions referred
10 it, as they did on one OF two occasions,
Mr.. Clemens seemed quite unaware Of
the fact that he had been arousing good
deal Of sympathy as well as incessant
Observation-Disclosures
