A BLOOD-RED LAKE.
Popularity Manifested by q Sheet of
Water in Switzerland.

Popularity Manifested by Sheet of
Water in Switzerland.
Lake Morat, in Switzerland, has
queer habit of turning red about two or
three times every ten years. 1t is a
pretty lake, like most of the sheets of
water in that picturesque country, and
it's peculiar freak is attributed to dis
position to celebrate the slaughter of
the Burgundians under Charles the
Bold on June 81, 1476. But the French
say it bushes for the conduct of the
Swiss, who in that battle gave the Bur-
gundians no quarter. This year it was
redder than ever, and had a sinister APP
pearance when the setting sun illumi-
mated it's waves.
This phenomenon, of course, has its
legend. The old fishermen of the lake,
who catch enormous fish called silures
that weigh between rs and 40 kilograms,
say when they see the waters of
the lake reddening that it is the blood of
the Burgundians. AS a matter of fact,
some of the bodies of the Burgundians
killed in the battle were thrown into
the lake, while others were tossed into
a grave filled with quicklime. This his
torical recollection angered the Bur-
gundian soldiers of the victorious arm
les of the republic in 1898 so much that
they destroyed the monument raised in
honor of their compatriots who fell he
roically in that battle, and Henri Mar
tin very justly reproached them for that
piece of vandalism.
1t would hardly do to attribute the
reddening of the waters of the lake to
the blood of the soldiers of Charles the
Bold. The coloring is due simply to the
presence in large quantities of little
aquatic plants called by naturalists
oscillatoria rubescens. The curious
thing about it is that Lake Morat is the
only lake in which this curious growth
is developed, and this popularity is be-
ginning to interest scientific men.

No Danger of Explosions In Mines Here
after without Warning.

after without Warning.
For inventors danger
to miners from fredamp has always
been a problem. Sir Humphrey Davy.
with his non-eXplosive lamp, decreased
the chances of danger considera bly,,
but the frequent fatal accidents re-
ported show that the risk is still alarm
ing.
At last, however, French scientist,
Hardy, by name, has patented an inven-
ton which entirely obviates the dan.
ger, and has thereby earned the graft
tude of the hundreds of thousands of
workers underground in America and
Europe.
Some years ago M. Hardy made dis
covery, which he communicated to the
French academy, which reported ia
vorably upon it, and suggested its use
for the purpose of mining. Acting upon
the suggestion, the inventor has been
working upon the idea ever since, and
has now perfected system by which
any outbreak of firedamp becomes i'm
mediately known all over the mine that
is threatened.
The system is a simple one. M. Hardy
found that different gases could be
made when connected with telephone
arrangement, to produce several
sounds. The system he has invented
connects all the shafts of a mine with
central point, at which an operator is
stationed. Any outbreak of the fatal
gas is Immediately discovered by him,
however minute it's quantity, and he
at once notifies the miners of their dam
ger. They are able, therefore, to es-
cape long before the gas could accu-
mulate in any quantity sufficient to be
dangerous.
The invention is already in success
full operation in a few of the French
mines, and will doubtless come into
general use all over the world.-N. Y.

SOLID GOLD TOILET SET,
Property of the Khedive Incrusted wit
Precious Stones.

Property of the Khedive lncrusted with
Precious Stones.
1t is said that the only complete gold
toilet set in the world belongs to the
khedive of Egypt. It's exact value is not
known, but 1T must be enormous, for the
set is incrnsted with diamonds and
other precious stones. Egypt, by the
way, has debt of about S525, OOO, 900,
and besides the interest on this has to
pay an annual tribute to the sultan of
Turkey amounting to nearly So, 500 900.
Despite this the present khedive has
been following in the footsteps of his
predecessors, whose extravagances
brought about the present almost bank
rupt condition of the country.
Each piece of the khedive's golden
toilet set bears his monogram in dia-
monds. Upward of 5000 diamonds and
over 1900 rubies were used in decorat-
ing these gorgeous adjuncts to the
Egyptian rulers dressing table. The
body of each of the % pieces is of 49,
karat gold, and all are inclosed in dia.
