MYSTERY OF TWO LAKES.

The Wetternsee in Sweden, like so
many other lakes, has long enjoyed the
local reputation Of being botlomlcss
pit. The Swedish scientists have now
destroyed the venerable legend. for in
the measurement taken Il few days
ago they have successfully demon
strated that the greatest depth Of
the lake is only ll9 meters. There still
remains. however, series Of myS-
tcrl@s which science mus; be content
TO leave unsClvpd-at least for

ground for the queer suppOsition that
living creatures. animals and veg

conclusion has been partly justified by
the appearance Of exactly the same

A CURIOUS STORY.
How Some Squirrels In Maine Fed a
Flock of Hungry Sheep
with Apples.

A Bar Harbor man tells this story
of how the squirrels on White islanC
often spend their time ia feeding Q
flock of sheep from a certain orchard
there. lie says that he and his com.
panion, who were duck-ShCoiiug there
last fall, had stopped TO res; in ar
old field in which there was an orchard
flock of sheep was feeding near by
1t was not long before their atten.
tion was called to the chirruring OF
some squirrels in Il thickct. and tncN
were surprised to see the sheep sudden
~ stop feeding and manifest great
excitement. The squirrels went into
the orchard and, climbing one Of the
trees.resumed their loud chatter, evi
IDENTIFY calling the sheep. since the
flock made for the apple tree. Their
the squirrels began to Bite on the
apples, which fell among the hungry
sheep, who would struggle fer the
fruit like SO many scho0l-boys.
The squirrels. says the Krnnebcc
Journal, seemed to enjoy the fun. anc
after they had dropped few apples
frcm the first tree they skipped to
a distant tree, for which the sheer
would make in great confusion. After
the squirrels had thus enjoyed a,
hours fun with their feecy ncighbor:
and supplied them with sufficient
quantity of the fruit, they scampercC
back to their haunts in the thi"kct

Roberts, Ark, April 4th, 1898.

The largest city in the world is
London, lying in four counties and
having a population of 1850, goo,
equaling the combined population
Paris, Berlin, ST. Petersburg and
Rome. To walk through all the
streets, avenues, lanes and alleys Of
the city, never traversing the same
one twice, would require a ten mile
walk every day for nine years, The
streets placed in a row, would reach
around the world, and have a rem

tho decision 10 charter AN four OF them

ready been acquired by the department
though the form of acquisition WAS tenta-

BUSINESS AND WAR.
Volume is Two Per Cent. Larger lhah
i'm 1897 Despite Stagnation.

NEW YORK. April l5.-R. 6. Dun a
Companys Weekly Review or Trade TO-
morrow will say:
The meaning Of Congress regarding
Spain is not i'm doubt. but the form Oh DC
claration at this hour IS I'm question. Inc
Presidents message has been accepted
MS "a strong statement OF the situation
and the question in Congress l. Whe'heI
~ will without change adopt bis proposal.
Presentations for war continue as II II
were inevitable. There Is some hindrance
I'm business. and yet the volume of pay.
ments through clearing house are larger
than last year and outside New YORK
about . per cent. larger than in 49,
though speculative stagnauon mere
makes the aggregate lower.
The industries are doing well because
they have enormous orders taken in Feb-
ruary or March or earlier, which ensure
operations for periods varying from n
fortnight to several months.
In the iron trade there are orders Tor
about 20 900 tons for structural work held
ND BY questions Of law. While new bust
ness offered in this line Is still very heavy,
the production is so large that II may
easily be disastrously checked by per-
sistent restriction of the current demand.
With prices for print cloths still at the
lowest point ever touched buying Of cot
ton goods is more hindered than many
are willing TO admit by the idea That
other goods. not equally over produced
may likewise decline i'm price. The stag
nation in wool is something remarkable,
the total sales at the three chief markets
having been only 1.lS2.1A pounds against
$685. last year.
Wheat rose II and held IL cents of
the week. although Atlantic exports for
the week have been 30i502l bushels,
-four included. against S16,l l9 last year,
and Pacific exports 81 36S bushels against
2l2.0J6 last year. The total from both
coasts for the two weeks of April has
been 7,379136 bushels against 3.0jIiS2 last
year. The receipts from western farms
show some decrease for the week, but
for two weeks are only about six hun
dred thousand bushels smaller than a
year ago.
Meanwhile il IS astonishing that re-
ceipts Of corn continue remarkably heavy.
for the week more than a million bushels
larger than last year and for two weeks
more than $4,000 bushels. and the eN-
ports for the week have been 4.h53ual
bushels against 2.70S 73S last year and for
half of April Sth. 1iG.6S1 bushels against
6032.0l5 last year.
Such extraordinary exports Of corn 80

character, nor likely 10 diminish speed

The volume Of legitimate business IS
enormous. and meanwhile failures are
remarkably small: for the. week they have
