FED BY FOUN-
TAIN OF PITCH
Celebrated Lake of Asphalt In
Trinidad Seems To Be
lnexhauStible.

One of the most singular lakes 10 the
world is the celebrated pitch lake OF the
Island of Trinidad. This lake spreads
over an area of ninety nine acres and it's
surface is composed of one great floating
macs OF asphsltum, scanned with veins
OF clear water. From it and similar
lake in Venezuela the worlds supply al
asphalt is drawn.
The pitch lake is vile place as far as
smells are concerned, for the air all
about it is heavy with noxious vapors,
and from the center OF the lake gusbes a
fountain Of liquid asphstum, in which
there float and break bubbles contain
ing most horrible gases.
The workmen go out on the surface Of
Ghis lake and cut great slabs of asphalt
tum, which are carried away. But the
next morning the hole they left 10 filed
up again with pitch which has risen
during the night, so the supply
seems to be iuexhaustible.
This curious lake was discovered by
SIR Walter Raleigh when he landed in
Trinidad in 1895 on his way to the mouth
of the Orinoco III search Of Ell Dorado
Another strange lake is situated TN a
peninsula which iuts out into the Cas-
plan Sea. The whole surface OF this
lake is covered with a soft crust OF salt
so thick and stroLg that man can ride
across it on horseback without any dan
ger of breaking through.
