Due to Force.

Anything containing force, like the
simple act of throwing a pebble into the
water, makes q splash Of white light. It
is supposed. and may be possible, that
there is some subterranean connection
with the ocean, which is only a few
hundred feet away, but nothing has been
discovered to prove it.
The idea is based upon the fact that
the ,ake is affected In some manner by
the rise and fall of the tide. But this
supposition only makes the matter more
mysterious on account of the higher
level of the water in the lake above the
level Of the sea-sone forty Or fifty feet.
The lake has been reduced In size by
the cutting of a ditch about four feet
wide by two feet deep through the COM
bination OF coral and soft limestone.
This ditch runs from the sea across Bay
street to the lake and keeps 1t down
to its present level. which Is much lower
than Ii formerly was
