FLORIDA LAKE HAS GONE DRY.
Lake jackson Empties Itself Into Sub
terranean Body.

1t is not often that the quiet state
capital of Florida has a real sensa
ton. but one came during the pas,
week. and the people will have sui
ticient excitement 10 live upon unit
something more serious happens.
Lake Jackson has run dry.
Lake jackson is located six miles rc
the north of the capital and covers
an area of five thousand acres. For
some time it has been noticeable that
the waters of the lake were lowering
but this was attributed to the unusu
ally dry weather which has prevailed
during the winter
Last week. says a Tallahassee cor
respondent OF the Savannah News
the waters began running out so randi
~ that the entire town and country
side turned out TO witness The unusua.
sight. Vehicles of every descriDtiOU
were engaged and roads were filled
with them. reminding one of a pulici
cal barbecue i'm Georgia. There VA,
no doubt about it. The lake had
cmptied itself through a small hole il
the ground 10 a subterranean body OF
water. and the mystery of it is not
yet explained.
Fish and tarrapin were gathered by
the car load. and camp fires were
built and on the bed OF the lake an
imprOmptu fish fry was held II has
been seven days wonder, Hundreds
visited the place every day, which is
SURPRISINGLY beautiful in its surround
ings.
The opening through which the wa.
ter disappeared is not more than two
feet in diameter. the walls of the an.
erture being of d finty substance.
There is d theory that the recent
earthquakes offer a possible solution
OF the phenomenon, but this is scout
ed by the older residents.
In Alachua county there is a smaller
lake of the disappearing kind. and il
is said that many years ago Lake
Jackson did the same stunt.
Al this time, SO runs the theory, a
single was marked and thrown into
the vortex and some months later was
picked up and identified in the Gulf,
indicating that the underground
stream which caught the waters of
the lake when the bottom fell out has
an outlet into the Gulf of Mexico.

$4,000 POUNDS OF FISH.

In describing the recent remarka-
bic haul of Spanish mackerel of
Palm Beach the Palm Beach News

The facts are that early Sunday

that were on watch on the ocean

Spanish maCkerel apparently mi
grating from the warm waters around
Miami and passing this point on their
way northward. Boats were manned
ami run out, and the first boat TO get
its net around the school brought both
ends To and hauled the net and its
catch upon the shore just north Of
The Breakers. The haul amounted 10
exactly l6.0N9 pounds. This scared
the fish 81 that the school scattered
some. and the second net only brought
in l.511 pounds. while the third nets
catch was !. 3l% pounds. These fish
were all caught by fishermen in the
employ OF Samples fish house. and
the weights are just as taken from the
books Of that company.
The East Coast Fish Company also
had boats OUT. and during Sunday and
Monday, the TWO days that ii took the
immense school of mackerel to pass
this point. this company received
from their boats something over H.
GOO pounds. The Semple company
Monday received from their first net
512 pounds. from the second net 5.2S1
pounds. and from the third 4,153
pounds, making the total two days
receipts for the Semple company ~
Az pounds. Anew independent fisher
men also caught quite few, so il can
be safely said that the total catch
amounted 10 $4,000 pounds, all OF
which were packed in ice and shipped
to northern markets, and ii took
some hard and lively work to barrel
them up and get them ready.
This is the largest catch of fish
made here this season. which was
good for the fishermen. whose luck
has been none of the best for most
of the past year
