LOWEST LAND IN THE COUNTRY
Geological Survey Determining 1.-The
Dapth of Death Valley.

Death valley, California, is the low
est point in the United States, but 10
the surprise Of every one acquainted
with the region the United States geo
logical survey has ascertained by the
use Of line of spirit levels that the
depth of that area is not so great as
had been supposed. The final compu-
tations have not yet been made, put
the preliminary figures give FOR the
lowest point a depth of 276 feet below
sea level. BENEFITS well, which is
near this point, is 266 feet below sea
level. These figures may be altered
by two or three feet On the nnal com
putting, but they are proDaDly not
more than three feet in error. Inc
geographical survey now has eleVa-
ton marks on the highest and lowest
points Of dry land in the Onltea
States.
1t is strange coincidence, says the
survey report, that these TWO ex-
tremes are in Southern California ana
only seventy-five miles apart Mount
Whitney is foot or two more than
$500 feet above the sea lever, Wnlle
Death valley, as above stated, IS 40
feet below. Before the Salton sink,
also in California, was flooded by the
Colorado river it contained the lowest
point of dry land in this country, a
spot 287 feet below sea level.
Previous estimates OF the depth OF
Death valley, based on barometer
readings, gave for the lowest point
figures varying from ESQ to $50 feet
below sea level The level line or the
geological survey is believed to be the
first accurate determination of eleva-
lions in that locality ever made.
California now goes ON record as
the state in which extremes meet
the highest and lowest points OF dry
land-New York Sun.

Of all the kaiser's sons Prince Au.
gust Wilhelm is the most studious and
the one who is fondest of literature
and art Since he left the military
school at POsen, where he and his
brothers were educated, he had had
but little opportunity of devoting him.

His two trimesters at Bonn unlver-
sity barely sufficed for him to attend
a score of lectures. Then came a
rapid tour around the museums and
picture galleries of Italy with his tu-
tor, ct c'est tout. The princes desire
was to return to the university for at
least couple of years, but his mar
rage will put an end to this and drill
ing squadron will be his fate IN

was this:
ITO obey the judge within and make
others happy.
IF the Judge within gives you q
clean verdict. we have no other judge
to fear, here or hereafter.
but after satisfying that Judge
above all else the way to be happy is
to make others happy"
Can a man accomplish as much at
seventy as at forty?" he was asked.
More. bless you. more" replied Car
negie. "All things being equal man q
efficiency is increased at seventy. He
is equipped with greater experience
The world is growing better, and II
follows that the men in 1t grow better
as they grow. older"
Carnegie was asked: When is mans
usefulness ripest?"
when he has attained the highest
degree of perfection of which he is
capable" was the reply. This means
that IL he conserves his physical and
mental powers he will be ripest when
he has attained long life. At seventy
am convinced that mans usefulness In
