Manv Athletes In Olympic Games.

The victories of American athletes
in past Olympian games have been so
consistent that every other competing
country is making special efforts to
break the chain of triumphs at the
coming games ut Stockholm next
July. 1t is expected that entries for
the track and field events will be re-
ceved from close to twoscore nations
and subsidiary territories.
1t Is evident, therefore, that the
American team for the 1912 Olympic
meet will have to be bigger and bet
ter than ever before in order to main
tain the supremacy and status achiev-
ed In the preceding games Close fol-
lowers of athletics in this country be-
lieve that the mammoth meet of next
summer will be more closely contested
than ever before ard that new Olym-
pic records will be established in a
number of events.

WALLED LAKE.
Where Its Water Comes From or
Where It Goes Is a Mystery.

One of the curioSitieS OF the west is
hundred miles west of Dubuque la.
This lake is from two to three feet
higher than the earth's surface. In
some places the wall is ten feet high.
fifteen feet wide Mt the bottom and
five feet on top. A remarkable cir
cumstance with reference to this odd
lake is the size of the stones used in
its construction. inasmuch us the whole
of them varies in weight from three
tons to 100 pounds There is album
dance of stones in Wright county. hut
surrounding the lake to the extent of
five or ten miles there are none
No one has any idea as to the means
employed to bring these stones TO the
spot or as to who constructed this lake.
Around the entire lake is a belt Of
woodland half mile in length COM
posed of oak With this exception the
country is rolling prairie. The trees
must have been planted there at the
time of the building of the wall. In
the spring of the year 1856 there was
great storm. and the ice on the lake
broke the wall in several places. The
farmers in the vicinity were obliged to
repair the damages to prevent inunda
ton. The lake occupies ground sur
face of $500 acres. The depth of the
water Is us great as twenty-five feet.
The water is clear and cold: the soil
is sandy and loamy. 1t is a singular
fact that no one has been able to as.
certain where the water comes from
nor where it goes. yet it is always
fresh and clear.-New York Press.
