ALBANY WEEKLY HERALD: SATURDAY JULY 16, 189a. A Queer Purlflr Co««t Lake. One of the natural curiosities In Klildtot oountyts Lone lake, which lies in a butte oj* mound in the Sim coo foothill* six tnilee northwest of this city. ILe butte look* a* though the top had caved in, a* the tree* . axe lying dead all over the bottom and year* ago, were growing whore the lake now liek. This lake cannot be seen until one reaches the summit of the butte, aa it is circular in font) and surrounded by a wall or bank of earth which is covered with trees. The bank itself is more than 100 feet high. The early settlers tell of cutting bay on the ground which this body of water now covers a good many years ago. There is no doubt the wa ter* are steadily rising. Tree* have been oovOred, have fallen, and now lie slowly decaying beneath the wn ter*. It is fairly possible that tbe lake will one day fill the entire car ity in the butte and overflow the banks. A few years ago the lake was stocked with carp, and its wu ter* are fairly alive with them now —Ooldendale Sentinel Fr*neb OslUntrj.

One day, after distributing all she had brought, she stopped before a subaltern just deprived of a limb. "Ah, my poor friend," said she “there is nothing left for you. ” "Madame," replied the soldier, “a smile from you will content me.” Here was French gallantry, crop out amid the most horriblo sur A DU of Correspondence.
