The drowning of several hundred Rusâ€" sian soldiers in Lake Baikal, in Siberia, has been chronicled in the despatches, but the report is declared erroncous. The lake is from 20 to 60 miles wide, and 500 to 600 miles long. It lies between 180 and 110 degrees cast longitude and 50 to 56 degrees north latitude.

Its depth is a mile in places, Lake Superâ€" ior, tLe deepest of American lakes, is 1,030 feet deep. _ \ rcrfectly trustworthy persons, of high ntelligence and universally respected, will vouch for it that they themselves have seen the banks of rivers in Britâ€" ish Columbia packed with dead salmon which produced such a disagreeable atâ€" mosphere by reason of their disintegraâ€" tion that it was almost unbearable for people who had to pass that way. In the push of fish there is not room for them in narrow parts and they are crowded right up to the banks. There: is no doubt of this, and it is among the smaller ancedotes of the kind that one will gather in a trip in that part of the world. | The same journal refers to the story that salmon in our western rivers push each other ashore in their upstream rush, and casts a doubt on this. But It is recognized that last year in England was phenomenally rainy. _ It broke every known record for preceipiâ€" tation. There is an intimation that that superabundance of fresh water may have had its influence in inducing the salmon to go upstream. The Specâ€" tator says that many salmon stay around in the sea and refrain from going into fresh water. It says, too, that it has been proved by marking the fish that within the space of five weeks the two days a salmon of ten and oneâ€" half pounds has been found to grow to twenty and oneâ€"quarter poundc.l Nothing else grows so fast. | that the fish were gradually diappearâ€" ing.

In order to secure as extensive a panorama as possible, six different views on as many plates, measuritg 8.1 inches by 10.5 inches were first taken. From these six plates, which were designcd with a view to being connected to ono another in a continuous series, six enâ€" largements, four feet 11 inches by 6 feet 7 inches in size, were prepared by moeans of an apparatus with a lens 1 foot in diameter.
