A LAKE OF HOAF-SUDH.For bitterness and promiscuous meanness the waters of Mono lake surpass those of the Dead sea. They contain so much alkali that on a windy day the lake is a regular tub of soap-suds. The I writer lias aeon a wall of lather five feet high along the whole ot' that shore ■ against which the waves wore beating, j Occasionally the wind would take up a bunch of this lather as big as ft bushel j basket and carry it several hundred feet i inland. So buoyant are the waters of the lake that quite a party of men may navigate them ou a raft: made of four orfive dry cottonwood poles.—San F'ran-; cirtco Chronicle.
