GREAT PREHISTORIC LAKE
Lake Agassiz was a body of fresh
water that existed during a late stage
of the glaeial epoch in the valley of
Bed River and extended northward
from the head of that stream for
nearly 700 miles. The area of the
lake at the time of its greatest ex
pansion was about 110,000 square
miles, exceeding the present aggre
gate area of the five great lakes
tributary to the St. Lawrence.
The shore of this ancient lake is
marked by well-defined beaches, and
it is from these that the existence
and the extent of the lake are known.
The lake was named by the geolog
ist Warren Vpham in honor of Louis
Agassiz, who was the first to make
a systematic study of the glaciers
and glacial phenomena—Northern

PAPERS RESENT EPITTHET
LONDON, Sept. 27—A place of
prominence second only to the budget
is given by the morning pa[>ers to
the Archibald correspondence and
most of them comment upon it edi
torially.
"No apologies.” says the Chron
icle, "can wipe out the stain or ex
plain away the insults to the Ameri
can people— those idiotic Yankees'
as Capt. von Papen describes them.”
The Standard says:
"The Yankees are not so ‘idiotic’
as the superior Capt. von Papen
thinks aud are less impressed than he
expects with the -heroic’ deeds of
the Germans, witch have presented
themselves chiefly in the form of
killin non-combatants.”
[GREATEST BATTLESHIP ATLOAT
TO BE SENT TO THE
DARDANELLES
NEW YORK, Sept. 24—The super -
1 dreadnaught Barnham of the British
navy, whose keel was laid in 1914.
the most powerful battleship afloat,
is about to be commissioned, accord
ing to word brought to New YTork
today by passengers on the steamship
Orduna.
The Barham is now fitting out at
Liverpool and probably will be In
service within six weeks. It was re
ported that she would be sent at once
to the Dardanelles.
The Cunard liner Aquitania, which
some time ago was fitted out as an
auxiliary cruiser, but was found to
be unsuited for such service because
of her light construction, has been re
fitted as a hospital ship and sent to
j the Dardanelles.
I The Olympic, it was said, also is
fitting out as a hospital ship, after
having done several months duty as
a troop ship between England and the
Dardanelles. The Mauretaina, sister
ship of the ill-fated Lusitania, was at
Liverpool when the Arduna sailed,
abort to depart with troops for the
Dardanelles.
