turning red about two or three times every ten years It is a pretty lake like most of the sheets of water in that picturesque country and Its peculiar freak is attributed to a dis position to celebrate the slaughter of the Burgundians under Charles tl j Bold on June 21 1470 but the Frem h say that it blushes for the conduct of lhe Swiss Avho in that battle gave the Burgundians no quarter This phenomenon of course has its legend The old fishermen of the lake who catch enormous fish called sllures that weigh between twenty live and forty kilograms say when they see the waters of the lake reddening that it is the blood of the Burgundians As a matter of fact some of the bodies of the Burgundians killed in the battle were thrown Into the lake while others were tossed into a grave filled with quicklime This historical recollection angered the Burgundian soldiers of the victorious armies of the republic in 179S so much that they destroyed the monument raised in honor of their compatriots who fell heroically in that battle and Henri Martin very justly reproached them for that piece of van dalism It would hardly do to attribute the reddening of the waters of the lake to tho blood of the soldiers of Charles the Bold The coloring is due simply to the presence in large quantities of little aquatic plants called by naturalists Os cillatoria rubescens The curious thing about it is that Lake Morat is the only lake in which this curious growth is developed THE TURKISH KAIK It More Closely KeseiijJilcs the Gon dolii Tlinn Any Other Craft Crawford the author to whose skill
