He Immediately christened It Lake Bonneville and at ouce gave his name to the great prehistoric sea, its parent It was Brigham Young who, after a plunge Into It called It Great Salt lake, a name It will bear to its approaching and certain end. It is an Indian tradition and there are geological theories that agree with It that Great Salt lake is the mere fragment of a great primeval sea, extending from the Rocky mountains to the Sierra Nevada range. Skeletons of marine animals of prehistoric times, found among the alkali plains of what was once the Great American desert, bear this out. Earthquakes swallowed a portion of this sea, and evaporation removed all but the remaining fragment, say the geologist Di BELL BOY OF- Review your Ben Hurs and hear Flowers, -October lgh Street M.

The fields blossomed and flourished- and" 'Great" Sort lake shrunk and dwindled and lost ita substance to the upper airs. The record of the decline of Great Salt lake Is written upon Its mountains. Time was and geologists point to the bandwriting on the rocks to prove this that the lake overtopped these mountains. Now It lies sluggish at their feet- The different shore lines of the past stand out as distinctly am as evenly as if a surveyors Hue had been ruu along the faceof the ridges Geologists believe that the inland sea was once a fresh water lake.

The theory Is that Utah, lake and Bear lake, fresh water bodies both, were once pari of tt and that they were separated from it by some convulsion of nature. The geological theory is that it did not take the lake long to become Intensely saline after it was locked In. For Its expanse tt was Shallow even then, not more than 160 feet deep at its deepest place, probably not that. The maximum depth today ia 60 feet, and the average Is less than half that At some points one can wade 1 miles from the shore without getting beyond knee depth. There are salt deposits 20 miles from the shore, showing that the shore line at not very recent years extended to that point The height of the lake, 4,000 feet above ea level, aids the work of evaporation and the steady pathetic, hopeless hrinkage of the Great Salt lake.
