GREAT SALT LAKE DRYING UP DlTornon of Water for Irrigation Seriously . Affects the Lake Lsrel, LOSS OF THREE FEET THIS YEAR Interesting Sammarr ( the Lake Surveys, .Measurements nnd Rec ords Radical Remedies t'raed to Have the Lake. Oreat Salt Lake Is drying up t nn alarmlug rate. The fall In the level of the water this year amounts to three feet and Is traceable to Irrigation ditches diverting tho water of streams which formerly re plenished the lake losses by evaporation. Prof. Marcus E. Jones, In a letter to the Salt Lake Tribune, points out the cause of the alarming losses and suggests a rem edy. He says: "On September 1 the writer made a care ful examination of the old Antelope Island bar, which connects the Island with the mainland, la order to determine more ac curately certain facts In tho past move ments ot the lako and to obtain data for determining the average depth, density, etc.. of the lake. Those who are familiar with the history of tho lake know that on tho actual elevation of this and the Stans bury bars hinge our data during certain critical periods In the paat, especially tho height of the lako In 1849 and 1877. "Tho first recorded observations on tho lake were made In 1843 by Fremont. In 1849-50 Captain Staasbury surveyed and charted It Again In 1869 the King Fortieth Parallel party resurveyed tho lako and charted It. In the early '70's O. K. Gilbert, connected with the United States geolog ical survey, began observations and sur veys, which continued with varytag Inter vals till 1884, when he was recalled to Washington. In 1879 the writer began to study the lake and has continued without Interruption till now. In 1SS9 Gilbert pub lished his conclusions In an elaborate monograph. Karly Measurements. "In tho fall of 1849 or thereabouts Stans bury found that It was all dry land be tween the south point of Antelope Island and the southern mainland with the excep tion of a little channel six Inches deep near the Island and about three miles from the southern point on the eastern side. On October 19, 1877, Gilbert tried to plat tho sama bar by soundings while the bar was under several feet of water and ho says that he readily found Stansbury's llttlo channel ot twcnty-olght years before. He determined Its elevation to be 1.2 feet by the Garfield zero. This, then, Is tho as sumed elevation of the bar In 1849, nnd Mr. Gilbert never seems to have thought It could vary by an inch. On October 1, 1S92, Captain Davis (not L.) sailed over the Antelope bar In his yacht, drawlig three and one-halt feot of water, and found four feet of wator over the bar In the shallowest place. The ac tual lake reading at that day was threo feet above the Garfield zero, a difference of 2.2 feet. The official reading at that time In calm weather gave a difference ot one foot five Inches. It should be remem bered that great care Is taken with the official records to get the truo level In calm weather, so that It thero Is a wind on the day of observation tho actual read ing Is disregarded and the average of pre vious reeding each day for a few days be fore and after ts taken Instead. So we are reasonably certain that the actual level of the bar had changed in fifteen years by one and cne-halt feet, as the yacht could not have gotten over the bar at all had It been at tho same level as It was In 1877. "On September 1, 1900, the writer found the deepest water over the bar to be. four Inches, with the gauge reading 1 foot 1 Inch, show ing that the difference was then .45 foot be t ;n the level of 1877 and 1900, or .45 foot lower than In 1877, but It should be noted that the shallowest place had now moved three miles to the southwest, and Is now near the southern end of the Island. The old shallow spot corresponding to Gilbert's and Stansbury's channel was about two Inches deeper. Through the bar the water was running at a three-mile current to the northward; that Is, from the deep part ot the lake toward the mouth ot the Jordan. Density of the Water. On September 18 the writer took a samplo of the water from the lake after It had been thoroughly mixed up from the deep part ot the lake by a heavy storm and found It went 25 per cent solid matter. This I know to be a fair sample ot the lake wator at that time. By applying the normal Increment due to the fall ot the lake and adding It to the density found by Dr. Gale In 1819 we arrive at the conclusion that the lako In Stansbury's time was 1 foot ft Inch higher than Gilbert assumed It to 'be. Applying the same reasoning to data furnished by n sample of water taken from the lake In June, 1900, by Sheley, the bar should have been 1 foot 4V4 Inches higher than Gilbert's assump tion, but as Sheley's sample was taken dur ing a long calm period It may have been 1 per cent too high, as tests made by me In the past show that dlfferenco between wator near the shore five feet deep and water out In the middle of the lake. Such a variance would make a difference of a foot In tho as sumed height of the bar, and as the dis crepancy Is only a foot, we shall not be able to Use the data ot Sheley, It should be stated, however, that we do not know the oxact date of collecting Gale'H water, and as there was a difference In the level of the lake that year of at least two feet, his sam ple was probably correctly taken and cor rectly analyzed, so that the error In the level of the lake at that time Is probably Gilbert's. Water Diverted. "If we correct the error in the lake curvo required by our more accurato data now at hand, we shall find that It Is not enough to require any marked change In the curvo nor any change In our conclusions as to the causes of the oscillations of Great Silt lake, which are that up to 1890 or thsre obouts tho oscillations wero duo to cli matic changes and that human energies had not yet made themselves felt bo as to be noticeable In the oscillations of tho lake. At that time there was as much water flowing In tho Jordan as now, as far as can be ascertained. At that tlmo there was a small amount of water flowing In the Weber, more than now. (Nw there Is practically none.) The Dear river bad n large amount 'of water flowing In it all the year. Since that time the great Hear river canal has been put In operation and has consumed an Increasing amount of water each year, till It has completely changed the oscillations of the lako, bo that they do not respond to climatic In fluences any more. The writer had hoped ard was led to bslleve from the past history of the lake, that the opening of tho canal would only affect the oscillations of the lake temporarily, but It Is now sovoral years slnco this effect should have worn off. If It ts ever to do so, but the lake continues to tall alarmingly and -we have no reason to hope that, with the canal running, tho lake will ever regain Its old level until the an nual rainfall exceeds nineteen Incches per annum or more, and tho pr-bablliM-'s against such an Increase in the rainfall nre 10 to 1. It Is almost certain that under present conditions nnd present rainfall the lake will eltlior dry up entirely or nearly so, and In the near future. At this rate there will be no bathing at Saltalr In two years and In three years the resort will be high nnd dry, the water of the lake will be saturated with salt and a layer of salt will form all over th bottom of the lake The density ot the lake Is now 1.21 sp. gr., or 23 per cent solid matter. The actual saturation under normal tempera ture ts 31.1 per cent, or a difference .of only 6 per cent. The theoretical saturation point of puro salt Is 34 per cent. Tho re sults hero obtained aro none of them (but he last) theoretical, all the others have been determined by direct experiment on the lake woter; this Includes density or specific gravity, solid contents, saturation point. Many tests have been made by now, though Interesting In finding the nver tho writer In the past on density, covering many years, but thoy will not be given Alarmlna- .Ihrlnkaar. "It wo tako a fair averagoof tho rain fall about 1900 and now (the last few ears), wo find there has, been an Increase n tho normal rainfall of about two inches, which under normal conditions should liavo raised tho lake two feet abovo Its level then, but there has been a fall ot tho lako of three feet, or a total shrlnkago (duo to artificial causes) of flvo feet. In 1S93 thcro was an lncreaso In the rainfall of threo Inches, which should havo raised the lako three feot, but It actually raised It an Inch abovo tho year before. In 1S9C there was an lncreaso In the rainfall of six and ono halt Inches, which should have raised tho lako several feot, but tho lako actually rose about three Inches. During tho present year tho lake will fall about threo feet. It has lost In tho last few years 8,000,000,000 tons of water that has geno up In the air and out ot tho great basin, novcr to return, In addition to the usual evaporation, or enough to Irrigato 1,800 squaro miles for ono year and havo a foot of water left over for every squaro foot of tho whole 1,800 square miles. Fortun ately we havo sufficient data to fix the responsibility for this loss directly upon those producing It. "Tho question now Is, What are the ptoplo of Utah lu general, and Salt Lake City In particular, going to do about It? The railroads of Utah aro not going to stand Idly by and let the greatest attrac tion of Utah dry up, without fixing the responsibility and stopping It If there Is any law In Utah. Salt Lake City will be very foolish If It does not protect Itself, for It Is the most directly concerned both In money and health, as the exposure of the mouth of the Jordan wilt breed sick ness by tho sowage germs becoming dust and being blown back Into the city by the provalllng winds, and by the heavy alka line storms whloh will prevail over the dry bed of the lake and cover us with nlkall at times. The Remedy. To the mind ot the writer there are but two solutions of the problem shut up the Bear river canal and tho extra use of the waters of tho Wcbor, etc., or get wator from without the great basin by a canal from tho Snake or Green river, or both. To close tho canal means a serious loss to a large farming area. To stop the extra uso of the water means distress to many bona fide stttlers, and the whole means a considerable loss to Utah In commerce. The logical way to got water Into the great basin Is to compel those who have caused tho loss to restore It by building a canal to bring In water from without. If this is not done, then the city must- do It, or the state. The loss of this water Is an Injury to tho whole state, as it will de crease the rainfall of the entire state, and In the end ruin more farms than the Bear river canal can ever benefit. Th!s Is why the writer has for some time been quietly trying to Interest the public In getting water Into the great basin. It will not benefit me except as It benefits tho state, as 'I havo no ranch or farm to Irrigate, nor any other special Interest that would bo affected. "The sources from which water can be brought nto tho basin are probably three, tho snake river, Green river, and Ham's fork of the Green river. The last will be the loast expensive, but will not furnish enough water. The other two have an abundance of water that will never be ap propriated except in ouch a way. The bug bear that Smoot has In.cnted (by stopping tne work ny injunctions) will never ma tcrlallze, for the only people who might do such a thing are those of the B:ar river valley, who would never try such a thing for fear that their water might bo con fiscated If, they tried to stop the repair of the waste which they cause. In addition tho water could be brought In In such quantity as to enable enough new farms to start to repay the entire cost of the canal In a few years. A canal the site of the Hear river canal ought to afford the water needed to supply the wasto. Any one of the proposed canals would enter the great basin by way of Bear River valloy. There might be considerable water brought Into tho basin from the south side of the Uln tas, coming over Into tho Weber river. The expense would be considerable."

The threo defects ot eyesight which are most commonly encountered In otherwise healthy persons and which can bo more or less perfectly overcome by means of glasses, says Youth's Companion, are near sightedness, far-sightedness and astigma tism. Thcso are nil Important, for, be sides the discomfort and annoyance of Im perfect sight, the Involuntary efforts which the sufferer makes to ueo better strain the eyes and not only Injure them, but also give rise, through reflex action, to head aches and various nervous disturbances. Ncar-slghtednoss, short-sightedness, or myopia, as It Is variously called, Is a con dition of the eyeball usually a lengthen ing In consequence ot which tho rays of light are brought to a focus In front ot the retina and so tho object Is blurred. This condition may exist from birth, but whenover near objects are looked at. Is usually the result ot too much and too early uso of tho eyes, as In the caso of students, engravers, women who do fine tewlug and so forth. Thus wo may say that putting children at work at some ot tho kindergarten oxercUes, such as perfor ating and drawing, Is In a doubla sense a chort-sighted proceduro, Many near-sighted people refuse to wear glurses, preferring to deprive themselves of sight for everything beyond the nose rather than Injure tholr personal appear ance, as they think. This is another short sighted policy, for, besides losing much of tho Joy of oxistonce which comeB from eoclng the beautiful things about and above us, such persons are very liablo to suffer from Inflammation of the eyes produced by constant strain. A less common defect is long or far slgbtedness, or hypcrmetropla. This Is the opposite of myopln, tho eyeball being fiat tcned or shortened and the rays of light consequently not coming to a focus by tho tlmo they reach the retina. In this caso tho eyo often corrects the defect more or leas successfully by mak ing tho crystalline lens more convex, but It docs this at tho expense ot tho sufferer's ucrvo force, and bo wo often find tlrod and congested eyes, headaches, Indigestion and even serious nervous affections. The effort to correct tho vision Is entirely In voluntary and can bo overcome only by tho fitting of suitable convox glasses. The third and most common defect Is astigmatism. In this condition thero Is some Irregularity of tho surface of the eyo or the lens, by means of which tho Image as It reaches the retina Is distorted. Untreated astigmatism Is a frequent cause ot headache and other nervous disturb ances. The only relief Is the wearing of glasses, at least while reading, writing or TIGERS' TAIL PULLED AGAIN Columbia Fnts in a Knot Juit Behind Whore Cornell Tied One. ROPER FURNISHES THE ONE SENSATION linns Forly-Flve Yards for a Touch down nnd Spoils the Place Kick for Goal and Thus Loses the Game. NEW YORK, Nov. 6.

It was one of tho fiercest games seen hero nnd from tho kick-off was full of fine team work and Individual plays. Tho Interference of both teams was good. Hoper of Princeton fur nished the sensations of tho game. In a scrimmage he got tho ball from Berrien on a fumblo and mado a run of forty-five yards for a touchdown, planting the ball squaroly behind the goal posts. In tho try-at-goal, however, Ropor, who held tho ball for Mills, touched it down prcmnturcly and tho Columbia men rushed on nnd stopped tho plnco kick, then depriving Princeton ot the possibility ot a goal, though this technicality baa seldom been taken ad vantage of.

The theory that a moving train carries along an envcloDO of air Is very Interest ing." said the engineer to a Now Orleans Times man, "and I bellovo there Is a good deal of truth In It. I first hod my atten tion attracted to tho subject by a curious Incident that happened several years ago at a crossing near Birmingham, Ala., where trains pass twice a day at a speed ot about forty miles an hour. Tho tracks are seven feet apart and thcro would seem to bo ample room to stand botween thom tn perfect safety. One afternoon a small fox terrier dog belonging to a section boss was nslccp In the middle space and woke up Jsst as the trains closed In from each side.

Extent of the Business In and Around Xevr York City. Now Is the succulent bivalve In tho hey day of his glory. This Is tho season of the full oyster pall, relates tho New York Herald. Not If years lnivo oysters been bo plentiful; never have they been fatter or sweeter, according to East River Bridge Commissioner Beyle, who Is probably the largest and best known oyster dealer In tho metropolis. One hundred million oysters come to this city each week during tho "It" mouths. Ono hundred thousand a day aro shipped In tho shell from New York to less favored localities. Oysters nre even exported In ever Increasing quantities to Europe. Tho freight charges to Liverpool aro no higher than the lnlaud tariff to St. Louis. Cpnso qucntly about 1,000 bushels a week leavo this port for Europe. In this vicinity oysters are sold by "counts" that Is, by tho 100 or 1,000. In tho Interior they aro sold In bulk, opened, at so much per quart or gallon. To nearby cities, llko liufTalo, oysters are sent In the shell, but to Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis and other moro distant points they aro shipped opened. 1 About 150,000 shucked" oysters nro sent out ot New York each day. Most ot the varieties received here now are Bluo Points, Oak Islands, East River Kills, Itockaways and Buzzard Bay oysters. Bluo Points no longer come from any particular spot, but signify a large, long, firm, swect fiavorcd oyster emanating from varlou" localities. Long Islnnd for Its entlro length and the Connecticut shores of tho sound furnish the locnl market with tho bulk of Its bup ply. While n single femalo oyster will yield from 10,000 to 60,000 young tho Infant mortality among oysters Is most awful. Up to April tho oyster farmer cultivates tho growth of his prospective crop. Prior to that he has procured his seed oysters, from Connecticut, very likely, paying 75 cents a bushel for from 1.500 to 2,000 seed oysters. These Becd oysters nro carefully plnntcd In beds where old oyster and scal lop shells and small scaly rocks wilt af ford them a "clutch," or anchorage They aro planted at the rate of about fifty bushels to tho acre. 1 While oystors are found at different depths, largely depending upon the tem peraturo of the wator, In the United States the majority aro taken In water from fifteen to thirty foot deep, although dredges nro used down to fifteen fathoms. Tho Trench and English oystermen dredge or dinarily down to thirty fathomB. In shal low wntcr oysters aro taken with "tongs," a pair ot very long-handled Iron-toothed rakes that open and Bhut llko a pair ot scissors. In deeper water dredges are used. Theso are coarse meshod nets of very heavy twlno or Iron chatnwork, secured to a rectangular Iron framo, which scrapes over tho bottom. Tho frnmo Is about twlco as wide as It Is high, being usually threo or four feet across. The long sides are sharpened or more generally furnished with large pro jecting teeth. The dredge Is usually at tached by a long chain to a small winch, worked by ono or two men. The larger oyster boats carry two dredges. Tonglng Is usually prosecuted by small beat, dredging from larger vessels of from flvo to fifty tons burdon. The men, often small farmers or fishermen at other seasons of the year, start out early In the morning and rake until they have gathered a sloop load, say seventy bushel baskets. There Is quite an Industry In oyster grow ing at Jamaica and on the Great South bay. In theso waters tho oysters aro grown on bars, where they are raked together and thrown Into baskets when the tide Is low. At high tide the boats are floated over the bars, the baskets lifted Into them and thence con veyed to the Rarltan river. Here one of the tricks of the oysterman's trade Is resorted to. The oysters are put overboard and allowed to drink heartily all night of fresh water. The river fattens and freshens them at the same time, this latter process being all Important because the bl valvo Is by no means a favorite In Its natural saline state. The oysterman after treating his cargo thus proceeds on his way to uansevoort or Fulton market. Most of the halt shells eaten hereabouts are two years old. While oysters are taken at all seasons of the year, thoy are pretty gen erally protected by law during their spawn ing period, from May to September. Tho number of oysters consumed Ib enormous, 30,000,000 bushels being a very conservrtlve estimate ot the quantity consumed annually in this oountry. Their value In round fig ures Is moro than $16,000,000. Maryland leads, with about 12,000,000 bushels a year. Oyster culture In the Unltod States dates back to 1820. The shell heaps of Europe tes tify to the antiquity of oyster fisheries. 'At an early date the Romans cultivated oysters In beds, which are Btlll used for that pur pose. Down nt the foot of Porry street the bulk of tho oyster dealers ot the metropolis have their headquarters. Thero are more than two dozen oyster shops, plain, two-story floating structures. About 100 oyster sloops and schooners come thither every day dur ing the season. Down at Fulton niarkot. on the East river side, about halt as many more vessels deliver their cargoes each morning. Inside the oyster bouses the "sbuckers" sit In a long row and work like mill hands. They aro usually paid SI per 1,000 for open ing oystors, and a good man makes at least S5 a day during tho season. The oysters that aro to bo sent out of town In the shell are packed Into barrels and dispatched on fast freight tralnB. Nearly all tho finest oysters are selected for the local hotels and restau rants, which pay a good price for tho best flavors and firmest varieties. There la a big profit for them at that, as the usual order does not contain more than eight to ten oysters, nnd at 2fl cents, notwithstanding rent, Borvlce, etc., the restaurateur makes money, A curious by-product of the oyster, so to speak, Is tho use of tho shells for manure and for road building. The refuso shells from tho largo oyster canneries nro also burned Into llmo for use In making gas, or are used as n flux In the manufacture of certain kinds of Iron, IiuKKln mill the IIuit-Woitii, Philadelphia Record: "Never nirnln " growled Mr. Hugglns. who has no children.
