Senator STANFORD. 500. 600 Tomb.

The architect who planned the mag
niiicent mausOlesIm Of Senator Stanford
at san Francisco SAYS that it will be the
most elaborate repository for the dead
ever built in this country. In style Of
architecture the simple but effective
methods Of the ancient Egyptians will be
followed. Massive imperiahable granite,
Of a light shade Of gray, with an interior
Inning If the finest Italian marble, will
be employed. The item Of expense has
not been considered. the designers being
given carte blanche as 10 cost and di-
rccied 10 secure the best Of material and
workmanship TO be had.
The total OUTLAY necessary TO complete
tho tomb and prepare the surroundings
will reach $780, 900, and may considera-
bly, exceed that amount. The item of
transportation alone will be large one,
as the granite will all be shipped from
Vermont and the marble from Italy.
The site selected is beautiful four acre
plot in the senator's grounds, just ait-
side Of San Francisco. 1t already con-
tains handsome shrubbery, and occupies
an altitude commanding a magnificent
view Of the bay. A driveway sixty feet
wide will he made, circling around a
slight elevation. on the brow Of which
will be the tomb. The ant Of the land
scape gardener will be employed TO beau
tify the approaches and render even more
effective the vistas Of the park. New

square mines. Its maximum depth Is
about fifty feet and its mean depth ap
proXimately fifteen feet. These recen
changes in area are due 10 small varia-
uons in climate, similar in character 10
the changes which produced the great
expansions and cOntractions Of the lake
in ancient times. With change in vol
ume there is change in density; that is,
the strength of the brine increases with
decreased area, and decreases when the
lake expands. In 1850 its waters con-
tanned about twenty two parts, by weight,
Of saline matter in solution TO 100 parts
Of water In 1869 the saline matter
had decreased to little less than Is and
in 1878 10 a little more than IL per cent.
This change in salinity Was accompanied
by increased area.
The waters Of the ocean contain $40
per cent. of total salts in solution. Great
Salt lake. therefore, IN 1850, was six
times as saline as the ocean. Like the
ocean, too. it holds many substances in
solution; the principal ones are common
salt, or sodium chloride, and sodium sui
phate; besides these there aTe small per
centages Of potassium, mas1 esium, etc.
The influence of temperature on the
solublity of certain saline substances is
well illustrated by this dead ss Of Utah.
In summer its waters are clear and
transparent, but as cold weatlr comes
on it becomes milky or oIllescent,
owing 10 the precipitation O. sodium
sulphate in an extremely fine condition.
In the depth Of winter, when the remper-
ature OF the atmosphere above tlle lake
falls far below freezing, an immense
quantity Of sodium sulphate is precipi-
ta,el and Is thrown ashore by the waves
until thousands of tons accumulate on
the beach When the temperature rises,
the salt thus precipitated is again dis
solved. This natural process Of frac-
tional crystallization produced by lower
ing Of temperature, is instructive, and
sh ull suggest 20 those who are attempt
ing TO manufacture salt in Utah prac-
teal method of treating the natural
brines in order to obtain common salt
fre,. from solium sulphate. Lake Sewer
is also highly saline, and during the arid
season sometimes eyaporates TO dryness.

Great salt Lake the Largest survivor OF

The largest Of the ancient lakes at

Great salt lake is now situated. The

Lake Bonneville overflowed northward

which flows into the Columbia. At va
rinus stages its waves and currents
formed terraces and gravel bars on the
mountain slopes which confined It. These
slih remain rs fresh and perfect as when
they were formed, and are in part the
records from which the geologist has
been able 10 determine the history Of the
ancient lake. We know that il rose with
many fluctuations until it had depth OF
about 800 feet, but did not overflow.
Then change Of climate caused 1t TO
contract its borders, and possibly to be-
come completely desiccated. In the
lower stages Of this desiccaiion II was
broken into separate water bodies winch
