kings and queens to reward such OF

in war, in politics, or in litera tnre, by
bestowing titles upon them. Occasion

this honor is refused, but the instances
are so rare that when they do occur
they are always thought worthy of
mention.
After the la te German emperor, Fred

he determined to raise some leading
representatives of industry and COM
merce to the peerage.
Herr Krupp, the inventor of the
Krupp cannon, at whose mandatory
eighteen thousand men are regularly
employed, had died short time be-
fore but his son had succeeded to his
business. and the young mans name
was placed by the emperor upon the
role of honor.
When he heard of this, he at once
took train to Berlin and secured al
audience of Prince Bismarck. who was
then chancellor. He insisted that the
prince should ask the emperor to strike
his name from the list. but this Bis

ONCE A GREAT LAKE.

Dry Land in Utah Now Occupied by One
Hundred Towns and villages.
1t was very early known that there
had at one time been great lake on
the site of the present salt lake and
desert in Utah. The early explorers
noted the presence of terraces, fat
topped and often of remarlxa bly, uni
form height, which they knew to be
water-formed. There were bars also,
across the mouths of side streams and
splits, wave-cut cliffs and headlands,
and, indeed, all the phenomena of lake
shores along these terraces. Not only
is there one terrace, but several, which
mark changes in the level of the lake.
Every tourist to Salt Lake City must
have noticed the fat beaches clinging
to the mountain sides and have marked
the fiat desert tract in which the great
salt lake is situated, and, perhaps. have
wondered what it means They may
have noticed the small mountain peaks
rising from the great desert-like islands
in the sea. These were once islands.
