Great Salt Lake has for number OF
years been steadily sinking. Several
causes for the decline have been sug
geeted, although all are confessed TO
be more or less a conjecture. Tho
lake is subject to cycles of change
which correspond to the variations Of
rainfall. The decline has also been at
tributed to the diverting of large
quantities OF water from the streams
which feed the lake to enrich the az
ricultural and grazing interests. The
cutting down of forests is thought to
have Influenced these streams. The
decline in the value of Great Salt Lake
property is OF SO great Importance
that the United States Geological sur
vey has been asked to investigate the
matter.

An astonishing sentence OF ten
years penal servitude was inflicted
on a thirteen-year-old boy in England
lately. He was convicted OF pushing
a smaller boy into a reservoir where
he was drowned after robbing him
OF watch that he wanted. The judge
regretted that he was not a year older
so that he might have been sentenced
TO death for murder In England,
however. the case has provoked a dis
cussion as to whether there is no bet
