Force Of It's Heavy, Sluggish Waves In
a Strong Gale.

Force Of It. Heavy, Sluggish Waves In
a Strong Gale.
There was recently afforded a
convincing proof Of the weight Of
the waters of the Great Salt lake.
A strong gale of wind was blow
ing over the lake and driving it,
surface into low. whitecapped
ridges, while along the shore the
foam lay like flat banks Of newly
fallen snow. If that gale had
passed across lake of fresh water
of like extent it would unquestion-
ably have produced such an agita-
ton of it's surface that navigation
in small boats would have been diff
ficult, if not highly perilous.
But the waters of the Great Salt
lake, although driven into ridges, as
just remarked, showed curious re-
sistance to the wind, and the waves.
rising to only slight elevation,
moved with an appearance Of leth-
argy that the eye could not but no
tice.
Yet there was an immense mo-
mentum stored up in those low.
heavy, slowly moving waves. Ven
turing into the water at point
where the depth did not exceed four
feet, the observer found that it was
impossible to stand against them.
The curious buoyancy of the
water, containing % per cent of
salt in solution, increased the help
lessness of the bather. He was not
submerged, but was lifted and car
ried like a cork.
It would probably have been i'm
possible to dive through an oncom-
ing wave after the manner prac-
ticed by bathers along the Atlantic
coast. In the Great Salt lake peo-
pie are not drowned through sink
ing, but strangled while still afoat.
The bitter water may enter the air
passages with fatal effect, but the
body floats until it reaches the shore
or is picked up.-Harper's Weekly.
