had their luncheon brought to them by

UTAH'S NATURAL BRIDGE.


The Secret Of Its Origin Somewhat
Puzzles the Scientists.
What Is thought to he the largest
natural bridge in the world Is that OF
George natural bridge Tie total length
of this great york OF nature is about
200 feet; its wtlth-i e.. the roadway"
is about Thirty five feet; the span in
the clear is about ninety feet. At the
base there flows Il small water course
which, during the hot months. dwin'
dies to a mere ltvulet.
Scientists nre somewhat pcrpIexed to
explain the means by which mature
produced Ills bridge. II Is thought
hardly possible TINT II could have been
created by water erosion, unless. ns
was most unlikely. there wns n very
large and swift stream flowing M the
point where the brook now runs.
Some authorities are inclined TO the
view that this bridge WAS due TO vol
canc action. occurring mt some remote
geological period
Although long known to the Indians.
II was not until about fifteen years ago
that white men became familiar with
the sight OF 1t. Mining proSpectors
were the first of the Whites tu see 1t.
since Ii Is located IN the heart of
very rugged and inaccessible region
