In Utah, and changed Its name. It ia now known as the Zlou National monument, which la Immeasurably bet ter from every point of view. The old name, besldesuhelng hard to pronounce and remember, was obscure In origin and was never used except officially. The new name Is that In popular use. Besides, it crystallizes the romantic history of its amazingly beautiful valley ; the surrounding coun try was settled by Mormons many years ago, and this difficult canyon was chosen as a refuge In the event of Indian attack, and called "Little" Zlon to differentiate If from "Big" Zlon, which was Salt Lake City. Since then It has universally been called Zlon The enlargement of the Zlon Nation al monument follows naturally upon Its recent thorough exploration and the "discovery" of. outlying areas of alto gether extraordinary scientific Interest and scenic grandeur. That Its fantas tic cliffs, Its sensational coloring, und Its romantic conformation will bring It " national popularity as a resort Is mani fest destiny. It has been called, for good reasons, "the little Grand Canyon" aud "the desert Yosemlte," but It is m> miniature of either; its Individuality is marked. Remarkable Variety of Color. The original monument was created by proclamation In 1909, but, being well outside the highways of ordinary travel, It was not thoroughly explored until within the last two years. Offi cial Investigation and action promptly followed. "Among the numerous geologic fea tures of Interest," wrote Secretary. Lftne to the President, "two deserve more than passing notice. The Ver milion Cliff, so culled because of Its brilliant color, famous, since the days of Major Powell's exploration, as one^ of the most remarkable In the world, an escarpment more than 100 miles long and so precipitous timt it cnn b? scaled In few places, passes through this monument. It consists of red sandstone 1,000 to 2,000 feet thick and overlaid by 1,000 feet of gllstenlug white sand. These two form single cliffs nearly 8,000 feet high. These re-, markable walls bear evldeuce that the sand gathered In a desert In ages long past ? that here was a great prehistoric American Sahara. "The second feature of unusual in terest lies Immediately above the sand, for the desert was destroyed by the In cursion of sea water, which cohered the drifting sand and burled it beneath gypsum and beds of limestone In which were entombed the shells and bones of jwft-ahloaalg." Mighty Cleft in Mountain*. The principal canyon, which Is more than 15 miles long and varies from 50 feet wide In the Narrows to 2.500 feet wide In other portions, Is a mighty cleft, as If the mountain had been violently riven asunder. The wnlls are' inconceivably carved Into domes, half domes, colonnades, and temples-? forms which appealed strongly to the religious Imagination of the early Mor mons, who gave them names which ap peal strongly to the Imagination of to day's tourist. The tortuous outlying canyons and monumental rock formations added by the new proclamation make an area as remarkable in its particular way ?p the Grand Canyon. There are several neighboring natural bridges of mag nificence. Looking Down Zion Canyon. MAKING OF THE YELLOWSTONE How Its History is Written in Its Plateaus, Mountains, Petrified Trees and Lava. To comprehend what we have In the Yellowstone, we must begin with Its making. The entire region Is of vol canic origin. The mountains around It on both sides and the mountains within it are products or remainders of great volcanoes of the far past ; and | the groat plateaus, from which spring i Its geysers and hot springs and through ' whose forests now roam so many wild animals, are composed of the ash and disintegrated lavas which were once | ejected from these volcanoes. Of course the plains are now all d??ep *ith> soil. Hut surh evidences of the past as the black volcanic glass of th^ Obsidian Cliff and the fantastic whorled lava rocks of Mount Washburn are plain tt> the least Instructed eye. One particularly fascinating glimpse of Yellowstone's tempestuous past la afforded In the petrified for??st of the Specimen Ridge neighborhood, where many levels of upright petrified trunks may be found alternating, like the lay em In a cake, with levels of lava ; which plainly shows that, after the flrst forest grew on the volcano's slope and was engulfed by a fresh run of lava, enough time elapsed for a sccond forest to grow upon that level; and that this, In turn, was engulfed with new lava to make the level for another forest, and so on. There Is a cliff 2,000 feet high composed wholly of these, al ternate levels of engulfed forests and the lavas which engulfed them. In magnificent contrast with the vol canic plateau and Its border of volcanic mountains there rises from the plains, HO miles south of the park, one of the most abrupt and stupendous outcrop pings of granite In the Western hem isphere. From the western shore of Jackson lake the Teton mountains lift their spired peaks 7.000 feet In appa rent perpendicular. Many glaciers rest upon their shonltlers. Their climax Is the Grand Teton, whose altitude is 13, 747 feet. Thus does the Yellowstone run th? scenic gamut. Once .Tacksons Hole, as this reglor Is still popularly called, was the refuge for the hunted desperado of mountain, plain, and city. In the recesses of these granite monsters he was safe from pur suit, and the elk herds of the plalr provided him food. Rut that plctur pxqne period of American life has pM? ed with the warrlnj? Indians, who atM j hore found N-mporary safe retreat. i Cut nvc-a wis: keep fresh manj [days if th??ir Htfu* ?w? inserted la 8 mixture of churco.il and sand. X) LEGAL ADVERTISING.
