THE GHOST OF AN OCEAN The Echo Mountain Correspondent Enthuses A Sight That night Have Been Witnessed Eons Ago — Arrivals at the Hotels ECHO MOUNTAIN*. May 15.—Those who were fortunate enough to be on tlie mountains last evening enjoyed a unique vision of tbe ghost of an ocean which in remote geological ages rolled over what is now San Gabriel valley, and dashed its waves against tbe rocky buttresses of the Sierra Mudre mountains. This pale giiost of tbe Eons that are gone was In the form of a level ocean of white fog.whicb, gathering along the sea shore gradually rolled inward past town, and hill, and sunny slope, engulfing wide Stretches of landscape In its ] regress, un til its silent waves Mowed into the canyons of the Sierras and formed estuaries of the remarkable Hood. " This sight is well worth a trip alone to EScho mountain," said one enthusiastic lady.
