GarBeld Beach and Other Summer Resorts, The city of Salt Lake bas a fame whtc reaches around the world. The population is ahout 66,000, and Is increasing at a rapid rate. It Is situated at the base of the Wasatch mountains In a lovely valley, rich in agricul-tural resources and Is eighteen miles distant frara Great Bait Lake. Its elevation above sea level Is 4,350 feet. There are many pointi nf lnterent to visitors In the city and near It. Here are some of them : The Temple. This magnificent cream-whit- e granite struc-ture was begun April 8, 18611. It is lOOxJMOfect, the walls are 100 feet high, and the towers.when completed, will be 800 foot In height. Over H,M0,000 have been expended on the Temple, and It is now ncarim? completion. In the same square with the temple is the s building callud The Tabernacle. Here are held the services of the Mormon church, and these are attended every Sunday by Immense congregations of people, both Mormon and Gentile. The structure Is oval ID shape, seventy-liv- e font high snd IffOxlH) feet In length and breadth. It has a seating capa-city of lli.OIJO people, and here may be heard what, Is claimed to be the finest organ In the world. Pattl ouce sang in the tabernacle, and demonstrated that Its acoustic powers are very fine. The Gardo House, or Amelia Palace, was built by Bripham Young who willed that It should be the residence of his favorlto wife, Amelia Folsom Yountt. but since his death It bas been lined as the official residence of dignitaries of the church. Ilrlgham Young-'- s Residences, known as the e and the Lion House are structures, curious froman-soclation- These are situated in what was once Hrigham Young's domain, all of which has passed into other hands, save the large lot In which is Brig-ha- Young's Grave. This can be reached by passing through the Eagle Gate, an archway tu the old mud wall which at one time encompassed Brlgham's pri-vate property. One or two of the prophet's wives repose beside his last resting place. A slab of granite covers the grave and there Is space left near by for the graves of his other wives. Deseret Museum. This institution Is situated on Houth Temple street, directly opposite Temple square. It contains a large number of interesting curios-ities, chiefly pertaining to the early history of Utah. It Is well worth a vlstt. Prospect Hill Iwlth its lookout tower commands a splendid 'view of the city and Its surroundings. The Tithing Building possesses Interest as being the general depot tor taxes collected by the Mormon ohurch from its disciples. Liberty Park. In the southeastern portion of the city Is a beautiful resort and can be reached by rapid transit trains. The Chamber of Commerce, on Second Bouth street, is visited by those who take an Interest in the commercial standing ol the city. There are several large canes con-taining specimens of Utah's mineralogy which attract much attention. The Grand Opera House, on Second Bouth street, is under able manage-ment and Is handsomely and comfortably fitted up. Borne of the best talent in the coun-try is constantly passing between the Atlantic and the Pacific, and Bait Lake City is always made a stopping place tor performance!, either the opera house or the Salt Lake Theater being selected. This latter place ef amuse-ment was built by Brlgham Young over thirty years ago. It Is a large and beautiful temple and Is comfortably arranged. Assembly Hall, near the temple, Is used In winter far worship by the Mormons, the tabernacle being too large to admit of proper heating. Assembly hall Is laOxtW feet, and cost !W.0O0. The celling Is dec-orated with church pictures, among them the Angel Moroni disclosing the hiding place t the golden plates to Joseph Smith. The Natatorluna is a large circular bathing house, the renter of which, under a glass roof, la a swimming pool. The water is brought in pipes from Beck's Hot Springs. There are also a large number of bath rooms. Electric Street Cars conneot with every point of Interest in the city. The system Is new and theappolntments good. Kapld transit 1b assured. Camp Douglas, three miles east of the city and over 400 feet above It, ts beautifully laid out In the midst of lawns and orchards, and the barracks and houses of the officers are built of stone. The Eost commands a wide view of the city and where Great Bait Lake ties like molten silver at the foot of the western mountains. Beck's Hot Springs are in the northern part of tht city about three miles from the business oenter. They Issue from the base of the mountains, and are regarded as a very valuable aid in cases of rheumatism, dyspepsia and scrofula. Tht waters are used both in-ternally and externally, and there Is an excellent bath bouse and necessary appointments for the comfort of patients. The Warm Sulphur Springs are betwnhe Hot Springs and the city, about one mile from the postoftlce. There is a good hotel and comfortable bath house In connec-tion with the springs, and they can be reached by street railway. The Mountains are unsurpassed tn magnificent canyons, and at least a dozen of the grandest are within reach of the oity. These invite the tourist to spend days, weeks or months among their wild recesses to fish, to hunt, to Bcale tha peaks and ridges, and to gather wild flowers by the sides of mossy springs, beneath the shsde of umbrageous pines. Big Cottonwood canyon should be seen by every tourist. Here are lake Mary and Murtha from which flows the turbulent Cottonwood river; and at the base of the mountains are lakes Blanche, Florence and Lillian. Besides these are Mills creek, Parley's, Emigration, and City Creek canyons, all extremely picturesque and delightfully romantic. Pleasant Drives abound In scores around the outskirts of the city; along the quiet country roads, and through the lanes dtvldlng meadows of rich green alfalfa and fields of grain; while the majestic mountains are never entirely lost sight ot. From under the branches of trees and above hedges ot the wild dog-ros-glimpses are caught of snow. covered peaks, A drive to Fort Douglas, and then a mile further on to t he mouth of Emigration canyon Ik most delightful. It was here that the Bight of the Mormon pioneers was Bret made gl;id by the vast expanse of Salt Lake valley sud-denly bursting upon them, en the Mth of July -? The Great Bait Lake. "I think." says Ernest Iugersoll, "few per- sons realise how wonderfully, strangely beautiful this inland sea ts," and speaking of Its sunsets Phil Kublnson has said: "Where have I not seen sunsets, by land and se a. In Asia, Africa, Europe and America, and where can 1 say I have ever seen more wonderous coloring, more electrify tna effects than tn the sunset on the Great Bait Cake of I'tali." Salt Lake Is as lautlfnl a sheet of wator as can be found anywhere. The waves are a bright blue or Rreen, and as they d:uiee on Its Rurfiioe It would be hard to tell which color prevails, it Is dotted with beautiful Islands, aud It affords tha finest salt water bathing In the world. Garfield Reach Is within easy distance of the cltv, betni but eighteen miles of a ride by train. Here is foucl every lururv and comfort for a dip in the mysterious sea. and also all the things for the coimort of the imwr man.

The manswmeut of the accommodations at Uarneld Xleach is under the direction of the Union Pacific Ball-wa- y company, as is that at Lake Park under the supervision of the Rio Grande West-ern. This resort Is north of the oity, about half way between Bait Lake and Ogden, and Is much frequented by visitors, it is similar in at tractiveness to Garfield, and Is well worth a 'v'slt, that Massachusetts has surrendered the place she has so long held as second among tho states in numerical strength to Texas, which had at that date 10,918 to 10,840 in Massachusetts. Now York at the same date had 13,486. Tennessee comes next to Massachusetts with a membership of 7,362. Pennsylvania stands fifth on the list with 7,151, and Kentucky Bixth with 7,110.
