Attraction! tad L Climate Garfield Beaoh and Other Places of Interest The city of Salt Lake has a fame which roaches around the world: The population is about 55,000, and is In-creasing at a rapid rato. It is situated at the baso of the Wasatch mountain in a lovely valley, rich in agricultural re-sources and is eighteen miles distant from Great Salt Lake. Its elevation ahove sea level is 4,300 feet. There are many points of interest to visitors in the city aud near it. Hero are some cf them: Tha Tempi. This magnificent cieara-whit- e jrranlte Structure was began April 8, 1853. It is lOOxSOO feet, the walls are 100 feet bigh, and tho towers, when comploted, will bo 300 feet height. Over J3.I50O.OOO have been expended on the toiuple, and It is now nearing completion. In tbo same square with the temple is the spa-cious building called Tba Tabarnaala. Here aro held tho services of the mor-mon church and those aro attended every Sunday by an immense, congrega-tion of people, both mormon and gen-tile. The structure is oval in shapo, seventy-liv- e feet high and y.ri0xlGO feet in length aud breadth. It has a seating rapacity of 12,000 people, and here may bo heard what is claimed to be the liu-e- st organ in tho world. Patti once sang in the tabernacle, and demonstrated that Its acoustic powers are very line. Tba Gardo Iloaaa st Amelia palace, was built by Brighara Young who willed that it could be the residence of bia favorite wife. Amelia Folsoia Young, but since his death it has leen used as the official residence of dignitaries of the church. Mrighara Yonag'a KaalSaaaa known as the Bee-Hiv- e and the Lion House are plructures, curious from associations. These are situated in what was once Brighaui Young's domain, all of which has passed lutj other hands, save the largo lot in in which isBrigham Young's grave. rroapaet Hill with its lookout tower commands a splendid view of the city and its sur-roundings. Tba Tithing Baildlne possesses interest as being the general depot for taxes oollected bytho mormon church from its disciples. . Mbart Far. in the sou! heastern portion of the eitv is a beautiful resort aud can be reached by rapid trausit trains. Tha Chantbar mt Cammerea, on' Second South street is visited by those who take au interest in the com-mercial standingof the city. There are several large cases containing speci-mens of Utah's mineralogy which at-tract much attention. Suit Lake Tbratar. This latter place of amusement was built by Brigliain Youug over thirty rears ago. It is a large and beautiful temple and comfortably arranged. iiitmbl; Hall, sear the temple, ia used in winter for worship by the mormons, the taberna-sl- e being too large to admit of proper beating. Assembly hall is 120x68 feet, and cost $150,000. The ceiling is dec-orated which church pictures among '.hem the Angel Moroni disclosing the hiding pluee of the golden plates to Joseph bmith. Camp Douglai. three miles east of the eitv and over 400 feet above it is beautifully laid out in tho midst- of lawns and orchards, and the barracks and houses of the ollioers are built of stone. The post commands a wide view of the city aud beyond where Great Salt Lake lies molten sil-ver at the foot of the westorn moun-tains. lleck'i Hot Spring! are in tho norl hern part of the city about threo' miles from tho business cnter. They issue from the base of the moun-tains, and are regarded as s very valua-ble aid in cases of rheumatism dyspep-sia and scrofulla. The waters are used both internally aud externally, and there is an excellent bath house and necessary appointment for the comfort of patients. Tka Waraa Satphar Springs are between the Hot Springs and tho city, about one mile from the postoffice. There is a good hotel and comfortable bath house in connection with the springs, and they can be reached by street railway. Tba Mouatalas are unsurpassed iu magnificent conons. and at least a dozen of tho grandest are within reach of tho city. These invite the tourist to spend days, weeks or months among their wild recesses to lish, to hunt, to scale the peaks and ridges, and to gather wild flowers by the mossy springs, beneath the shade ol umbrageous pines. Big Cottonwood cnuou should be seen by every tourist. Here are lake Mary and Martha from which Hows the turbulent Cottonwood river; and at tho baso of the mountains are lakes Blanche, Florence and Lilian. Besides these are Mills creek, Parley's Emigration, and City Creek canons, all extremely picturesque and delightfully romantfo. Plaaeaat brlvoa abound in scores around the outskirts of the city; along the quiet country roads, and' through the lanes dividing meadows of rich green alfalfa and fields of grain; while the majestic mountains aro'never entirely lost sight of. From under the branches of trees and abovo hedges of the wild dog-ros- e glimpses are. caught of snow covered peaks. A drive to Fort Douglas, and then a mile further out to the mouth of Emigration canon is almost delightful. It was here that t he sight of tho mormon pioneers was first made glad by the vast expanse of Salt Lake valley suddenly burst upon them, on the 21th of J uly, 1847. Tin Graal Bait Lake. "I think," says Ernest Ingersoll, "fo persons realize how wonderfully, strangely beautiful this island sea is," and speaking of its sunsets Phil Robin-- son had eaid: "iVhero have I not seen Bunsets, by land and sea, in Asia, Af-- riea, Europe and America, and where can I say I have ever seen more won- - dcrous coloring, more electrifying nfTeors than in the sunset on tho U re-i- t Silt Lake of Utah." Salt Lake is as oeauti-- I ful a sheet of water as can bo found anywhere. The waves are bright blue rgreen.and asthey dance on iki surface at would be hard to tell which color pre-vails. It is dotted with beautiful Islands, and it afTords the finest salt water in the world. I |
