Attraotiou ud Climate Garfield Beaoh and Other Flaoei of Interests The city of Salt Lake has a faraa which reaches arouud the world. The pooulation is about 55,000, and is in-creasing at a rapid rate. It is situated at the base of the Wasatch mountain in a lovely valley, rich in agricultural re-sources and is eighteen miles distant from Great Salt Lake. Its elevation above sea level is 4,350 feet. There are many points of interest to visitors in the city and near it. Hers are some of them: The Tempi. This magnificent cream-whit- granite Structure was began April 6, 1853. It If 100x200 feet, the walls are 100 feet high, and the towers, when completed, wiil be 200 feet height. Over $8,500,000 have been expended on the temple, and It is now nearing completion. In the same square with the temple is the cious spa- building called Tb. Taberdaela. Here are held the services of the mor-- nson church and those aro attended every Sunday by an immense oongrega- - tiou of people, both mormon and gen- tile. Tho, structure is oval in shape, eventy-fiv- e feet high and 250x150 feet in length and breadth. It has a seating capacity of 12,000 people, and here may be heard what is claimed to be the lin-es!. Organ in the world. Patti once sang in the tabernacle, and demonstrated that Its acoustic powers are very tine. The Qu7do Hoa.ee or Amelia palace, was built bv Brigh&ra lung who willed that it could be the residence of his favorite wife. Amelia Folsom Young, but since his death it Ml been used as tho official residence of dignitaries of the church. Brlghane tonne's Kesldaaae kuown as the Bee-Hiv- e and the Lion House are old fashioned structures, curious from associations. These are situated in what was once Brigham Young's domain, all of which has passed Into other hands, save the large lot In in which is Brigham Young's grave. 1'ro.p.ot Hill with its lookout tower commands a splendid view of tho city and its sur-roundings. Tha Tlthlac rtmldlnr possesses interest as being the general depot for taxes collected by the mormon church from its disciples. Liberty Park. in the southeastern portion of the city is a beautiful resort and can be reached by rapid transit trains. Th Chamber uf Commerce. cn Second South street is visited by those who take an interest in the com-jr.erci-standing of the city. There aro several large cases containing speci- mens of Utah's mineralogy which at-- -- tract much attention. 1 Salt Lake Thaatar. This latter place nr amusernent was built by Brigham Young over thirty Ceare ago. It is a large and beautiful and comfortably arranged. Aaaambly Hall, near the temple, is used in winter for worship by the mormons, the laberna-Bl-being too large, to admit of proper heating. Assembly hall is 120x68 feet, and cost $150,000. Tho ceiling is dec-orated which church pictures among them the Angel Moroni disclosing the biding place of the golden plates to Joseph Smith. Camp Doug-lae-. three miles east of the city and over 400 feet above it is beautifully laid out in the midst of lawns and orchards, and the barracks and houses of the officers . are built of stone. Tho post commands a wide view of the city and beyond where Great Salt Lake lies molten ail-- rer at the foot of the western mouR- - tains. Raok'a Hot SprlQga are in the northern pari of the city about threo miles from the business center. They issue from the base of the moun-tains, and aro regarded as a rery valua-ble aid in cases of rheumatism dyspep-i- a and scrofulla. The waters are used both internally and externally, and there is an excellent bath house and necessary appointment for the comfort p." patients. Tha Warm Hnlphar RprlDga are between the Hot Springs and tho city, about one mile from the postoflice. There is a good hotel and comfortable bth house in connection with the pnngs. and they can ba reached by it et railway. Th Monatalaa are unsurpassed in magnificent conons. and at least a dozen of the grandest are within reach of the city. These invito the tourist to spend days, weeka or months among their wilil recesses to fish, to hunt, to scale the peaks and (Jdges, and to gather wild flowers by the mossy springs, beneath the shade ol umbrageous pines. big Cottonwood canon should be seen by evorv tourist. Here are lake Mary and Martha from which flows the turbulent Cottonwood river; and at the base of the mountains are l:ikes Blanche, Florence and Lilian. Besidei these are Mills creek, Parley's Emigration, and City Creek canons, all extremely picturesque and delightfully romantfe. Plaaaaal Drlvaa abound in scores around the ourskirts of the city, along the quiet counu roads, and through the lanes dividing meadows of rich green alfalfa and fields of grain; while the majestic mountains are never entirely tost sight of. From under the branches of trees and above hedges of the wild dog-ros- e glimpses are caught of snow covered peaks. A drive to Fort Douglas, and then a milo further out to the mouth of Emigration (BOB is almost delightful. It was here that the sight of the mormon pioneers wa first made glad by the vast expanso of Salt I.ako valley suddenly burst upon them, on the 24th of July, 47. Tha Oraal Salt Laka. "I think," says Ernest Ingersoll, "few persons realize how wonderfully, strangely beautiful this island sea is," and speaking of its sunsets Phil Robin-son had said: "Where have I not seen sunsots, by land and sea, in Asia, Af-rica, Europe and America, and where can I say I have ever seen more won-dero-coloring, more electrifying effects than in the sunset on the GTet Salt Lake of Utah." Salt Lake is as oeauti-fn- l a sheet of water as can be found avnywhere. The waves are bright blue rgreen.and as they dance on its surface It would be hard to tell whioh color pre-rail- It is dotted with beautiful blands, and it affords the finest salt aval- in the wuxld. i p WANTED ! 1 .HORSES A1YD j COWS. r I have 100 Lots in different parts of the City that I want to trade for Brood Mares and Cows.
