Show NINETEEN HIIEO' TAKE DIP II LIE Wrefchell Service at Saltair jJoaeii Still Given the Patron's. Daihlng In tho Great Salt Lako was Indulged In yesterday by about 1000 people, peo-ple, and tho water has not been equaled before this season. The teraporaturo was 86, nnd as tho sun was at no time during tho afternoon In evidence, a dip in the brlno was very pleasant. A heavy windstorm set .In about 3:30 and for about half an hour blow tho waves In extra high. Most of jtho bathers were frightened from tho writer when tho storm sot In, but a number of mon stayed In to enjoy being dashed about by tho high waves. iue Biorm, in a numoer or instances, played havoc with things which had been left In tho bath-houses. The wind Bwcpt through the cracks nnd transoms of the rickety dressing-rooms nnd blew the smnll pieces of wo'nrIng apparel about like chaff. Hats, neckties, dollars and other small articles of apparel mado their way out through the big open transoms and doors, many of which wore forcod open with tho llrst gust of wind. Many complaints of losses wero heard. Tho water was Just right, and, but for tho exceptionally poor service given the patrons in the line of bathing suits nnd dressing-rooms, the bathing would havo been thoroughly enjoyable. Tho ragged suits, tho scarcity of keys, the splintered nnd broken condition of the boards over which tho bathers liuve to walk In their bare feet to tho stairs leading to the lake, thp napklil-slze towels, tho lack of privacy between bathrooms, and tho numerous nu-merous other things which aro furnished the bathers after they, have paid their 25 cents for a pleasant bath, still exist. |
