A Salt Lake letter in tho st. Louis
Republican snys that Brigham Young is
building a theatre, at his own expense,
which in size and commodiousness, viii
compare favOrably with any theatre in
the West.
It is one hundred and forty-four feet
by eighty; the stage is sixty-four feet
deep; the height from the floor to the
temporary ceiling isfUrty feet, and to the
top of the dome. which is not to ne
finished of this year, sixty-five feet. 1t
has three tiers of galleries and tho usual
inside arrangements. The ediice is built
of stone cut from the mountains. Its
being finished off mostly with white pine,
though some red pine, balsam and &C tom
wood are used. From forty to fifty work.
men are employed, and it is expected that
the building will be completed by NOVenl-
Der. Not much regard is had IN the
beauty Of its architecture. but it has an
appearance of sOlidity and durability like
the mountains which surround il. In
the meantime the actors and actresses,
who are TO play before the king, are on
the spot and studying for their winters
performance. Brigham believes in culti-
yating the home talent, nor dnesiiie need
to send abroad for stars. for the dramatic
talent in the city is really wOnderful,
when we consider how far remUved il is
from the bounds Ofcivilizati0n yet net SO
wonderful when we remember that these
people have gathered together fFnm all
quarters OF the globe. bringing with them
the tastes. characteristics and talents of
their varied natiOnalities. s i!
