White Peaks aud DARK Canyons.

Colorado is a land of dark contrast, OF
brilliant lights, of intense shadows; a land
where heights and depths make obvious
the meaning OF the word antithesis; a land
where every mood in mind can find an
answering mood In nature. The high
white minarets of the mountains, from
whose slender pinnacles float the wind
blown banners of the snow, appeal with
silent eloquence to the lofty aspirations of
the soul; the sombre chasms cleft by Titan
forces through granite hearted hills,
within whose depths dark shadows throng
and swirling torrents dash, speak to the
heart a language that thrills. inspires and
awes. 1t does not follow that these
glories of white peaks and these glooms
Of dark canyons preclude the pleasant
intervals, the sunny meadows or the
secluded hooks, wherein the tired mind
or wearied body may find peaceful rest
and refuge from turmoil and toll. To one
making a journey in Colorado, New
Mexico or Utah. or taking a trans
continental tour from East to West, or
nee versa, the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad offers accommodations equal in
elegance, convenience and luxury to those
OF any other line with the added attrac-
tons OF the unrivalled scenery along Its
line. Astounding in a magnificent opulence
Of the white peaks and dark canyons. The
month Of November, 1890, wit
messed one of the most important
improvements in railroad facilities
that has yet been made in Colorado
and the West. The completion of the
standard gauge OF the Denver & Rio
Grande railroad from Denver. Colo, over
the mountains to Ogden, Utah. which
FIVE years ago was deemed an impossi
bllity, is certainly a triumph of daring
and engineering skill. The new line is BY
way of Leadville, tunneling Tennessee
! pass. threading the canyons of the Eagle
and Grand rivers. giving a view of the
Mount OF the Holy Cross en- route. taking
its trains through Glenwood Springs and
down the Grand river to Grand junction,
thence to Salt Lake City. Ogden and San
Francisco. By this route one is given an
opportunity to behold the magni6cence OF
Eagle River canyon and the marvellous
beauty and grandeur of the Canyon OF
the Grand, The overland train is a model
in every respect. From the engine to the
last first. class coach everything is bright
and new and of the most elegant style OF
workmanship and finish.

about these s~tupendous works Of nature,
