The basement is used for the kitchens
and dining rooms, together with the
study rooms of the Sisters. The labor

detached buildings.

city, the patients come from all over
the intermountain country. ranging
from Montana and Arizona on the
north and south to Wyoming and Colo

Keogh-Hosmer Hospital.
On the LIST of January. 1898, Drs-
Keogh and Hosmer opened their private
hospital at 166 West Second North
street 1t is therefore just two years
old. At first accommodation was made
for twelve patients, but before the year
was out the institution had outgrown
its space and large addition was made
to the building, doubling its capacity.
Even this is far below its wants. and
before the close of 1900 the capacity
will be again doubled, making a fifty
bed hospital
For its size the institutions is a gem
of comfort and equipment Its rooms
are all airy and PLEASANT and the
structure is one of the finest in the
city. The operating room is situated
in a north room of the new building
and in every appointment is the equal
of any hospital in the state The pa
tents rooms are furnished with every
comfort and every convenience that
the genius of man can invent is found
within the walls.
As will be seen above, the growth
of this institution is phenomenal The

then situated on Fifth East street, be-
tween South Temple and First South.
The institution has always been under
the care of the Sisters of the Holy
Cross, who have given their lives to
the care of the afflicted. In a few years
it outgrew its quarters, and in 1882 it
was removed to it's present home on

floor has the female wards, the mems

operating room, which is a model of
neatness and equipment. A number of
elegant private rooms are scattered
over the building and all the appoint

country and it was removed TO its pres

Since the establishment of the hos
pital at its present quarters its capa-
city has been steadily increased. In
1897 a new wing was completed, which
nearly doubled. the accommodation, but
even with this, at times the institution
is crowded and the corridors have been
used as additional wards.
During the past year the improve
ments consisted of the erection of an
engine and laundry building, where the
heating plant has been installed. This
building is detached from the main
hospital.
The hospital is nearly always filled
to its capacity and during the past
month there has been an average of
seventy-two patients beneath its roof

Utah, under the direction of Bishop
Abel Leonard, has made decided adj
vances during the past year. In Salt
Lake, st. Paul's chapel has become a
self-supporting congregation. Its num-
bers also have been increased through
the able efforts of the pastor, the Rev.
Ellis Bishop, until at the present time
there are POS communicates, with a
much larger general congregation. ST.
Peters chapel, in the northwest part
of the city, has taken on new life.
There are twenty-five communicates,
while the attendance at all services
taxes the present building to it's full
capacity. Revs. Bishop and Scott have
charge of the work at both st. Paul's
and st. Peters.
st. Marks cathedral has been under
the DaStorate of the Rev. j. B. Halsey
during the past four years. During 1899
he has had the work more fully in hand
than during any previous year, and
has made such progress as to need an
assistant to relieve him of some of the

progress apace with the rest There

has fifty-seven branches in the stake,
with a total membership of about $500,
while the Young Ladies' Mutual I'm

Both are cut of debt and progressed
during the year to such extent as to
place balances in the treasury of each.
From a financial standpoint the year
has been a very good one. The good
results of the last tithing mission of
the high church officials are very ap-
parent. Since the mission the income
OF the church in this stake from tith-
ing sources has been more than tripled-

The Catholic diocese of Salt Lake,
embracing all of Utah and Nevada, un-
der the direction of Ri. Rev. Bishop
Seaman, has made marked advances
during the year 1899 and now numbers
a membership of about 5000. This is
an increase Oh ABOUT 4OV over tlc pre-
ceding year OF this number 100 were
converts to the faith, while the others
were members of the church who re-
moved from some other diocese to this.
Much of the progress, especially in the
way of new converts, has been due
TO the efforts of Rt. Rev. Bishop Scan
Ian, assisted by Vicar General Father
Kelly and Father Kelly, jr., and the
members of st. Mary's and St. Pat
rick's parishes.
During the year 1899 many new and
substantial improvements in church
property and dependencies were made
and others begun. Another floor was
added to the academy building at All
Hallows college at a cost of $4,000. A
fifteen-acre site was purchased for the
Kearns St AIMS orphanage in the
southern part of the city and the cree
ton of new building for the little
ones begun. 1t will be completed with
in a few months at an estimated cost
of $4,000 for land and building. The
entire amount for the project was do
mated by MIR. and Mrs. Thomas KearnS
of Salt Lake, after whom the orphanage
has been named.

a measure due.

together with the various kitchens and
bathrooms. The second floor of the
main building contains the typhoid
ward and is also the location of the
finely equipped operating room, with
it's great cases of instruments and ap-
planes. Next to the operating room
is the wash room, or the surgeons
preparation room. Here there has late
ly been installed a new steralizing ma
chine by which every instrument and
other appliance is made perfectly germ
free before being used. The operating
room and its appurtenances is the pride
of the hospital and is surely one of the
finest of it's kind in the United States.
In connection with st. Marks hos
pital is st. Marks training school for
nurses. The school is under the man
agement of Mrs. Grassland, an eastern
graduate, and regular course of study
is pursued. Lectures are given by the
