Salt Lake City has been the tourists,
Mecca this season, and a great many
of them are Yankees. The crowded
condition of Europe started the sum-
mer travel in this direction instead
Of across the water. In the solicita-
ton for this patronage, Salt Lake
City has been in the lead mainly BY
the efforts of the Rio Grande Western
railway-the Great Salt Lake route
and its connections. The result is the
compensation that surely follows all
high class advertising. No line has
excelled the home road in the class or
extent of its advertising. No tray-
eler in the west can fail to be i'm
pressed with the excellence of the Rio
Grande Western train service. Its
three trans-continentaI scenic trains
are equipped with only the best Of
through Pullman cars, and all mod
ern appliances for the safety and con-
venience of its patrons. The dining
car system is an especially attractive
feature The food and cooking is
equal to that in the best cafe, and is
served-a la carte-at very reasonable
rates. a more delightful trip cannot
be fancied than to leave Salt Lake
City on the Rio Grande Western lin
tied No. 2 at 3:15 p. m; reaching
Denver at $40 p. m. the following
day, and Chicago the next evening.
The best of the mountain scenery IS
viewed from this train, by its day
light run through the valley of the
Jordan, Price Canyon, Castle Gate,
etc, in Utah and the Rocky Mountain
scenes in Colorado. This train has
close connection in Denver with the
fast afternoon eastern service from
that point, or passengers have the
privilege of stopping over a few hours
in Denver or Colorado Springs or Pu-
eblo until the departure of the night
trains-a very pleasant break in the
journey to the East.

The Cooperative League of Utah
was organized last evening with Will

league in this city similar to those that
are working successfully in England,
in Massachusetts and in California.
The meeting at which the organiZa-

Main street and was attended by some
fifty men, The meeting organized by

FINE DISPLAY OF FIREWORKS
PAINS BATTLE OF SAN JUAN
GIVEN AT WALKERS FIELD.
Remarkable Exhibition of Pyrotech-
nics-Tons of Powder Go Up In
Smoke.

Pains pyrotechnic display, given for
the first time at Walkers field last
night, was by far the grandest event
of its kind ever witnessed in the state
of Utah. 1t was something new;
something 60 excite unadulterated ad-

Pioneer jubilee three years ago thrilled
Salt Lake. but it cannot be classed
/ with Pains show
( There were seats for 5000 on the
grounds and not more than half that
number of people turned out. There
was a lack of enthusiasm, too, which
was perhaps because the thing was
| so novel. The spectators seemed to
know what was expected of them, but
were too dumfounded TO respond

! Storming of San Juan hill and they
/ did see il, but while that feature is
all that uniformed men, bursting
] bombs, fire. smoke, patriotic music

The originator has not sighted de-
| tail. The San Juan scene is a back
| ground of hills, with block houses
scattered at various points, and the
/ production opens with the entrance of
! the Spanish troops, $50 or more men
being employed in this. While in camp
various scenes are enacted. such as the
| burial of soldiers, replete with priests,
| buglers, parting volleys and taps, and
the capture and execution of Cuban
soldiers.
A courier brings word of an expected
attack and one could imagine himself
on the spot to see the manner in which
the men prepare for battle. The at

powder magazines and fireworks fac

noise was heard in. all parts of the

ginning to end.

Niagara falls converted suddenly from

red, white and blue stars, spreading
over an area of ten acres and lighting
up the surroundings for a couple OF
blocks, and slight idea of one little
feature OF the display is possible. The
show burned tons and tons of powder
last night and will do it each night this
week.
Some excellent specialties by tumb-
lers and cOntortionists were introduced
but the management would do we'll tc
hold them off until after the battle
is over. The spectators can see No

soldiers who are at the same time ly-
