FOR MINERS AND MINE OWNERS,

The present troubles In the anthra-
cite coal region have called forth some
notable expressions Of opinion from the
pulpit. Father OReilly, preacher at
Shenandoah, recently took occasion to
speak a word to the strikers. He told
his congregation that there were many
men present who wanted to go to work
They never wanted to quit. and they
would return to work any day, II they
did not fear for Their lives, Then he
said:
IT is a law Of God and OF man that
every human being has a right to earn

A CHiEr ATTRACTION.

one Of the principal attractions to
visitors is our grand lake with It's varl-
cd beauties Of island and shore, saline
water splendid atmosphere, and magnl"
fcent pavilion. They form a scene for
universal admiration. Every tourist
and attendant at convention or other
assembly in this city desires to see
the lake and goes away enchanted with
It's glorlcs This year It has greatly
receded from the old shore line. But
this misfortune has been very much
exaggerated There is sim ample OPP
portunty for all to enjoy bath that
Is unique and beneficial
one Characteristic Of this water Is
that being so strongly lmpregnated
with the saline quality. It requires but
little depth to enable one 10 float upon
IT'S surface. 1t is difficult somewhat to
swim in It, and requires practice to do
so SUCCESSFULLY But Its buoyancy Is
remarkable, and Il is almost impossible
TO sink to It's bottom, There are places
not very distant from the pavilion,
where ample depth may be found for
expert swimmers. But within easy
distance, bathing may be- had which Is
at once safe and exhiliratIng.
We mention this because the recess
sion Of the lake has been talked of so
much that people who have not tried
II may be led to think that bath in
salt Lake il now difficult to obtain.
Some folks who are fond Of boating as
well az bathing, have found 1t delight
full to row out some distance from the
piers, and then take their dip in the
briny water. The opening OF the bath
houses on the north wing of the payll-
lion has made deep-water bathing ac-
cesibe to a greater extent than at ear
ly times during the season,
The visitors expected here during the
coming week should not be deferred
from a trip to and bath in the Great
salt Lake. by any depreciation Of its
value from unreasonable persons. II
should be understood that the manage
ment OF the resort Is conducted on
strictly temperance principles and this
will recommend 1t TO lovers of peace
and good order. and form an attraction
instead Of a detrlment In the minds Of
the majority Of travellers. No .Elk
should leave Salt Lake city without
having enjoyed a bath In the Great Salt
