MORMON TEMPLE

Visiting Lady at Park Hotel Tells of Mormon City and $2,ooo,ooo
 Hotel Building.

Every block in Salt Lake City contains just one acre, and the streets arel one hundred feet wide.' said Mrs. Joseph Keefer who is making a stay of couple of months at the Park l.otel. Mrs. keefer is the wife of prominent business man of sho. shone, Idaho. but she spends nine months of each year in Salt Lake City where her son is making his studies in the center of Mormonish.
 The young gentleman is here for his health, and is wondering where he can rent an automobile to investi- gate the country surrounding Hot Springs. He is fond of automobiling and made an auto trip from Salt Lake with his mother to visit the Seattle exposition
 Speaking of the curiosities of tho Mormcn city. Mis. keefer entertained with description of the great Taber nacle and other buildings of these pc euliar people. who have given sc much anxiety to Uncle Sam. The city was laid out by Brigham Young, and he gave plenty Of driveway, for he made all the streets wide, mos of them being about one hundred feet Temple Square is the very center e which no gentiie is ever permitted to intrude to the sacred places. Stories there are galore of the mysterious things seen inside the sacred pre- cincts of the Mormon church, but i, Is supposed they are vastly exagger- ated. It is enough to know that no Mormon will tell what is in this sa- cred part of the Temple.
 some years ago. an enterprising but sinful elder took lot of snapsrot views of these sacred places, and was on the point of getting them copy righted and selling them to motion picture concerns. But he was es. topped by the Mormon leaders, and only few of the less striking views were ever shown. What the elder got on the side is not known.

Far from Erin's Isle, Surprisingly Beautiful Story, With Scenes Both in Ireland and America.

One of the most beautiful and inter esting Irish pictures that 1t has been the pleasure of the Breed to present to its patrons this season is the feature today and is entitled Far from Erin's Isle. The part of the pretty little col leen whose sole ambition it is is to go 10 America is played by the most pop ular player of Irish parts, Miss Gene Gauntier. In the part of Kathleen she is seen begging her father to give her permission to go to the promised land. This he gives reluctantly and after an eventfuI passage she arrives in New Ycrk. where she gets employment in a BweatshOp. Very soon cut in wages forces the help to leave, and she final ly finds employment in a department store but her faithful old boarding mistress, Mrs, Flynn, diagnoses her case correctly and declares her to be homesiCk.
 Alone and in strange country, poor Kathleen seems but little hope of her ever getting money enough to get home, but here Mrs. Flynn, with her big heart, comes forward and compels Kathleen to accept her small savings of years as a loan to get home. The pretty colleen refuses such an act of generosity, but Mrs. Flynn insists and soon Kathleen boards the big liner for the real homeland The beautiful scenes aboard ship but precede the real beauty of the picture, for arriving in the little hamlet she is met by the faithful father and oashing further down the beach she is greeted by her sweetheart. Brian. just coming in from 2 fishing trip. The good lads con stancy is rewarded when he feels the arms of Kathleen encircling his neck again and hears her promise never more to leave the dear old Emerald Isle
