W. M. Hileman Writes of His Trip to the Coast
Visita Many Former Dakota County People
Also Places of Interest Knroute. . : : :
Editor Herald: Dear Sir On April 14th my wife and
I left Julesburg, Col., for a sight-seeing trip through the west.
Our first stop was a Denver, where we spent a couple of days.
From there we went to Colorado Springs, where we visited the
Garden of the Gods and Glen Erie. Our first Sabbath was spent
at Glenwood Springs. The scenery here is fine. We saw the
great Sulphur Springs, which make one think of the witches' cal
dron, for the water comes out of the earth boiling and bubbling.
The water from these springs is carried through pipes to the
various swimming pools and bath houses.
On Monday we left Glenwood for Salt Lake City, where our
train was due Tuesday at about noon, but on account of three
different wrecks we were eight hours late. We stopped here
five days, where we found one city, at least, on the square. It is
even built that way, as the Temple is built on a square in the
middle of the city. Each street next to the Temple is called
Temple street. The streets running east, west, north and south
are numbered one, two, three, and so on, and it is rather hard
at first to understand, but easy enough after you become ac
quainted. We visited the great Mormon tabernacle and also
attended church there on Sunday. This tabernacle has a seating
capacity of 10,000 people, and has no support to the roof but
the outside walls. It was built without nails, the rafters being
fastened together with wooden pins and rawhide, as nails were
too expensive at that time. It is a fine building and is built of
gray granite. It took forty years to complete it, the stone be
ing quarried some distance away aud hauled by ox team, and it
often took four days to make the round trip.
On Monday we left for Los Angeles over the S. L. & S. P.
road. The day was very warm and there was dust in abundance!
There was little of interest to be seen, and
have the blues until we reached
roses blooming and orange trees covered with fruit and blossoms.
The rest of the way was like a beautiful dream. We reached
Los Angeles in time to get located for the night. We were fortu
nate in finding Mrs. Geyer and family, and through their kind
ness and hospitality we had a very pleasant stay in the city.
We visited Mr. and Mrs. Frazer and also Mr. and Mrs Herrick.'
Mr. Frazer and wife were iust recoverino- frnm an attou f v.

I reached the Columbia river and

lined the banks on either side. The weather was fine and every
one seemed to be having the time of their life and especially a
lot of college students who were on their way home from Stan
ford and Berkley. They sang their rollicking college songs and
gave their college yells in a way that would satisfy one that they
were in the best of health and spirits.
We reached Portland at 9 p. m., where we spent the night,
leaving there Tuesday afternoon for Dallas, Ore., where we spent
