LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
(Under ttifs heading short Utters ef In.
tarest will ba published when accompa
nied, for publication, by the writer's
name. The Tribune will not be held re
sponsible for opinions here expressed.)
MR.II0DG3OM IH CORRECT.
Editor of The Tribune;
Sir: I are wlfh T. A. T. Hodgson,
In his opinion In regard to Scranton
oarties finding coal In Hamilton town
ship, Monroe county, and that the sup-
Dosed coal find is naming dut me mas
sive slate formation called the Marcel-
lus. The Marcellus has a continuous
outcrop through Pike, Monroe, Carbon
and Schuylkill counties, and also out
crops In many other localities through
out the state, and lies thousands of feet
beneath the true coal measures, ana
is overlaid In regular order by forma
tions called Hamilton, Portage, Che
mung, Catsklll, Pocono, Mauch Chunk,
Rei Shale and Pottsvllle conglomerate,
which holds all the true coal formations
in the slate.
Much money has been wasted In pros
pecting the Marcellus in the vain hope
of finding coal, al?o the Utica slate.
which lies much deeper, and which In
New York state in the surface rock of
th Mohawk Valley.
My reading In The Tribune that busi
ness men of Scranton expected to find
coal near Stroudsburg, and that an ex
pert thought the prospects looked fav
orable, surprised me very much. I was
also surprised to think that comrxra-
tively so few people understand the
geological formations of this ft ate.
Much money would often Ue saved bv
parties desiring to prospect for coal
by first consulting with a competent
man that fully understand the manv
geological formations or the state, their
compositions and relations to each
other. Truly, Wertbrook Marring.

ARRANGING INSTITUTES.
Meeting for That Purpose Held by Agri
cultural Association.
Last spring a number of the leading
farmers or the county formed an or
ganization known as the Lackawanna
County Agricultural association, the
object of which is to discuss, consider
and experiment with the latest Ideas
In the way of scientific farming, and to
hold exhibits that will be purely agri
cultural and possess an educational
value to those who earn a livelihood by
tilling the soil.
The first meeting of the executive
committee of this organization was held
yesterday hi the court house and was
attended by Freeman Leach, of South
Ablngton, president; H. W. NorthuD.
or Olenburn, secretary; Clark Seism, of
La iPlume: A. Whitney, of West uVlb-
tngton; John L. Stone, of Waverly, and
Elmer Taylor, of Tompklnsvllle.
It was decided to hold a fair 'next
year at a place to be determined upon
Inter and to hold local Institutes during
the first week in December at Clark's
Green, Benton Center, Tompklnsvllle,
Newton center and (Moscow. At these
Institutes papers on live topics will be
read and addresses delivered by the
most practical advanced thinkers
among the agriculturists of the coun
try. m

TRYING TO PARC DOWN AMOUNT
Tweaty-Oae Tkosuuiad Dollars Is All the
Available asa There Is on Hand
for tbe Approaches to the
Uadea Street Bridge.
The avproxtinate estimate of the cost
of constructing the approaches to the
Linden stieut bridge it, according to
City Bivgineer Phillips, about $!,0W.
while the amount available for rhe
work is less than S-l.OM).
The engineer's corps are going over
uhe plana again In Bhe hope of paring
down the approximate estimate and
Councilman Nealls. who te taking the
most active Interest In the completion
of the approaches. Is figuring hard to
raise the available -money to an amount
that will tally with the estimate. Even
though there Is a slight discrepancy It
will not prevent the work from being
carried on. as the bidders' figures will
undoubtedly be mucti lower than the
engineer's estimate, as the latter is al
ways placed at a figure higher than
the cost Is expected to be.
It Is Intended to pave the new thor
oughfare all the way from Mitllin ave-nu-
to 4he Swetland street bridge.
Asphalt will be used on the bridge and
stone block on the approaches. The
paving of the approaches Is, however,
only a possibility, aa the property hold
ers along the route have not all slgnllled
their willingness to share the expense.
The Kobintsons readily agreed to pay
theHr chare and the Jersey Central will
undoubtedly contribute, as the road
will be used by lihem to a great extent.
Contrary to the general Impression It
Is said that street cars will not be al
lowed to pass over the Linden street
bridge.

Excursion to Ocean Grove for the Camp
Meeting.
Asbury Park and Ocean Grove, recog
nised as the most famous of all the great
New Jersey seashore resorts, have mani
fold attractions for all persona that ap
preciate a sojourn by the ocean. The
world at large contribute people that are
patrons or -these resorts and among them
are many that are distinguished tn the
various walks or Ufa. The hotel, cottages,
views of ocean, the breakers, bathing and
style that pervades Asbury Park each re
curring summer Is somotMng startling
and must be seen by personal observation
In order to be appreciated fully. August
Is tbe month here. The hotels and .cot.
tages are tilled, the fine driveways are gay
wan lasnionaoie equipages and the mu
sic of manifold bands and orchestras
throw Its resonant echo over the entire
scfue. At might the flicker of electric
lights seems to be almost tn competition
with the stars, for it must be remembered
that Asbury Park is a city of advancement
and has all the modern Improvements
born of enterprise. The private life in cot
tages Is il n strange comparison with the
fashionable round of hotel gayety that at
tracts wide-awake people to the grand
hotels. Asbury Park with all the bustle
that keeps visitors on the qul-vive, has
no disorder, for the stringent local laws
keep all would-be offenders within bounds
and nothing but a good time marks the
wane of summer days. Bathing Is one of
Anbury's greatest attractions, and the cos
tumes seen here In the breakers are as
original as they are costly and varied.
The board walk, the greatest along shore
promenade north of Atlantic City, has the
appearance of upper Broadway. New
York, on Saturday aftennoon, with Its
surging crowd moving in opposite direc
tions, and Ocean Grove, with Its colony
or white tents, 'the abodes or campers-out.
is a pretty signt to nenoiu. Tne annual
camp meeting begins here Aug. 20 and will
cntmtinue ten days. The Central Railroad
of New Jersey will give residents along
the Lehigh and Susquehanna division
from Scranton to Mauch Chunk an oppor
tunity to visit these places by a very low
rate excursion that wHI be run Saturday
