min, the energetic and indefatigable secre
tary-and treasurer of the Association, had
eWrything arranged with such admirable
foresight, that rooms, were assigned to the
850 guests without any unnecessary delay or
confusion. Doing- Justice to the excellent
cuisine of the Lelands', walking on the beach
or watching the dashing turnouts that made
the magnificent boulevard an interesting
spectacle, seemed to be the man employ-
Mont of the day. In the evening; _the mem- -
biers of the Association, accompanied by their
wives and daughters, filled the spacious draw
ing room. After a half hour spent in social
chat, the meeting was called to order by Mr.

Mr. Charles E. Smith, Editor-in-chief of the
Philads:lphia Press, delivered au address
upon' the "Mission of, the Newspaper."
Mr. Smith is an CloqUent speaker as well as,
a strong writer. With masterly power he
drew a picture of the olds and aims of -an
ideal - journalism. The Press in its - fearless-,
ness and independence, in its honesty of pur-
Pose and purity of tone, isirapidly approach
' lug the high ideal of a _true newspaper,
which Mr. Smith sketched in such glowing
colors. His address was cordially
,received

excursion party dispdsed of the time as pleas 7
ed them best, Very many went pp to Coney
Islaiidor New York by steamer, while other's
,took long drives through the delightful
surroundings of Long Branch proper. The
park of John Hoey is open to strangers six
days out of the seven and is said to be the
finest private park in America. The conser
vatories, especially that devoted to tropical
species of the cacti, are a wonder and a de
delight to all who love flowers. The groves
are luxhriant, and their cool recesses form - an
inviting retreat froin the heat. and dust out

Qn Wednesday evening the Messrs. Leland
tendered a complimentary hop to the -mem

some of the toilets elegant; so the young
people enjoyed themselves in tieing "the light •
fantastic" until a reasonably early hour in
the morning.
On Thursday at 1:30 p. m., the President—
who was stopping with his family at .the
aristocratic Elberon far a few days --drove

spend with us, having accepted a previous
invitation to a banquet at 2130 p.. m:, " given
by the veterans of the famous 7th
.Regiment‘ of New York, at the West End
hotel. He made the moat of those few Mo
ments by giving a cordial hand-clasp to each
One and saying a few pleasant words to all
who were presented to him. Tbb President
is as modest and unassuming in manner as
was representative Hatfield, who' was always
rather shy in society:.

which we did not catch, made a neat and
eloquent speech. The banquet ended at
about 11 o'clock, and the guests very gener
ally retired to rest. Friday was hand-shaking
and leave-taking day. The
. special train for
' Philadelphia at p. tn., carried the last of the
excursionists from Long Branch. The meet
ing as the most einem fel and satisfactory,
as well as the most full in. attendance of any

• Thus we find nature has deposited in her
great store -hoagies in Kansas materials to
take the place in a great, measure of the for
est of the timbered states.
Though Kansas sends abroad for its supply
of salt there is in the State enough to supyly
the whole of the Mississippi valley. A very
largo deposit of crystalized salt is located
south of the - great,,bend of the Arkansas
river. Beds sre found from six to twenty-,
eight inches deep. In one instance it is said
that two government wagons . were loaded in
a few Minutes without being moved; and it
is so compact that a hatchet is used in cut
ting it.
These salt beds are formed by the drying
np of salt pohds. etc; And the indication of
these deposits are numerous salt springs but
more frequently • salt marshes. These
marshes are very similar. One in Republic
county, called the Tuthill marsh has an in
crustation •of salt frequently three-eights of
an inch thick. This 'is scraped up and need
for cattle iu its natural state, bat for domes
tic use it is put into water when all impurities
readily settle, and the salt is again restored
to a solid state by evaporation.
The marsh will produce a second crop aft er
five or six days of dry weather. And after .
several years of scraping yields as good a
crop as at the first; proving that there is a
uniform supply and. strength of brine. ,
On the organization of the State by Coll-
greys -twelve salt springs were donated to
Kansas, to,be selected by its owe commis
sioners. They were located in the marshes
and ten of them are very valuable. And the
other Salt. marshes still nuiverked are of
equal value. In Meade county the salt sink
his already become famous.
In this western conntrpthere aro what are
called lost rivers. -The Ciwmarron is due of
these Wonders of nature. Taking its rise in
the mountains it is soon lost for a space of
fifty `miles,When it again appears in the form
of a sink bat is soon lost to sight again. It
is reasonable to suppose that finding Its way
undo' a large spar of earth at the point
where the Meade county sink is found the
crust gave way thus forming a sink.
The Balt Plains of the Cimarron, about silty
miles east of the salt sink in limb county
aro produced by the evaporation of the salt
water of the Cimarron, which at this point
runs on a decline ceveral hundred feet lower
tbin'the sink. - .„
These are facts, yet we do•not believe that
the whole of : Meade county lice ov A- an tin
der currant of salt . water liable at any time
to be percipitated into sinks.
