MINNESOTA SALT REGION.

Probably there is not richer salt region
on the face of the earth, than the one in Min
nesota. The territory is generally supposed
to be valuable for its agricultural resources
alone: nothing however can be more erro-
neous True, its natural agricultural wealth
is probably second to none in the Mississippi
valley, but its mineral wealth is not less ex-
tensive and valuable. Among the latter, its
salt stands pre-eminent. The region lies be-
tween AZ and 40 degrees north latitude, and
81 and 90 degrees west longitude. Its exact
locality was ascertained and defined by an ex
petition sent out from fort Smelling, by Ma
jor Long, in 1929. A description of the
salt region, together with its locality, will be
found in the Typographical department at
Washington.
Our first information of tie salt region
was from soldier in the expedition. He
says that they had been travelling for several
days on vast rolling plain, with no trees or
waters; the troops and horses were almost
furnished with thirst, when they came sudden
ly on the shores of a beautiful lake, about
half mile in diameter, sunk down deep in
the plain. 1t resembles more vast sink
hole. From the height above the waters a
vast snow bank appeared to line its shore, but
upon examination it proved to be incrusta-
ton of salt as pure and white as snow. The
waters Of the lake were like the strongest
brine. So strong was it that one bathing ia
it, upon coming out in few minutes would
be covered with the white crystallizaton of
salt.
If this salt region be as rich as it is sup
posed to be, a railroad projected into it would
prove to be the best stock in the country
These are mines of undeveloped wealth more
extensive, more durable, and more important
than all the gold regions beyond the Rocky
Mountains. We are informed also, that a
very short distance below the surface, the pure
rock salt lies in strata like coal or lime rock.
We hope the attention of the public and the
Government will be turned to this subject.
There is region lying in our immediate
almost unknown, containing
more intrinsic wealth than any State in the
Union, and which would yield an annual in
come probably equalling the entire revenue
of the country.--4St. Louis Union.

AN INDIGNANTLADYI IN A DOGGERY.
The Cambridge City INDY News relates
the following:

The Cambridge City (lnd) News relates
the following:
On Tuesday of last week young man of
this place became intoxicated, and so contin-
ued for three days, to the great modification
of his young wife and acquaintance. Du-
ring this time bis wife visited all the houses
in the place where liquor is sold, and politely
requested them not to sell her husband any
more. They all declared that they had no.
and would not sell him any more. On
Thursday afternoon while out in search of
her husband she was informed that he was
in sink hole near the railroad. The lady
Immediately went there and found her hus-
band drunk and almost senseless. AT the la
mentable condition in which she found her
husband, she became very much enraged
against the doggery keeper. Provoked to
madness she seized a club about two and
half feet in length, and set upon the whisky
shop. The first lick, she broke large de-
canter to pieces, filled with whisky, just plac-
ed upon the counter as she come in for the
commodation of four or five of his drunken
sots then within. The next move she swept
pitcher and glass from the counter; this made
the old doggery-keeper furious; he attacted
the lady while she with both hands seized
the club and with one stroke brought his
highness to the floor. He raised the cry of
murder and fled. The rest of the inebriates
seeing the practical demonstration of her skill
practsed on the keeper, fled from the house
as fast as their locomotive powers could bear
them away from the scene. Having the shop
to herself, she coolly and deliberately walk
ed up to the whisky barrel and beer-keg, and
broke the faucets, causing the contents to
run out over the floor. After which she
broke all the jugs, bottles and TASKS that
could be found, and which he kept for the
accommodation of his blossom nose customers.
She then demolished the candy amp spice
jars making small pieces of all that could be
found in the establishment.
