PEET IN THE EAST.


the lecture given by V. S. Peet, OF
Utah, at the Pyne Poyne Adult
School, Tues lay night, says the Cam
den Daily Courier. The subject was
utah and Her People,"
The state of Utlh has an area of
S4,97O square miles, or about twice the
size of Pennsylvania. 1t is nearly
square and its boundary lines run with
the points of the compass. Utah is a
part of the great Rocky Mountain ia
BILE land. Its lowest elevation is about
$500 feet in the southwest corner of
the state. Its highest is over 1890 in
the Wasatch and Oquirrah Mountains
in the northern portion. OF the $1,000
900 acres of land, 46,000,000 is grazing
lan1; 100000 is water and barren, or
snow covered peaks, which are devoid
of vegetation, and about 100000 will
ultimately be used as first class farm
ing land The great salt lake is about
60 miles wide, 80 miles in length and
a very shallow body of exceedingly
clear water, which contains over 20 per
cent of salt and twelve other chemicals
or Solids A bath in salt lake stimu-
lates and invigorates, and is so dense,
or heavy, that one floats like a cork
Great salt works have been established
along the shore, where the land is
level. Dykes are built around an en-
closure and the water from the lake
pumped into it, which is rapidly
evaporated by the sun. This
process is kept up all summer and by
fall they have their basin filled with
several feet of solid salt. This
crude salt is refined, and the sodium,
magnesia, carbonate of soda and other
products usually pay for the refining,
which leaves the salt a clear gain to
the refiner. Much has been said by
eastern papers that Salt Lake is rap
idly drying up. Utah, like many other
parts of the country has wet and dry
periods. In 1870 Salt Lake was nearly
as low as 1t is now. In 1889 it was 10
feet higher than now. This last winter
there has been more snow and rain
than any winter since 1888. Salt Lake
having no outlet, can never dry up,
as 1t receives the water of the Bear
the Jordan, the Weber and the Ogden
rivers, with many smaller streams
The mountains of Utah contain all
the minerals known to biologists, in
paying quantities, with the exception
of tin. The output of gold, silver, cop.
per and lead for 1895 was over $685.
100000, the dividends on the same over
$6000,000.
In southwestern Utah the almond
tree blossoms in February. Cotton
raisins, white grapes and other tropi-
cal products are grown. New YORK
boasts of her apples, New Jersey her
grapes, Delaware her peaches, Ohio
her pork, Illinois her horses, Iowa her
cattle, Colorado her potatoes, Wyom
ing her sheep, Minnesota her wheat,
Idaho her prunes, plums AMI pears,
Washington her cherries and straw.
berries, Oregon her sugar beets and al
falfa. All of these are produced in
abundance by the farmers of Utah.
The eastern states farmer, if he
wants a few days recreation or rest
HES off to Watkins Glen in New York
or Glen Onoco, in Pennsylvania, and
he looks upon the rlvines as wonder
full works of nature, and they surely
are, yet If Watkins Glen or Glen Ono

Beginning of the Wall Street Mar
ket Session Gave Evidence of
Strong Support.
EFFORT SOON DIED AWAY
CLOSE WAS DULL AND RATHEF
HEAVY.

New York. March 3.-There was a flare
up of prices in the opening dealings to-
day, reaching to a point or upward in
many of the international stocks and
specialties. Within ten minutes Of the
opening, however, sagging tendency
set in, which continued with only tenn
porary Interruption up 10 the closing of
the tWo-hour session, when prices were
Rt the lowest and still declining, losses
having been quite generally substituted
for the earlier gains. The little squirt
at the opening was caused by the deci-
sion of the secretary Of the treasury to
deposit SO 0O0,oo0 at the great banking cen
tiers TO offset the effect of the heavy
payments TO the government account OF
the five per cent bank redemption fund
last week incident to the expiration OF
the currency resumption period on old
bank charters, which were renewed in
large numbers three years ago. The Ia
ter action of the market was based to
some extent on the conclusion that the
amount OF relief thus promised for the
money market would have little effect
on interest rates.
There was a suggestive advance in for
elgn exchange rates today following the
secretary 5 announcement, which raised
the question as TO how far a resort TO for
eign banking facilities might be preclUded
by the offering Of the additional supply
here. The bank statement proved equally
inadequate to check the sagging tenden-
cy Of the market, although the contrac-
ton Of deposits and of the reserve re-
quirement served TO protect the surplus
OF the banks from any but nominal in
road by the weeks Withdrawals Of cash
These proved about what was expected

sub-tTeasJlry had a credit balance at the

unuanCe of the drain from the money
market to the government. The compar-
atfvely favorable bank statement indi-
Gated that the conservatism of the sur

she prepared for the unusual occasion.
She clung to her husbands arm as they
walked down the street and nestled
close to him In the car. The fifteen
years of married life were forgotten.
The four little Atkinses, slumbering
peacefully at home faded away for the
first time in their short lives from
their mothers thoughts. Once again
was was blushing girl seated by her
lovers side
The first act of the play was finished
and Mrs. Atkins still dreamed. Then
a horrible thought forced itself upon
her. In her hurry to dress she had for
gotten to give Tommy his medicine.
The boy had been sick, and the doctor
had told her Oh no account to fail to
give the usual dose at night This was
enough. A crowd of thoughts Of house
hold cares surged upon her mind. Was
little Mary covered up or had she
thrown her covers off and the careless
nurse failed to replace them! Had
she placed the dough in a warm spot
so that it would be light enough in the
morning to bake? Had the butcher
brought the meat for breakfast and the
grocer sent the coffee? She could not
remember anything pertaining to her
home; she had been SO furried in pre-
pairing for the theater
Romance fled for the time being at
least Mrs. Atkins became once more
the mother and the housewife. Upon
the plea of a headache she whispered
her wish to return home, and her hus-
band, weary Of the play and hungry
for his cigar and a glance at the even
ing paper, willingly accompanied her.
The following afternoon, in pursu-
ance of his plan, Mr.. Atkins hired a
horse and buggy to take his wife out
for drive. Mrs. Atkins, having been
previously advised Of the arrangement
had so provided for her household du-
ties and the care of the children that
