On each side of the creek for 300 feet are as many as 20 bold fountains of black sulphur water running down , through the quagmires into the creek.

Half a mile above the springs the creek is dry in places, and just below the springs the creek is 30 feet wide and six ches deep, running with a switt A Trip to Monegaw Springs.

There are many objects in the vicinity of these springs to amuse About three- quarters ot a mile up the creek from the springs, on the south side, 1s the entrance to a remarkable cave,which has been explored several hundred yards; and about three-fourths of a mile southwest are the high perpen- dicular bluffs which overlook the Osage river. Looking to the south and west the view 1s gorgeous and grand, while north of the blutts and west of the camp ground is a splen did situation for a city. The land is high and covered with a thick growth of oak and hickory and other trees indigenous to the country, which would make delighttul native shade trees. Our notion is, considering the the known medical virtues of this water and the other natural advanta ges, there 1s a bright tuture for Monegaw Springs.
