II TR/P Z'O
THE MAMMOTH CAVE of KY,

DEAR EDITOR With your per.
mission propose to give a descrip.
tion of our trip to the Mammoth
Cave, Kentucky:
Leaving Louisville ON Monday
morning, June 10th, we reached the
Cave Hotel in due time, but being ia
tigued we did not enter upon our ex-
plorations until after dinner. The
party consisted of several ladies and
gentlemen from your State, and sew
eral others who went there for the
same purpose, 4. e. to see the cave.
One must see a party attired for
the cave to appreciate their appear
ance. The "cave suits" for the ladies
are somewhat picturesque, while those
for the gentlemen are simply-well
suffice it to say your correspondent
wore his only one day, as he did not
think it very attractive, either in fiji or
material.
Promptly at 4 P. m. we took up our
line of march, led by the accommo-
dating guide, James -, a very in
telligen; colored man. Winding our
way down deep ravine we reached
the mouth of the cave, which is about
five hundred yards from the hotel.
1t has wild, weird look, as, standing
just above the entrance, you gaze
down into its depths of darkness.
Our lamps were soon lighted and we
started on our journey, to make what
is called the "short route"
Before proceeding further, it may
be we'll to give few facts about the
cave. 1t is situated in Edmonson
county, Kentucky, about nine miles
from Cave City, on the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad, from which place
it is reached by stage. 1t was dis
covered in 1909, by man named
Houchins, who ran a bear into it..
During the war of 1912 saltpeter was
manufactured in this cave; the old
watts still remaining in a good state of
preservation. Though sixty years
have passed away the ruts, worn by
the cart wheels used in transporting
the saltpeter, are still plainly visible
in the now almost petrifed earth,
For many years after this the cave
was considered of little value, and at
one time the property on which its

rayed leaves; the feathery chalices
of the cactus hang from the clefts ;
the night blooming cereus opens Sc
curely her snowy cap, for the morning
never comes to close it; "the tulip is
here a virgin, and knows not that her
sisters above are clothed in scarlet Of
shame" Among so much magnif-
cence it was difficult to select special
objects for the memory to retain.
But the "Last Rose of Summer" de-
serves mention. This is large white
rose, eight inches in diameter, which
hangs from the ceiling, and, strange
to say, is the last flower in the avenue,
and there are no others in the imme-
diats vicinity. This fact gives it soli-
tary beauty which it would not other
wise possess.
The cross attracted considerable at
tention. This consists of two crevices
in the ceiling, intersecting each other
at right angles, forming a maltese
cross. These crevices are lined with
flowers Of plaster ofparis. The cross
is about eight feet long.
Leaving these enchanted scenes
where we see Gods appreciation ofthe
beautiful we soon crossed the "Rocky
Mountains" and reached "Crogans
Hall" the end of the cave, having
travelled distance Of nine miles.
YEARLY we set out on our return.
Several of our party had been too
tired to proceed beyond "Cleveland's
Avenue" and had all ready started
back.
Finally the caves mouth was
reached and toiling up the hill we
soon surrounded the well filed tables
of the dining.room, and 1 opine that
that there was not much margin for
the landlord that night.
In conclusion l would say we had a
most delightful trip, although we were
all very tired. d.

acres, was sold for only fifty dollars.
1t is now owned by company, and
is leased by Mr.. d. L. Graves, who is
the proprietor of the hotel, and who
knows how to make his guests COM
Portable and happy.
1t would be vain to attempt a de-
scription Of the many interesting
scenes in the cave. Nothing but
sight can give any adequate idea of
their grandeur. 1 will therefore con-
tent myself with brief running ac.
count of our trip through this subter-
ranean world, leaving the imagination
of the reader to draw the pictures as
l proceed.
Passing along the "narrows," and
leaving the saltpeter vats to our right,
the first place of interest we reached
was the Methodist Church. This is a
large apartment, eighty feet in height.
1t is said meetings were held there
fifty years ago, and the logs used as
seats are still there. A projecting
rock some fifteen feet high served as a
pulpit platform.
Passing On by "Wandering Will
lies Spring." we entered the Gothic
avenue, saw the "Giant's Coffin" and
reached the "Gothic Chapel" This
is very large room, the ceiling ap-
pearing to be supported by gigantic
stalactites, which extend to the floor.
The stony icicles are large enough to
form ribbed pillars, and fair gothic
arches. Three of these stalactite pill
lars form the alter. Our guide told
us that three couples had been united
in marriage before this altar. The
first couple were driven to this sub
terranean chapel because the fair
bride had solemnly promised her
mother that she would not marry any
one on the face of this earth So she
had to 60 under the earth. The guide
said he knew of no reason for the
other marriages there unless the par
ties wished to "run matrimony in to
the ground" Next we reached the
Devils Arm Chair" This is very
large pillar, with very comfortable
seat in it. Nearly all our party
tried the chair and as Miss McF--
sat in it some one remarked, "Now it
is forever purified" and as your hum
BILE servant in turn took the seat, the
remark was made, "Now the old fell
low himself is in it." ! vacated i'm
mediately. Passing on our way we
came to a small body of clear water,
named Lake Purity" from which we
drank, ard fastened by objects of
minor interest to the famous "Star
Chamber" This is sixty feet in
height, seventy in width and five hun
dred in length. The ceiling is COM
posed of Black Gypsom, and is stud
ded with innumerable white points,
which, by the dim light, presents a
resemblance of stars. Here all our
lamps were hidden or extinguished
and the guide threw a faint light
upon the ceiling, and most of the
party Immediately went into ecstacies
over the starry heaven which they
fancied they saw.
BY far the grandest sight on the
, "short route" is "Gorin's Dome"
This is more than two hundred feet
high, and its walls present gorgeous,
and impressive appearance when
lighted by Bengal light. This is
alone worth a visit to the cave.
Turning away We now retraced our
steps and soon were again in the outer
world.

scription of the "Long Route" d.

The Detroit Free Press mourns the
loss of smart boy in this manner {:
The public will regret to learn that
the family Of James Otis, Porter
street, is to remove to Saginaw, tax
ing young Johnny along. The boy
started out two years ago by shooting
himself. Two months after he chok-
ed himself with fish bone. A few
days after he built fire in the barn
and called out the steamers. He then
swallowed top, got run over by an
ice wagon, fell into the river, was lost
for three days, and first and last he

whose value cannot be estimated on a
slate four feet square. If the Saginaw
reporter only commences on him right
he will "pan out" at least three times
per week. He should be furnished
with a box of matches, horse pistol
and plenty Of gunpowder, and it won't
do any harm to pat him on the back
occasionally and tell him that his eff

One Of the most remarkable men in
Mexico is General Manuel Lozada, an
independent chieftain, who .prides
himself on having in his veins the
blood Of the Montezumas. For many
years he has been independent Of the
government, has his own army, col
lects his own revenues, makes his own
guns, and declares war and makes
peace to suit himself The population
Of his canton is 10000, all Indians,
and under his complete control. He

the hardest-working men in the can.

happy, yet he cannot write his name.
That sort of thing is done for him by
a priest who is always by his side.
An Irish correspondent of an Eng
lish paper, after stating the fact that
every steamer is loaded with emil
grants for America, many being left
behind for want Of accOmmoda-
tions on board, says; 81 sincere
ly hope my poor countrymen are elm
proving their position" in going
to the Far West : but if emigration
on this scale continues a little longer,
l think Ireland will become a large
pasture farm. Already several large
farmers in my locality have sold off
their milch cows and turned to feeding
dry stock, in consequence Of the scarci-
ty of female servants"
In Cleveland, Ohio, the other day,
a young woman called at a tailor's es-
tablishment to procure work. One Of
the workmen, an entire stranger to
her, being attracted by her appearance,
struck up talk, and in less than an
hour they were made man aud wife. OF
course such protracted courtship
afforded every opportunity for the
young lady to become thoroughly ac-
quainted with the disposition and
character of her spouse, and a happy
married life must be the result.
A young man in Hartford read
somewhere that more deaths occurred
at five o'clock in the morning than at
any other hour, and now gets up
regularly at four, in order to be out
when Death makes his morning calls.
