WHAT A WASHINGTON MAN SAW IN KANsAs-A
BRIDGE WITH CAVERN AS AN ADJUNCT.
To the Editor ofTHE EVENING STAR
In your last Saturdays edition was an inter-
esting description of the "Rock Bridge of Ari-
zona,' which prompts me to give you descrip-
ton of one of natures works more wonderful,
think, .han the new wonder of Arizona. Some
years ago, while rusticating in the wilds 1 en-
countered lone cowboy who guided me to a
natural bridge and cave he had found while
hunting for stray cattle in the canyons. Should
you DE doubling Thomas, and wish to verify
my story and description, you can go by rail to
Hutchinson, Kansas, the thrifLiest little city in
add eom e
trading post called Sun City, near the west line
OF barbour county, Kansas, and on the Medi-
creek empties into the river from the south. By
following the creek bed you can drive up into
the hills some four miles, where you must leave
your neck is insured. Some five miles from the
mouth OF the creek you will find an almost un-
Bear creek courses its way from the Indian Ter.
ritory appears to have been crossed here by q
backbone or ridge some 80 feet in height. and
the water has worked a tunnel under the ridge,
leaving a bridge of sparkling gypsum stone,
spanning the creek about sixty feet in length
and twenty feet wide, over which an old and
through which the creek passes is from fifteen
feet high at the ends to twenty feet in the CEN
tcT. 4nc CcilinS Is well O0uOeO Win SWALLOWS
nests, and there are no evidences of recent
wearing away of the ceiling or walls. About
twenty feet from the bridge and some six feet
above the creek bed is an opening in the west
bank or wall just large enough TO let = person
pass In in STOPPING posture. By the Tight Of a
fagot OF cedar explored this cavern, passing
through rooms ten to twelve feet in dimension,
but OF irregular shapes, and again crawling
through uncomfortably small spaces, and COM
ing out through an opening not more than
eighteen inches wide and three feet high,
hundred feet or more below the bridge. Al
though the distance on the outside between the
two openings is but $50 feet one must pass
about four times that distance in going through
the cavern. The rooms are now full of bats,
and there are q number of very comfortable
looking bears beds under shelving places in the
walls. The proprietors were out when called.
There are neither stalactite nor stalagmite;
and gypsum walls. The country for miles about
this place is thrown up in mounds and ridges,
