John Turley. Conductor Price was

Evidences OF Subterranean Commissions
Among the Mountains of Pennsylvania
The curious phenomenon formerly
exciting the wonder of people living in
the vicinity of Thick Head and Sand
mountains, south of Tusseyville. Cen
ter county, Pa. which has not been
noticed for Ave years. has made its pres
ence known again. For twelve years. at
irregular intervals. the jewellers in that
part of Center county had been dis
turbed b. loud and mysterious noises
which came from the ground between
the two mountains named. In the
spring Of ISIS these noises were heard
daily. with increased volume, for a
week. The noises, according 10 the
Chicago Herald. were sometimes like
the rumble OF distant thunder and then
like the deadened crash of thunder
heard in the air close by. On the sew
enth day of this protracted disturbance
beneath these two mountains a resi-
dent of Tusseyville was climbing
Thick Head mountain. when the
rumbling began in the mountain OPP
posite. At first It was deep and low,
and il increased in violence until IL be-
came as the tumult of a mass Of rock
rolling down a mountain side. The
person who heard the sounds said that
they convinced him that they we're
caused by a subterranean avalanche.
as it began at the very top OF the
mountain. increasing in violence and
speed as il went down, and terminal
ing IN a terrible crash at the bottom.
After that day the Thick Head noises
ceased. and were not heard again until
week ago. when they began just as
they lad terminated in similar sub
terTanean land or rock slide. except
that this time the hidden avalanche oc-
CURED somewhere in the depth OF
Thick Il cad mountain. instead OF in
Sand mountain. la Potter county, Pa,
between Roulette and Burtville. is
hin in which rumblings Of the same
nature are heard at irregular inter
walls. This elevation is called Thunder
L;l. and it rises from the south bank
of the Allegheny river. The noises
that occur in this Hill sometimes make
the earth trem6lc for long distance
around. AID they have been heard for
a mile away. The theory Of local saw
ants is that a strong vein of natural gas
underlies the hill. and that when the
great retort is disturbed by some un-
dergroupd CONFUSION IL rises in its
might and tumbles rocks and things
around in the confines of the,hill until
everything huns. Still no one has con-
fidence enough in this theory 10 hand
out the money that is being asked for
20 send a drill down into the alleged
gas cauldron. let out its treasure and
make everxbodv in that hailiwick rich.
