WONDERS OF WIND CAVE.
Not a Bat Or Insect in the Ninety
eight Miles Explored.

In the much that has been said and
written about the wonders of Wind cave,
situated just ten miles from Hot Springs,
S. D., very little mention has been made
of one thing which is the most wonderful
about it, since it cannot be explained sat
isfactorily. The cave is named Wind
cave on account Of the action Of the wind
in rushing in and out of the opening. On
occasions the wind rushes in with such
force that it requires the strength of two
men to shut a trap door two feet square.
There is no regularity about the action
of the wind, and so 1ar as observation
can ascertain, it is not governed by the
condition of the weather. At the top Of
the notwithstanding stairs it is impos-
sible to keep a candle lighted; forty feet
down lights are placed i'll protected
inches; at sixty feet, where the first
level of the cave is reached, the candles
burn straight as a plummet.
The temperature never varies two de-
grees throughout the year, remaining at
10 degrees all the time.
The air is pure and bracing, and there
is not bat or insect Of any kind in the
ninety eight miles that have been ex
plored. On emerging the outside atmo-
sphere seems sitting.
