just in the rear of the mill. Farther
from view, and then comes I'D and
flows to New Prospect, where it emp
ties into Lost river
There are several other surface feed
ers which are quite as freakish Near
them are found cayerns through which
subterranean streams flow They are
filled with eyeless fishes and water ami
mails. In some the streams have a
swift current and are evidently part of
the Lost river system. AT certain points
in the county the surface has cayed in
and shows Lost river running under
ground to the depth of 100 feet. How
the water is again elevated to the sur
face Is not known. The passageways
are through white rock, worn smooth
and white by the water.
Those who have made a study of the
subterranean streams Of Indiana and
Kentucky have advanced the theory
that away below the surface Of In
diana-in at least the southern portion
there is secondary great system of
waterways and subterranean rivers.
Some biologists Of note have concur
red in this theory. 1t is known that
such streams do exist in the extreme
southern section. Wyandotte and 9th
er caves owe their origin to these
streams. Some years ago a subter-
ranean stream was found running I'M
der Rush county, almost 70 miles
northeast The water can be heard
roaring through the passageways and
at times the course seems to be over
taxed. 1t evidently flows great dis
lance from the northeast and probably
has its source in the St Lawrence
river system. At English flood re-
suited in the discovery Of another lost
river. A new cavern was opened by
the water in Crawford county
The attractiveness of Lost river and
its tributaries is enhanced greatly by
the weird, wild scenery OF Orange
county. There is no section of the
state where the scenery is more strik-
ing and diversified
Near the mouth Of the river are the
famous West Baden and French Lick
springs, which throw off water

color, which has become noted over
