SMOKE COMES FROM CAVE NEAR DECATUR Phenomenon Visible Only Since San Francisco Disaster MANY STORIES ARE TOLD Old Inhabitants Relate Strange Freaks of Fenne's Cave, Which Has
 Never Been Thoroughly e
 Explored.
MANY STORIES ARE TOLD

Decatur, April f9.-(Special) )-Whether affected by the San Francisco disaster of yesterday or merely a strange coinci- dent, q most peculiar and remarkable phenomenon has been witnessed by a number of people a few miles from De- catur. since the terrible San Francisco catastrophe of yesterday.
 Situated some four miles to the south east of Decatur is located an extensive cave known as Fenners cave. Ever since the news reached this city of the San Francisco horror people who have passed by Fenne1s cave have noticed great vol umes of black smoke issuing from the mouth of this cave end extending heaven ward as far the eye can reach. Wheth- CT this has been caused by the earth quake which shook the city of San Francisco or is caused by something else is unknown. Old citizens say that this is the only time within their recol- lection that they have ever seen or heard of smoke issuing from this cave
 This cave is a very extensive one--just how extensive is unknown as it has never pteH tHOi oubiHS eApioith So ldi do hiio H The mouth of the cave opens out at the foot of mountain and the cave extends for several miles under the mountain.
 Strange Stories Told.
 By many it is believed that the cave contains rare and valuable historical and geological and mineralogieal specimens. which might be found by thorough ex- ploration. Many strange and weird stories are related by some of the older citizens of this community concerning this cave. It is said that many years ago when the Indians inhabited this country in great numbers and there were few white men here that the Indians had concealed with nuggets of pure gold. The story goes on to relate that one day desperate battle was fought between the whites and In- dians: the whites attempting to get pos session of the treasure of gold. Several whites and Indians were killed in the engagement. but finally the whites were repulsed and the treasure remained in the possession of the Indians. Some of the old negroes are firm believers in this story and say that the chest of goid re- mains to this day within the cave. but that no white man or negro dare go near 1t as it is guarded watchfully by the spirits of several departed red-sllnned braves.

 The cave is located in a lovely spot surrounded by beautiful foliage trees and ostentatiously eolored wild flowers and messy dells.

 people today and are but rarely related nowadays.

 B. F. Pool, the Eighth avenue real estate man, is negotiating with the off cials of two small plants which are seek ing locations in this vicinity. He states that it is extremely probable that at least one of them will select a tract of land a Vulcan City. which lies between collegeville and Boyles. It is understood that the new industry will give employ ment to between two and three hundred men.
 MT. Pool is building fifty cottages be- tween the properties of the Sloss and Dimmick companies, and he reports that they are going like the proverbial hot cakes. Other sections are also building up rapidly, notable among them being the Garrett place. It is also probable that a two-story office building will be erected across from the city hall at the corner of Eighth avenue and Fourth street in the near future.
