person can walk from the east end of
the tunnel past shaft number one,

person can walk from the east end of
the tunnel past shaft number one,
which is 22O feet deep, and nearly to
shaft number two. This latter shaft
is 275 feet deep, and since the work
has been deserted, the many springs
in the shaft have furnished enough
water to fill that part of the tunnel
completed from shaft number two
and has also filed the shaft. The
water is said to be $50 feet deep in
this shaft. Between shafts one and
two, there remains yes forty feet of
solid blue granite to be blasted out.
When the work ceased in these
shafts, the distance between the two
gangs of blasters was 30 little that
they could hear each other at their
work.
Shaft number two is on top of
Stump House mountain. This spot
Is 1900 feet above the sea level and
is more than $50 feet above Walhalla,
which is only ibous six miles away.
The proposed road bed runs 275 feet
below the top of the mountain and
it therefore climbs a grade of only
875 feet between West Union and
the tunnel, which is little more than
sir miles.
Near Issaquena Falls, there was
constructed powder factory to man
ufacture the powder necessary to
blast tunnel. The old factory build
ing was destroyed by forest fire not
more than twenty years ago. Cap
tain F. w. Wagner, of Charleston,
owns the old powder plant site and
also owns considerable property in
that neighborhood. including Issa-
quen& Falls.
After the road leaves the west end
of the tunnel under Tunnel Hill, it
leads toward Clayton, Georgia, but
before reaching this town the route
changes its direction and goes toward
Franklin, Ga. Not many miles from
Clayton is the Dixie Creek tunnel,
which will be one and one-half miles
long. The majority of the work on
this tunnel is already completed. The
road leads from Franklin to Knox
vile.
Before the change in the officials
of the Southern Railway, at the time
of President Samual Spencer death,
rumors we're afoat to the effeot that
the Southern Railway expected to
complete this road, which for so many
years has been abandoned. Should
the Southern decide to complete it,
it will open up vast timber country.
There are millions and millions of feet
of all kinds of timber in the noun
tains which can be marketed only by
the completion of this road. And
then, too, the proposed route is the
shortest route leading from the West
to Charleston, and since Charleston
is the nearest largei:port to the Pa
mama canal, the coal traffic, ETC., will
be enormous, and no doubt the road
will prove the best investment of all
railroads in the country and will be
of much benefit to the towns which
it touches, and the country which it
traverses. - Anderson Daily Mail,
