bers. The present owners charge
two dollars for the first admission
to the cave and one dollar for each
succeeding visit. Four trips are nee
essary to see all the wonders. Each
one takes from four to six hours to
make, a q the four enable one TO
see practically all the sights. if one
is willing to walk some twenty-five or
thirty miles. On one long trip prac-
tically every important sight could
be seen if the guides were disposed
to show the cave that way. If the
ave shall ever become the property
of the government, is lighted by

will not take three or fouI days, and
the present barnlike quarters. Mann
moth cave will come into its own

However,, there are many obstacles
that will have 10 be overcome before
this can be brought about. When
Decor Croghan. the owner. died in
1849. he left the entire Mammoth cave
estate, consisting of nearly 5000
acres, in the hanGs of trustees for
the benefit Of his nine nephDws and
%nieces, with the proviso that when
they should all be dead the trustees
should sell the estate at public auc-
ton. Five Of the heirs are still alive,
and although the youngest is seventy
two, it may be many years before the
provisions of the will can be carried
out At public auction the Louisville
& Nashville railroad probably would
be the purchaser, for already it owns
practically all the land around the
cave, and for q long time it has been
known that the railroad would like to
get il to boom its traffic. The rail-
road and the trustees have been at
loggerheads for years. with the re-
suit that the road makes no effort to
stimulate traffic. The trustees of the
estate do not spend any money in adj
yertising the ave or for improve
ments. They are content to get what
revenue they can from admissions to
the cavern and from the hotel
Representative HOInaS declares the
government could step in and buy the
cave despite the Groghan will. which
provides for its sale only at public
auction. and then only when the last
heir shall have passed away. If he
can get a sufficiently large approrria-
tion-probably 81, 000, 900, for the tim
Der on the land is worth S250000-
the government can have the estate
appraised and pay the appraisal price
10 the trustees. His idea is to have
the federal authorities improve the
estate and make the cave once more
a famous show place. The thousands
of persons who have visited the cave
in earlier days. who have seen its
wonderful s~t8lagmites. who have
sailed on it's Echo river and who
have sat In the sta chamber. will
sympathize with him and his plan.
And unless his plan be carried out
in the near future the cave will be alb
s~olutely forgotten except in its imme-
date vicinity. The guides and the
people who live near the cave love it,
and they are looking forward to the
time when under government control
hundreds of visitors will arrive daily
to see its wonders as they did in the
good old days "befo' de wah."
