Underground Lake in Giles.


Pulaski, Tenn, July 31.--Mr.
Henry, reputable citizen Of the
Fourteenth District, relates an
unusual adventure which he and
a companion had on an under
ground voyage when they dis
covered a large lake under a big
hill in his locality. The mill race
of Watson's Mill is formed by
stream of water which rushes out
of cave a short distance away
which stream, also, is tributary
of Browlow Creek.
Prompted by spirit of adven-
ture MIR. Niece and his compan-
ion recently secured canoe and
explored the cave for some dis
lance, finding that it,opened into
a very large and deep body of
ice cold water which seemed to
fill huge basin, as the water
was perfectly still. Measuring
with 20-foot pole they carried
with them the men were unable
to sound the bottom of the water.
At times the ground overhead
was quite low, and again the
ceiling of the cavern, would be
lost in the gloom which their
lantern could dispel for only a
short distance. After rowing
about for some time, the men be-
came alarmed lest they should
lose their way, and returned to
the opening of the cave.
Mr.. Niece is of the opinion
that this underground lake must
extend over ten or fifteen acres
or more.
A coincidence in this connec-
ton is that on the Niece farm
nearly mile away is hole on a
hillside from which there rushes
a strong current of cold air con-
tinually. Livestock have fallen
into this hole several times and
Mr.. Niece has felled a number
of trees around it as a barrier
against further accidents to cat
tie. He believes this hole is
another outlet to the lake.

Be Patient.

We all must have our evil
days-that is the earthly plan,
and when you're treading rocky
ways, be patient as you can. For
If in brooding DER your Ills, you
spend the dragging time, and if
you count the weary hills you
know you must climb, you're
pretty sure to overlook the good
things on your way; the bank of
flowers, the singing brook, the
meadow sweet with hay. You
hear the ravens croak and squawk
as you pursue the trail, but if
you listen, as you walk, you'll
hear the nightingale. The BRAN
bles have your garments torn,
and multiplied your woes; but
if you look near every thorn
you'll doubtless md q rose, The
clouds are banking in the west,
you see the lightning's CLEAN;
but there's an inn where pilgrims
rest beside the fire and dream.
"The night is closing cold and
damp, and l am lost, " you moan;
but in some window there's a
lamp that burns for you alone.
And if we're wise we all can
sense the joy beyond the care;
there always is recompense for
every grief we bear. So when q
rough and dreary road and frown-
ing sky we scan, let's stand up
straight beneath our load-be
patient as we can.--Walt Mason.
