Fortunate Americans,

When the American citizen looks
abroad he feels inclined to give thanks
for the possession of system Of gov
eminent which, despite partisan diff
ferences, commands universal respect
and confidence. The exceptionally
high standard of intelligence which
here prevails is a guaranty against
sudden movements in opposition to
the established order. The vast ma
jority of the American people are
capable of Analysing conditions. They
keep in close touch with the affairs
Of the world and with the circum
stances of their own land. They are
growing steadily in political acumen
and are becoming more and more eff
GENTLY independent in their determin
atoms. With every peaceful political
revolution they strengthen the nation
al foundations by providing outlets fol
sentiments and dissatisfactions.

q - AMMOTH CAVE, the largest
AZ M of all known caverns of the
M4# world, is situated in Edmon-
~ son county, Kentucky, about
eighty-fve miles by railway
southwest of Louisville and not far
from Green river, into which the caves
Gubterranean waters empty. This sec
ton OF Kentucky, where may be found
limestone beds frequently reaching
thickness of 500 feet, is noted ~ it's

Joints. that furnish the conditions for
the formation of underground passage
ways and enlarged chambers by the
chemical agency of underground wa
ters, says the Spanish edition of the
Bulletin of the Pan-American Union.
From a geological viewpoint the
Mammoth cave is of comparatively re-
cent origin, it's formation having be-
gun something less than 100000
years ago, in the PliOcene age. The
cave action began after Green river
had cut it's channel down into the lime
stone stratum which underlies this
section. The rain water, with its car
bonic acid content, seeped through the
everything earth and passing into and
through the crevices and joints Of the
stone, at that time above the level Of
the river, began the work of solution
and erosion. These underground wa
tiers naturally gathered along the
planes of least resistance, and by the
process of solution and subsequent
erosion gradually formed what are
now the passageways and chambers
of the upper levels of the cave. AS
the crevices grew in size more and
more of the surface water drained into

strong current of air greets the Wis
itor, blowing outward in summer and
inward in winter. This is due to the
marked difference in temperature of
the air within and that without the
cave The temperature of the cave is
uniformly "a degrees Fahrenheit the
year round Naturally, when the air
outside is hotter and constantly rising
the cold air of the cave rushes out to
take its place.
Wonders of the Cavern.
Passing through the iron doorway,
the visitor finds himself in the Rotun-
da, the first great vaulted room of the
cave. The diameter of the entire cav
ern area is about ten miles, while its
known and numbered avenues are in
excess of 225, and their added length
is estimated at over $50 miles. The
various ramifcations Of the cave are
so extensive that the entire area has
been divided into four different routes
for the benefit of visitors, through
which they are taken by the official
guides provided by the management OF
the hotel and cave, each route having
it's own attractive features. From the
Rotunda the Main Cave, or Grand Gal
lery, is entered This splendid gallery
whose arched ceiling is so feet high
must be traversed to reach any other
part of the cavern. In it are found
many of the remarkable features.
Among them may be mentioned the
Giants Coffin, rock shaped like an
enormous sarcophagus, 40 feet long,
20 feet wide and about feet deep,
which has become detached from the
wall and ceiling and rests on what ap-
pear to be it's stone trestles. It's weight
is estimated at 1000 tons, and it rivals
in size the celebrated blocks of Baal-
bee in Syria.
By the burning Of chemical fires
many singular and beautiful effects
are produced by the guides in the vari-
Gus rooms and galleries of the cave.

them through the sink holes, and as
Green river cut it's bed deeper into the
limestone underIay the cave waters
kept pace with the process until what
had once been mere subteTranean rllls
grew into that remarkable under
ground stream which is responsible
for the immensely of the caves devel-
Opment, Echo river. This stream now
flows through the lowest levels Of the
cave, no less than 1876 feet below the
highest level, and empties into Green
river.
Entrance is Picturesque.
The cave is rea ched by means OF
branch railway from small station on
the Louisville & Nashville railroad
called Glasgow Junction, about ninety
miles south of Louisville. This spur
Of the railroad was built to accommo-
date the thousands of tourists VINO
visit this natural wonder during all
seasons of the year. Eight and half
miles from the junction the railway
stops close to picturesque old MOTEL
portions of which were built early IN
the nineteenth century.
The hotel is located on a bluff Oh
rectly over the main portion OF the
cave. the entrance to which is reached
by means of a pathway leading down
into a wild aEI rocky ravine in prl-
meyal forest. At the foot OF the blum,
in the midst of picturesque tangle OF
tulip, maple and butternut trees, IN
setting of grapevines, fringing ferns
and green MOSES, is this entrance
formed by a natural arch having a
span of 20 feet From frowning ledge
above leaps a cascade of water which
disappears among the rocks below
without leaving visible stream.
To describe in detail the vast in
terror of the cave with its Succession
of narrow passageways, broad avenues
yaulted chambers and domes, its deer
abysses and high peaks, its flowing
rivers. placid lakes and leaping cata
tracts would necessitate the writing O
a book. SO only a few of the most i'm

A winding flight Of 70 stone step
conducts the visitor around the cas-
cade into what may be termed tn
antechamber of the cave. At the en-
OF this is a grated iron doorway whicl

gvide. Upon entering the cave

One of the beautiful sights is to be
found in the Star Chamber, hall q
feet wide, so high and 500 long. The
lofty ceiling is coated with black gyp
sum, studded with thousands Of white
spots caused by the eff1Orescence Of
the sulphate of magnesia. These spOts
look exactly like stars in the artitlcia
light thrown on them, and by moving
the light behind the jutting rocks tbs
guides produce the effect of clouds
moving across what seems to De tnS
starry sky above. Various statuesqu<
effects are also produced by the lighi
on the walls, one Of which is known q
Martha WashingtOn'S statue.
Among the many deep abysses per
haps the most interesting is what il
called the Bottomless Pit. For many
years no one dared to venture to cross
this dangerous chasm, but in 1910 q
guide threw long, slender cedar tree
across it's black depths and discovered
new portion of the cave. Since thez
a bridge has been constructed over 1t
and it has been found that the abyss il
really only los feet deep. One enlarge
ment of the cave is known as Revei
Iers' Hall, and here tables and benches
are provided and visitors may enjoy {
banquet down in the dark depths in 8
magnificent banquet hall large enough
| to seat a thousand people.
Among the many marvels of the cave
perhaps none is more beautiful thai
| the magnificent passageway known as
| Cleveland's avenue, extending dis
lance of nearly two miles, spanned by
an arch of so feet and having an aver
age central height of about ten feet
From end to end this avenue is en-
| crusted with the most beautiful fol ma
tions of a thousand varied shapes. The
base of the whole is sulphate lime
some parts of dazzling whiteness ant
perfectly smooth and in other places
crystallized into forms of beautlfu
flowers, leaves and wreaths In thu
pickering light of the torches the wall
and ceiling seem to be covered witt
diamond roses, camelias, chrysanChe
NUNS and all the delicate floral beau
ties of botanist's paradise. One o
the great chambers is knows as tn
Temple, having an area Of about NV
acres covered by a single dome o
solid rock 120 feet high; another
known as Lucy's dome, is over 30
feet high and 60 feet in diameter.
