are located in caves which lie so feet
apart and are driven into the solid
rock of Hot Springs Mountain, where
they penetrate the natural water
courses of the Hot Mineral Springs.
The caves have concrete floors, while
the walls have natural rock. The en-

of stream of fresh air entering them
constantly. They are electric lighted,
with partitions between the pools, and
the hot water is ever bubbling up
from the Hot Springs beneath the ho-

the intense heat drops of moisture
gather on the rocky walls overhead
and glitter like sparkling diamonds.
Most all shades of coloring are found
in the rocks, brown and white pre-.
dominating.
