CIIACK IN MOUNTAIN
HECOMES A CHASM.
STEVENSON, Wash., July 19.
The old legend of the Bridge of Gods
Is developing into a reality. The In
dians of old always contended that
at one time, "many moons ago," the
Columbia passed through a subter
ranean passage Just below where the
town ot Stevenson is now located.
This has alwayB been considered a
myth by the white man. About two
years ago the people living near Rod
llluff. two miles north ot Stovenson,
reported a small crevice muklng its
appearance In the mountain. This
has widened out in the last two years
from a couple of feet to over 200
feet and in one place Is sovorul bund
red feet deep. This opening 1b over
two and a half miles and passes be
yond the place where the Bridge of
the Oods wub supposed to have been
located. A house located at the base
- of the mountain hus been shifted
from its original position in a slow
form of locomotion, fences covered,
springs that have always given a flow
have dried up and new springs In
different locutions have made their
appearance with an abundance of cold
mineral waters. A small island has
made Its appearance in the Gore lake,
growing from a small speck to a space
of 20 by 30 feet.
The general topography of that
part of the country Is undergoing a
complete change and the Bridge of
the Gods may become a matter of his
tory Instead of a myth. The rapids
nre growing more rugged every year,
and It will only be a matter of time
when navigation will close at low
water below the locks, unless the
channel Is blasted out.
