America’s Marvels I In 1881 a man passing over a hole In the ground had his hat shot off by ■ sudden gust of air. History fails to record how far he ran or how fast. When he stopped and recovered tils senses he told others of this unexpect ed and exciting experience. A party accompanied him back to the spot and Wind Cave, one of the wonders of our West, a few miles north of the town of Hot Springs in the southwestern corner of South Dakota, was dis covered. Although not all of this cave has been as yet explored, that portion which has been trod by man comprises a larger area than that ocupled by any other known cave In America. The ex plored portion comprises about one hundred miles of pussageways and sev eral hundred rooms or chambers. No outlet has been discovered; therefore, the end Is us much u mystery as ever. Aside from an occasional trickle down some wall, there Is an unusual absence of water in this cave. The temperature Is a pleasant medium as caves go, neither too warm nor too cold. A peculiar feature which scien tists seem unable to solve to their satisfaction Is that of the shifting of the movement's of air through this cave. At times the trend of the air at the entrance Is outward and then again it is Inward. While it Is anticipated that ulti mately many different routes through this underground cavern will be avail able to visitors, three only have been opened up to this time. The longest of these routes includes some seventy- five rooms and about six hours are re quired to make the circuit. The names bequeathed to the vari ous chambers or rooms are characteris tic of the predominating feature of each. There's the Poet Office, where most visitors endeavor to find wall space for their cards; the Rride’s Chamber, the Garden of Eden, Dante’s Inferno, the Opera House, the Cross Roads, the Fair Grounds and so on. These rooms differ widely both as to size and formation. The Fair Grounds Is reputed to be the world’s largest underground cavern, being upwards of an acre In extent. These rooms are arranged in parallel tiers and are nlso stacked In layers. This latter arrangement on so vast a scale as here In. evidence Is decidedly unusual In cave architecture. The long and short of It is that this cave takes on a resemblance to an eight-story un derground office building. This cave was created a national park In 11X13 and Is open to tourist* throughout the year. (©, 1021. W.atern Newspaper Union.) America s Marvels NATURAL AND OTHERWISE By T. T. Maxey THE NIAGARA OF OUR NORTH WEST In the mountains of the Cascade range, southeast of the city of Seattle, in the state of Washington, three rol licking streams, born of melted snow, tumbling from the heights above, run together and form one larger stream. This broader, deeper stream, the Sne- qualmle river, meanders along through peaceful valleys, fringed by heavily- timbered lands, presses onward between great hills which threaten to stop its course and then, all of a sudden, in the midst of surroundings of great beauty, flows over a sharp ledge and pours down gracefully into a deeply carved gorge 270 feet below. For centuries this nature-made spec tacle, unknown, played its part In the general scheme of the universe. Even to this day It Is practically unheard of nationally and Is sought out by but a very few of the thousands of well-in tentioned folks who.
