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.

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. Intent upon
broadening their horizon of informa
tion and getting acquainted with their

nent to see what the other side is like.
Rut the remarkable phenomenon of a
river, hidden away amid the forsats
nnd mountains, deliberately dropping
a straight 270 feet, and then continu
ing on Its way to the sea, was des
tlned to and did, eventually, coms Into
Its own as the development of our wa
ter-power resources began to claim at

The enormous potential power r«t>-

gingers set to work to compel this
falling water to end its wasteful and
meaningless career and turn its energy
to useful pursuits. And so it came to
pass that an electrical generating plant
was constructed a few hundred feet
above the fall*. Later a second pow
er-producing plant waa installed at the
river’s edge Just below the falls. Now
the force of the water which forms
this great cataract la made to turn ths
machln.ry that develope hundreds of
thousands of horse power of electrical
energy. Much of this energy is trans
