Since that time photographs have been made ot the interior of a till more remarkable sink-hol- e, on the property of Mr. George Sanderson, In the Antes creek gap. This sink-hol- e Is but one of a aeries located within a stone'a throw of each other, any one of which Is very interesting. The bole In which the photographs were taken tor Grit Is a rod or more south of the big spring that forma the head of Antes creek. Ita depth la about CO feet, and In this monster chasm stands a broken wall of rock that has the appearance of some day having been shaken asunder by an earthquake. Great trees grow out of the bottom of the hole. It Is a slight task to reach the bottom of the cavern, for a quite well worn path affords the curious an opportunity to Investigate. Once on the bottom, with the black, Jagged rocks towering far above your bead, the novelty and this natural wonder breaks grandeur upon you. Down In the darkest corner of the cavern is a pool of dark green water. The depth of this pool like the spring referred to above Is very deep, and a false step or a plunge would send one to hie doom. Fen cannot depict a description of this rockbouud hole in tbe earth which is only equalled In wonderment by several other like sink-holwithin a radius of a quarter of a mile from this one. One of the other sink-hole- s, a little farther Bouth, is over 70 feet deep, with sides so that one cannot make tbe descent without the aid of ropes. In order to catch a glimpse of the green pool that a lo forma the bottom of this hole one must cling to the trees that d sides. But grow over ita few persons have ever gone to the bottom of thla hole, most visitors being satisfied with a glance Into Its threatening depths from the outer rim. It Is Said that fine trout have already been caught from the pool ut the bottom of this hole. This Is not discredited, for the water that forms the pool goes to create Antes creek, at the big spring a half a mile below, and that the underground channel Is directly connected with these groat holes Is universally conceded, says a writer In Pennsylvania Grit. It is told of the late George W. Youngman, Esq., that when a boy, together with several Juvenile 'companions, he went to the bottom of one of these and with the aid of a pry, made an opening sufficiently large to admit the passage of a body. This passage opened into the unexplored regions of a great care, and Into this the boys scrambled. With tbe aid of torches they wpre enabled to explore the wonderfully wrought subterranean passages. Mr. Younginan declared that they walked In a dfiutheast-erl- y direction for nearly a mile, making their way over walls of rock and along d stream. The roof of the the cavern, he said, waa a picture of grandeur, the rays from their torches revealing the most beautiful stalactite formations. That the exploration made by Mr. Youngman and his boy friends was repeated Is not in evidence, but that the wonderful underground scenery Is yet to be beheld by those who will undertake the task Is without a doubt. In which sink-ho- le It was that the boys found the entrance to the cave la not definitely known, although it is generally belleVed that it Is the one located near the Rauch's gap road. Here is an opportunity for some of our local adventurers to distinguish themselves. Who knows, perhaps some of the wonders of famous Luray caverns await those who will successfully penetrate this underground opening? The water known as the big spring," which forms the head of Antes creek, is of itself a curiosity. The great body water begins at the foot of green-tinte- d of a sharp declivity, circular In its form, wltb an opening to the north, wathrough which the suddenly-free- d ters start on their course to the river, three miles away. There Is no nibbling or commotion in this spring It is but an outpouring of the water that for nearly five miles, through Nippenose valley, make! Its way rlverward far underground. One day last week a measurement of the depth of thla spring was attempted. A rope nearly 300 feet In length was obtained, to one end of which woe fastened a heavy block of Iron. Thla iron waa dropped Into the water and the rope gradually and steadily played out. Down, down, down went the Iron, until every Inch of the et rope was submerged yet it had not struck bottom. This test but adda another element of wonder to the many curiosities that abound In this Antes creek region. Even though it 'flows as an open stream nearly three miles before emptying Into the river, the water of the Antea creek seldom freezes. For the first mile after gushing out of the mountain' at the big spring the water never freesee. This Is undoubtedly due to the high temperature of tbe water caused by Its long underground course. The theory advanced by tome Is that there le an underground lake of considerable magnitude beneath that section of Nippenose appear. valley In which these elnk-holes us rock-ribbe- Hlnk-bole- s, green-creste- 300-fe- ee Whatever the cause may be.
