THE MAMMOTH CAVE. 105 
nue leading off from Silliman’s Avenue and re- 
turning into it a short distance farther on. It 
presents several beautiful points, and is worth 
exploring. 
6. Tue Hit or FATIGUE is appropriately 
named, being hard to climb, but is not otherwise 
worthy of note. 
7. Tue GREAT WESTERN, so called from the 
supposition that in appearance it represents the 
immense ship known as the Great Hastern, is 
an enormous rock, many times larger than any 
vessel, the end of which closely resembles the 
stern of a ship. ‘To make use of nautical lan- 
guage, the rudder is turned to the starboard side. 
8. Tue Rassir is a large stone, which is sup- 
posed to resemble the animal whose name it 
bears. | 
9. OLE BuLt’s Concert-Room is situated to the 
left of the avenue. It is thirty feet wide, forty 
long, and twenty high. When the great vio- 
linist made his first tour through the United 
States, he visited the Cave and performed in the 
room which has received his name. 
At the end of Silliman’s Avenue begins 
Ruopa’s ARCADE, which arises half a mile from 
the Pass of Kl Ghor; it is five hundred yards 
in length, and from five to ten feet in height.
