THE CAVE AT BISBEE.
Where the Masonic Grand Lodge Will
 Meet

MT Lewis Williams of Bisbee, bet ter known there as Don Luis, arrived in Phoenix yesterday morning. MT. Williams says regarding the approach ing meeting of the Masonic grand lodge there, that letters have been received from Masons in all parts of the United States regarding the lodge room, a cave in the Copper Queen mine. Many members of the order to whom neither distance nor expense is significant, will be present, attracted by the unique meeting place. The cave is the most beautiful known. It lies between the fourth and fifth lev els of the great mine and is climbed into from the latter level. It is of great extent and of a height varying from two or three feet to thirty feet. It is wholly covered with a lime de- posit. The deposit on the floor bears an exact likeness of running water over an uneven surface, suddenly turned to ice, preserving the form of the wavelets and the course of the currents. Stalactites varying in size from the t1niest icicle to the thickness and stature of man depend from the
 eiling and are met by stalagmites
 
 takes the form of stretches of the finest lace and Is so fragile that it shivers at the touch A beautiful eff feet is produced in the cavern by placing candles behind this lace work.
 On the occasion of the grand lodge meeting the cavern will be lighted by electricity, the globes of the incan- descent lamps being of many colors What became of the water by which in the course of ages this great cave was leached out was at first a mys- tery. A year or two ago a hole was broken through wall of the cavern, disclosing another cave, which has never been explored and perhaps never will be. It is horrible Assure, not quite perpendicular. Pieces of stalactites or rocks thrown into it bound from side to side until the sound dies away in the immense depth. Sometimes when the object thrown into the chasm follows its course without striking the sides, no sound is ever heard. It Is as if the object had been thrown into infinite and voiceless space. It was no doubt through this chasm that the waters fled, where, no one knows, after carv- ing out this grand Masonic lodge room, leaving its floors, walls and ceilings decorated beyond the imi- tative efforts of human decorators.

The company was charged by Roadmaster Cummins with obstructing the public highway by constructing ditch on it. The company will pay the cost of the trial, $17.45, and put the road in good shape. It must clean out its old ditch of Johnson grass, the ditch in the road to stay where it is until it is done. This will be some time, as no water will be run in the old ditch until the grass has died for want of it. It is said this is the only practical way of getting rid of it.
