Hard by the ''Devi's Playground" in the
northeastern part Of san Bernardino County.
Cal. Ghe largest and in many respects most
diversified county in the United States), there
has been discovered a cave that rivals in extent
and picturesqueness most of the renowned cav
erns of the world.
The Cave of the Giants" as it has been
named on account of the strange confguration
of the mountain in which it is situated. is in
the heart of the Providence Range, about two
hundred and fifty miles northeast of Los An
geles and fifty miles west of the California
Nevada State line.
The cave is in the lofty limestone cliffs form
ing the north wall of a pass. 1t is in the centre
of a region that abounds with weird scenery and
odd freaks of topography.
The Devils Playground is a huge amphithea-
tire. the floor of which is ancient sea beach.
inC,osed by mountains approximating nine thou
sand feet in height High up on the north wall
Of Foshea Pass there can be seen every evening
at sunset two giant human masks peering out
over the Devils Playground. From their chief
characteristics they have been named. respec-
lively the ''M0rose Moor and the Sleeping
Giant"
The entrance to the cave is in the face of
cathedral shaped mountain, in front of which is
portico jutting out u deep narrow canyon
Overhead spirelike peaks pierce the sky There
are three narrow openings, separated by lime
stone pillars of varegated hues- At a distance
Of about hundred feet from the mouth the
three passages unite in one winding corridor,
which expands into q series cf wonderful
grottOs. The journey into the cavernous depths
is graphically described by George L. Berg, the
disCoverer, follows:
After passing the portal the last ray of day
light is soon left behind. With miners candles
ia hands go down gradual slope The
roof soon disappears from view. and the walls
leave US at the sides, but reappear little fur

A pretty wedding was that OF Miss
Hilda Peterson and John A. Swensor.
of Webster. s. d., occurred at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred Peterson, at
Armadale Farm, Wednesday, Sept. 8,
at four p. IN. The porch was decorated
with vines and golden flowers. In the
parlor, clusters of sweet peas were used
in p~rofusion, mingled with sprigs of
green. The wedding march was play
ed by Miss Anna Hoimquist as the bridal
party marched to the altar. Miss Anna
Peterson, the brides sister and Miss
Holmquist were the brides attendants.
Ida Pete rson, cousin of the bride, bore
the ring, Minnie Peterson preceded
the bride, strewing the way with dainty
white flowers. The handsome bridal
gown was of silk crepe-de-chine trimmed
with shirring, over lace, and orange
blossoms. The bridal. flowers were
cream roses. The bride was given III
marriage by her father. Rev. L. L..
Layne read the service and Emil Peter
son and Herman Holmquist were the
groom's attendants. Over a hundred
guests were present. Tie young people
received a number of handsome and

Lear
We feel an explanation is due the
public and at the same time a friendly
suggestion should be given other non-re-
sidents intending to hunt at Webster.
We are not what You call very fierce
hunters but we can hit a chicken now
and then and enjoy the sport as much
as the next fellow. Before leaving Wis
consin we provided ourselves with the
necessary non resident licenses at ten
dollars per and supposed we had fore
stalled any unpleasantness in that
direction. However itswas.no to be so.
AS we comfortably sat in our hotel
Office preparatory to our departure pom
dering over the good time we had had
and thinking of home and mother a
young man stepped up to the telephone
and called for the old man to come over.
This attachment of father and son,
warden and deputy, was touching and
we noticed it. Sooniwe heard the shut
fling of unsteady steps and we knew the
storm was coming. During,,t the confus-
ion and insthe course of his official
duty the game warden discovered there
were sixteen chickens on our string in
stead of fifteen as the law allows. To
IN ordinary mortal this evident error
might not seem so terrible and capable
of easy remedy by the removal of the
one surplus bird. But not so with this
yigilant officer of the law who instanter
confiscated the chickens and forbade us
to touch them. In the interval of these
pungent corporations of the game war
den he explained to the populace he was
put there to do s'his duty" Some one
said something about wind bag whereat
attention was diverted from us to q
bystander which apparently had a salu-
tary effect as we were calledinto a hall
way one side. Here the warden
explained that it wa necessary for him
to do this once in a while for the bene-
fit of the public and he had now and
then to make this play and that all was
all right. We appreciated the play and
the parts assigned to us, and had we
been given a little more time we could
have put up a better performance. On
the train another nonresident hunter
homeward bound explained to us he had
been present at the hotel and witnessed
the stunt of the game warden and us.
Personally he had been hunting with
the warden and was .eyerlookedn like
wise the seventy five chickens he had
with him. III, he explained, we had
hired a rig at the right place this would
not have happened. Our hindsight is
better than our foresight, and too err is
human, but we can at least offer this
timely suggestion to other green hunt
ers a long way from home, while in
Webster get your rig on the left hand
side of the street, and profit by our mis-
take. Hunter.
