JOSEPHINE MARBLE HILLS"
MADE NATIONAL MONUMENT

Washington, July 29.-The Presi-
lent has just signed proclamation
making National Monument of the
| Oregon Caves or marble Halls" of
Josephine county, in the Siskiyou
National Forest about thirty miles
south of Grants Pass in Cave Noun
| tain.
The caves are marble and other
| limestones and consist of innumera-
BILE caverns, corridors and passage
ways of various sizes, all of them
decorated beyond description in
crystallized carbonates. They have
been explored to a distance of two
miles or more, the lowest of them
being at a depth of about 1000 feet
below the summit of Cave mountain,
the highest being some seven or eight
/ hundred feet above it. There are
many passageways and rooms which
have never been opened, and with
these distant and unexplored open
Ah6o ehC "hShAsouC vi IhG OiO6Oh
caves is practically unknown.
These natural wonders were dis
covered in 1874 by Eliza Davidson,
wksle bear hunting, and the greater
part of the exploration work was
done by F. NJ. Nickerson, of Kerby,
Oregon, in 1877, when four floors of
levels were partially opened. Many
of the old ladders used at that time
are still in use.
Cave mountain, the peak which
contains these caves, rises to an
elevation of about 5000 feet and is
Of limestone formation. The main
openings around which the National
Monument has been erected are at
an elevation of 1000 feet, but the
entire mountain-side for five or six
miles shows caverns of various sizes
and in all probability is honeycombed
| throughout its interior like the
portion which has been explored.
Many small streams are found at
different elevation. and larger bodies
Of running water can be heard in
bottomless pits so far as measured.
This running water probably accounts
for currents of wind that in some of
the galleries blow so hard as to ex-
tinguish an open light at once.
/ The lime deposits take many beauti-
ful forms: massive pillars. delicate
stalactites of alabaster whiteness
with the crystal drop of water carry
ing its minute deposit of lime from
which they are formed. and broad
sheets resembling drapery with grace

Hawley Victim OF
Murderous Thugs

Page Hawley of Union county is
field dying from a fracture at the
base of his skull and other wounds
inflicted by j. j. Burns and G. Pratt,
members of pursuing posse who
captured him. Burns and Pratt are
under arrest and there are threats
of lynching.
The story of the alleged crime is
that Hawley sold a horse to one
Stevens and later took the horse
from the livery stable and started
down the Snake river toward Wal
Iowa county. A posse pursued, j. j.
Burns and G. Pratt distancing the
rest and capturing Hawley. On the
return trip they say Hawley fell
from his horse and sustained the in
juries, but-at Copperfield Burns and
Pratt were jailed under suspicion of
having dealt too summary justice
on Hawley.
1dWley was well known IN tnlS
county and spent most of last winter
and spring at Enterprise and other
valley towns. There is nothing
against him except he was said to
nit the booze too hard.
George Hamilton of Joseph came
in on Fridays train. He saw Haw-
ey in Copperfield just before the
.rouble, and says Hawley fell into
.he hands of gamblers who won his
horse and outfit against $40; that
dawley was full and probably did
lot remember the events OF the
1ight before, when he. took his horse
rom the stable and started down
the river.

TOTS IMPRISONED; DOG SAVES
Three Little Girls Near Death Locked in Closet of Vacant House
 at Bay City, Mich.

Bay City, Mich.-The barking of a stray dog the other day saved three little girls from death by starvation locked in a dark closet in a long Va cant house in this city. For "A hours tEe tots were close prisoners, appa-. ently without hope of rescue, but the little dog they had picked up as play nate proved their salvation, and the three little ones are again with their parents, who had given them up as dead.
 Agnes Phillips, aged II; Helen Phil. lips. aged ten, and Guieth Carpenter. aged Il. are the victims of, what was rearIy tragedy. They were missed from their homes the other afternoon, and, as they had been teasing to be allowed to go fishing. 1t was believed they had been drowned when they Jailed to return at night. Searchers spent the night in vain attempt to find trace of the little girls, and hope finally was given up.
 The bark of a dog in a house long unoccupied and believed locked was heard by two women passing 1t nex: day. They sought to free the animal but he refused to go and led them to a closet fastened with a spring lock The children were playing with the iog in the street, and when they en tered the vacant house to enjoy a ronp it followed them. All got into the. closet to hide from the dog when the door swung shut and the spring lock made them prisoners.

BITTER RIVALS ID MEET ON
 DIAMOND

All roads lead to Warren today and there will be a fevered afternoon about the ball park There will sure be something doing. for the two bitter est rivals of all the southwest will cross bats and there will be stirring times.
 Douglas is coming up for a game with the revived, reiuyenated, recon structed and strengthened Muckers and woe betide the Demons. for the aforesaid and hereinbefore mentioned Muckers are vowing they will do things to the wolf whelps from Smelt- eryille.
 Just at the present time, so far as the baseball situation is concerned, the Muckers and Demons are just about on as friendly terms of intimacy as are Cook and Peary. That twelve inning game at Douglas is still rank ling and ther are also some other past performances that rankle on into a soreness which yet remains to be healed. And today is the forordained time for sweet, juicy and succuient re yenge. Of course the Bisbee bunch will do the meek and lowly, they will be sure to turn the other cheek. Of course they will, that is why all the fans want to go to Warren, just to watch them be smitten on the cheek once more. No, Willie, the Muckers are not doing that sort of thing just at this particular time. They have it in for those Demons and are determined to tame those wolf whelps so that they will lay down at command.
 Two new players are in town, two others are expected and may be seen in the line up, but even without them Bisbee is going at gait that ought to be fast enough to steal the bon bons from the infant.
 The Demons will be up on the af- ternoon train and will debark at War. ren. They will return to their pres ent domicile on the train which leaves Warren at 5:2O. giving but three hours in the district. but as the immortal bard makes Mercutio say, Tt will suffice"
 The line up for Bisbee today will probably be: Woods, c; Earthman. 2b; Ward, ss; McCann. 1b; Godfrey, of; Corr, If; Brooks, 3b; Royal, If; Peebles p.

WREsTLERS TRAINING
 FOR DUEL ON MAT

The wrestling match between J. T. Hazard, of Courtland. and Charles Stone of Bisbee will be held at the orpheum theatre following the regu- lar performance on the night of the 18th. This arrangement was found necessary because of the Warren base ball park. which was the place first chosen for the match, being engaged for baseball game. Rather than have any conflict in the dates Mana ger Hartman has secured the local theatre
 Both of the men have gone into training for the event and each is determined to put up as good show ing as possible. Hazard, who is 6 real estate man at Courtland, is well known over the southwest for his prowess as an athlete, while Stone is also a good one, being the man who defeated Eugene Traveller during the Lowell carnival.
 The men are to wrestle at catch weights, although each will weigh in the neighborhood Of 200 pounds and the style will be catch as catch can. side bet of $50 each and a percent age ef the gate receipts will be the plumb dangling before them as an in ccntiye for good work. It is hopel and expected that wrestling match If this kind ID which good work as well as strength and skill will be sf"wn, will have a marked effect III reyiYins local interest in the wrestling game which has fallen into a degree Of cisrepute here.

TENNIS TEAM MAKES CLEAN SWEEP FROM
 Fl PAsO PLAYERS

While Peary was announcing the discovery of the pole, there was an ether discovery which was being rIade. This other discovery was made in Fl Paso and came to the Pass City country club members as a start ling surprise. for they found that Bis been had a tennis team that was about the fastest article in the sporting line that ever hit the southwestern Texas metropolis.
 Warren did not send golf team, that was left to Douglas. but Warren did send tennis team that was found with the goods on them Cochise county may have lost the golf cham pionship of the southwest but while that was going on four sturdy expon- ents of the racquet were annexing every prize offered for that sport in the pass city.
 This was especially noticeable in the singles on Monday when every Bisbee man won his match and the four were letf to fight it out. while on Sunday Baker and Poppen won decidedly 2 hollow victory.
 In the doubles Baken and Poppen , beat w. Christy and Bateman 6-1, 6-1,. Landon and Notman lost to H. Christy and Neff 6-1, 7-5 and then Baker and Poppen won the finals from H. Christy and Neff 6-S, 6-2. 6-2.
 In the singles Poppen beat ormsby 6-2. 6-S1 Landon beat Bailey 6-2, 6-2, Notman beat Bateman 6-2, 6-4 Baker beat H. Christy 60. so, Landon beat Poppen 6-S., 3-6, 6-2, Baker beat Net man, 60, 6-I and then defeated Landon 6-1. 6-2. 6-S.
 The players returned delighted with their trip and warm in the praise of the well known Fl Paso hospitality and declaring that this hospitality was never more generously displayed. The prizes were a handsome silver mug and two very pretty scarf pits.
