JOSEPHINE MARBLE HILLS"
MADE NATIONAL MONUMENT

Washington, July 29.-The Presi-
dent has just signed a proclamation
making National Monument of the
Oregon Caves or Marble Halls" o.
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-
bic 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 depth of about 1000 feet
below the summit of Cave mountain.
the highestbeing some seven or eight
hundred feet above it. There are
many passageways and rooms which
lave never been opened. and with
these distant and unexplored open
lngs the magnitude of the Oregon
caves is practically unknown.
These natural wonders were dis.
covered in 1874 by Eliza Davidson.
while 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
