An Arizona Cavern.

One of the most wonderful caves in the world has been found in southern Arizona. Unnamed, inconnp1eteiy e1z- p1ored, and almost unknown is the vast cavern, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. Only a few persons have dared enter to view it's grandeur and to study the Wondrous work of nature
 The cave lies in the foothills of the Hunehua Mountains, about forty miles northwest of Noga1es, Santa Cruz county, Exploring parties have enter ed and spent days inside. but none has ever discovered the end, They report passageways, F6eE1s and cham bers in- numerable, some enormous In size, of transparent stalaetite columns. One feeKa has a level and smooth floor and they called it the dance hall, and oth- CTS have uafathened pits and efaasms. One party returning here said that inn menSe Sta1aeite columns extending from roof te reef may be seen on eith- CT side Of the entrances. As they pro- eeeded on their downward journey the formations became more interesting, until they found themselves iR a 1aby- rinth of passages resembling railways, windows or entrances into other rooms or chambers, iR which appeared sta1ac- titeS in thin sheets round, square and, in fact, in almost all shapes ceAceiK- able, from few inches to thirty feet in length. In the first chamber most beautiful sta1agmite rises from the deer to about twenty feet in height and stands cut independent and alone in all it's silent sp1endeE. Others can be seen and have their individual beauty, but they do not compare with this 
 Of the discovery little is known. Pat of Camille was, perhaps, the first local explorer of the cave. On one of his trips he found the s1ele- ton of man lying on a shelf, which readily crumb1ed on being handled. Some Indian pottery and beads have been found, samples of which are on exhibition at the Tucson university.
