A LETTER PEOM LEON BHUBEBT
By permission of Mrs. II. W. 8hus
bert wo are permitted to publish the
following flne descriptive letter writs
ton by Leon Shubert on his trip to Cal
ifornia, with his brido, on their honey
moon. Nov. 4. 1004.
Dear Father, Mother and folks at
home:
For several days I have beon looking
for a few minutes timo to write when
the spirit was moving me. At present
the train not only moves me but also
moves my poncil so pleaso excuso
flourishes. We are about throo hours
rldo from Grand Junction, on the
main lino of D. R. G. having como Into
that place on tho narrow caugo from
Salida ovor, 'Marshall pass" being
10,820 feet nltitudo or over 72 miles
down through tho Black Canon. The
latter placo is a marvel of nature's
handwork, you remember the "Roval
Gorge" and tho "Canon of the Eagle
River" and after passing through these
the "Royal gorge" twice, tho last time
with a very instructive and attentive
porter.
I will say that the Black Canon ans
pealed to mo more than any bit of
scenery I bavo had tho pleasure of sees
ing. Even so with "The Garden of
the Gods," The Cave of the Winds"
"Niagara Falls" or tho caverns of the
same name near Maniton. For about
Qfteen miles tbe narrow gauge (track
being 30 in. between rails) squirms its
way from sides to center of tbe "Black
Canyon," like a worm afflicted with
cramps trying to find its way out of a
crowded theater.
More significant in (this temple of
of grandeur is tbe ''Gunnison River"
with its deepest of sea green color,
matchless in this comparison and
changeable rs as a weman. At
times smiling aud deep and a? quiet aa
a pesfeot summer day, breathing suns
shine. Then note the change, a sllghe
riffle passes over tbe surface. Tht
sunshine has disappeared Ibehind a
frowning cliff. Tbe tiny riffles become
angry wrinkles, then comes tbe "scene"
that leaves an impression oven upon a
stone. Gloom prevails and bewilder
ment predominates. There iu no es
cape on either side. The rocky nointB
of nature are now quite visible. The
spray, or tears whichever tbe case may
be forms tbe rainbow through which
we at last see the smiling surface below
basking again in sunshine and content
ment. And yet by far tbe greatest
comparison,
After seeing and understanding, both
the river and women , 1 Am certain that
tbe impressions tbey leave on earth in
beauty and sublimtry is without other
comparison.
"Excuse me while I shed a tear," I
feel queer.
As ever, L, W. Shubert
After this burst of enthusiasm Leon
has fainted and the train physician
says ho must not write any more.
