[Illustration: TABLE ROCK AND THE DEVIL’S PULPIT.
This rocky plateau is located over the Devil’s Hole, on the American
side, 300 feet above the wild waters of the Gorge. It has been
the scene of many recorded and traditional battles and sanguinary
struggles. Grand sweeps of scenery are to be witnessed from this
commanding site.]
[Illustration: DEVIL’S HOLE.
The Devil’s Hole is a dark and gloomy chasm in the high bank, and has a
depth of 150 feet. It is said to have been a store house for ammunition
in early times. It is reached by the City trolley line and by the Gorge
Road.]

[Illustration: A FAMILIAR WINTER SCENE IN PROSPECT PARK.
In winter the high winds which prevail, sometimes for days at a time,
catch the spray from the American Fall and carry it far back into the
forest growth, the trees become ice-laden, and the transformation that
takes place is beautiful in the extreme.]
