women to propose one. Owing to
the number OF intermarriageS
among the tribes, this is the usual
mode of proceeding. At last,
through the inf lence of Major
Thomas, a day was appointed for
both parties TO meet at the post.
.trancisco, an intelligent, SPLEEN
diG-ioOking young Indian, ard
brother to the murdered Macedon,
Was sent down the river to bring
up the Cocopah chiefs. Four OF
them and their women arrived on
board the steamboat. Jose, Jepi-
Ia, Coyote, and Colorado, repre-
senting the COcOpas, and PaScual,
an immense man, near six feet
four inches in height, Caballo-en-
pelo, and Vincente, figured on the
part of the Cuchanos. All made
speeches; and when asserting 10
any particular view advanced, ON
either side, they commenced with
the principal chief, and passing
round the whole circle from one
to another, in the order Of rank,
each one expressed his approval
by the monosyllable, good"
After the words of the treaty
had been agreed upon, the Major
asked each one to make a sign or
mark opposite his name. Before
having time 10 explain Its purport
Jepila jumped up, and, with very
energetic language and appro-
PIRATE gesture, stated that their
word was as good as their mark;
but that they would make any OF
their signs, such as kneeling
upon one knee" "raising the
hand 10 heaven" or "embracing."
Immediately putting his words
into effect, he walked up to Pas
cual, and taking his large frame
in his arms, gave MIN d long and
tight embrace. After the cere-
mOny was over, rations were issu-
ed to them, which they devoured
with right good will. They then
went about begging for old clothes,
and in the evening celebrated one
of their games.
The association of the Indian with
the whites tends to cause a rapid
decrease by the introduction of
diseases among them heretofore
unknown; War too, among them
selves Is a great eXterminator, but
has the advantage of making
them more dependent upon the
whites. Thinking the military
will protect all, they draw near to
the post, and from presents learn
the use of various articles of cloth
ing and food; these, now regarded
aS luXurieS, will in time, become
to them necessities. They, too,
learn and see the advantages
which the whites possess over
them in every respect, and are
not slow either TO admit or ac-
count for it. They say that whites
and Indians at one time were all
one tribe, equally well informed,
and acquainted with the use of
implements of husbandry and of
all useful articles. Differing upon
a choice of chief, they quarrel
led, and during the night the
whites stole march upon them,
carrying away everything, and
leaving the poor Indian in the
dark.
These Indians are of a dark
brown color; during the cold
weather, of dull and dirty appear
ance, but in summer bright and |
glossy from bathing in the river.
They are most expert swimmers.
They are of the medium height,
well formed, and slender; not mus |
cular, the deltOid muscles alone
being largely developed, arising
from the peculiar mode of throw
ing the arms while swimming;
active and clean-limbed; their
features not Otdisagreeable, although

Colorado river and within twenty miles Of
the railroad bridge across this stream.
Under these circumstances it certainly
seems as if we can expect to see mill put
to work it within the next six months or
year. The present owners arc without
capital, but are taking steps for securing
it.

An Old Old Story.

1t is always pleasing to recognize. an
old acquaintance after a long absence.
Of course time works many changes.
but the general features remain the
same and secure joyful greeting from
my friends Of by-gone days. = It is with
a thrill Of delight that many newspa-
pers will recognize that venerable story,
which is now on its travels, about a
farmhouse out west being set fire by
the suns reflection ON a number of
bright milk pans. The scissors trembled
with joy, few moments ago, as they
clipped the ancient fiction from the
Boston Globe, in order to be put away
in a drawer until it comes around next
year again, changed, it is. true, yet ever
the same. In IT it was milk pans that
caused the confagration; in rs it was a
looking glass; in rs it was the glitter
ing instruments of asbrass band in the
neighborhood; in ~ "a mill pond that
some one carelessly left out doors did
the damage; in '73 it was the milk pans
again, and thus the aged fabrication
revolves. The story for rs has been
put with it's predecessors in the drawer.
The farmhouse has been reinsured and
is all ready for a big fire next year.

most brutal of the old Mormon Danites,
who died the other day, thus cheating
the hangman of lively victim, had an
edifying funeral. Joe F. Smith Of the

sermon, taking for the text, Cali sins
shall be forgiven except the sin against
the Holy Ghost" The bosom friend
of Joe. Fs uncle was eulogized as a
true Iatter-day saint, who had kept his
covenants faithfully and earned the
reward of eternal life. The only fault
which could be charged against the
dear departed was that he had weak
ness for tanglefoot, while his virtues
were life of devotion to the interests
of the kingdom of God on earth. He
had his little faults" said the apostle
Joe, "but Porter's life On earth, taken
altogether, was one worthy of example,
and reflected honor upon the church.
Through all his trials he had never once
forgotten his obliga tons to his brethren
and to his God" - It was q fitting trib-

and scandalized family circle behind the
door. Your father-in-law is the most
unpopular man in Spain," one cOunc;-

not long ere all difficulties were sur
mounted. The brides wealthy father

whispered to each other through the
telephone. Thus to CASTLE and Leon

Thought He had 'em Again.

Sniffles brought hist two weeks spree
to close on Saturday night. He lay
or lounge in the parlor, feeling as
mean as sour lager, when something
in the corner of the room attracted his
attention. Raising ON his elbow he
gazed steadily at it. Rubbing his eyes,
he stared again, and as he stared his
terror grew. Calling his wife he asked
hoarsely.

Sniffles' name was Lycurgus, and his

An Important Fraction Stimulated.

The kidneys exercise most important functions,
which are so wearisOme that they tax to the ut

little organs. Every breath, every pulsation Of
the heart every movement of limb, every
thought, makes waste and necessitateS the devel-
opment of new atoms. The used up PARTICLES in
the blood sire sfted from it and dissolved in a

this fluid into the bladder. A train of disasters
