The Arirnnn Canvnns.

Of thirteen p~rospectors who left
Pine Spring, Arizona, recently, to visit
the Ava Supais Indian village, on
Cataract creek, three returned rather
than attempt the trail. AT many
places this trail is not wider than
twenty inches. It winds around per
pendicular walls of sandstone that
loom above for hundreds of feet, while
on the other side are the darkest,
deepest canyons in the world. By the
exercise Of great care ten of the party
reached the village, which is inhabited
by 200 Indians, the whole tribe.
The Ava Supais practice polygamy,
each male having three wives. 1t is
understood that they know where to
find rich veins of gold, but they can
not be induced to part with their Sc
cret. At one canyon of the cataract
the Indians explained that no crea-
tuFo but the birds and no spirits but
those of the dead could make success
full passage. Believing that the In
dams wished to keep the prospectors
out of that particular canyon, D. w.
Mooney, of Williamson Valley, tried
to make the descent. He took a
small rope, hardly half an inch in
diameter, tied one end to a bush,
suspended it over the brink, then
taking hold of the rope, was soon
dangling between heaven and the
dark, dismal gorge below. Suddenly
Mooney gave an unearthly shrek and,
letting go his hold, dropped no one
knows where.
