Inherited Diseases..

No fact of nature Is more pregnant with awful meaning than the fact of the inheritance of disease.
 Modern science, which has illuminated 10 many dark corners of nature, has shed T new light on the Ominons words of tho Scriptures, "The sins of the i'athers, unto tho third and fourth generation" 1" Fifty per cent. of cases of consumption, cancer and scrofula, run in families through inheritance. Insanity il, hered. itary in a marked degree, but, fortu- nately, like many other hereditary diseases. tends to wear itself cut, tho Btock becoming extinct. fl distin- guished scientist truly says: "Np organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being the subject of hereditary disease" Probably mort chronic diseases, which permf nently modify the structure and functions of the body, are more or less liable to be in- herited. The important and far-re aching practical deductions from such facts are obvious to refiecting minds, t.nd the best means for preventing or curing these diseases is Q subject of intense in. tsrest to all. Fortunately nature has provided remedy, which experience has attested as infall!bie, and the reme- Ny is the world-famous Swift's Specific, n pure vegetable compound-nsturc's antidote for all blood poisons.

HORSE STEALING.

 in Our Midst9

Have we Q Gang of Horsn Thieves
 On Sunday night Edgar Gibson,
 who has resided here for the past year, lost fine pair of work horses,
 which he had turned loose to graze on the mesa back of Old Town, and about mile from Flagstaff. On
 Monday, when he went to search for them no trace could be found of the animals, and the only clue was the discovery of the hobblea which were on them when they were turn ed out. On Monday Mir. Gibson turned out ten head of horses and mules, and on Wednesday morning, when he went to bring them in, they were missing, and up to this writing, the two men who have been in search of them have been unable to find any trace, whatever. It is said that two men, who have been here for several days, left on night, when the two horses are supposed to have been stolen, and that three other men, who had been around, without apparently | having any means of support, left 'n Tuesday evening, the time the other animals were missing. If ,hese animals have been stolen and 'un of, it will prove a serious loss to MT. Gibson, who is hard working nan, and we understand that they were about all he possessed.
 Telegrams have been sent up and Town the line of the railroad, to ohenix and also to Lees Ferry, on he Colorado river, and it is hoped hat the thieves may be caught and 'rought to justice and the animals ecaptured.

Social Party.


 One of those social parties, which Jas. Black knows so well ..how to get up for the pleasure and enjoyment of his friends, was given by him at his ranch, about ten miles south of town, last evening. A large number were in attendance. The music was fur nished by Jim O'Neil and assistants and was excellent. From the num- Der of expressions of qualification heard from several who attended, everyone must have enjoyed them selves to the fullest extent, and all extend thanks to their genial host, J. L. Black, for the very pleasant evening passed.
