Something OF Their Religious Ideas-An

Tucson, A. T., June 30-Among the
Moquis and the Pueblos Of Arizona /
found quite a mass of religious ideas, and the
Hon. W. H F. Army once witnessed by
stealth some Of their secret ceremonies,
which were quite obscene in character.
Among these a common institution is the
"Estufa," an underground chapel or sort of
prayer cistern. / believe they never
allow visitors to enter it. There
is a little wall around the open
ing, and the initiated 60 down by lad
der, and as they do not talk much about
their religion, very little is known Of the
ceremonies The snake business, however,
is carried on by some of them as it is in
Africa, and do not know any better proof
of incurable superstition than to worship or
credit any wisdom to such a hopelessly
stupid creature as snake. OF the religion
of the wild Indians hereabouts nobody wor-
rie, OF cares much.

OR FITS

This dread malady has only recently
yielded to the all-conquering advance Of
medical science. For years battling tho
skill of the physician, driving the victim to
despair and death, and still q sealed book
to large portion of the profession, this
disease has at length yielded to the hand
of progress When promptly undertaken
and properly treated, 1t can be cured Lett
to take its course. it too often ends in
idiocy, insanity, and sudden death. None
but its victims can appreciate its horrors
Many physicians are able to relieve this
disease. and to canse temporary cessation
of the symptoms but DR.. Albert's method
stands unrivaled In the respect that the
cures he effects are thorough ard peTma-
nrnt. The patient when DR.. Albert has
once pronounced thoroughly cured need
u. yer fear retarn Of the disease. His
cures speak for themselves, and Thousands
OF his former patients throughout the
State will bear him out in this assertion.

NERVOUS
DEBILITY,

Once hardly known as distinct subject Of
medical treatment, has developed TO an
alarming extent In the present age. The
restless, feverish hurry of American life,
the influence of which Is felt even in the
most remote districts, affords conditions
peculiarly favorable for the deyeIopment
OF this distressing affiietion. Among the
symptoms are dull, distressed mind,
partial deafness or ringing In the ears,
often Enormously attributed TO colds occar
sionsl dimness of sight; tired, Iistless
feeling at times when one should feel most
refreshed. as upon the rising In the morn
ing. Other common symptoms are . love
OF solitude, proneness to melancholy
thoughts inordinate bashfulness; nervous
ness sudden twitchings of the muscels In
the neck and ether parts Of the body pain
and weakness in the loIns and back. II
not checked in time the entire nervous sys-
TEN becomes deranged, Its delicate machin-
cry refuses to act, and the result Is mental
imbecility, insanity, death in life, q fate
more horrible than any fern of death. But
If taken in hand In time, its progress can
be stayed, and il not too far advanced, IL
ravages can be repaired. DOCTOR AL

The shooting contest between the Crys-
tai Falls Sharp-Shooters, and the Flor
ence Rifle Club, at the grounds Of the
former on Monday afternoon, was a
decidedly hotly contested affair and the
result was very satisfactory TO the friends
and admirers OF the home team, who did
not shoot as well AS usual, but they ar
rived there, nevertheless i'm fact neither
team held up as well as usual, owing, no
doubt, to the state OF the weather. The
day opened cloudy and foreboding and
about NOON snow began falling and con-
tinued during the afternoon, making it
not only decidedly disagreeable to the
contestants, but ratherd difficult shooting
However, both clubs were on an equal
footing so far as the weather was con-
cerned, and both clubs went i'm with the
determination To win the match-if
possible. Each club shot two strings of
one hundred shots each. At the end Of
the first string the Sharp-Shooters stood
BOZ against 316, leaving "a balance OF
thirty-six i'm favor of the home team
The second string resulted i'm IA score Of
357 for the visitors against $40 for the
home team and "a majority Of eight Tor
the Florence boys, thus leaving, i'm the
grand total, the Sharp-Shooters twenty
eight IN the lead, which is not much OF a
victory, still il is a victory and naturally
enough the Sharp-Shooters feel very
proud OF il. Everything considered the
scores are very good ones and by care
fully studying them, much can be learned
regarding the match and the contestants:
