A lot Of Supai Indians were in the city
yesterday purchasing supplies, and are
now ON the way back to their village,
which is located seven miles from the
Colorado river, on Cataract creek, in a
canyon the walls of which tower 5000
feet above the valley. They own many
horses and are now putting in their
spring crops. They raise many tons Of
corn, peaches and melons every summer
and are self-sustaining and producers.
In winter they live on the mesas and re-
turn to the canyon in spring, as the latter
place is peculiarly well protected and
adapted TO agriculture. J.. F. Dillon,
who owns mines in that section, is a
member Of the tribe by election, and the
visiting Supais appeared pleased to meet
him.--Courier.
