The Tucson Philharmonic band passed through here Sunday night on it's return home after tour oi couple of weeks in Southern Cali fornia.
 Our Philharmonic Silver band awaited their coming at the depot as also did s number of young people to greet and hear them play.

Feared An Attack

NJ McCasey, an old time miner oi the territory came in Wednesday morning from the Gunsight mining region. He reports the camp in a fourishing condition.
 The Elliott Bros. have 2S men at work developing their group of mines. A twenty stamp mill is now on the way for the above Brothers and it will be only short time before the mill will be running.
 He sa--s that his party, which com prised Henry Barker, Bill Reaves and a teamSter, had a narrow escape from being attacked by small band of Indians while on their way from the mines to Gila Bend.
 The party had left the camp only 8 few miles behind when they passed a camp of twelve Pappago Indians en- camped alongside of the road. They had not gone far when they discover ed the Indians had broken camp and were following them.
 After travelling all day and seeing the Indians had followed them and had kept the same distance away, they became suspicious, and instead of camping for the night as is the habit, they pushed on to Gila Bend. The Indians continued to follow them well into the night when they were lost sight of in the darkness. The distance across the desert from Gun slght to Gila Bend is 75 miles.
 The miners had been paid off at the mine and had several hundred dollars in their possession. The Indians ro doubt knew this and if the party had made camp there Is not question of doubt out when they were asleep the murderous red devils would have mas- sacred them.
 Messrs. McCasey, Barker and Reaves left for La Fortuna mines the same night where they will be en- ployed.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach the disease portion of the ear There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inhamma- ton can be taken out this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars, free.

Is at hand and is gladly welcomed by all, especially those whose duties in life have caused them to greatly run down their system to meet the re- quirements, physical and mental, for ced upon them. With these and others, it is important, whether at home, at the seashore or in the country, that some thought be given to diet and as further assistance to Nature, a good building-up medicine like Hoods SarsAoarilla had best be resorted to.

GIudness Comes

NNTith Q better understanding of the
 w transient nature of the many phys ical ills which vanish before proper ef- forts-gentle eefforts-pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to constipated condi- tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt y removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families. and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness, without facilitating the organs on which it acts. ItiS therefore all important, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, thatyou have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Go. only, and sold by all rep utable druggists.
 If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, then laxa- tives or other remedies are not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most slkillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, then one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction.

After that there is DO telling what form the trouble may take With irritable nerves and poor digestion, a woman IS on the straight road to the grave Women are notoriously negligent in nat ters pertaining to their health Too many of them understand too little about their own physical makeup. They do not un- derstand their possibilities or their h1nits- tions, and they do not know enough about themselves to know when symptom is really serious and when it is not This nat urally makes them overlook the plainest of danger signals. The start of everything is simple The start of so-called "fenale complaints " may be very slight thing in- deed It may be that in the beginning some small hygienic measures would stop the trouble. Certainly at this time, a little bit of the right medicine would stop it. When the trouble becomes worse, it is harder to cure, but still 1t can be cured Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will posi- lively cure any trouble of this character. It may be absolutely relied upon. It affords immediate and lasting relief to woman whose natural modesty has kept her from consulting physicians.

It is mild laxative and a tonic.

Music and Lots of Talk but Silver
 Wasn't Very ''Free."

The Bryan Free Silver Club held its second meeting at the Court House ednesday night.
 The Committee on Music had se- cured the services of the Philharmonic Silver band, and it is well they did, for had the band not been in attend ance, there would not have been a bakers dozen present outside of the officers of the club.
 Several attorneys made short speeches. They were ably assisted by Col. J. Roe Young of the Sacation Indian Agency, who was spending a day in Yuma on visit to his son and business matters.
 When the speaking was over the President called on patriotic Free Silverites to come forward and con- tribute their mite that the people throughout tue breadth of the land might know that Yuma had Bryan Free Silver Club, thoroughly officered and generous to fault.
 But for the first time, the good people of Yuma, kept their silver where the eloquence of the Yuma politician could not reach-their pockets-and $9.5O was the munifcent sum realized.
 This amount was given to the band in payment for their service and the members now say the Committee on Music will have to look elsewhere for music in the future.
