fair in love and war;" and the other
condemning the sacrilege and disobe-
.dlence to the commands of Those
Above, who had directed that there
should be no intermarriage. The re.
suit was words; these grew to blows,
and blows to open warfare, and, at
length, the Havasupais drove the
Apaches out from their canyon home,
and ever since there has been the most
mortal hatred and enmity existent be-
tween them.
But the bereaved bridegroom cared
little for anything that TRANSFERRED
lie wanted the woman he had lost, and
even more than for his bride he longed
Tor revenge. This was what he longed
for and dreamed of, and finally reso-
iutely set about to gain. He crafty
laid his plans, changed his appearance
as far as possible. taught his face new
tricks of expression and compelled his
voice to use new tones, and then, going
off to the desert. began his hunt for
his lost bride. He wandered in the
forests and over the high mountains.
He camped in the deep canyons and
ravines, and got lost in the fearful
maZes of the gorges of the Tonic
Basin. Several times he was nearly
captured by hostile Indian foes, and
it required all his skill and craft to
protect himself. Finally his search
was rewarded. He found his foe.
Putting on a friendly guise he wormed
himself into his confidence and be-
came his companion. After weeks of
planning he got his enemy to go away
INTO the northern desert with him.
There, while the Apache was asleep, he
fell upon him and bound him hand and
foot Then as his prisoner he marched
him back to the canyon of the Havasu.
There all the people came to gloat
over his capture and the wise men
were asked to devise horrible and
fearful death. They decided to take
him to the steepest wall of the Grand
canyon, where there is precipice
1000 feet high. Here, one man tax.
ing the wretched prisoner by the hair
and another by the feet, he was swung
! to and fro over the abyss until he gave
7 visible signs of the dread and fear he
j felt within, and then, with yell, he
was allowed to drop and fall, crushed
. out of all human semblance, upon the
cruel rocks beneath.
/ And, said my informant, "to warn
my people forever against having any
thing to do with the Apaches, Those
Above placed upon the wall where the
trail was up which the Apache went
with the Havasupai mans bride, two
| great figures, here shown. One is of
the stolen woman and the other is Of
the thief" These are objects os great
reverence to the Havasupais, who
| name them the .'Wig-h-i-wa," and in
them they read the danger of mans
| yielding to the desires and lusts of the
flesh and intermarrying with those
forbidden. c. WHARTON JAMES.

were too much afraid of the anger of
Those Above to dare more tan lift
their eyes upon the attractive maiden,
but one youth, in whose heart the
fire of Cupid burned with fierce ardor,
resolved to dare everything. if only
he might win her for his bride. Night
after night would he hide in the will
lows by the side of the bubbling
Havasu and tell it of his love to
Pana-ma-hi-ta. He would climb the
steep walls that shut in the small
tribe, that he might overlook the
''hawa" of the object of his adora-
tons. But, alas, he could never tell
her how much he loved her The days
and weeks went by, and he was driven
to a fury of jealous despair, when
he learned that in six more sleeps
she was to marry one of the favored
Havasupai suitors. In his fierce an
ger he climbed the cliffs and rushed
hither and thither on the plateaux
above. He wandered through the
Kohonino forest and out into the
wild wastes of the Painted desert.
Even the coyotes and hawks saw
something strange and amiss in him,
and the gentle doves flew away in
terror as he cried aloud in the an
guish of his jealousy and despair.
Then he wandered back to the ruin"
of the Grand canyon and went down
the secret trail to Hue-thawa-li-the
white rock mountain-and thence to
the roaring observation-disclosures
as he stood looking on the wild, surg
ing. swirling waters of the rapids
and heard their fierce roar in his ears
he shouted and yelled and shrieked
in sympathy with their madness and
told that he himself was torn and
rent with agony at the thought that

Then. suddenly, he became super

the hunt for the maiden began. Tor,
according to their custom. - soon a.
her father began the trading for her,
she was secretly to steal away and
hide, and all the young fellows were
to hunt for her and then convey her
with laughter and jest to the new
home she was to occupy.
They say love lends wings to his
votaries, and no eyes are so keen al
those of bridegroom. But on this
occasion the Cloud People seemed to
have put mist in the eyes Of the
bridegroom, and the Wind People
must have whispered to the Apache
lover, for he, and not the bridegroom,
found the maiden's trail and with tho
speed of the wind itself followed her.
She had crossed the Havasu and was
hidden in the willows on the Apache
side of the stream, and when her
Apache adorer came up with her, she
doubtless began to think, as even In
dian maidens will, that she must pro-
fess an unwillingness to be taken to
the arms of her lover.
Anyhow, it was easy for the Apache
to persuade her to go stealthily with
him around great arm of rocky wall
thrust out into the canyon, and there
steal up precarious trail, which, like
a cobweb, seemed to cross the face Of
the cliff. When they had reached .
good height he babe the maiden pause
and rest, and then. darting back few
steps to place where the trail made
a dangerous zigzag, he loosened two
heavy rocks which had long ago been
prepared for an emergency that might
arise. These rocks fell with crash,
utterly cutting off every hope and pos
sibility of pursuit, and then, with .
shrill yell of triumph, the daring
Apache returned to the now fright
ened maiden and informed her that il
was in his arms, and not in those Of
her Havasupai lover she was to rest
that night. His yell and her echoing
shrek of despair attracted the atten-
ton of the youths below, and to their
surprise and anger, a they looked up,
they beheld the Apache carrying away
the bride of their friend, and they
stood helpless to prevent it.
ITO the trail!' one shouted. Bring
bows and arrows!" cried another.
But they soon saw that neither was of
use. The trail was blocked, and who
could send an arrow into the heart
of a man who held a maiden in his
arms.
Suffice it to say the young Apache,
with many a haunting word and shrek
of defiance, slowly climbed out of the
n he ho
peared, never to be seen or heard OF
for many day.
Then the Apaches and the Havasu-
pals began to argue about the matter,
the former declaring that "All was

A BROTHERS, LOVE.

Lostant, ILL.,, July s.-James Watt,
of this place, by one little act, has
given a splendid example of that
never dying love which exists be-
tween brothers, no matter how far
apart they may be.
Mr.. Watt was a great sufferer from
Kidney Trouble and Nervousness.
He was very much used up, and al
though he had tried a great many
things, he had found nothing that
would in any way relieve him. Some
one suggested Dodd's Kidney Pills.
and he used six boxes. and was COM
pletely cured.
His first thought was for brother
in Belfast, IRELAND. whom he knew to
be afflicted in the same way that
he had been. Mr.. Watt immedia eiy
sent a supply of Dodd's Kidney Pills
to this far-away brother, together
with his recommendation based on
his fortunate experience.

According to the traditions of the
Havasupai Indians, of Havasu canyon
in northern Arizona, they have long
been at enmity with the fierce and
warlike Apaches, who now live in
southern Arizona. In the early DAYS
OF their history the Apaches and
Havasupais are all said to have lived
in peace in the quiet seclusion of this
wonderful canyon home. The Havasu
(Blue Water) flows meandering along
between the willows in the tiny
patches of arabic land formed in the
canyon. and on one side of this
stream lived the Apaches and on the
other the Havasupais.
One of the Havasupai young wom-
en- was gifted by Those Above with
great beauty, and many were the
lovers she had of her own people.
Though the Apache youths looked
upon the beautiful maiden with ewes
of delight and favor, they knew the
direct commands of the gods prohib-
tied any marriage between the two
peoples. Hence their souls were
filed with longing which they knew
could never be satisfied, and it was
no comfort to them to see and
know that the Havasupai youths had
free field in which to win the dusky
