modesty becoming the maid the conjugal fidelity
and loyalty OF the spouse and uniring devotedness
of the mother.
lhe Christian woman is everywhere confronted
by her great model. Mary's portrait gazes down
upon her from the wall. Her name is repeated in
the pages OF the book before her. Her eulogy is
pronounced from the pulpit, affairs and temples are
dedicated in her honor. Festivals are celebrated in
her praise In a word, the Virgin Mother Is in
delibly stamped on the intellect, the heart, the
memory and the imagination of the Christian
daughter.
"The influence of Mary, therefore in the moral
elevation of women hardly be overestimated
She IS the perfect combination of all that is great
and good and noble in pagan womanhood. with no
alloy or degradation.
"Here is equisite beauty. but beauty more Of
the soul than of the body; it delights, without in.
to1Icatlng. The contemplation of her exctes no
inward rebellion, as too often happens with Grecan
models She is the mother of fair love, devoid of
sickly sentimentality or sensuality.
I'm her we find force of will, without pride or
imperiousness We find in her normal strength
and heroism, without the sacrifice of female grace
and honor-a heroism of silent suffering rather
than of noisy action.
Now 1t is quite ordinary to hear of ladies, gen
tie women, daughters of some of country's best
men, not, indeed, initiating DR.. Mary Walkers ex-
eeptional attire, but mounting the rostrum to
harangue their audiences Is it any wonder that a
feeling of sadness creeps one that such things
should be-
''To debar women from such pursuits is not to
degrade her. To restrict her field of action to the
gentler avocations of life is to fetter her as
prations after the higher and the better. 1t is on
the contrary to secure to her not EQUAL rights so
called, but those supereminent rights that cannot
fail to endow her with sacred influence in her own
proper sphere; for, as soon as woman trenches on
the domain of man. she must not be surprised to
find that the reverence once accorded her has been
in part or wholly withdrawn"

tht bishop cases they deemed cured by supernat-
ural means. For three years the bishop locked UP
the report of this commission in his desk watching
the course of events and collecting further infor-
nation. At last the prelate breaks silence. On
the 18th of January, 1862, he publishes pastoral
letter to his clergy and people letter carrying all
the marks of episcopal wisdom and episcopal pru-
dence He accepts the supernatural actually of the
apparitons and the miracle of the flowing waters.
He sanctions the cultus of Our Lady of Lourdes,
and appeals to his people for funds to build a
church In obedience to the request of the Virgin
Mother of God. Now we come to an extraordinary
series of attacks made upon the authenticity of ev
erythng and every person directly concerned in the
apparition and miracles. Bernadette, freed from
the charge of imposture, is now condemned as a
hysteric and of an unsound mind newspaper
published at Lourdes, the Lavedan the organ of the
free thinkers and socalled liberal Catholics, begins
an attack on the sanity of the millers daughter.
In the cafes the club in the lodges, the whole
affair was denounced as visionary ''haucina-
Lourdes physician named Dr. Dorous, practical
man, who determined to do little detective work
in quiet way and on his own responsibility He
took up position by the grotto, in devout atti-
tude to dsarm suspicion, and he watched every
movement of Bernadette when she came to the
cave. Gentlemen" he said one night to his com
panions in the cafe, ''if she be fraud she is the
greatest and most consummate actress in France.
No art belonging to the abest actress on the stage
of Partisan theatre can reproduce the change
that passed the face and form of this peasant
girl when | saw her. 1t was divine ecstacy inca
pable of stimulation. This condition lasted full
quarter of an hour and her pulse, which [ felt
without her giving any sign, was calm and regu-
lar as my own" The cafe habtues laughed at him
On two of his visits to the grotto DR.. Dorous
was accompanied by gentleman named PEstrade
L'Estrade was satisfied he could expose the fraud
and deception. Like the chief of police, this

PATAGONIA
 LITIGATION The Case of an Alleged Premature Settler in Re-fOresta- tiOn In Huachuca and TumOcarOri Reserves.

Patagonia, Sept. 1S.-(Special cor respOndence of the Republican.)-- Saturday a case of forcible detainer was brought before Justice of the Peace Henderson for hearing, hut was refused hearing by the justice on the ground that he had no juris- diction, a question of title to land having been brought into the case. It was the case of B. K. Wilson against Alex Hinson, involving land near Camille The land is embraced in a tract recently thrown open for settlement and Wilson had flied upon on, his filing having been accepted at the land office. Hinson, however, is in possession of the land, having been a settler upon it while it was a part of the reserve. The com plainant holds that Hinson, being on the laRd before it was open to set tlement. was in possession as a tres passer, and the complainant's filing on the land having been accepted by the land office, he is suing for possession. s. F. Noon of Nogales is attorney for Hinson. Others who spent the day in Patagonia in at tendance upon the case were Super visor R. G.

Nogales, Sept. 1S.-GSpecial cores pondence of The Republican, )-The Mexican national holiday was celebrat- ed at Nogales this week with appropri- ate exercises at the Ramirez theater on Tuesday evening, followed by pa triotic demonstration at the plaza at II D. m. At the theater a brilliant as- semblage was gathered One of the striking features of the exercises at the theater was the singing of young ladies in the Mexican national hymn, accompanied by others in the chorus. The plaza was finely illumined by cleo tric lights during the evening and the Mexican city, was in gala dress. Wed nesday morning dawned clear and beautiful, with just enough of the tang of autumn in the air to make the weather ideal.
 One of the chief features of the morning was a ball game between the Nogales team and the team from Guaymas. This game was watched with interest by a good number of spectators at the ball park as likely to

All the sur rounding towns were represented, Ray being practically depopulated for the day. There were many cow boys and prospectors of the nearby hills here also. A very interesting program had been arranged for the occasion by J. P Flores. the presi- dent of the Mexican association, and Carlos Buelna. secretary. consisting of all kinds of races. contests, etc. That was followed by an exciting baseball game between Kelvin and Ray in which Kelvin was the victor by the score of II to 3.
 In the evening the Southern hotel was the center of attraction. a grand ball being held, also a prize waltz at which Mrs. Cullen and Frank Cain came off victOrs
 The day was an ideal one and the Mexicans started the ball rolling very early. as early as ? a. m. The booming of cannon and dynamite was something fierce. The echoes could be heard resounding in the mountains for miles. Everybody was awakened good And early and it brought the Fourth of July back to all the Amer ican element very strongly.

The morning was de- devoted to usual routine of business and in the afternoon all the stores closed up and the town was given over to the celebratOrs. The Ameri- cans took as much interest as the Mexicans and freely donated cash to be awarded as prizes.
 Owing to the official program and record of events being destroyed in the fire the account of events may not be exactly correct. The fire eating and apple eating contests were very exciting and were won by the Sessmas boy and Pete Soliz. Pete Soliz should never have any trouble winning pie eating contests, judging from the exhibition he gave; he could eat dirt, stones, and cardboard just as good as apple pie. The sack race was won by the Sessmas boy in good shape. The girls foot race proved very exciting; there were three con- testants, Georgia Eaton, Virginia Coleman and Pauline Coleman. Geor- gia Coleman. Georgia Eaton was the winner, but the other two were very close at the finish. The boys foot race was won by Missouri. The ladies' spike driving contest proved very exciting. There were four con testants, Mrs. G. Eaton. Mrs. J. Coleman, Mrs. Stewart and Mrs. Big ham. This contest was to drive a 60- penny nail into a 4X4 Mrs Eaton was the victor in this event and Mrs Stewart a close second. The potato race was won by a Mexican boy, and climbing the greased pole was won by the Sessrnas boy. The tug of war was postponed.
 There was large crowd at the races and everybody was feeling pretty good The baseball game was the next event and drew a large crowd. The Ray folks hads big crowd of rooters along to help them win, but it was no use, as Kelvin soon proved itself the stronger. The
