Tbe whole of their country Is fugged and desolate In contbe extreme, sisting chiefly of desert sand and caked mountain rock, with permanent fresh water In one or two placet only Separated from the rest of Sonora by an almost Impassable desert, and containing nothing to excite tbe Interest or cupidity of the prospector or Mexican, It baa remained unexplored and un visited until quite recent times. Though In tbe surrounding country there are many traces e an ancient civilization, In Serlland Itself there a it no remalne nor any evidence to how that any other race, markedly distinct either In habits or customs from Its present Inhabitants. had ever made their home . there Hence It may be assumed that the Seri did not migrate to tbla part of the world, but are indigenous to the land. Tbe Seri Indians are physically a fins race, rather above tbe medium height, though somewhat slightly made. They are very dark, with long, coarse hair, hut when young are by no means ugly. They have low, quiet volcea, and their language la much more melodious than that of the Yuma or Papago Indiana Their clothing la aomawhat unusual, for they wear a kind of robe of pelican aktna over a short kilt or skirt. These pelican ruga are beautifully made qt between four and eight sklna aewa together with ainewa or deerskin, and are used aa bedding at night Their belts are of woven human hair or vegetable fiber, though snake and lizard sklna are also used tor the same purpose.' The arms, bust legs and feet are usually bare. When It la remembered that theae people own no domeetie animals of any klndv except doge that are really coyotes, and do not cultivate or till the land at all. It will be aeen that they have to depend entirely on hunting to supply them with dress and food. Pelicans are found literally by the thousand. especially round the little Isle Tassne, and provide the Indians with amply sufficient material to make all the clothing and blanketa they are Ukely to need in that hot and almost rainless Aa regards food, they aubaiat chiefly climate. which oq turtles. Dab. molluscs and water-foware eaten raw and during the proper seasons they Joed on the frulta of the various cacti and mea-quit-e beans which grow fairly plentifully In the Bert mountains Scattered over tbe greater portion of the Island are charred oyster shells, which show that they are very partial to this form of "food, and that they use fire to open shell fish of all kinda, aa they do not poasesa any knives. Tkey catch the turtles by harpooning them with a very primitive kind of epear; the latter la made in two parts connected by a fiber rope, to the front one f ufckh a rough point of hardened wood, sione, or, If possible, Iron, la attached Aa soon aa they see a turtle they iUfoach noiselessly from behind and thrust the apear through the shell. The front portion of the spear remains tq the animal, but the turtle cannot escape because of the rope, and it la soon towed to the shore and there broken open, when It la roasted or eaten raw. Fish, which abound In these waters. are caught by means of a fiber line and primitive hook, the latter being very often made from a thorn or piece of bone, though eometlmee the larger kinda of fish are killed with a bow and arrow, a weapon much In use among the Seri Their huts are of the moat primitive description, being made merely of dried brushwood and roofed with turtle shells and sponges. They afford soma slight shelter from the eun, which la purpose, for the heat la always Intense the year round, and 1 suppose that there are few hotter place on earth. Tbe foregoing facts are sufficient to mark the Seri ae very distinct from other North American Indiana1, but there are many other Curious and peculiar custom which they do not share with any other tribes. Their religion I exceedingly Interesting, though aomewhat obscure, and the local character of their gods Is a convincing proof of their long residence In that locality. Their chief deity, for Instance, la the "Ancient of Pelicans." a mythical bird of marvelous wisdom and melodious tong, and their lesser gods are supernatural beings In similar familiar forma Every year, before starting out on tbetr annual expedition to gather fruit of the cacti, they hold their one Important religion festival, at which they make many ceremonial offerings In order that the supply may be plentiful. Their dead are buried In their most elaborate garments with their weapons beside them under a mound of stones These grave are to be seen all over the 8ri country, and bear eloquent.
