The official pipe lighter then llgbta a pipe, and hands It to the chief of the priests, who puffs a mouthful of smoko upon the liquid. Filing by in a slow procession each priest does tho same. Then the meal la scattered on top of the liquid, over which a ceremonious Incantation is performed. With this everything le In readineae for the baptizing or ashing of the snakes.

The reptiles are firmly held six or eight Inches from the head, while they roil their bodies around the arms of their captora. Tha humming of the redmen gradually changes to a chant, from a chant to a wall, from a wail to loud song, growing gradually louder and wilder until the singers burst forth into a pandemonium Of shrieks. Six men were bitten during the ceremony one in tho right cheek, three In tha right breast, one on the thigh, and another on tho right arm. Strangely enough none of tho bitten men succumbed, for, following the rcremnny, tha dancer doll their galia and drink am&ztng quantities of an emetic which the tribeswomen have already prepared.

They had once burned prairie grass and mixed the stubble with water, thus obtaining the mixture wli h which they painted the cross. ' The black paint on tbs crucifix meant death and famine and fever. The venerable chief then painted the top of the cross red. signifying blood, Ied by tha old man. the celebrants took a turn at howling after the painting ceremony was concluded, while the squaw who mads tt tore the cross down and the dance was on. Seven days the dales continued with unstinting enemy and fury. Only for brief Intervals the dancers lore themselves away from the magic circle to obtain nourishment. This nourishment was a sort of hot broth made from hundreds of herbs. Those dancers who each day could face the sun, with onty now and then sn interval for the black smoke aud the porridge, and routd lift their voices to the mountain tops, had conquered. They were then highly honoied by the irihesmen, and many rrude tokens of Indian esteem were given them.
