4 Mania Like to Roller Skating that
Seized the People Of Madagascar.

Seized the People Of Madagascar.
In looking over volume the other
day that contained accounts of different
manias that have taken hold of nations
in past years, l came across the follow
ing, which submit to the consideration
of roller skaters and other interested
parties:
In the month of February, 1868, tho
Europeans resident at Antananarivo,
the capital of Madagascar, began to
hear rumors Of a new disease, which it
was said had appeared in tho west or
southwest. The name given to it by
the natives was 'imanenjana, and the
dancers were called "ramaniana
which probably comes from root sig
nifying to make tense. The name did
not convey any idea of its nature, and
the accounts given of it were so vague
as to mystify rather than enlghten.
After time, however, it reached the
capital, and in the month of March be-
gan to be common, At first parties OF
two or three were to be seen, accompa
MED by musicians and other attendants,
dancing in the public places; and in
few weeks these had increased to hun
dreds. so that one could not 60 out of
doors without meeting bands of these
dancers. 1t spread rapidly, as by sort
of infection, even to the remote villages
in the central province of merina, 80
that having occasion to visit a distant
part of the country in company with an
Englishman, we found, even in remote
hamlets and, more wonderful still, near
solitary cottages, the sound of music,
indicating that the mania had spread
even there.
The rapidity of this spread was cer-
tainly remarkable, but not to be COM
pared with what is related of the out
break OF the child pilgrimage of Effort,
when on the 18th Of July, 1887 one
thousand children assembled as if by
instructive impulse, without preconcert,
and unknown to their parents.
The dancing was regulated very much
by the music, which was the quickest
possible. The patients were fond OF
carrying sugar-canes about with them.
They held them in their hands or car
ried them over their shoulders while
they danced. frequently, too, they
might be seen going through their sin
gular evolutions with o bottle of water
upon their heads, which they succeed
ed wonderfully in balancing The
drum was the favorite instrument OF
music. but others were used, and all
were acceptable.
The disease was rarely fatal; still a
few cases of death undoubtedly hap
pened, and these only occurred, so far
as the writer is aware, where the pa
tient was restrained from joining in the
dances. 1t would seem that these per-
sons actually died from pent-up passion
or excitement. The dancing, no doubt,
was so far salutary. The music served
to regulate and control the wild mus.
cular movements that might otherwise
have proved injurious. A most remark
able fact is, that the mere physical ex
ercise, prodigious and long-continued
as it is in this disease, seems perfectly
harmless, and we know of no fatality
connected Herewith. -Ptttsburgh DIS.
