deal of information into his disjointed con.
versation and references to his book gave
the scribe pretty good idea Of the character
of the dance.
THE MooUI TRIBE.
The Moquis are a separate tribe Of Indians,
occupying a tract OF land in northwestern Ari.
iona on the Little Colorado and San Juan
rivers. They are naturally peaceful, but have
been the bitter enemies Of the Apacbes and
Navajos for years, these tribes having attacked
them whenever q chance offered. Thew are
agricultural in their habits and live in stone
dwellings piled together on cliffs, after the
manner OF the Indians Of New Mexico. There
are nine families, the division lines being
kept very distinct. When the Government first
took charge of them they numbered about eiobi
thousand, but since then ravages Of smaIlpox
and famine have greatly depleted their popula-
ton, and in 1872 they were reported at eighteen
hundred and sixty-six. They are extremely
temperate and preserve comparatively high
PREPARING FOR THE DANCE
So much for the Moquis. Now for their dance
This rite is the grand ceremony Of the tribe
and is intended, as has been mentioned az :.
prayer to the divinities for good CROPS. IA in
dicated by the name, snakes bear an important
part in the ceremony, and for eight days pre-
vious to the dance the young men of the tribe
are in search Of reptiles of the right kind and

GUS rattlesnakes, which abound In this "a.
gion, though If there is a scarcity copperheads
are brought in. There cannot be too many IL
would seem, the young men hunting for them
up to the last day. The snakes are stored in
jars and kept in place unknown to all but the
grand medicine man and his chief assistants
They are watched with care that NO harm shalt
come to them. The death of one would be an
omen that would cause CONSERVATION throueh-
out the tribe.
On the day before the dance the snakes are
turned loose into q "pueblo" or court yard
that il formed by surrounding houses. In the
center OF this is rock that stands high from
the ground and small skin tent or lodge sur
rounded with sacred atmospheric The snakes
are corraiied inside Of certain limits on the
other side Of the yard, the attendants keeping
them within bounds BY frightening them with
wands Of eagle feathers, of which the rattle
snake IS supposed by the Moqui to be afraid.
The Indians handle them with the greatest
immunity, carrying them about in their hands
and bringing the fatal mouths dangerously
close 70 their persons with recklsssness that
seems inspired by pleasure. When carrying .
