The ssGshost Dance' Of the Wal.
lapais.

The WaIlapai Indians are holding an
other "ghost dance" in Frees wash, 10
wallapai mountains. The dance Is held
by Levy-Levy's band, the last band oi
the tribe TO Join the Messiah craze. This
dance made It's first appearance among
the Wallapais in May Of 1889. The old
chief surrum being the first convert and
the Piute medicine men, conferred the
rights OF the ghost dance" and the first
dance OF the tribe was held at an isolated
point, called Grass Springs, about eighty
miles northeast Of Kingman. The In
dams we're greatly exited at the time and
Whites were afraid that they contempia-
ted an outbreak at that time. Since then
the dances have been held In various
parts Of the county, BY the various bands
and, in August this year, dance which
was attended by all the bands was held
near Cora Springs, about forty miles
north from bare and lasted several
weeks The dance Ia kept up continuously
for several days and is followed by q
feast. The dancers are dressed In white
and dance until they become exhausted
in which condition they are supposed 10
see visions, which they relate 10 the chief
ON coming TO. Chief surrum says, that
on . recent occasion. when he was in a
trance the Christ" put "tyo bits" in his
pocket and Surrum id now on . trip 10
Nevada 10 consult the Piute medicine
men shout the matter. The Wallapaia
are thoroughly imbued with the idea Of
the coming Of Christ, and that the day is
mot far distant when the white man will
be wiped from the face OF the earth and
the Indians will have "full possession
and that all the dead Indians, deer, ante
lopes and ether game will come back, I"
as one of the Wallapsis expressed H..
The present craze evidently had its origin
in Neyads and the Wallapais were
among the first tribes TO accept it. The
Mobave Indians have time and again
been urged TO take part in the dances bat
90 far have refused, and laugh at the
wallapais for their foolishness. The
dances result in the death Of the dancers,
at the August dance, eleven Indians died
from exhaustion. What effect the present
craze will have on the waIlapai tribe is
Of course all conjecture. That they are
in direct communication with all The
tribes north OF here there Is no doubt.
No trouble is however at presens sntic-
ipated With them.

LITERARY NOTES.
The Art Amatuer.

The Art Amateur opens the year with a
New Year number which alone-Shen we
consider not only the valuable information
on art and household matters contained in it,
but the beautiful colored plate Of little
laughing child, aud the ideal head for a
plaque, in monochrome, that accompany it
is worth the price of the whole years sub
scription. This number also contains strik-
ing portrait of Bastien-Lepage, which, on
account of the celebrated painters friend
ship for Marie BashkirtSef, the young Rus
sian artist who has conquered fame at a
bound, will be regarded just now with pecu-
liar interest. 1t is also especially rich in
suggestions and designs for wood-carving
and china-plaiting. Indeed it may be said
that The Art Amateur, from its papers, pro-
fusely illustrated, on both these arts, on art
needlework and brass-hammering, and on the
decoratihn of the home, has become neces-
sity in every household where art is cultivated.
A new feature of the magazine which will be
appreciated by those who have no use for the
colored supplements-which, Notwithstanding
their low price, are most effective for framing
is that it can now be had, with everything
but these, for $2.25 per year, thus making it
the cheapest art magazine published. With
the twenty FIVE colored plates the price is
$500 year; single copy, IS cents. Monta-

TO Miss Mary JOnes.-Jan. as, 1890.

Your heart is free and light Mary,
No mist surrounds your life;
Your sun of hope is bright Mary,
No thought comes now of strife.
All! would 'twere in my power to make
Your life day of pleasure,
No storms of evil e'er should break
Its rich and joyous measure.
But precious one, life is cloud
Though oft its shadows riftcd,
We turn our eyes beyond the crowd
Above which we are lifted.
My eyes look up as the shadows part,
And in my fondest dreaming
| see for you, sweet, happy heart,
A lovely future beaming.
Life may bring many woe, Mary,
That will steep your heart in sadness,
Perchance you'll meet foe, Mary,
| Who fain would mar your gladness.
But look upon the rosy side
Which lends a sweet emotion;
And let your life in beauty glide
Upon life's peaceful ocean.
Scorn not the lowly you may meet,
For oft from humble places,
God raises those who soon compete
In life's most daring races.
And often as It's otherwise,
Which is as it should be.
The humble toiler wins the prize
A rich and lasting victory.
Let not your joyous day, Mary,
Keep your fond heart from loving
The God that is you, stay, Mary,
When oft you would be rowing.
Should sorrow ever fall, Mary,
| Upon lile's stormy sea,
hat God will be your all, Mary,
Fen through eternity.
