The Whip Dance.

Indians frequently, after engaging in
the whip dance, VOW that they viii never
more submit to the ordeal, and mutually
assure each other that their skins have
been made to suffer for the last time.
But an irresistible longing soon seizes
them to again realize the fearful JOY Of
INDUCING in the sport" and the result
is that the dance continues as fashion
able as ever. The young men of the
tribe then, having put on all the inery
they are able to muster, arm themselves
with the terrible maquarri-a peculiar
whip from which the dance derives its
name. This whip Is about five feet IN
length and is manufactured of strong
grass fiber native to the district, bound
around spirally with a strip of thin cane.
In the hands of a muscular Warau it is
capable of inficting wound very little
less severe than that which would be
produced by the downward blow Of a
knife.
When the dance is about to commence
the performers range themselves opposite
one another, waving their whips in the
anu uNbCaf " NLltS Ic>cill-
bling the notes OF birds. Suddenly one
OF them stops, and posing himself on
one leg stretches out the other. remain

Incersoll on California.

In a recent magazine article Mr.. Ernest
Ingersoll, the noted writer, says:
THE climate of Southern California in
winter closely resembles that of Egypt.
Its equability is constant. and its dryness
is proverbial. The only complaint made is
that it is too nearly perfect. Residents
bred in the eastern states confess now and
then that rousing storm would give them
a grateful sensation. But this sentiment
meets with no favor from the man who has
just fled from a superfiuity of wefness and
chilling gales. To him perpetual summer
seems perpetual paradise, and TO the in
valid dreading the advance of disease the
still. arid atmosphere is as the breath Of
life"
The most comfortable way to reach the
Pacific coast is via Santa Fe Route.
