ZULU MARRIAGE RITES.
Ceremony an Interesting Affair and
Lasts Three Days.


Cape Town Correspondent of the Chicago
Chronicle
A wedding in zululand is as great an
event as in Gotham; greater, indeed, for
the ceremonies last three days; a kings
wedding takes a months time. 1t means
finery and feasting, and though one may
not associate the sentiment readily
with a benighted country where wool
grows on mems heads and hair on
sleeps backs" it means love. At least,
sometimes Not even barbarism and po-
lygamy can prevent the growth OF the
strongest of human passions.
They are quite fin de sicle, too, in Zu-
luland, for the girls, if they feel, like 1t,
propose The men are of robuster make
than Americans, or else they have grown
hardened through years of question pop
ping, for if adusky maid doesn't sdlt a
young chief he has the grit to refuse.
That is not always the end of Zulu
girls wooing, though, as the story of a
dark maid and a eoquettish cA-ef will
show. He had been displaying his agility
in the dance She did not know him,
but she went to his kraaI and pleaded
for his affection. He protested that he
hadn't any to give her, but she wouldn't
go away. He sent for her brother, who

durate object of her courtship pounded
her with a stick. Zulu gosips do not tell
how she bore this affront or carried her
point after it, But carry it she did.
The necessary cows were paid her father
and the two were married.
Cows play an important part in Zulu
weddings Tho husband in proportion
to his wealth, pays his father-in-law,
not for his wife, but the right to retain
in his own family the children he may
have. Otherwise the children would be-
long to the family of his wife's father.
A Zulu girl is often a coquette, and
avoids the opportunities of her father,
who, hankering for the cattle she viii
bring, chides her for not marrying When
the girl thinks her father is about 20
suggest a husband for her she usually
runs away TO the kraal of her lover, and
if he has cattle enough and is of good
family preparations for the wedding are
made. Both parties must learn new songs
and dances for the coming event. The
bride gets her stock Of meats, spoons,
dishes, etc, ready for housekeeping. Her
fathers gift is a blanket and always an
OK, which is looked upon as the OK of the
amohlozi ancestral spirits. Its loss by
death would be thought a token of the
desertion of the protecting spirits of her
fathers house.

On the second day the groom contrib
utes to the festivities by Strengthening a
COW. The bride wanders about the kraal
at night and is supposed to be crying
for her fathers home. She tries to run
away, but the girls prevent her. On the
third and last day of the ceremonies the
bride appears bearing a spear in one
hand and dish of water in the other
coming up, singing and dancing, she
throws the water over her husband
sprinkling her brother and sister-in-law
at the same time, as a symbol that from
that time her sway is to prevail in her
husbands household. Then she breaks
the spear and makes a last pretended at
tempt to escape. If she is not stopped at
the gate OF the kraal by young man ap-
pointed for the purpose, it is considered a
disgrace and the bridegroom must paw

The marriage rites are now ended, al
