Indian Rainmake rs .

All the Indian tribes had. rain
makers, and some are yet left. This
is one of their methods Of operation.
A large body of Greek Indians had
gathered, all decked out in thier best
tinery. Two elderly men retired short
distance and seemed to be mumbling to
each other something like prayers or
inyocations; after some time fire was
made on the bank of the stream, when
the two rain makers gave an order, and
a young man plunged into the river,
which was there very deep When he
came up he had blue catfish in his
hand, which one of the old men took
and threw into the fire, the tribe look
ing on in perfect silence. Then there
was more mumbling accompanied by
various contortions and gesticulations,
when the gathering dispersed 1t rained
that night Perhaps, on the whole,
the Indian rainmaker is more generally
successful than the civilized one &C.
casionally appearing on the frontier in
times of drought, the former having
shrewder and more experienced forecast
of weather probabilities and putting in
his incantations at the right time. IN.
