their ernmOnies by the Indians. OF such "A
nature are the ghost dances and others. Al
though usually orderly and never INDUCED in
with the aVOwed purpose OF war. they have
often awakened the dormant warlikc spirit or
the redskins. and on this account the Indian
agents and officers a; the army posts do all that
they can to prevent them. Hence the dances
grow less numerous each year. and those that
were once INDUCED in ar" 10 longer seen.
The most noted among the Indians for their
dances were the Cheyenne. Arapahoe and Sioux
Indians. The ChippcWaS Of Minnesota ard
Dakota INDUCED in thes" ceremonies to a less
extent thai did most Of their nrighbOrs. The
three tribes first mentioned however. were
noted far and wild for the variety and number
OF their dances. While now the dances are Of
