Fierce Feat Performed By a Tribe I'm
New Zealand.
Two New Zealand medical men
eeme few years ago visited Fiji, where
0ey had an opportunity of witnessing
NE now rare fire ceremony of the ma
nves. 1t was then so rare a fete that
me ceremony was confined to single
family living on an islet twenty miles
from the Fjan metropolis, Suva.
These people were able to walk nude,
and with bare feet, across the white
not, stony pavement in a huge oven.
An attempt was made on this occasion
30 register the heat, bit when the
thermometer had been placed for few
seconds about five feet from the oven.
1t had TO be withdrawn, as the solder
n the coverings began to melt. The
thermometer then registered 2S2 de-
grees. and one of the doctors estima.
ted that the range was 400 degrees.
the fire-valkers, seven in number,
then approached, and in single file
walked leisurely across and around
Ghe oven Heaps Nhircus leaves
were ehen brown into the oven, caus-
ing efouds - steam. and upon the
leaves 80 h the steam the natives
sxanLned ,! the doctors, both before
and .1ser she ceremony. The soles Of
their fs<t we're not thick or leathery,
and were nor in the least blistered.
They showed no symptoms of distress,
and their pulse was unaffected. Pre-
hminary tests failed to show that
there had been any preparation. Both
doctors. while denying that there was
anything miraculous about the ex-
pertinent, expressed themselves as un-
bble to give any scientific explanation
u the extraordira performance.
