Vancouver, B. c., March 1.-THE

tribes together to give that fortune
away In blankets and provisions.
During the potlactch some whisky

called for Martyrs were asked to step
into the circle. Two young bucks and
an Indian maiden answered the call
and stood near the fire naked while

pieces out Of their arms and legs and
eating bleeding morsels. When the
young savages had dashed themselves
into a mad frenzy, corpses were called
for, and three Indians who had re-
Gently died were placed on the fire,
