From Modern MrSico.

From Modern McSico.
Buried in the heart of a civilized,
powerful and progressive foreign people
little handful of Indians have lived
for 300 years, and have cOntrived to
keep, during all that time their ma
tional characteristics, their traditions
and their individuality. If YOU seek
them YOU will find them in Amutlan de
los Reyes. village in the state of Vera
Cruz, Mexico. They are known as the
AmatCcas. \ visit to Amallan will
well repay any one who has amy inter
est whatever in seeing curious people
with individual habits, customs and
civilization.
1t is no uncommon thing in Mexico
to find II tribe of Indians that has made
determined effort 10 maintain its in
diVidualty against the encroaChmentS
of Il higher civilizations But the Amu-
tecasare perhaps the only people in the
republic who have succeeded in retain-
ing for themselves what is practically
self government. 1t must not be un-
lcrstooi that they make amy preten-
sions of being Independent of the con-
troll of the federal authorities in McNl-
90 City: They long ago gave up az
hopeless any struggle against the pow
or of the Spuniurd, and later ON the
Mexican nation, and this submission is
responsible for the fact that they have
been able to retain their ancient GUS
toms, habits and modes Of government
MYSTlFlED BY THE SPANIARDS
When the Spaniards, under the con-
queror Herman CorteZ, landed in MeNi-
co, near Vera cruz, ana began the
march To the Aztec capital the emper-
or, Montc2uma, sent several messen-
gers and spies to bring him news of tho
mysterious strangers. Among others
sent was Oceloti, or the Tiger Prince

ng to IAN old ana universally believed
tradition.
Ocelotl brought back a complete re-
port TO the emperor and gave il as his
opinion. from what he had seen 0f the
strangers. that it would require all the
strength and cunning of the Aztec ems
pire to contend against them, Monte
zuma was So angry at this unIavorable
report that ne ordered Ocelotl To he

then been ever successful. Ocelotl,

THEIR INDEpENDENtE.

The people of Amutlan practically
govern themselves today without amy
interference ON the part of the MeNi-
can government, They pay their fed
eral taxes promptly, as they have done
for the past 500 years, under one name
or another but there their duties stop.
They may be said TO constitute II little
Aztec nation in the heart of the MeNi-
can republic. They have their own
hereditary chiefs, their own alistocracy
in direct line, reaching back beyond
the Spanish conquest. They retain
THEN own customs, habits, manner OF
dress and modes OF thought. They are
nominally Catholic but The ancient Az
tee mythology is largely mixed With
their religious beliefs, They have
hundreds OF charms which are supposed
to be effective against certain diseases,
dangers or accidents, and there is u
spirit of some kind connected with al
most every churn, This spirit was,
not so many years ago, am Aztec god
or deml god The Anatera is there,
fore II most curious combination OF
CHRISTIAN and pagan, civilized citizen
ana savage. He has his own schools,
but his teachers are all Amateca indl-
ans. he has his own churches, but his
priests are also Amatecus.
