A SHAKER SERVICE.
With Washington Indans-Lida w. Quimby
Writes From Personal Observation,

'Skokomish Res Wash. April. '0l.
The church bell on the Shaker
church peals the hour of worship. 1t
is raining hard The mud is ankle
deep in places. Many of the Indians
live long distances from the churches,
however on my arrival l find from
thirty to forty people assembled.
The church is a small wooden Struc-
ture built after the primitive style Of
our ancestors. A the rear is raised
platform on which is a table covered
with a spotless linen cloth. Above
this hang cOlOred plates of Mary and
Jesus of the sacred heart also small
crucifx: there are other bible pictures
representing scenes in the life Of
| Christ. Midway in the aisle is a sort
Of chandelier made CT Stats Of wood on
which are fixed a score of candles.
| Windows, seats and floor are polished
and busted and swept. The absence
of the bible from the table indicated
no diSreSpect for it, rather lack Of
means to purchase this symbol Of
| Goodness Their leaders are simple
uneducated Indians who neither read
nor write. The whole service, much
| of it in concert. is memOriZed.
| Before the service began the Indians,
ranged, the men on one side the
women on the other were chattering
about crops, fishing, politics, weather,
| domestic affairs and news of the day.
Soon leader steps forward and
kneels before the cross. He is followed
| by others until a Semi-circle of kneel-
| ing men are formed before the alter:
meantime most of the congregation
| knee] in their places. A profound
stiffness reigns as an old Indian leads
in reverent impassioned supplicatiOn
to God, the ''God of our fathers
known of DID," and recognized by
Indians as the supreme Great Father
since the dawn of civilization. He is
followed by another and another in
prayer, the beginning and ending of
each petition being marked by the
sign of the cross. This is followed by
the whole congregation joining in a
chant without words full of weird
barbaric melody, A sermon or talk as
the Indians call it, by the leader or
leaders is followed by general
conference wherein any member may
take part. Women as well as men are
encouraged to talk and pray. During
the service we noticed the shaking
which characterizes the worship of this
sect and is the over visible sign of
conversion. With elbows pressed
against side, and hands extended, the
hands are affected with visible
involuntary trembling or shaking.
Gradually this extends to the Shout
ders the head and body. A ringing
sound is in the ears. The penitent
beats his head or breast and groans
aloud under deep conviction of sin.
At times of revival or when practicing
the healing this attains to frenzy.
The talks during the Sunday services
are simple, earnest, pious pleas for
temperance, honesty, holiness and
right living. The reverent attitudes;
the absorbed devotion; the impassioned
eXhortionS and responses attest to
the sincerity of the members.
After an hour which oftenS leng-
thenS to two the leader gives a signal
and the meeting is closed without
doxology or benediction.
