They live in the most primitive style. Corn.
their main article Of food, is planted by digging
hole with a pointed stick as was done IN the
days Of Abraham. Their history and origin are
blank. as they have no authentic records. and
al knowledge has been handed down by verbal
tradition Their present customs and beliefs
are the same as were observed by their an
cestors long before Cortez arrived in Mexico.
They live in small villages and on their ranches,
where they raise corn. beans and squashes. They
dress in garments Of their own manufacture,
decorated with elaborate designs. The men
wear short tunics. with footwear Of sandals.
The women are clothed in cotton skirts and

thoughts. For this reason most of their cere-
monies are intended 10 .propitiate the gods Of
rain who have control Of the clouds, and all 4
the objects they use il their worship are covered
with symbols Indicating rain. In each village
there are a number Of small god houses dedicat-

which are symbolic Of water and its effects

planting. Each day, however, ne found that the
trees that he had cut down the day before would

this and grew tired of this sort OF thing, but he
continued on bent upon finding out, II possible,

Two Girls Drowned.

Last Saturday evening Mary and
Christina Kacalek, aged IS and 18 re-
spectively, were drowned in the Heart
river a short distance above Eland. An
ton kacalek, their father, was in the city
with his wife during the early part OF the
day. He crossed or the bridge at Dick
inson, and after getting home he hitched
onto his double wagon, took the girls in,
and started north to get some timber.
The rains had brought the river up very
high, but the old gentleman did not
realize the danger in fording until it was
too late. The wagon capcized and the
girls went under. One of the girls came
up once a little below the ford and called
tor help, but there was 10 n to help
her. The current was very swift. The
father came out on the north side, but
the team turned in the river and went
back home.
On Sunday forty or fifty people were
out hunting for the lost bodies which
were finally found in deep place in the
river about a quarter of a mile below the
ford. The bodies we're neal together.
A spring seat which went into the river
with the girls WAS found about two miles
down the stream.
On Monday the remains of Mary and
Christina were taken to the Bohemian
church northwest Of Dickinson where
services were held. Burial took place
in the Green river cemetery.
The Kacaleks have livedin this county
for about fifteen years, and the death Of
the girls is a severe blow to the aged
parents.

One OF the most touching scenes it has
been the writer's experience to witness
occurred at the funeral of the late Mrs.
Deffebach last Wednesday. For three
days messengers had been out seeking
Ralph, son Of the deceased, who was on
a roundup with the H T Ranch Co., but
up to the time Of the beginning of the
funeral services no report had been re-
ceived from the messengers. Just as the
procession was leaving the church Ralph
arrived tired and travel-stained, having
ridden 1870 miles from 10 o'clock the
night before-I7 hours without any rest.
When he arrived in the city he did not
know his mothers funeral was inprogress
and to arrive at the church door under
all these circumstances and meet there
the body Of his mother, and his father
and sisters, was touching in the extreme
and few were the dry yes that Witnessed
the meeting between sisters and brother
at the coffin of the mother. The sad
things Of life are not all in the novels;
more solemn things are taking place in
this sad old matter-of-fact world OF ours
than even poets have ever dreamed.

In the last analysis nobody knows, but
we do know that it is under strict law.
Abuse that law ever slightly, pain re.
