Indians Captnre a Whale.

Three score Siwashes in fleet of
canoes attacked and killed whale Il
few days ago off Cape Flattery, and,
according to the officers of the Nor
wegan steamer Trico!or. the red men
in the vicinity of Neah Bay have been
living high Oh blubber ever since. The
whale had been seen off the cape for
several days. and the expedition to
which the big fish surrendered was or
galiZed and equipped especially for
the chase and capture of the leviathan.
Every canoe carried a dozen harpoons,
and to each harpoon was attached a
tight-blown bladder. Every time n
canoe approached sufficiently near
harpoon was thrown into the whales
tough hide. When the Victoria tug
Lorne came upon the scene the whale
had been hit many times and re-
sembled a monster hedgehog. In addi-
ton to the annoyance caused by the
forest of steel shafts. there We're so
many blaGdcrs moored to his carcass
that, try as he would, he could not sink
and so find at least a temporary refuge
frOra his tormentOrs. When the In
dams had assured themselves Of the
buoyancy of their prey they threw
in few more harpoons with lines at
tached and attempted to head the
whale into Neah Bay. at the same time
using him as a tOwboat for the fleet.
But the big fish was too far gone to be
of much use in harness; So with n few
bombs, the Siwashes torpedoed the
monster to death and hired a tugboat
to tow the carcass into Neah Bay.
They beached the remains and are still
serving free blubbpr to all comers.-

ESKIMO FOLKLORE.

The most striking feature of Eskimo
folklore is its thoroughly human char
acter, says writer in the Interna-
tional Quarterly. In strict sense of
the term the bulk of Eskimo tradition
is not mythology but hero-tales, which
reflect with remarkable faithfulness
the social condition and religious be-
liefs of the people. They treat of visits
of fabulous tribes. of murder and re-
venge. of mercy and recompense. of
feats of shamanism and of witchcraft.
The supernatural enters into them
but only as it enters into the every
day life of the people to whom witches,
guardian spirits Of shamans, giants
and dwarfs are existing realities. In
this sense most Of the Eskimo tales
are true tales taken from life. and
show great lack of imaginative
power.
Setting aside this group of hero-tales
there remain only few entirely dis
connected myths. One of them tells
how woman was mutilated by her
father. who cut off her finger joints
one after the other. From these joints
originated the sea mammals, and the
woman became their mistress. An
other myth tells of the origin of sun
and moon. who in the beginning were
human beings. Il brother and a sister.
and who We're taken up TO the sky.
