INDIANS MAlDENs WILL
HEAD BEAUTY SHOW

Musxogee. Okla. July 2l-The
good old summer time Ia being
joyfully welcomed by the redskins
Of the new state with the customary
dances. festivals and merry making.
Among the novel features which will
mark the seasons festivities among
tho Indians is a beauty show" to
be held early next month at the new
town of Bromide. Several hundred
Indian maidens have already entered
and the show will doubtless afford
unique opportunity to witness the
most beautiful charmers Of the Okla
homa tribes.
Another feature OF the summer in
Oklahoma in which Poor Lo takes
especial delight is the green corn
dance. This festival, as usual. is
preceded by preliminary busks, at
which the Indians drink concoc.
tion brewed from certain weed.
the secret of the medicine men.
This Ia supposed to cleanse the sys-
tenn and keep the partakers free
from disease.
No good Indian will eat roasting
ears until after the green corn
dance, custom handed down from
father to son for many generations,
and still rigidly observed among q
large number of the fullbloods. For
this ceremony, hundreds of braves as
semble and the squaws cook large
kettles full of corn cut from the cob,
putting in big pieces Of beef and
pork with it. Each Indian has a
bowl, and getting his portion sits on
the ground or anywhere else he can
while he eats. A dance will some-
times last three days. There Is a
feast each day and dance the night
following.
At these dances the trouble occurs.
The Indians. after the severe medical
probation, are in fine fettle. Then
b)otlesgers always manage to get in
= lot OF "4O-rod" liquor and the
fighting begins. Deputy marshals
watch these stump dances closely.
and they usually land several boot
leggers. Ths more liquor there ia
the more fighting. II there are old
scores in an Indian town they are
usually settled at these places because
all the Indians attend and when they
commence to get drunk they pro.
coed to wipe out their differences.

If his wife, Lillian Sturdivant. thinks
more Of \. j. Ponsant that she does

According to Sturdivants own sto-
ry, Ponsant has been very attentive
to his wife. He came out to the
! Sturdivant home and stayed over last
Sunday. Sturdivant and Ponsaut had a
long talk, the upshot OF which was

way too. The next day Sturdivant
said:
