PROFESSIONAL. EATERS.
indians Emplay Men to Consume
Food For Them.

One Of the most striking customs OF
the past that are preserved by the
| Indians OF today Is found among the
tribes on the Devils Lake reservation
IN North Dakota, says the Hygienic
Gazette. Supervisor Wright, Of the
Indian service. gives the following
account Of this peculiar practice;
From time immemorial the Devils
Lake Sioux have adhered to an old
custom in regard to the treatment OF
the guest. According to their ETH
quette it Is the bounden duty Of the
host to supply his guest with all the
food he may desire and as a rule the
apportionment set before the visiting
Indian is much in excess OF the ca,
pacity Of a single man.
mt by the same custom the guest
Is Obliged to eat all that is placed be-
fore him, else he grossly insults his
entertainer II was found that this
practice would work a hardship, but
instead of dispensing with the custom
the Indian Gethod of reasoning was
applied. end uhat is known as the
professional eater was brought to the
front
while the guest is supposed to eat
all that is placed before him. it serves
the same purpose if his neighbor as
sists in devouring the bountiful re-
past the main object being to have
the plate clean when the meal is
finished
1T is not always practicable to de-
pend upon neighbor at table to as
sist in getting away with a large din
ner, and in order to insure the final
consumption Of the allotted portion,
visiting Indians call upon these pro-
fessional eaters, whose duty II is to
sit beside them through a meal and
eat what the guest leaves. The pro-
fessional eaters are never looked upon
in the light of guests. hut more as
travelling companies with a part.cu-
lar duty to perform
"These eaters receive from 81 10 SO,
and even SO for each meal whore they
assist II is stated by the agent at
the Devils Lake reservation that one
of the professional eaters has been
known TO dispose Of Il pounds Of beef
at a sitting That they are capable OF
eating an almost fabulous amount !

STOCKS TACNATED
Fair Activity at Start Gave Way to

Any This Summer.

New York June 30.-There was a
fair degree Of activity during the first
| hour of the stock exchange session to-
lday. Apparently it took about that
length of time to demonstrate to the
satisfaction of professional traders
that there was nothing in the market.
Their tentative operations largely
ceased after that and the market
lapsed into stagnation more profound
than anything that has ben Witnessed
before this summer The holiday in

factor in depressing speculation.

Death From Electricity.

While death is produced almost in
stantly by the passage through the
human body of alternating currents Of
high voltage such as are encountered
in ordinary practice. yet in the cur.
rents of enormous voitages produced
by Mr.. Tesla it is possible for them to
pass through the body without the
slightest injury. It has, of course,
been known that the Tesla currents
are Of extremely high frequency as
compared with the ordinary current,
a. well as of high voltage. but it was
thought that they passed over the
surface of the body rather than
THROUGH It and thus did no damage
