INDIAN NAILED TO THE CROSS
Aztec Descendant Dies After Excess

Mexican Authorities Interfere in
'4PassIon Play" but Native Play
er Expires in Agony.

Mexico City. April 1S-The authorities
here have been notified OF the death OF
Tibu7cio Zambrauo. a Tuxpan Indian. IN

sion Play given by the Indians during
holy week al the town OF TuXpana, in
the southern part Of this state.
when the time for the crucihxion came,
on Good Friday. he demanded that he be
nailed 10 the cross instead Of lashed. as
has been the custom. Religious enthusi-
asm was at its height. and those in
charge OF the exhibition acceded 70 Zam-
brano's demands. pinning him to the
cross with nails, hastily secured. Almost
Immediately. however, the municipal au-
thorities heard of the matter and, al
though serious trouble threatened for a
while. they finally succeeded IN dispensing
the Indians and releasing the imperson-
ator OF the Saviour
When Zambrano was removed from the
cross 1t was discovered that the nails used
in fastening his hands and feet were
rusty. Lockjaw quickly developed, and
he died IN terrible agony.
The Tuxpan Indians are said to be the
last OF the Aztees. The Passion Play
has been feature OF their observance
Of holy week for many years.
