The peculiar situation thus arising
casts great doubt upon what the ulti-

BE. The board is not bound By the rec
concentrations OF the advisory commit

Mr.. Ashfcrd's name. may decide upon
another man.
Oyster Opposes Ashford.
The opposition 10 the building inspector
vas LED by Capt James F. oyster. IL IS
said. The latter represented the board OF
education upon the committee. Il is be-
leved he favored Appleton p Clark
II. for the appointment. but Mr.. Clark
has frequently said he was IN no sense a
candidate for the position. and would not
accept Il to the detriment Of his private
interests.
The advisory commission was composed

Smithsonian Institution. The large as
sembly room was filled with the students
When the Indians arrived and were
seated in a semi-circle in an adjoining
room the sober American dress of the
Arrapahoes offered somber contrast to
the barbaric splendor of feathers, beads
and gay colors OF the Cheyennes.
Mr.. Mooney gave preliminary explain
alton of the songs the Indians were to
sing and of the ceremonies of which they
were a part. Unfortunately for the pro-
gram. the performers had brought no
drum with them. which always plays an
important part in all their ceremonies. A
sister finally brought in a polished pre-
serving kettle and the dozen or more In
dams looked on with rapt interest while
an Arraphoe moistened a piece of sheep
skin. made it into a drumhead and was
finally able to beat a triumphant tattoo,
which signaled that the performance
could begin.
A young student had already presented
Saudy Cheyenne with tambourine as
substitute, and the quizzical grimace
with which he beat it, drum fashion.
offered conclusive contra diction to the
theory that Indians never smile
Songs Of Battle and the Chase.
In the opening selection both Cheyennes
and Arapahoes knelt opposite each other,
and with many gestures and in minor
tones, sharpened with whoops and cries,
sang in rhythm that seemed to have for
its inspiration a game that answered to
Who's got the button
Other songs were of battle and the
chase and other customs dear to the
heart Of the singers. An Arrapahoe, ac-
companied by the low beat of the kettle
drum. chanted really beautiful rhythm
to the dawn.
At the conclusion of the entertain ment
several of the braves made speeches,
which were interpreted by younger In
dians, each expressing his thanks to the
audience for their applause. Afterward
the delegations were served with refresh
mentS.
A number OF visitors were present.
