INDIAN DEATH CUSTOMS.
Graves OF tho Hopi and tho Hosans Of
the Navaios.

Graves OF tho Hopi and tho Hosans Of
the Navajos.
The Hopi Indian believes that the
souls of all deceased adults go to the
Grand canyon When q man dies
grave Is dug The nearest relative OF
the deceased carries the body to the
grave, places ii in a sitting posture
facing the Grand canyon, erects long
pole between the legs, locks the dead
mans fingers around 1t and fills the
grave. To the top OF the pole. pro-
truding above the ground, he ties one
end of string and leads the other
end In the direction of the Grand can
yon. At the end of four days 1t Is
believed the soul leaves the body,
climbs the pole and with the string to
guide 1t goes to its eternal home in the
canyon.
The Navajos. on the contrary. are
very superstltious about handling dead
bodies. They believe that the evil
spirit that kills the person hovers
around the hogan. as they call their
lodge, awaiting other victims, and a
hogan in which n death occurs Is never
occupied again. Navajo hogans are
always built with the entrance facing
the east When death occurs In one
of them an opening is invariably made
In the north side. Therefore when one
sees hogan with the north side
knocked out he may be certain some
one has died In it.--Dillon Wallace In
Outing.

RIDING THE BUZzARD.
The Riesbird Uses His Bulky Enemy
az an Aeroplane.

az an aeropiane.
People generally associate size and
brute strength with victory, especially
among the lower animals. Many times.
however, this Is far from being the
case. especially In the bird Kingdom.
Among the rice fats of the Carolinas
there abound at some seasons Of the
year tiny ricebirds. birds so small that
1t takes two dozen for good meal.
though bones and all are eaten.
The great buZzard is found circling
over the fats at all seasons. He breads
the time for the ricebird to come. for
he Is then nearly pestered to death. 1t
is a common sight to see one of these
little birds fly up to buZzard and,
after dodging this way and that round
the awkward bulk, finally slight well
forward between the buzzard's wings
on the back Here the tiny passenger
grabs few feathers In his beak and
holds on for grim life. After enjoying
a ride for as long as he desires the
little fellow hops off and is gone before
Mr.. Buzzard Is we'll aware of 1t.
The peculiar part OF the whole thing
Is that apparently the only purpose the
riceblrd has in getting on the back of
the buzzard Is to take free ride. 1t
puzzles every one who chances to see
the little drama to find any other rea-
son, yet the fact remains that 1t Is a
frequent occurrence, and the little
birds seem to enjoy 1t immensely

East Side Mine Under Efficient Management u
Edward Rittenfouse Shows Wonderful Development
LEADING PAPER OF ARIZONA DESCRIBES 1T IN FULL

sbafts are connected by the drift and
COMPRESSOR aud air drills are to be
installed within a short time. At
nreseut there is no water IN the work
;ngs but the Indications are that water
will be struck within short time.
The surprising thing about the
East Side Is that there is such prop
erty SO near Bisbee abont which so
little is known. 1t is being develop
ed in conservative manner and little
has been said ABOUT the Ore strikes.
Bisbee people who have seen the
mine predict that it will be producer
of importance aud will add much to
the output of the district. Already
there has been small rush to locate
claims nearby and a large area has
beeu taken up which will become
ysInabls if the East Side makes good
" h1ch it now promises to do on big
scale.
Since the above article was written
the drift above mentioned from the
100 foot level has been ., tea through
a vein of ore % feet i'll thickness.
This ore body which is pronounced by
experts to be true fssure vein, evil
IDENTIFY extends downward to an in
defiuite depth, widening as it de-
sceuds. The shaft has also been ex-
tended to depth of llS feet aud for
considerable distance has been in ore,
presumably the same vein which was
struck by the drift, or station, from
the 100 foot level, and which dips
towards the shaft. Nothing could be
more encouraging than the conditions
so far developed aud the universal
opinion among mining experts who
have seen the property recently, IS
that the East Side property has every
prospect of developing a mine OF great
value.
Any information desired regarding
the property, or purchasing of stock,
will be gladly gwen by

depth of l20 feet by Mccoy aud he
started the lower shaft getting down
about seventy feet.
A tunnel connection was made with
the upper shaft aud two drifts were
run north and south and ia both
drifts good ore was struck and in one
place a quauity Of very high grade
ore was taken out aud shipped.
Considerable ore was left in place

the showing is such that extensive de-

This ore lays in perfect formula

quantities of free milling gold.
