oUAINT INDIAN CEREMONY
 TO BE PERFORMED TO-DAY

One Of the most spectacular, quaint and interesting of Incian ceremonies Geronimo, to be held today at Taos, in New Mexico. This festival is ob- served by the aborigines of New Mex ico on the last day of September each year. Utes, ApacItes. Navajos, Mexi- cans and half-breeds from hundreds of miles around gather at Taos for toraary quiet of the lovely Taos val EAy is broken by the hundreds of bands of redskin pilgrims from all over the Southwest who turn toward their Mecca for the festival day of their patron saint. The program of the day begins in the early morning, robe delivers recitation to the null titude. The tribal dances, somewhat toned down in exuberance and e'lThu- siasnn by the presence of paleface o1- ficerS and spectators, are an interest
 ing feature of the day. burt the great est interest centers in the ceremony top of the pole is fastened a live cock, a live sheep and a basket Of all the varieties of fruit and grain grown by the redskin tillers of the soil. The victor in the climbing contest cuts down loose the trophies and casts them down to the crowd. Next come offerings to the gods of the harvest. The festival concludes with a Dount1- full feast, and all who wish may share in the meal. San Geronimo Day has been celebrated at Taos ever since the Indians were converted to Christian ity. and before that time a, harvest festival had been observed at about that time each year by the adherents of the ancient Indian faith.
 The festival at Taos differs only in being more spectacular and largely attended than other harreet-time cele brations held by the "untutored red man. in whateved sections of the Uni ted States. Canada and Mexico they may be found. The festival is ex- pression of the Indian faith in the powers of the unseen world. whether in the Christian heaven or the hap py hunting ground" their fore fathers. As such, these tribal fiestas constitute religious rites for the pro D1tIation of the gods Of the harvest,

NOTES

The s~uffragette postal box o~utrages
have aroused a feeling of bitter exas.
peration in London. The situation is
all the worse because nothing ef~fectuaI
ca be one to stop this widely injur-
ious form of outrage without immense
ing of pillar postal boxes would not
ever suffice, because the corrosive fluid
contained in phials with toppers that
may be handed in across postof1ce
counters without any chance of detec-
ton of their contents. Mrs. Pankhurst
justified this latest campaign in a
speech at Leicester. The home seCre-
tary Is considering fresh prosecutions,
and in the future s~uffragettes impris-
oned will be allowed to starve them
selves to death If they choose. The jail
authorities will simply place the food
In the cells to be eaten or ignored.
