HIGHLY COLORED FUN.
0rotesque Sport That Is Part of the
 HoIi Festival.

Grotesque Sport That Is Part of the
 AoIi Festival.
 The curiously childish horseplay of the Hon festival, which Is celebrated annually by the maharaja of Patihla, is described by Mrs. Charles Bertram in "A Magician In Many Lands. "",'The author made the acquaintance Of the famous Hindu ruler during a tour of India and was invited to remain over for the festival.
 Early in the morning went to the club, where l found many of the guests, who were taking part in the ceremony for the first time. We were provided with a complete new suit of Hindu garments, and our dressing was superintended by the maharaja's s servants. We had camels, elephants and victOrias provided for us. I was on an elephant in a kind of box, and we drove in procession to the palace in the native city.
 We were received with great acclaim by the natives, and l was led to be- lieve that it was to be decidedly a dig nified occasion. But l was woefully mistaken. The fun had not begun. Certain formalitles had to be gone through before the signal was given.
 We took our seats in the courtyard of the palace at long table that was loaded with large gilt dishes filled with different colored balls as large as oranges and filled with HOh powder. At d signal the brother of the mahara- ia came to the front of the table and ashamed to the prince, who took one of the balls and threw 1t gently across the table. striking the officer on the breast. ----
 The ball broke and scattered the powder over his costume. Then there was general scramble, and in less time than 1t takes to write hundreds of balls wee flying about, tn fir many cOlored contents scattered broadcast on the crowd. Next baskets of loose pow der were thrown upon us in handfuls.
 It was no use to expostulate. The moment you opened your mouth some body filled 1t with powder. The battle grew fast and furious; when sud denly an enormous stream of water from q fire engine drenched everybody. The colored powders became wet and, min gling together. dyed us all in brilliantly variegated tues.
 After this sort of thing had gone on for half an hour it ceased by mutual consent, and we returned to. the pri? vate gardens of the maha"dja. where We were most unccremOniOusly pitch ed into tank of running water. I was dyed a deep scarlet all over my body. and it was fully a month before the color entirely disappeared from my face and hands.

A few days ago north side physi- clan received a telephone call at his downtown office asking him to hurry home as speedily as possible. On ar rival he was told that his small boy. age three. had found a box of bella donna pellets and had eaten some of them, the wife didn't know how many. The pupils of the youngsters eyes were dilated. which was proof that he had eaten some of the poison.
 The father decided on an emetic and mixed a generous dose of mustard in some warm water. The youngster gulped it down. A minute or so later the father said. Here. Ernest; here's another dose" The boy rebelled. "lf you don't take it I'll lick you. You hear meY' Yes, papa; I-l hear you. Please give me the lickin'."-Indianap- olis News
