FESTIVAL RESEMBLES A RIOT
Remarkable Scenes Attending the
Muharram When II Is Held In
PopuIous Hindu City.

The festival of the Muharram at
Udaipur is always big with posi-.
bilities Of trouble. One-fourth of the
population is Mohammedan, the other
three-fourths are mainly Hindu, and
the Mewar Hindu is distinctly of the
vigorous type. The day is made a
general holiday, and the scores of tall
policemen have busy time.
We were given seats on the roof OF
one of the lower structures connected
with the temple of Jagannath, so the
time Of waiting was comfortably pass.
ed. In fact, it was all too short, for
each moment offered its own enter.
tainment, although one needed little
besides the throng itself, filling the
square and overlooking to the neigh
boring balconies and roofs.
Just beneath us was an athletic ex.
hibition-dancing, tumbling and what
not. At one point an old Hajput war
rior entered the circle, and calling
three boys from the crowd, bade them
lie down. When an apple had been
placed on each little brown neck the
swordsman, never interrupting the
rhythmic dance, Glove each apple with
his flashing blade; and the unaffright
ed youngsters ran back gleefully to
their friends.
Just when a Western crowd might
have been growing impatient we heard
the beating of drums and clashing OF
swords mingled with the wild cries
of the devotees. Soon the procession
poured into the square. Surely II
ever festival was calculated to rouse
men to fanatical madness, it was this
AS every one knows, the Muharram
commentaries the death Of the grand
sons of the prophet; and over all is
heard the piercing cry Of, "Hasan
Husain!" The drums roar madly;
wild-eyed priests beat their breasts
another group brandishes cleaning
swords. But the tall policemen keeI
them from tarrying long in any one
spot. and the tazzias move slowly past
