Comedy, music and dancing fea-
ture the free vaudeville bill offered at
Brandywine Springs Park this week,
and il is proving quite a popularity, in
the judgment of the park patrons. The
dancing craze is spreading all over
the country and Wilmington is no ex-
ception, therefore, the Interpretation
being given at the Springs this week
by Lester and Carter, a very clever
team, is proving highly entertaining,
as well as instructive. This team has
evidently made thorough study OF
the art and has learned to master all
OF the latest approved steps IN the

A <ENICO'S Indians present a prob
MI lem vastly more difficult and
more complex than any the
United States Bureau Of Indian Affairs
ever tried to handle. In the first place
there are more Of them.
There are now 260. 900 Indians in the
United States. while there are more
than 5000. 900 pure blood Indians be-
tween the Rio Grande and Guatemala
besides a larger number of mestlzos, or
mixed bloods.
According to the best figures obtain
able 81 per cent. OF the inhabitants
Of Mexico (about 1900, 900 souls) are
wholly or partly of Indian blood. This
Is fifty times as many Indians as are
now living in the United States.
Moreover the Indians OF Mexico have
been more conspicuous in public affairs
than the Indians OF the United States.
Benito JuareZ, the Mexican patriot who
overthrow the Emperor Macmillan,
was pure Zapotec. Manuel Altami-
rano, the Mexican author and critic;
Huerta and DIR. Urrutia are other In
dams.
The prominence which things Indian
have in Mexico Is difficult for the New
land to comprehend. The MeXicans
hold an annual national festival in
honor of their aboriginal heroes. de-
spite the fact that the dominant ele-
ment in the population is the strain de-
seconded from the Spanish conquerors
The MeXlcans are as proud of Monte
yuma and Guatemotzin as the Amcri-
cans are of the signers Of the Declare
ton of Independence.
Even the national seal comes from the
Aztecs, who, tradition says. were in
duced to settle on the marshy islets
which are now the city OF Mexico by
sign from their gods. an eagle perched
on a prckly pear strangllng a serpent.
Scholars have declared the Aztec cal
endar system was superior To that in
vogue in Europe at the time of Cortez
The Mayas of Yucatan are held by some
students to have been even further ad-
yanced than the inhabitants of the Val
ley of Anahuac, or Mexico.
But the intelligence Of certain Indians
| only emphasizes the completely OF the
Mexican Indian problem. One student
| of the languages of Mexico, which CORE
spond pretty well with the tribal divi
sions, concludes there are seventeen
families OF tongues and $50 dialects
These dialects are not slight variations
however. but present differences sogrea
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-06-07

were never so extensive or effective as
the expeditions undertaken in our In
dian wars. Had the Indians stuck to-
gcther CorteZ might never have con-
quered them. In Spanish times the
tribes were gradually subdued. The
Maya tribes were beaten one by one.
1t is significant that as late as 1900
there was organized Indian opposition
to Mexico. In that year the Mexican
troops took the citadel Of Chan Santa
Cruz at the end Of "A long, hard cam
paign.

great riddle of Mexico.
To get an idea of the best that may
be hoped one might turn to the page
of Diego Duran, the Spanish mission
