remark TO counsel:
IF You can show precisely at what

and prove that the prisoner was not
there when he did it he could not pos

NAvAI0S FEAR THE DEAD.
Hence They Get Rid Of Their Bodies as
Quickly az Possible.

AfAAINAI 90 FU@atblNs
One practice Of the Navajos that pro-
notes health among them, however re-
pugnant It may be for us, is their dis
position Of the dead. In the presence
OF the living the Navajo is without
fear. but his terror Of the dead is alb
ject and unreasonlng. The dead are
believed TO be possessed Of malevolent
feelings toward the survivors, with I'M
limited powers for working evil unon
those who carelessly place themselves
within the power of the spirits.
So when any one dies the only anx-
iety of the surviving relatives is to get
rid Of the body as quickly as possible.
II there are any white men living in
the neighborhood an EFFORT is made to
induce them to perform the Offices OF
undertaken. II not. the disposition of
the body depends somewhat upon cir
cumstances. II the hogan-the mod
ern wigwam-is built OF wood IL Is set
on fire aud burned with the body In IT,

outside. the entrance to the hogan
closed up with stones or sticks and
hole made In the wall opposite TO per-
init the evil spirits 10 depart and to
warm passersby that the structure be-
longs 10 the dead
II the death occurred in a rocky
country the body will likely be taken
to some crevice and thrown ia It. It
may be left uncovered to become the
prey Of wolves and coyotes. or sticks
and stones may be cast over e. III

ranza's views, as indicated to the me-

that his party shall furnish the pro-

understood to hold that man Of

actual leader in the revolt, should be
named
