 CHANDLER, Jan. 30.-To use moving picture language, the ''fea- cos was an informal talk given to the guests of the hotel on Tuesday evening by the celebrated author and lecturer, George Wharton James. He spoke, by request, upon the Hoppi Indians in general, and afterwards more specifically concerning the cer- emonials of the snake dance. MT. James is certainly qualified to speak upon the subject, as he has witness ed the spectacle thirteen times, has been admitted by the Hoppis to membership in both the snake and antelope clans and has twice taken part with the other members of the clans in the fifteen days ceremon- ial preceding the dance.
 His story of the washing of the snakes in the undergrown khiva. which included his own handling of a life sized rattlesnake was nothing short of thrilling.
 On Tuesday MT. and Mrs. C. F. Griffeth, Miss Sarah Coleman Brock and Miss Katharine Grittenger made up an auto party to the Roosevelt dam and Globe, taking with them Miss Nellie Carol and Miss Clara Tancroft They returned on We'd nesday.
