have been no less true to their origin.
In the middle of the old pueblo Of the
Zuni. says Prof. Kroeber, stands a de-
caying roofless and Quilted Catholic
church, which his forefathers built Of
adobe under the direction Of Spanish
missionaries; but two centuries Of
Christian regime have not influenced
the inward spirit Of the zuni.
mo sooner did Spanish and Mexican
authority relax than the Indian quiet

practices in hidden underground rooms

They wear some Of our clothes, eat
some of our kinds of food and use a
few Of our convenient Implements but
they live, in all essential matters, as
their ancestors lived before Columbus's
day. They know the white men living
among them only by nick-names. Of
their own invention, which may some
times contain a sly sarcasm, and they
count the progress of time, not by our
almanacs, but by the succession Of
ceremOnials arranged by their priests.
They still build terraced houses, plas-
tered with clay, in a fashion that ante
dates history, and cultivate corn BY
hand in sandy soil on which white
farmer would starve. They make their
rude. yet artistic pottery, their simple
garments and their elaborate religious
symbols and decorations, just as they

fathers, and pursue their lives accord
ing to antique ideas with complete dis
regard OF the new civilization about
them.
They are friendly, polite hospitable;
but they ask to be let alone in their
inner life, just as they let their neigh
bors alone. For them their religious
dances are the most important events
in the world. and their faith is not
shaken or their minds altered by any
amusement or ridicule Of discourteous
or unsympathetic onloOkers. They are
simply Indifferent to such things.
There are 16 clans among the Zuni,
each named afterNsome animal or plant.
Descent is traced from the mother.
Homogeneous marriage prevails, but the
wife owns the house and in many ways
holds the whip hand II a wife wants
a divorce she may take a new husband,
install him in the house, and the old
one has to get out. Yet notwithstand-
ing the ease Of divorce. family life and
the institution of marriage are the
bases Of society.
The whole genius OF this singular
people seems TO have expressed itself
in religion. Although white men like
F. II. Cushing have studied the Zunis
for years, and even Joined the tribe as
regularly recognized members. still
much remains that is dark and mys-
FERROUS in their ceremonial life.
