they keep buried and new ones are
made each year. This nation in par
ticular has one odd custom in cOnnec-
ton with its idols. The shell Of an
egg is taken and being broken into
seven pieces it is wrapped In seven
pieces of cotton cloth. Along with
this are seven pieces Of bark, red and
blue feathers and seven grains of corn.
These charms, bound together are
placed. one at each corner of every
persons tract Of land. This will as
sure hountiful harvest and will also
secure the Indians from injury from
their personal enemies. l am not sure
as know only 100000 Of the tribe.
"There are seven gods worshiped
and the eagle, the tiger, crocodile, par
rot and serpent are among them. The
live animals are worshiped, and the
images made are buried. as the pep
pie of the tribe are ashamed TO have
strangers know of this form of wor-
ship.
Village Has Special GOD.
81 was shown number of the al
tars upon which sacrifices to the seven
gods were offered. Every village has
the seven gods, but each village has
in addition one as special god. 1t
is said in ChichOtla that In the church
there is a trained serpent and this Is
the chief god of the village. The peo-
pie who constitute the nation have a
reverence for the serpent which Is
not shown toward any of the other
gods.
Another thing which l found was
of especial interest, and this Is the
fact that every family must have a
black dog. The reason for this GUS
tom, given by the tribe. Is a very
| curious one. 1t Is the belief Of the
people of this nation that when they
die. to reach the promised land they
must first pass through large river.
A person of his own accord cannot
get across unaided. The legend is
that only black dog has the power
to pull the member of the family
across the river and then 1t is neces-
sary for the person to hold tight to
tine uOg's all.
"Along with this foregoing peculiar
notion there Is another, which is q
firm belief and custom as well among
this nation. practiced on the birth OF
a child. At this time ths father
strews ashes all around the house and
| the first animal that p0cSoc .,yor tho
ashes will be the protector Of the
child. When the animal dies the child
also will die"

handsome physically, generally good
laborers, and intelligent. They live
in small straw or temporarily erected
huts and houses, each having only one
room. and although some of the peO-
pie are quite wealthy in their sphere,
all follow the same rules In living and
in their labOrs. The boys are obliged
to do hard farm work at very early
age and they are made to carry great
loads of fruit on their heads from the
time they are six and seven years Old.
This, they say, is necessary in order
that they may become strong and
healthy, and so that they can do the
work of men when they are grown.
This nation of Indians still speaks
its native and ancient language in
