Part of the Great Show
Were Tibetans in Masks

AS part of this same "tamasha" corps
of Tibetans from the foot of the Himalayas
marched before the Prince in CHASTITY, gro
tesque masks of their own design. Some
we're arrayed as skeletons, and others wore
their tribal fete day costumes, which con-
sist mostly of daubed colors. The fact Is,
Tibetan women would need no masks to
make them grotesque, for, in contrast with
the lovely Nautch girls they appear SO to
the most sympathetic eyes.
In Bikanir one night the Prince saw
another troupe Of Nautch girls. In the
great hall at Bikanir, unroofed and open
to the sky he saw the werdest Of all per.
formances in the Nautch girls repertoire.
Their setting was Illuminated by thousands
Of tiny purple lamps, and the girls wore
gorgeous gold and colored costumes twined
about them to bring out every line and
curve of statuesque loveliness.
And then one of the most beautiful Of
their number executed fantastic sword
dance, treading on spikes, saws and knives
without the least injury or discomfort ap-
parently. Bikanir and barbaric spectacles
seemed enchantingly unreal to the Prince,
but equally enchanting were the gorgeous

of our music show choruses. Manipur
is proud of them, and they are selected for
many qualities. Beauty is one Of these,
Manipur women are the most beautiful In
India. and the most beautiful Of the Mani
pur women are chosen for potential Nautch
girls
But they must have more than beauty.
They must have grace AID ease and 1.-the
ness Of movement Their every gesture
must be effortless, yet unmechanical-for
that is human grace. Moreover, they must
have voices which are pleasing. The dance
tenchnic of the Nautch girls Is somewhat
like the technic Of our ultra modern dane
ers; that Is, the Nautch girls dance Is ac-
complished by sinuous movements of the
body and expressive gestures Of the limbs,
while the stance is practically immovable.
One of the most interesting sights the
Prince of Wales has seen was a prear-
ranged "tamasha" at Calcutta for his espe-
cial benefit, where the pick Of the Manipur
Nautch girls danced before him in SHIN
mering array. The rich fields of Manipur
furnished their richest garments, and the
most beautiful Of the Manipur maidens
wore the glittering garb in eloquent scanti-
ness Not only did they dance, they sang
their native airs.

:
Inside the beautiful palace of
Maharaja of Manipur there are n
strange sights, but none SO strar
to Western eyes as dancing of Il
Maharaja's pretty slave girl
before the royal Prince from
England.

granted to the Prince Of Wales. Smiling

strange and unusual as the lovely, CLAM
orous, hourilike ladies of the sacredly
guarded zenanas into which this charm
ing young man has been permitted to
peep because of the privileges he has as
the prince of Princes"
The Prince of Wales has more adequate
facilities for seeing the wonderful things
of this vast, unknown expanse than any
other man has ever had. The ordinary
traveller can never hope to see the sights
behind the wells" which are brought forth
by the Indian rajas and maharajas in the
hope that they might interest the white
Prince Whatever he may have whim to
gaze upon, the Indian potentates have no
other course than to fulfill, and even an
ticipate, his least desire

Once, long ago, in the days of the Great
Moguls, such dances as the Prince sees on
his traveings were dances where life and
death were the rewards and punishments
The Great Mogulsl How like the title
OF some Oriental fairy tale do those words
sound How like the name OF some unbe-
levable legend! But no part of all the

The Prince VI Wales saw II not so long
ago. He saw there a wonderful sight. He
saw the time old game OF human chess"
a game that lives to exemplify the volup-

throne in the blood red palace high above

Usual Age for Marriage
Is About Twelfth Year

In India the age of marriage for girl
is usually about IL years; for at that age
the Indian girl has attained her perfection
Of physical womanhood The marriage
ceremony is the height Of success to the
Indian bride. On no other occasion than
that of the marriage ceremony can the
woman become the center of an event OF
religious significance. The father Of the
bride prepares the background for the
ceremony, and 1t is the greatest expense
he has to bear in life The father Is dis
graced unless his daughter becomes wife,
The Prince has seen several bridal pro-
cessions and has found some of them most
impressive. In Benares, the sacred city
where the fearsome goddess Kali has her
blood red temple marriage procession ID
a glorious sight. Plaintive music precedes
the procession. Then come belled dancers

whip their bodies as they dance to the

are nearly white. These women
have a caste of their own and
are the most independent in
India. They are not women
Of the zenanas, for they have
duties to perform aside from the

The Manipur Nautch girls are
famous, and the British Prince
has been privileged to see them
at their dancing. The Nautck

with us all whether the 1.-THE

# At any rate the Prince won
and smiled.
Follow the Prince to Baroda
and Udaipur, to Calcutta and
Bombay, to Rangoon and Mandalay.
Wherever he goes the ruling chiefs are
much impressed and completely won by
him. Consequently they exert themselves
far more than Indian princes are wont to
do to give their visiting ruler unusual
insight into the richest Of their life.
In Mandalay few days ago he went to
the Shan camp, where nine Sawbwas-
chiefs-were presented to him. These
rulers had arranged a whole series of
weird tribal dances, more expressive of
their sensuous bearings toward the
scheme of things entire than any written
word-any epicurean Rnbdiydt-could ever
be.
