Yaqui Indians Start
Annual Passion I Dance

TUCSON-Beginnin their an
nuaI dances which will reach the
finale during the last three days
of Holy Week, the Yaqui Indians
of the villages north and south of
Tucson afforded an interesting
spectacle for a large audience. The
ritual of the dance, portraying in
its entirety the passion of Christ,
is rigidly observed by the Indians.
many of whom do not know the
meaning of all the figures which
have been handed down to them by
tribal tradition.
The dance is a combination Of
ancient tribal rites and the more
modern Christian influence, and
many of the features included are
purely of pagan origin.
During the last few days of the
Lenten season, the Indians carry
out the sorrowful motif in their
dances, the major portion of which,
for this period, consists in a ritual
which typifies the sorrowing spirit
of tn participants over the coming
cruci1fxion.
At the end of the Lenten season,
the Indians rejoice in memoriam of
the resurrection and after that the
tribal dances-the dances of the
deer, of the bear and of other an
cient deities-are given as symbolic
of the spirit of gladness, which pre-

proximately 5000 pounds of nitro
glycerine in process of manufac-

rical drum protected by brine coils
and steam pipes to assure proper
temperature when the combination
of nitrate and suphuric acid, max
ing nitratic acid, is first intro
duced to and mixed with glycerine
The building also houses the tanks
for the separation of spent acid
from the nitroglycerine.
The nitrator was not destroyed
although partly wrecked. but
everything else in the building
was either destroyed or burned in
the fire which followed the ex-
plosion.
Only one operator was in the
building when the mixture vent
wrong, and he Immediately shut
off the steam pipe, sounded the
warning whistle and ran out of
the building and over the hill to
safety. Two other operators were
several hundred feet away and ran
to places of safety imme eliately
upon the sounding of the warning.
