Coming down the west track a little above the grounds I noticed a girl about six years old on the opposite track, and I was hoping that she would not get off of it. When the engine was within fitty yards of her she walked to the center of the west track, and that Was enough to cause my hair to stand on end. She stooped, apparently to pick up some- thing. My heart jumped up in my throat, and I did my best to stop the train. To my great re- lef the child juinped nimbly back to the other track, not five yards in front of the pilot. I was sure of striking her, and I exclaimed, ‘Great God! what a narrow escape! "If that was nota miracle I would like to know What is? There 1s not as muclt walking the tracks #bout the camp now as for- merly, but those who do walk on the track seem more careless than ever.

THE SCENES ON TUR RIVER LAST NIGHT AND TO- DAY—THR PROGRAM OF THE RACES—NOTES AND GOBSIP ABOUT THE OARSMEN, &C. ‘The 14th of August has deen a point in the cal- endar to which th> oarsmen of the city have looked forward with much interest for some months. The success of the ragatta today in point of public interest and character and num- ber of the oarsmen participating has fulfilled the expectations of the most sanguine Columbia Boat Club men. ON THE RIVER LAST Stour. The Potomac was alive with boats of all de- scriptions last evening. All of the crews wio are to take part in to-day’s sports were out for aneven- ing spin. All of the rowing was done down the river on the nationl course. Shells, cigs and pleasure boats were flitting hither and thither, and formed an interesting sight to the knots of spectators ifferent boat houses. Specula- tion was rife as to the result of the races Dut there was very little betting. SPECULATIONS a8 TO THE FOUR-OARED SHELL RACE. The greatest interest seems to be attached to the four-oared shell race,which will be rowed at 6:30 o'clock. The Hillsdales, from their reputation and not from thelrappearanec, are generally thought to ve the crew that will first cause the flag to drop at the Mish, aithoush there are many who think that the Ottawa crew and the Eclipse, of New Or- Jeans, stand an equal show with the famous Hills- dales. The Eclipse crew row a very rapid stroke, in mang respects similar to the “get there” stroke of the Iillisdales, As they came up the river last evening they were rowing at the rate of fifty strokes to the minute, but their boat ran on the keel as if held in a vise. The Ottawas row a slower stroke, and, as stated, many think they have a fine show of winning. ‘The Columbia four Tows the pretulest stroke of any of the crews, and although It 1s generally thought they have but a small chance of winning, there {s material in their boat to push them pretty well towards the front. TALK ABOUT THE OTHER RACES. The sentor single race 1s expected tobe a very hot fight. Since the Passaic regatta at Newark, when Dempsey and McKinney had such a close rub, both of those oarsmen have been anxious to meet again. They will undoubtedly watch each other, but in ding so they had better see that Pilkington does not slip past them. In the eight oared race the odds seem to be In favor of the Meiropolitans, but many think that the race will be a very close one. The Full Program of the Races, After the rowing last evening most of the oars- men gathered at the Riggs house, where a meeting of the regatta committee was hil to decide upon the order of races and draw for positions, The program was decided to be as follows, the posi- tions numbering from the Vi shore’: 3 P.M.—DOUBLE SCULLS.

FORT WaASHAKIZ, Wrostnxa, August 1st, 1853, ‘The “Sun or Buffaig Danca” 1s on? of the aborig!- nal customs that is titkept up among the Indian tribes. This performance 1s not, as the name might imply, a festive,occasion. It 13 a religious ceremony, partaking ofthe nature of both thanks- giving and penance; a retura of thanks for bless- ngs conferred by the Great Spirit, and the tofile- tion of torture asa-penalty for sins committed. Itis a custom as oldies ‘the tribes themselves, and Proceeds from deep religious conviction. it Is sincerely believed among the Indians that afMic- 1 tion, and even death, may b2 averted by a pledge to the Great Spirit to give a Sua Dance, and another abiding conviction is that a season of prosperity, or any particular good, should b> fol- lowed by one ot these dances as, proof to the Almighty that His rod children are grateful. 41 was included among a number of invited fuests to witness one of these dances recently. “Poor Flesh,” an Arrapahoe brave, while pros- trated upon ‘a bed of sickness that threatened to be fatal, promised the Great Spirit that if health Was restored to him he would give a Sun Dance, by way of thanks and ition of divine blessing. The dance I propose to describ? was given in pu! Suance of this promise, as “Poor Flesh” recov- e HUNTING THE BUFFALO HEAD. The first essential of the ceremony Is the buffalo head, and it must be that of a bull. Some twenty or thirty bucks were sent out upon the hunt, and, mounted upon their tough ponies, they struck across the Owl creck range of the Rocky mountains and descended into the famous hunting ground of the Sloux—Big Horn valley. The party was eminently successtul. securing, in a very few days, not only the desired buffalo head but meat sufictent to feed the In- Vited guests as well as the camp. Immediately upon the departure of the hunting party the In- dians remaining at home began to perform their portion of the duty imposed upon them by the coming event. ‘They sent runners to neighboring tribes—the Sioux, Crows, Cheyennes, Bannocks and Utes—advising them of the approaching Sun Dance and inviting their precence. By the time the hunters returned with the buffalo head and meat, invited guests were beginning to arrive from all the surrounding country. ‘The whites who hap- pened to be within reaching distance Were not overlooked in the Invitation, and not a few of them, like myself, responded. PICKING BRAVES FOR THE DANCE. It was now time to pick thelr men for this great national dance and feast, for eating 1s no untm- portant part of the ceremontes. The tribe was called tn council, and immediately eighteen braves stepped forward and volunteered to dance during the coming festivities. ‘This 1s no ordinary under- taking, as 1t requires a brave of muscle and grit, to dance for three days and three nights wituout elther food or drink, agit 1s required that the ac- tual participants shall abstain trom rest. and f00d. “Poor Flesh,” to show the Great Spirit that he was In earnest about this dance, began on June 23d to fast, with the intention of continuing it two weeks. It is hardly necessary to say that his hun ger overcame his plety before the expiration of hat period. ‘The dance was now a foregone con- clusion, and on June 2th the order was given to 200 fnely-mounted young bucks to procure neces- Sary poles for the construction of large tepee necessary for the occasion. PROCURING POLES TO BUILD THE MEDICINE LODGE. Immediately the 200 bucks, with one of their un- earthly yells, strucx out for the timber, vieing ‘With each other as to which should be the first to Place a pole on the ground at the place of con- struction. As they swept across the plain, all of them graceful and skilifull riders, the sight wa3 grand and impressive. Two hun tred painted, be- daubed wild Indians, dressed in the gayest of cos- | tumes, mounted on their best ponies, sweeping across the prairie at the bost speed of their horses, yelling as only Indians can, they presented a plc- ture animated and Interesting. - BUILDING THE TENT. The same afternoon three hundred tepees were moved up to the scene of the festival, and so placed as to form a circular barrler around the spot se- lected for the dance. That evening the braves re- turned from the mountains, trailing from their po- nies the poles for the construction of their mam- moth tent. They entered camp with the same sort of unearthly yelling that signalled their de- parture. |The post holes were then dug, and into hem were placed poles, in an upright position, each pole having been cut with a fork at the end, Which stood at least thirty feet in the air. These poles were go placed that they formed a circle of bree hundred feet in circumference. They then measured to the center of the inclosure and dug another post hole, 1uto which they thrust another pole with atleast a dozen forks and from five to ten feet taller than the outside circle. Then from the forks of the posts, forming the circle to the forks of the center pole, they placed long straight Poles, fastening them ‘at each end. Meanwhile the squaws had been cutting brush, which Dor- dered the adjacent river, and had filled the space between the poles forming the circle.thereby mak- ing an immense tent. Over the rafters or root poles they placed pieces of canvas to exclude the Sun, but hot enough tokeep out the light. The tent was now completed and tee medicine-making an. ‘ne Buffalo head was first taken, and after go- ing through a course of medicine, Was fastened to the center pole, Just under the roof, and fixed 80 that It faced the back portion of the tent, that be- ing the portion to be occupled by the dancers. 2 FANCY PAINTING. « The elghteen braves who were to dance were on. hand early on Saturday morning, and, after being stripped, the work of fancy painting began. | Their bodies were first colored yellow, and their | breasts and foreheads were spotted with black, thelr faces being striped with rea from their eyes down under their chins. They now looked hideous in the extreme. The paint so hid them that oniy & few could be distinguished, and they by the pecullar formation of thelr fedtures. Tits patnt- | Ing has to be performed every morning, and on no two days did any of them lodk alike, OPENING OF THE DANCE. + all being ready, a Lange bass drum brought in, and the post of h that of given | to the Shoshones. An old chter was placed in | charge, and he chose fourteen assistants, who Tanged themselves around the drum, cash having a stick, awatting the moment when the ceremonies should’begin. ‘The squaws moved up and formed | in circles around the drummers to help sing, they forming the chorus. The visitors now arrive, and are met at the door by White Horse, an Arrapahoe chief, master of ceremonies, who makes a speech bidding all the friends of the Arrapahoes welcome. ‘dhe visitors distribute themselves around, taking care not to intrude upon the space reserved*tor the dancers. As you look on this pteturesque multitude you can observe the different nations, partly by thelr features and partly by thelr dress. ‘There sits the Crow delegation; all of them are young men, handsome, and have the appearance Of being a brave set'of men. They have come from the Crow agency, Montana, for the special Purpose of witnessing ‘this dance, There are the Cheyennes, from their military agency in the northern part of Dakota. ‘They are the finest- looking body of men here. There are a few Ban— nocks from Fort Hall agency, Idaho. They are not so handsome, thelt features being coarse and rather forbidding. ‘They are, however, very erful, being of large frame ahd muscular. are the Utes, from Unttah agency, Utah. ‘These Men are of ‘small stature, and appear dwarfsh alongside of thelr neighbors, the Bannocks and Crows, They mostly dress in the costume of the white man, and all of them speak English to some extent, some of them speaking it fluently. There are a tnixture of other Indian visitors from seat- tered remnants of tribes, their nationalities being too numerous to mention. THE OPENING CEREMONY, 4 The musicians haying taken their places, thé visitors having been seated, and everything now ready, the medieine man, who, by the way, bears the name of “Medicine Man,” advances and ina loud speech calls the dancers from their tents. ‘They advance to theirplaces and each one deposits his buffalo robe in front of him with apparent carelessness, and yet euch robe so falls that the center forms a smill pyramid. These robes must, accompany the dancers wherever they go. “Sage,” an Arrapahoe brave, who ts the leader of the dan- cers, takes up the raw hide of the bull buffalo, the head of which surmounts the center, and, holding it by one end, sprinkles supposed medicine from the other as he moves ina circle around the uatil he comes to the drum. He then sprinkles his charmed medicingon the drum and follows it by throwing down the bide. This is a signal to the actors in this scene, and the Indians, with a terri- bie yell, begin beating the drum vigorously and singing ina low monotonous tone. Thus is the ance formally deciated open. THE DANCING, ‘The dancers now belngfready,they place a small whistle, made from the leg of acrane, in their mouths and begin to dance, never moving out of the spot in which they started and always keep- ing their eyes fastened On the buffalo head, hang- ing aloft, which faces them. The whistle emits a sound similar to the cry of a wild goose, and at a short distance from the tent one could readily imagine that it really was a flock of wild geese flying overhead. The whistles are fastened around the dancers’ necks and are ornamented with soft, downy feathers from a young While danc- ing the Indians move every muscle in their bodies. They raise thems?ives from their heels to their toes and allow themselves to fall back again, at the same time heaving their chests, working their knees,moving their hands across their breasts and blowing the whiaties The dance from this time peed Ba ae foateaadon. of what I described, ply, iptions occurring pera Epos tote page Byler fatigue a ?

A squaw entera with an armful of presents, such as blankets, calico, beads, etc. and Presents them to the medicine man, who, after Diessinz them, deposits them in front of the dancers. Large pans of brend, meat and coffee are now brought in and handed to the medicine man, who, after blessing them and helping himself, orJers the food to be passed around; but the dancers are not allowed to touch eithkr. More presets ar- rive and more food 1s presented, and soit is kept Up until all save the dancers are fed, the presents, meantime, belag appropristely bestowed. Then same of the leading chiefs go out end return, bearing armsful of saye-brush and wood, with which a huge council fire is built, the pile being Ughted by the medicine man. Standing around this fire,the chiefa, one by one, repeat the exploits performed by their tribes. How they have fought humerous Indian tribes, naming each, and whipped them; how they’ have defeated the s0l- diers in different battles, and how they have stolen horses for years. Indians have been so edu- cated by civilization that they think that some- thing to boast of. At the end of the recital by each the applause ts deafening. Drum-beating and vo- clferous yelling, each Indian trying to yell louder than the other, make up the applause. WINDING UP. ‘The dance lasted for three days, and when Tues- day morhing arrived the number of dancers had been reduced toeight. Their usual custom of cut- tng themselves was not practiced at this dance. This barbarity was omitted through the influence of the agent, who told them the Great Father at Washington was opposed to such customs. The chiefs heard him and respected the Great Father’s wishes. This stopping of cutting and slashing isa gfeat achievement on the Pare of the government, for this 1s the first Sun Dance ever given by the Atrapahoes at which their barbarous customs Were not practiced. Among the spectators were a great many whites, who had come nearly one hun- red miles to witness the dance, and they seemed disappotnted that the cutting was omitte 1. About ten o'clock White Horse stepped to the front, and, in the name of the Arrapahoes, thanked the Great Spirit for the good things he had xiven them, and asked that such goodness and favor be extended them Inthe future. He thanked the visitors for coming, and, turning to the dancers, thanked them for the part they had taken in the ceremo- nies. The musicians struck up another din, in which all joined, and White Horse then declared the dance‘at an end. — ——— The English Sparrow Must Go. HOW A STATEN ISLAND WIDOW CATCHES AND EATS THE BIRDS. From the New York Tribune. An economical widow living in a quiet street at Clifton, 8. L, has made an effective contribution to the general question of whether or not the Sparrows shall be exterminated. Sho eats them. In the rear basement window of her house the lower sash has been removed, and instead a wire contrivance has been placed there. ‘This 13 1n the form Qf a half cylinder, which is so delicately balance® that as 890n as _a sparrow alights on a projecting bar its weizht carries the Wheel halt Way around, when it 1s stopped suddenly by the end striking a projecting knob. ‘That startles the bird, which finds itself carried, by the semi-revo- lution of the wheel, into a large cage inside the Toom. ‘The sparrow finds a score of its kind In the cage, that are kept there as decoys to interest other sparrows in the neighvorhood. A liberal quantity of grain is kept scattered near the out- side of the seductive reel, and a well-filled cup of it rests directly beneath the bar on which the birds hop tor the purpose of procuring a hearty meal; but the movement of the wheel—which 1s very gentle at hrst—transforms the bird into a maker, instead of a partaker, of meals. “Why should I not eat them?” the lady sald to a reporter. “Did not the Lord send the ravens to feed Elijah? 1 know the law forbids killing them, Dut It does not apply to one’s own premises. Be- sides, do they not wilfully intrude themselves in my house? {t takes about thirty of them to make one ple. Itisadelicate dish to eat. The little things are as plump and fat and sweet as any bird known to the epicure. If they were notin such fire condition and did not live 60 well they would Clear the trees of caterpillars and be, too busy hunting food fo fight and make as much nolse as they do, with their chirping and chattering. But there are not very many In this neighborhood, I belleve. I learned to make use of them on the table by seeing my mother do 1t in England,where Uhese cages and reels are quite common. i never entrap them when they have young. It would be cruel to leave the little ones on the nest to starve. But I keep the grain out all the time, and tue old birds bring the fledglings to such an ‘easy reeding ground quite naturally, 80 that I generally get the Whole family finally.” f maki therewith conclude | Assotvrery Prnz RR OO ¥ ¥ L RRO YY & FE Be 038 Y SA E BR E 00 YY oa a Lu BBR.
