GIVE GHOST DANCE Apaches Entertain Soldiers With Grotesque Indian Steps Field Headquarters, American Puni- tive Expedition, Mexico, Sept. 14.— The Apache scouts attached to the American Punitive Expedition came all the way from E1 Valle to field General J. J. Pershing, just before the commander of the expedition left on his recent inspection trip to the bor- der. The dance, weird and picturesque, was witnessed by a thousand soldiers and was held only after painstaking preparations by the Indians. Prior to his first inspection trip which took him to El Valle) the gen- eral had heard many times of the ghost dances the scouts had been giv- ing at their camp and before leaving for El Valle had informed Capt. James A. Shannon, who has directed the des- tinies of the Apaches, that he would be pleased to have them perform for him. Communicated to the Indians, the general’s request caused great ex- citement and they insisted on leaving at once for fleld headquarters. They passed the general en route anl it was only by the exercise of great diplomacy that they were pre- vented from debouching from their motor trucks and giving their dance on the trail. They were persuaded Lo continue their trip, however, and busied themselves during their six- day layover at headquarters by fur- nishing their costumes and securing a new and complete line of vivid paints. The dance, held the night after Gen- eral Pershing’s return from El Valle, was staged on a level piece of ground inside the lines near “Chinatown.” Behind a circle of bales of hay fifty vards in diameter, hundreds of khaki- clad-soldiers gathered. The general was seated in a big camp chair on a low platform. A huge fire of logs blazed in the center of -the circle, sending showers of sparks and great sheets of flame skyward whenever the zealous Apache fireman dashed gaso- line into its roaring vortex. Long before the general was seated, the fourteen musicians uniformed ac- cording to regulations and seated a short distance from the fire, began their chant. Their soloist, Ietsuay, would shout a stanza of perhaps twen- ty words and his comrades would chant a sort of chorus in guttural rythm. It was untamed, untrained and altogether primitive. Accompanying his chant, Ietsuay thumped on a makeshift tom tom—a galvanized iron pail with a wet deer skin stretched across its mouth. For five minutes the prologue con- tinued, then the ranks of the onlook- ers parted to admit the dancers. There were five of them—costumed barbari- cally in trappings and headdresses rioned by their own hands. John Cody led the band, followed by Chow Nonotolth, Saas and Eskibende. ibende was the ghost and his role somewhat of the clown—a , dignified clown. Of the five, he wore the least clothes. Like the other four he ware a mask, cut from a burlap sack. A small head- dress, breech clout, moccasins and a stuffed fawn which dangled against the small of his back, completed his costume. In his hands he carried two red-tipped wands. His body was painted a ghostly gray. The others were attired most elab- orately. Their headgears, carved from wood, painted in bright colors, be- spangled with small mirrors and tip- ped with fluffy white hawk feathers were works of art. Brass studded belts, bits of calico, blankets of vivid hues and a number of small bells that tinkled as they moved, made up the remainder of their dancing clothes. Entering the arena, they filed around the circle in a dignified prom- enade, all except the ghost, who ambled in the rear, executing gro- tesque dance steps to the encourag- ing shouts of the singers. Warmed by the applause of the spectators, the dancers soon increased 1Y exertions. Around the fire they ved, shuffling, swaying, hopping. The fire light was reflected from the mirrors in their headdresses and the brass studs in their belts.

The singers changed the motif of their chant and the five dark figures that circled the roaring flames in- creased their pace. Suddenly the chant ceased, the monotonous thump thump of the tom tom ended with a long roll and the dancers came to a standstill amid a burst of applause. The first act was ove Ten times this was repeated, Tetsuay chanting industriously, = apparently without drawing breath. Toward the last the impressiveness of the spec- tacle was increased by vivid flashes of lightning from three storms in the surrounding mountains. Their fan- in | tastic figures silhouetted against Pa- liver, the | frequently, jorita mountain by the blinding polts, the Apaches scored even more heavily than they had expected. After an hour's exhibition, the dance ended, under orders. Teft to them- selves, the scouts would ha con- tinued for hours, even until they were completely exh ed. No one of the expedition, not even their mentor, Capt. Shannon, knows for what purpose the dance is given nor what is chanted. The dancers dress in secret and hide the accoutre- ments jealously. Certain steps occur but what they symbolize is unknown. “They seem to think it’s pretty,” was the only explanation Capt. Shannon could give of the ceremony.
