At So'clock & band of musicins forming a sort of orchostraentered and perforned with hardlyany interrption uniil morn- ing. At the moment themusic began the great fire was kindledandin afew moments theentire pile was in flanes “A storm ofsparks flew wpward tothe Theightof a hundred feet o 1more, and the descending ashes fell in the corral like ashower of snow.

These somds continued to grow luderand come neaer, wtil they were heard atthe opening inthe east, and ina second after, ten men havingno clothing onexcept a lion doth, entered. Every mun except theleader bore along, thicl bundle of shredled cedar bark in ewch hand, The lender carred four small fagots of the same materil in his lands, Four times they all danced around thefire, waving their bundles of hark toward it Th lalted in the easty the leader advanced towards the central five lighting one of the fagots, and trumpeting loudly, threw it to the east over the fence of the coral. He performed a similar act atthe south, at the west and at the northibut keforethe northern brand was thrown he 1i with itthe bark bundles ofhis com As eweh brand disppeired ove fence, somo of the spectato lew into their hands andl mude amotion as if tossing some substance after the depart- ing flame.

Then they procecdd t0 aply the brands to theirown nude bodies and to the boliesof their comrades in front of them, no man ever once turning arond. At times the dancer struck his wictim vigorous blows with his faming wands sgain, he seized the flime as if it were it sponge, and, keeping close tothe e pursued, ribbed the badk of the latter for s monents, as il hevere bathing him. In the meantime the suferer would, perhips, catehup with someone in front of him and in turn bathe himin Aame.
