TIMID SAVAGES OF MEXICO.
Indians Who Take to the Woods at
the Sight of White Men.
An American who has spent sev-
eral years in the slate of Chiapas,
Mexico, says the Caribes are the most
primitive Indians in southern Mex-
ico.
Their clothing is made of bark
fiber and hows and arrows arc their
only weapons. The hows are five
feet or more in length : the arrows
are well made and feathered with
j bright colored plumage. By means

We, the undersigned butchers ! they manage to stun lords so as to
take them alive, while fish are ob-
tained bv means of very long ar-
rows, barbed all the way.
These people, says Modern Mex-
of Lampasas, agree not to open
our places of business at all on
Sunday. All shops will be kept
open late enough on Saturday
night to accomodate all customers.
We ask all customers to order
Saturday and not expect to get
their meats and vegetables on
Sunday. This agreement will
remain in force until warm
weather next year. The agree-
ment will go into force next Sun-
day, Nov. 18th.

ico, are timid and gentle, running
out of their huts to hide if any
stranger comes near. Few of them
know any Spanish,, and even these
spokesmen rarely visit a town, once
in two or three years seeming to sat-
isfy them.
The Zapotecan Indians on the
west coast seem in al 1 respects the
finest of all the tribes, and they cer-
tainly are the handsomest. When
the girls of the tribe wish to show
great courtesy or respect they reply
to any question by singing the an-
swer, using, any notes they wish.
Another race called Lamaehiks
are as timid as the Caribes. If a
traveler passing through the coun-
try wishes to stay all night they will
say: “We have no room. Got a big
family and some* friends are com-
ing to stay all night. Go on to the
next place1—they will keep you.”
A man can ride 30 miles and hear
the same story at each place lie stops.
The only way one can do is to go
in and,put down his traps and order
the mozo to stake out the horse. If 1
they complain tell them to get opt/

“Come, now,” the bad boy’s moth-
er cried, “it’s time you realized the
futility of struggling against the in-
evitable. Do you know what that !

“Sure,” replied the bad boy. “ItI
means it’s no use for you washin’
my face an' lpinds 'cause they’ll on’y
git dirty again."

.story of the fall of man?
Doubter—.Not altogether. 1 don't
believe there was any serpent, al-
though Eve may have honest! v

apple worm which her fear magni-
fied.

Some curious customs may be ob-
served among these people. One of
these is a “barrido” (literally, “a
sweeping”). For instance, when a
man is dangerously sick his wife will
make a “barrido,” hoping in this
way to save his life.
She kills a fat pig, makes a great
quantity of tortillas, tamales, pichol, ;
etc., and asks all their friends to the
feast. Naturally they are never
loath to accept, and the feasting goes
on for several days. They sweep
the house and yard, and even the
road, spotlessly clean, and sweep,
and sweep.
Then a new cross is put up at
