With nil tho mysterious and nnclcnt rites
of tho sun worshipers tho Sac and Fox tribe
of Indians on their reservation In Okla
homa, where they stilt practlco tho pagan
rolllon of their fathers, has recently In
stalled a new chief to nil tho placo left
vacant by tho death of Nah-mal-way, who
sickened nnd died In tho growing season.
Nah-Mal-Way, the Spirit Chief, he who hod
passed through many wars without so
much as a scratch, ho who had been deco
rated by tho great palefaco soldier for
quelling nn uprising among somo yount?
braves whoso hearts had been made bad
by firewater, he who could command the
evil spirits to depart and tho good spirit
to arlso, had at last fallen n victim to his
own will. Ho had sipped too freely from
tho bottlo that makes tho old young again
nd with n vision of serpents before him
looking at her, but If tho sun was angry
with tho trlbo then ho would strike the
squaw dead lied Kox went about order
ing the braves to proparo for tho dance
anil Instructing them how to dress and
paint.
One morning when the sun had scarcely
peeped over tho trectops lied Kaglo camo
bounding from his tepee blowing fiercely
upon his medicine whistle. Tho braves, who
had been painted and dressed for this signal
for nearly a week, were out of their tepees
In u few moments nnd racing toward the
danco grounds, to the toutheast of the
Indian village. They ran with nil their
might In order to arrive before tho sound
of the whistle had died In tho echo. Hastily
forming a semicircle, tho medicine men
waited for a second signal. Ited Eagle
called In a shrill volco for his squaw to
follow him. She kneeled Insldo tho curve
of tho circle, while the braves danced and
chanted this appeal:
Ah. ya, tho crow says,
The fox says nh, ya,
)u vll not kill our squaws,
Oh. 1 Hther, do not kill our squaws,
"A1.1 'n'V'o the Sundance,
A e will do right.
Finally Ucd Kaglo stopped his dancing
nnd went with his squaw to tho outer edge
of the dance circle, where he gently shoved
her toward tho tepee. Tho redskins yelled
Joyously, for they knew tlu curse bad bien
removed from tho heads of their squaws.
H still remained to tho tribe, however.

death of Nah-Mal-Way, and yet no chief

ho had pnssed on to the happy hunting
ground. Nab-Mal- Voy was n victim of
temptation. Ho luuld not resist tho cup
that cheers.
Tho taking off of Nah-Mal-Way by nn
ovll spirit was tho causo of squaws la
mentations for many sleeps, nnd tho brave3
went about silently with tho black paint
of sorrow spread freely upon their naked
breasts. Tho mcdlclno men cut their
wrists nnd studied tho (lames from the
sacred candle. Hatlons camo with unusual
regularity, and yet a sense of Impending
ovll darkened tho existence of tho Indians.
The dead chief had surely left a curse upon
them, said Looking Class, an old chief of
tho Fox clan. So Looking Class was called
upon for nn explanation of his words, and
he said:
"My brothers, Nah-Mal-Way was a bad
had been named. Whenever a chief dies
and leaves his curso upon tho trlbo the
selection of a proper man to succeed him
Is Indeed n delicate problem. This curso
must bo removed by tho head medicine
man beforo a now chief can be selected.
Ka-Wan-So, tho head mcdlclno man of tho
tribe and master of ceremonies at all Im
portant dog feasts and mcdlclno affairs,
was not In attendanco at tho sun danco,
having gone into tho hills to commune
with tho Great Spirit relative to tho ap
pointment of a uew chief. Upon his return
ho called tho redskins in front of his lodge
nnd spoko to them In n loud voice: "I havo
talked with tho Great Spirit about this
matter and ho snys I must order a dance
,to mako you all good again. Ho says we
must bury tho dead chief with proper cere
,mony nnd In the meantime I will choose
raised the body nnd carried It to a small
hut, which was to be Its last resting placo.
Tho American ling was hoisted over the
hut to distinguish It from others. Then
tho 200 Indians, as If relieved of a great
sorrow, sang:
Our, Father, hnvr pity on us.
Make us to be wise.
Moke our new chief a good man.
Instiillltiir thf .mv Chief.
Tho chant rang out across the plains
until the wooden grave had been nailed
securely fast, while tho guests of this
strange burial ceremony sat around with
bowed heads. Then Ka-Wan-So gavo a
piercing cry, known as tho "death cry,"
after which all adjourned to tho dancing
circle. This was n smooth place, about a
quarter of a mile square. The Indians lost
no time In getting Into the dance. The sun
was now directly above them and very hot.
They formed a clrclo around two big flres.
Two tom-tom, or drum, beaters sat near
these fires and beat Irregularly, making
no effort to keep time with each other.
Then tho leading medicine men, aided by
tho 200 voices of the braves, chanted an
other opi-cal to the Great Spirit, while the
dancers hopped around tho fire, their bodies
swaying nnd tho paint rolling
from them In tho flood of perspira
tion. Tho fire blazed high as tho Indians
plied on the sncred wood, blessed by the
medicine men. Tho dancers grew moro ex
cited. Somo fell to tho ground. Others
went Into the mcdlclno lodge and were sup
posed to bo very sick. They went through
all sorts of motions, depicting their ngony.
Later possessors of the sacred otter skins,
which most of the dancers wore about their
loins, tore the skins from their bodies and
went about pointing them at tho Indlnns
who were shamming sickness. Theso were
then shot at with tho sacred beans, after
which they aroso and wero pronounced
cured. This celebration lnsted until late
that night nnd was supposed to be the
real Irtroductory to tho Initiation of the
new chief. After tho danco they all bathed
In the river near tho village.
Early next morning tho Indian medicine
men from surrounding tribes began to ar
rive. From tho east came Itunnlng Elk of
the I'oncas, from the south Whistling Dear
of tho Arapahoes, and from tho west Dig
Heart of tho Osages. All of them brought
the sacred paint along, so that they coull
take part In tho ceremonies If Invited.
Other redskins came, until there were S00
In all. Kn-Wan-So called them together
on tho open prairie to tho south of the
grounds used for tho dances. Tho night be
foro a number of sweat lodges had sprung
up near tho place, and In these lodges were
tho new chief nnd his family. After tho
Indians had all seated themselves Ka-Wan-So,
In an Impressive voice, announced
tho natno of the uew chief and called him
forth. Up to this tlmo nobody had known
who was to be chosen. The cholco was a
surprise to all.
Pnrlor .MukIc by the Chief.
Wa-Po-Kc-Sek, n well known medicine
man, nnd quite Influential among his follow
tribesmen, was tho new chief, and when he
appeared there was a general silence. The
new chief was short nnd fat, but quite
weak from threo days' fasting. Ho had been
In tho sweat lodge sweating tho Impurities
of tho common Indian out of his system.
Ho was clad only In a breechclout. Ono of
tho mcdlclno men near him threw a sacred
white otter skin at him and tho new chief
fell as If dead. Then tho two men who led
him In grabbed him by the feet and uncere
moniously dragged him around the lodge,
whllo all tho spectators threw their otter
skins at him. Suddenly ho Jumped to his
feet and, reaching up Into tho air, brought
out n tom-tom. Where It came from no ono
could tell. It was merely a feat of Jugglery
which tho Indians would not try to solvo If
they could. They wnnted to think the Great
Spirit handed tho drum to their new chief,
and tho delusion was accepted as a fact. Ho
then went to tho center of tho danco
grounds und there, with two hugo American
flags flontlng over him, Ka-Wnn-So declared
Wa-Pa-Ke-Sek chief of tho Sac nnd Fox
trlbo of Indlnns and a member of the Otter
Skin degree of mcdlclno men. With bowed
heads the Indians sat around and listened.
When Ka-Wan-So had finished tho tribe
and Its guests adjourned to a big dog feast
nnd ato their fill at tho expense of Wo-Pa-Kc-Sck.
In addition to receiving tho chieftaincy
Wa-Pa-Ke-Sck fell heir to the family of tho
dpnnrted chief. cnnalstlnfT nf thrpn nnunn'e

mcdlclno chief. He drank tho wblto man's
flrownter and blamed us for his dylnij. I
told him tho palefaco had put snakes la
It, and ho would surely die. but ho laughed
at me and said I was no prophet. I tell
ou, my brothors, that ho has left hU
curso upon us nnd wo must havo It tuken
nway or wo will dU."
Then tho Hed Eaglo wns told In a dream
that tho Sun spirit would take tho tribes'
sqaws. Ho mndo a prayer to tho Sun spirit
and wns told that his squaw must lo sncrl
flced to savo tho other squaws of the trlbo.
To mako this spiritual sacrifice ho was to
order the sun danco and placo hlB squaw
In tho midst of tho danco clrclo as nn of
fering to tho sun. If tho pun was not nngry
with them ho would order tho squaw to
got up and leavo whllo tho dancers were
ttho chief ho has Instructed me to. He
1 said that our old chief was a false man
nnd wu must bury him good or ho would
come back again."
' As master of ceremonies he then ordered
tho braves to put on their black paint nnd
i assemble at tho burial grounds at sun
I rlso. There, with tho principle medicine
j chiefs forming u circle about him and the
younger members of tho trlbo seated
' around tho outer edge, Ka-Wan-So called
I upon the Great Spirit to hear them In their
i deliberations. A berry tree, which had
been cut for tho purpose, wob brought for
ward and each ono ato a red berry thcre
' from to drive nway forever the evil curse
of tho departed chief, whoso remains lay
wrapped In a blanket In tho midst of tho
clrclo. After an Invocation tho young men
'of five squaws nnd ten children, will make
up quite a gathering In the Sac and Fox
Whlto House. Hesldes this ho will have the
i nlno members of tho council to feed and
, clothe. As tho Income of tho chief is de
rived from tho rental grounds of tho tribe's
land, ho has sufficient to support his official
household In princely stylo without work.
Not In a quarter of a century, nnd per

of this clan aro rapidly dying off or being

schools set nsldo for them. Some havo been
forced Into allotments whero an Indian soon

ices without interruption by tho whites.
