The Sauk and Fox Indians have been congregating at the Sank and Fox Agency for several days past* to what is termad a "Madteine There are about five hundrad Indkaui in the tribe and about fifty of the better element have an organisation known among the Ia^aiM as theMa%-tah-ne kon which meaaa Indkm MaMmry. New members are only taken in to fill any va­ cancies that may occur by death. When a member of the fraternity dies a meeting of the order is called and some one of the tribe is chosen to succeed the deceased,bat no one outside of the Lodge is awarewfe) tha candidate is, until the day set for the dance. When all are as­ sembled the candidate is placed in the sweat-box, there to remain until he is so weak he is scarcely able to stand alone. The sweat-box is a miniture tepee covered with woolen shawls, heavy blankets, etc., in the center of which a hole is dug in the ground floor in which hot stones, covered with aromatic weeds, are placed. The candidate is di vested of all clothing and caused to kneel within said structure when water is poured over the stones, in order to form a vapor, which process is repeated until all are ready to assemble in the lodge- room proper, which is a structure about 25xSQ feet, made of poles which are covered with canvas. There are two doors in the lodge-room, one faces the East the other the West, and they are not obstructed during the entire cere­ mony, although no pale face or any In­ dian who is not a member of the frater­ nity can approach nearer than ten yards on either side, as a great deal of their work is secret and spoken in a low breath. When all is ready the candi- date is taken out of the sweat-box and clothed in gay raiment when he is as- sisted Stride a horse which is given him by relatives of the deceased whose place he is to tales until his death. He is given the horse ttet ha may be better enabled to do as the daoaased would had not death tiimn him awa#-:7h* ceremony begins at sundown and la&ta until the next, during which time two repasts are served, in which tiki main ditife is Dog-soup. At the first only mem- • bers of the fraternity are eMglbW to par­ ticipate but at the following one they invite their friends to dine with them < The dogs are fattened for Several weeks previous to the Dance, when they are killed by a blow on fchehsakd with a blunt instrument, and believes he woviiaixii^^ Great Spirit should he bleed the caroass. After the death blow has been dealt the dog is singed aver a camp-fire wliaa the chief carver 1|&WM^^toamlntedWolf) proceeds to carve same in severalpieom when they are placed in a pot of water and put on to boil. The odor which arises during the above described pro­ cess does not appear to hurt the Indian 's appetite for invariably aftei such a feast the government physician has several calls to see patients who have partaken of just a little too much dog. For the benefit of those who have never seen dog meat prepared for the table I might add thai* after it is oooked, well done, it looees its offetMiwsittell aad it would be difficult to determine what kind of meat it Was, had you not seen same prepared. Four candidates were taken to the lodge at this meeting, which is rather an unusual occurrence, as one or two is generally the limit; The most interesting feature in the danoe oc­ curred shortly after noon when Mah-ko- sah-toe (who is the principal chief of the Sauk tribe) extracted some medicine from the Otter-skin which he carried, .it was a small bean shaped substance and after making three rounds of the Lodge so that all members could see what he had in his hand he became exhausted and fell to the earth, and as he was fall­ ing he managed to get same to his mouth and he was soon able to arise, thus showing the power the drug pos­ sessed. Then came the tragedy, one of the candidates was struck down with an Otter-skin and was to all appear­ ances dead but when Mah-ko-sah-toe grasped the situation he prayed aloud in his native tongne, and then blew bis breath in the mouth of thefHrostrateform when he was restored back to life, which was to teach the candidate that their medicine was invaluable to their cijan When the tribe had $ut epidemic of amaU-pox in 1899, the government ordered all of the Indian po&essions in the i|̂ ected Indian camps destroyed. They were perfectly *0$^; to lose all except their Sia 8ktoe Baga.(Otter-skias) apd they nurses* tfho fca^chMge^f't«e c4«ttps dis­ infected them thoroughly if^iyQbwed them to keep them.
