A White Dog Feast Suppressed With Pawnee Bill's Wild West Tt is noeasy matteicontrol seventy- to a hundred Indians; specialty when thev belonc to four or five different tribes. Each tribe has its dances and . feasts, the 1 ' best known being the War Danee, the Sun, the Snake, the Corn andj the dance that invariably takes, place just before, the hunt begins. The most gruesome of all these, how ever, is the White Dog , Feast ox Dance. The government has sup pressed all of tho most vicious of tneset customs, but that does not prevent the Indians from trying to celebrate whenever they can. It seems iust before the Pawnee Bill Wild West left winter quarters to goon the road, a contingent of In dians with the Wild West decided to celebrate the Whith Dog Feast The red men were in a large building by themselves when they got the feast move on. According to the rites of the dance, a white dog is suspended - above them, around which they dance in , their peculiar way, each endeavoring to grasp the liver of the animal with his teetn while it is still alive and embowled.The custom is one of the most hideous and barbarous of all and Pawnee Bill checked it just in time to save the poor canine's life. As it was, it took the chief of police and a squad of . his men" to convince the red men that white-dog feasts do not go in Pennsylvania. mm West Exciting and Thrilling Reproduction, of Medern and Remantic Romantic History.
