FIJIAN FIRE WALKERS.
Stroll Sedately Over Red-Hot Stone
Without Being Burned.
Those who witnessed the corona
tion procession will doubtless recol
lect a small groi-p of copper-colore
soldiers with bare legs and ontstand
ig hair innocent of covering. Th
strange people-Fi.iians--and thei
ancient ceremony of the Vilavorai
%our, or fire walking, were the sub
ject of a paper read by WV. L. Allar
dlyce. C .M. G.. at a meeting of th
Royal Colonial Institute recentil
Adimral Sir N. Bowden-Smith pre
sided.
The ceremony of fire walking, M3
Allardyce explained, is performe
by a certain tribe at the Island c
Bega, and originated in a legend tha
in reward for having spared the lif
of a man he had dug out of th
ground, one Tui Qualita was investe
with the power of being able to wal
over red hot stones without bein
burned. An earth oven is made an
filled with layers of wood and ston
In this a fire is kindled about twelv
hours before the fire walking take
place, and, when the hot -stones hav
been exposed by brushing away th
charcoal, the natives, under the d:
rection of a master of ceremonie'
walk over them barefooted.
The temperature at the edge c
the oven is about 120 degrees Fahrer
heit. while on one occasion, when th
thermometer was suspended over th
stones, it registered 282 degrees an
the solder was melted. Yet. state
Mr. Allardyce, after the ceremon
the natives show no sign of the tei
rinic ordeal through which they hay
gone. By means of a number c
views the lecturer give a realistic ide
of the ceremony as performed non~
adays.
Vice-Admiral Lev:is Beaumont de
scribed a fire walking ceremony a
witnessed by himself. A!thoug
those who took part in it showed n
signs of discomfort, lie remarked tha
apparently they did not like it ver
much.
Replying to questions. Mr. AlIar
dtyce saidl the onyexplanation h1
could give~ of the apparent imimunit
from harm following the process wa
that soles of the feet of the native
were hard-ened to an unusual degre
'Ihrough constant walking on a sand
sil covering coral, which became es
eeedinrg!y nlot undi(er the suni. Ther
was also the element of absolute ix
lief by thle natives i the legend tha
they were proof against fire.

'Birds and Their Songs.
r Tt nav well be donbted if birds ar,
. sical con:iscurs. or have any
- thing like human appreciation of
_ their own or of each other's songs
e My reason for thinking so is this
I have heard a bobolink with a defec
.tive instrument, so that ite -ong wa>
broken and inarticulate 'a parts, and
vet it sang with as much apparenm
joy and abandon as any of its fel
lows. I have also heard a 'hermit
thrush with a similar defect or im
Sfpediment, and yet, too, appeared to
sing entirely to its own satisfaction.
I t would be very interesting to knon~
if these poor singers found mates as
readily as their more gifted brothers.
If they (lid, the Darwinian theory of
"sexual selection" in such matters.
according to which the finer songster
would carry off the female, would fall
to the ground. Yet it is certain that
it is during the mating and breeding
season that these "song combats" oc
cur, and the favor of the fem,le
would seem to be the matter in dis
pute. WVhether or not it be expres
fsive of actual jeoalousy or rivalry.~we
-have no other words to apply to it.
