Ceremonial Drums
Brought Out Today
Fort Yuteg, N. I)., Aug. 14.?Ceremonial
drumg of the once mighty Sioux
nation?stilled for 57, years?were
brought out today for a ritualistic appeal
for rain to end the devastating
drought.
They will be beaten on August 22,
ut Little Eagle, S. D., when Indians
of four states gather to revive the
ancient tribal sun dance.
Called by Chief One Bull, 84-yearold
Grand Reservation Indian, nephew
of Sitting Bull and once a great warrior,
final plans were made at a council
of "medicine men" from reservations
in . the Dakotas, Montana and
Nebraska.
The chant and drums of the sun
dance have not been heard in the
Dakotas since 1879, said Frank Zahn,
interpreter and historian.
Because the religious ceremony in- ]
volved self-torture and often self-ram
t llation, Zahn said, Indian agents
have banned the rites since the time
redmen were relegated to reservations.
This year permission was given
on the promise that the objection- 1
able features would be omitted.
Edward Milligan, Birmarck arch- '
eologlst and an adopted son of the
' Sioux, said he sat In the council ring at
Little Eagle recently when Chief
One Bull declared he would lead the '
ritual.
The chief vowed before hfs people
a year ago he would serve as the 1
last of the priests for the "greatest '
of all" Sioux religious demonstrations.
Then when drought spread ruin, It
was decided to also make It an ap- ,
peal for rain.
Unusual Blowout
Badly Hurts Boy
Knoxville, Tenn, Aug. 13.?It was
an accident that "wouldn't happen In
a thousand years"?but it happened to 1
2-year-old Edmond Gentry.
Little Edmond, a husky chap for
his age, was rocking one of the rear
wheels of his father's truck yesterday
afternoon, when the tire blew out and
the compressed air shot Into his
lungs with trerlflc force.
The child's lungs were seriously
torn,' it was reported at General hospital
today, where doctors were working
.to save his life. He is the son
of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Gentry. Mr.
Gentry has a part time Job and supplements
his earnings by dray work
with the truck.
The father said today that the boy
had a habit of shaking the wheels
of the truck. The top of the wheels
Is about even with Edmond's face.
It was supposed that he had his mouth
open as he breathed heavily from
the exertion. No grownups were present.
hut the father pieced out a picture
of the accident from questioning
other children and from hospital Information.
Ordinary talcum powder will provide
temporary relief for a slipping
fan belt.
