Allison, formerly chief of scouts under General Sheri dan in the Sioux country and for thirty years a dweller among the tribes of that great aboriginal nation, lectured to a small-sized audi ence at Masonic temple last ni,Jit. The speaker is well versed in Indian matters and national affairs in general, lie chose for his subject "The Primitive Indian; His Character, Customs and Life." Captain Allison exploded many of the popular and erroneous beliefs with regard to the Red Men which have been prevalent among the whites, lie torn now Columbus and his crew were the nrst to teach the Indian how to be treach erous, when after inviting the Indians on board their vessel seized them and carried them captives to Spain. He said the belief that the Indian is a thief is erroneous. After spending thirty pears among them he never saw an Indian thief. He referred to the love the Indians have for their dead. He said their love was the same as the white man's love. Their rrode of burial is different from ours, but the respect of the dead is great and t-..e spirit of the rites is the same. When au Indian is to be buried the body is first pre pared and is then carefully wrapped in skins. Four poles are cut and are put in the ground to form a scaffolding and a platform is erected on top upon which the body is laid. The popular belief is that this is done be.a t 1 - . - . 1 .... 1 cause tne maian tmngs mat me spirit of the dead lingers near the body for a long time ana it tne Doay were placed in the ground the spirit would also be imprisoned. This is njt the case. The reason for doing this is b;cause if the body were placed in the ground it would be but a few hours before the wolves, badgers and. coyotes ould dig it up and devour it unless a guard were placed over the remains. Much trouble has arisen between tne Indians and whites bee mse of the latter 's curiosity with regard to In dian graves, which they were wont to desecrate in order to see what is in it. ' i We would be indignant if the Indians despoiled the graves of our dead for the same reason, but what is the difference? W ith regard to re ligion, the Indian worship but one (iod called the Crreat Mvstery, not The Great Spirit. The Indians do not believe in the happy bunting
