AN INDIAN CRUCIFIED.
kg He Took the Role of Christ in Pas-
sion Ploy.
A despatch from City of Mexico
says: Tiburcio Zambrana, a Tux -
pan Indian, who was crucified at his
own urgent request by worshippers
at the annual Easter celebration of
the crucifixion of Christ by mem-
bers of his tribe near Guadalajara,
has died from lockjaw. Zambrana
took the role of Christ in tho Indian
Passion Play, and as the climax
of his performance he insisted that
he be nailed to the cross instead of
being strapped, as has been the
custom. His death followed as a
result of the terrible injuries caused
by the nails being driven through
his hands and feet. It is believed
that this tragic affair among the
Tuxpan Indians will lead to vigor-
ous measures by President Diaz and
the national Government to pre-
vent the celebration in future.

WOMEN IN SAVAGE LANDS.
Health of Modern Woman Poor
Compared With Savage.
Thcro can bo practically no com-
parieon iu tun matter of 1ieait•a
between Wee savage and cis lazed
woman. 'i.►o latter is Longer -lived,
it is true, but aro 18 sotdutn posses -
ed of tno oxuberaut headn that is
common to the former. Child-
birth 1s a simple thing to the un-
civilized wahuu, and very rarefy
fatal or productive of the train of
diseases common to the modern
woman. After a day or so the new
mother is able to take up her
customary occupations, and she
is never in need of the retinue of
doctors, trained nurses and spe-
cialists that the civilized woman
demands.
The savage woman is usually a
perfect physical specimen of hu-
manity, and by virtue of bearing
heavy Toads on her head acquires
a carriage and deportment that
would have delighted a Greek
sculptor.
A majestic woman, with small
bare feet and grand, swinging, do -
liberate gait, Hibiscus blossoms in
her flowing hair, a wreath of yel-
low flowers falling over her native
garments, Inas a tragic grandeur
of appearance which makes the
diminutive, fair-haired foreigner
trotting along hesitatingly in high -
heeled shoes look grotesque in com-
parison.
Woman the world over has her
hours of ease. She dances, she
sings, she prays to the gods ; she
visits the gossips, she anoints and
decorates herself.
So it, is not fare to advance a
theory that in a state of living
whore house runt is unknown,
where the tax collector does not call,
pipes do not burstwith frost and
the cook does not leave on the eve
of the grand dinner. that woman is
happier than when she has to con-
tend with these difficulties'?
Is w•otnan more settled in life?
is the modern husband better than
the savage? Is woman free or
happier? Well read the daily
papers and decide.

Europe and Asia were covered
