FEATS OF FANATICS
Dervishes of the Orient and Their
Curious Practices
SEEM INSENSIBLE TO PAIN.
Th s«« Religious Enthusiasts Cut and
Stash Themselves, and Under Correct
Condition« No Blood Flow»»— Magical
Curaa by tha Shsik.
Much lias been written on the sub-
Jett of ttie astounding things that are
done by dervishes and the apparent In­
sensibility to (>aiu and injury that their
fauatieisui gives them, but the vivid
account given by a . writer in Black­
wood's o f some o f these facts w it­
nessed by himself cannot fall to prove
o f interest
"In Constantinople you may sea at
any time bowling dervishes, who howl
professionally in their worahip. and in
Konla whirling dervishes, who simi­
larly whirl Instead o f howL And upon
the road aud in villages and country
towns o f tbs Turkish empire are to be
met dervlahes of the mendicant orders
— wild eyed, austere men carrying bowl
aud battle as. who wander afoot to
places where most alms may be found.
But those dervishes who lacerate them­
selves as the aim of their ecstasy are
n ot 1 think, to be found in any dis­
trict near the coast or easy o f access.
In only one small town, a long way In
the interior of Asia Minor, did I ever
see one of their performances, and then
it was in the way o f a favor."
A fter describing the long processes
o f preparation by which the necessary
"atmosphere” is obtained, the writer
goes on:
"Cresently two men left the semi­
circle o f dervishes and stood before
the sheik. On them the preparation
had done Its work and they were ready
to begin laceration. The sheik licked
the blades o f two thin dagger-like
knives with bis tongue and handed
them to the devotees. Each immedi­
ately pressed the knife through his
own cheeks. It went In at one side
and the point came out at the other.
Meanwhile the swordsmen leaped and
the semicircle roared and swayed with
redoubled energy.
"Again the sheik licked two knives
and handed them to the men. and
again they pushed them through their
cheeks, this time in the opposite direc­
tion. No blood flowed, aDd the opera­
tion looked as harmless, once yon had
seen It done, as stabbing a Dutch
cheese. The sheik drew out the knives,
wet the ball o f his thumb upon his
tongue, clapped it on the boles, and no
boles could be seen, but merely white
scars.
"X ow . one who has not seen these
or similar things done may think that
some sleight o f hand took place, or.
falling that possibility, that I imagin­
ed these sights, being under strong in­
fluence so to do. I can only offer the
evidence o f my senses. I was within
a distance o f two or three yards when
the cheeks were pierced, looked at
them from two feet with the knives
still in position, and at the same dis­
tance looked at the white scars that a
few seconds before bad been palpable
boles. I f I was hypnotized so were all
o f us. for we saw alike.
"When the display with knives was
over two other men came forward as
candidates for the spiked balls. The
upper and lower points o f the spikes
were licked by the sheik and play be­
gan. The lower point was placed in
the open palm of one hand, the upper
point wus capped by the open palm of
the oilier, and then by a sl'ght circular
movement of the upper hand the ball
was rotated violently
As it did so
short lengths o f chain attached to the
circumference spread out and acted
as a flywheel. With the balls spinning
in this fashion the men began to leap,
throwing them into the air. catching
them with the point on an open palm
and always keeping up the spinning.
" I t was clever in its way. but no
more, and I was thinking it a simple
trick when one man dashed the spiked
point forcibly Into bis head. The other
fellow Immediately followed by thrust­
ing his Into his neck. Both balls fell
over and bung suspended with the
point remaining In the flesh. These
wounds Immediately drew blood. Blood
drawing, however, was not In the
game. It showed something amiss—in
sufficient faith or preparation or both—
and the sheik hastened to stanch It.
His thumb went first to bis infallible
tongue and then to the wounds. The
flow censed under the application, and
other men took up the balls. Some­
times they drew blood and sometimes
not. but all the wounds made were lm
mediately closed by the sheik and left
only white scars. And these, like the
other scars, whether you believe it or
not. presently faded out of sight.
“ It was nearing midnight when all
was over.
In the bazaar the next
morning I recognized one of those who
had used the spiked balls on the previ­
ous evening. He now appeared as an
open faced youngster o f eighteen or
nineteen, with a smile that be could
not supprees. H e said he worked In
the Iron bazaar hard by, making rough
binges and other ironwork. And while
he stood there, smiling and ingenuous.
It needed an effort o f mind to think o f
him as a fanatical dervish o f the previ­
ous night's scene."
