SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT PL. LXXXI ANKO] _Pai Gañhíña P'a_ (July, 1890). There is nothing to indicate the name of the moon. In this moon, on July 20, 1890, the agent sent troops to prevent the sun dance, as already related (see summer 1890); there was also a payment of grass money by the cattlemen on the third day of the moon. The record is made by means of the picture of the decorated medicine pole, the three circles for dollars, and the three strokes for the time. This ends his first year of moons. [Illustration: FIG. 204--Pai Gañhíña P'a--Sun dance stopped; Grass payment.] [Illustration: FIG. 205--T'águñótal P'a Sän.] [Illustration: FIG. 206--T'águñótal P'a--Ä´piatañ.] _T'águñótal P'a Sän._ No event is recorded. The name of the moon is indicated by means of a figure intended to represent the antlers of a deer. _T'águñótal P'a._ The artist has tried to indicate the name of the moon, as before, by a picture of the branching antlers of a deer, under the human figure, intended for Ä´piatañ, who went during this moon to visit the ghost dance messiah, as already narrated. (See winter 1890-91.) _Gákiñăt'o P'a._ The moon name is indicated as before. In this month Sitting-bull, the Arapaho apostle of the ghost dance, came to teach the doctrine to the Kiowa, and a great ghost dance was held on the Washita; this was about October, 1890 (see winter 1890-91). The human figure beside the buffalo indicates the name "Sitting-bull." [Illustration: FIG. 207--Gákiñăt'o P'a--Sitting-bull.] [Illustration: FIG. 208--Ä`gâ´nti.] _Ä`gâ´nti._ The moon name is indicated as before. No event is recorded. _Tépgañ P'a_ (January, 1891). It is indicated in the regular way. In this moon the three schoolboys were frozen to death, as already related (winter 1890-91); they ran away from the school on January 9, 1891, and are represented by the figures as wearing hats and holding out a book. Anko drew only two figures, but explains that "everybody knows there were three." [Illustration: FIG. 209--Tépgañ P'a--Schoolboys frozen.] [Illustration: FIG. 210--Gañhíña--Annuity issue.] _Gañhíña P'a._ The moon is indicated as before. The annuity issue was made in this moon, shown by the pictures of a boot and a blanket. This was about the end of January, 1891. _Ka`gúăt P'a Sän_ (February, 1891). The moon is indicated in the regular way, and the rude human figure is intended by the artist for Ä´piatañ, who returned this month (February, 1891) from his visit to the Indian messiah (see winter 1890-91). The two strokes show that he returned, or that the picture was drawn, on the second day of the moon. _Ka`gúăt P'a._ It is indicated as before by means of a budding tree. The agent issued wire for fencing, shown by a reel of wire upon the tree, with a single stroke for the date. _Aídeñ P'a._ It is indicated as before by a tree in foliage. No event is recorded.
