hawks, the prOudest and most arlstocratic
of the Indian tribes. Her mother is an
English woman, Emily S, Howells, of Bris-
tol. Her grandfather WIS the noted John
Sakayenkwaeghton disappearing MIST,
pure Mohawk of the Wolf clan, who fought
for Britain in the war of 1872, and was for
forty years speaker" for the Six Nations.
The name of her great-grandfather was
Tekahionwakc, but after his conversion to
Christianity. when he was being baptized
at Niagara, Sir William Johnston, who
was present, asked that he might be called
after himself, and this name the family
adopted as their surname.
Miss Johnston Is rather tall and slender,
with clearcut features, dark skin, gray
eyes, straight brows, black hair and n soft,
musical voice. Hers Is n busy, active life,
occupied by household duties and church
work, for she is an ardent member Of the
Episcopal church, SO that literature en-
cages only her leisure hours. Her best
work is accomplished from 10 o'clock in the
evening until 8 ora in the morning, as then
she is most sure Of freedom from inter
ruption. Most of her poems have been
written at a little desk in her own room,
above which hangs shelf containing
copies of her favorite poets chiefly Cnna-
dian and American. She is passionhtely
fond Of canoeing, in which art she is an
adept, and many Of her subjects are thought
out during her solitary padding excur-
sions
In future Miss Johnston intends devot-
ing her pen exclusively to Canadian and
Indian subjects. A visit to Chiefswood is
most interesting, as the family possesses
many curious and beautiful relics inherited
from their dusky ancestors.
Miss Eliza Ritchie's name is better
known in American university circles than
in Canada, though she is purely Canadian,
by birth Nova Scotian. In 1887 she grad
uated from Dalhousie university, Halifax,
with the degree OF 3. L., and tho same year
obtained fellowship Mt Cornell uniyersi'
ty, where she studied for two years, win
ming the degree of Phi. D. and was then
appointed instructor of psychology and
history of philosophy at Wellesley college,
Massachusetts.
Like most learned people Miss Richie is
modesty itself, and can scarcely be induced
to speak of her achievements. Her coun'
tenancc bears the high stamp of intellectu
ality in every lneament. Her fine, soft
wavy hair is drawn smoothly away from g
broad, white forehead.
