Having a chance to rent their farm to
advantage they promptly decided one
day TO give up the struggle, and forth
with packed what goods they could not
sell, and without pang said farewell
TO the farm forever. As they had no
place In view, the little wife went ahead
to reconnoiter m Connecticut. New Jer-
sey and Long Island for convenient
abiding place. while the husband at
tended TO the moving.
He chartered car thirty-six feet long
bound eastward for 800, and In one
end stored their furniture, In the other
he made stalls for two cows, one mare,
one pig. fifty hens and turkeys, oats,
corn, hay, salt and barrels Of water.
In the center was an oil stove, a lounge,
table, rocking chair. boxes Of coffee,
sugar, butter, utensils for cooking and for

miles from Portsmouth to Long Island
City in just six days without a change
of cars, being transported from Jersey
City to Long Island by a steamer and
thence to their new home again by rail,
where the Decentralization was most
amusing.
The little wife was the advance courier,
who came ahead to choose a fitting place
to receive the live stock and household
stuff. And there she stood as the cars
rolled In, and it was well that she was
there, as the animals were SO rejoiced to
find themselves on terra frma once more
that they were quite unmanageable.
They dashed about in circles, with
their heels in the air, the mare almost
frantic lest she should lose her colt, the
cow equally alarmed for her calf, the
hens in terrible futter, fearing their
last day had come, and the dog, who
had led quiet life on farm, was ap-
palled with the sights and sounds of a
higher civilization. The red cow acted
as if possessed of an evil spirit. The
railroad men stood with their hands in
their pockets not daring to touch one of
the animals. None of the men engaged
to do the unloading would touch that
vicious red cow" and the great dog,
looking like huge black bear, fright
ened them nearly out of their wits.
But fortunately our heroine was there,
and the animals knew her voice, and
while the young man was struggling with
the contents of the car she at length re-
stored order outside, assuring the men
that the animals would not hurt them,
that they were only happy to find them
selves on solid ground once more. She
took the red COW by the horn and led
the procession through a retired street;
then came the mare and her colt, next
the cow and her calf, then a man with
pig with a rope around its leg; another
had the dog by a chain; then came
hens in large coop on handcart, then
wagons loaded with furniture, lumber
and barrels, with the master on the last

STILL LOYAL TO HIS TRIBE.

An Educated Mohawk Indian Who Has
Attained Wide Celebrity.
Of all the self made men of America
few have won their way to success
against greater difficulties than has Or
onhyatekha, of Canada Oronhyatekha
is a full blooded Mohawk Indian, born to
the rank Of chief among the band upon
the reserve near Brantford, Ont His
people were among those who upheld the
cause of Britain during the Revolution
airy war and who, under their great chief,
Thyendenaga, retreated from their set
Element in the valley of the river which
bore their name and settled IN Canada.
Oronhyatekha had no advantages over
other Indians, except in an Unsuitable
thirst for learning and never failing
power of hard work. He got his early
education in the training school for the
children of the reserve, which education
included an apprenticeship to the trade
of shoemaking. His parents expected
him to work at this trade, but he ran
away from home and became pupil in
the Wesleyan academy at Wilbraham,
Mass. He subsequently studied at Ken
yon college, in Gambler, O., and at the
Toronto university.
When the Prince Of Wales made the
tour of the Canadian provinces in 1860
he visited the Grand River reserve.
Oronhyatekha was selected by the coun-
Gil of chiefs to present the address to the
son of the "Great Mother" as the Mo-
hawks have always called the queen.
The prince was so struck with the bear
ing of the young man that he made in
quiries to learn how he could befriend
him. Being told of Oronhyatekha's de-

Sometimes at night his bed would be

companions, filing the car with melody.
New duties Unexpectedly opened for our
young man. a colt was born one day
and calf the next, filing him with
anxiety lest the young things should
suffer from the rough motion Of the cars.

SIRE for an education, the prince invited
him to spend term at Oxford. And SO
1t came about that the young Mohawk
was enrolled at the great English uni
versity and studied under DR.. Aclan6,
the princes physician, who was also pro-
fessor of medicine. Graduating as a
full fledged doctor of medicine, Oron-
hyatekha returned TO Canada and began
30 practice. He was uniformly success
full and made both reputation and money.
The evils wrought among his people
ny their unfortunate love of drink led
DR.. Oronhyatekha to become a strong
advocate of total abstinence. He has
been for years recognized as one Of the
sblest men in the Independent Order Of
Good Templars, and at the last meeting
If the supreme lodge Of that body in
Edinburgh, Scotland. he was chosen to
the highest Office in the gift of the or
der, that of right worthy grand templar.
The doctor has shown unusual zeal as a
''Joiner." Secret organizations seem to
have strong attraction for him. He is
q prominent Orangeman and Freemason.
He Is himself the founder of benefit
society, the Independent Order of For
esters, of which he is the chief officer at
a salary of So 900 year.
DR.. Oronhyatekha is proud of his In
dian blood. Though his business is in
Toronto, his home is on the reserve in
Thyendenaga, near the western extremi-
ty of Lake Ontario.
i portion of the Mohawk Nation set
tied there on their arrival IN Canada in
stead of going west TO the Grand river.
Oronhyatekha has beautiful home in
the midst Of his own people. He mar
ried a woman of his tribe, a grand
daughter Of the great chief Thyendena-
ga. They have daughter and son,
the latter student of medicine. In
their home the Mohawk language is
used. and Oronhyatekha, though an edu-
Gated man of the world. honored among
the white people. still shows in his con-
versation enough traces Of a foreign &C
cent to let all VINO meet him know that
English IS not the language which comes
readiest TO his tongue.

he met at a village bail a plump, rosy little

Property Among Ants and Bees.

The collective system of property
must have lasted among ants and bees
for many thousands of years, for, apart
from cases of Generalization such as
may, for example, be produced among
bees by giving them a taste for drunk
enness, these intelligent insects show
the most absolute Difference and devo-
ton to social property. Their print
tive selfshness has broadened out into
a collective or patriotic egoism. But
these very social species, with their
more than Christian charity, have not
reached this high degree of civilization
at one bound. In the ant and bee
worlds, as in our own, there are saw
ages. There are still at the present
time certain species of ants ignorant of
the division of labor carried so far
among their civilized congeners.-

Fire in Australia.

In wet weather it is usual for the
Australian aborigine to carry in the
hand, beneath the kangaroo skin, a
piece of smoldering wood, which COM
pensates the bearer in some sort for the
want of flannel waistcoat, and en-
ables him to light fire at moments
notice.
One of our men had also plan on
cold nights of lying down, rolled up in
his furs, upon the ashes of raked out
fire. He explained to my husband that
the advantage of thus going to bed was
twofold, being no less good for warmth
than for concealment, especially when
passing the night in strange place,
where the keeping up of fire after dark
might attract the notice of unfriendly
natives.
Each tribe possesses a territory of it's
own, and each family of the tribe has
its own especial tract of land within
that territory. Here man can light
his fire and build his hut without fear
of molestation. 1t is in fact his pater-
nal estate, so that the word i'fire" con-
veys to an Australian the same mean
ing of fatherland or birthplace as the
word 'hearth" conveys to a European,
and is used by the aborigines in the
same sense.-Mrs. Millett.
