A GOOD INDIAN.
Grave of a Chief Who Signed tn
Treaty of William Penn.


A short time ago near Sunbury, Pa,
the remains of one of the Indian chiefs,
who participated in the signing of the
treaty, through which William Penn
came into possession of Pennsylvania,
were unearthed. The remains are those
of Chief Shikellimy, grand sachem CT
the Lenni-Lenapes and the deputy gov
ernor appointed by the Iroquois upon
their conquest of the Susquehanna In
dams. He lived in the Indian village
Of Shomoko, on the present site of Sun
bury and Northumberland, and went
thence to sign the treaty under the elm
tree
Chief Shikellimy was good Indian,
true representative of everything that
was grand in the Indian character; who
never proved untrue to his word, be-
trayed a white man nor cOndOned a
crime. On account Of his ability to
govern and his nobleness of character,
he was selected by the chief of the Six
Nations to rule the Indians along the
Ot-zin-ach-son, as the beautiful SuS-
quehanna River was called. When the
Iroquois, the so-called Six Nations,
made war upon the original owners of
the Susquehanna Valley, the Lenni-
Lenapes, they succeeded in subduing
them after bitter struggle and sent a
deputy governor, Chief Shikellimy, to
rule over them.
Under his leadership the Lenni-
Lenapes never tried to throw off the
burden Of their conquerors.
Up to this time very little is known Of
the chief. He was an Oneida Indian
and was born in Canada or in the
northern part Of New York State, near
the border. After he settled in Sho-
moko the Moravian missionaries found
him there and converted him. They
also established a mission under his
protection. At the signing Of the Penn
treaty Chief Shikellimy represented the
Oneida Indians and the Lenni-Lenapes.
In 1748 Shikellimy died and was
buried by the missionaries who had
converted him. In his grave were
placed many trinkets which had been
his share of the purchase Of the price
of Pennsylvania and many of these
were found intact when his remains
were recently discovered.

Yield of a Meadow.

From recent experiments it appears
that a meadow will yield about four
times as much feed in bulk if made
into hay as it will if pastured. But, as
it is well known that the young, tender
grass of the often-cropped pasture is
more nutritious than the older and
tougher hay, it was found by careful
test that the advantage in nutrients,
digestibility and freedom from cost Of
harvesting, housing and feeding of pas
tured fields, will nearly balance the
greater yield of hay fields, except on
very high-priced lands.

A correspondent of an agricultural
exchange asks for plan Of hip roof
without purline plates or support at the
hip He is assured, however, that 1T is
impracticable to make such roof
without some substitute for the pur-
lines, unless the arch is used in the
framing of the roof. A common form
of hip roof is here shown. 1t Is
modification Of the arch, which is the
strongest form of roof made. The

Trees About Buildings.

The first consideration in planting
trees about farm buildings is to shelter
them from sun, wind and storm. The
need of shade in summer is generally
recognized, but too many planters over
look the equal necessity of evergreens
TO protect from winter winds, and to
give a little color to the monotony Of
the winter landscapes. Evergreens
produce an effect in ornamental plant
ing not to be obtained in any other
way.

MRS. TlLTON DEAD.
A Once Celebrated Woman succumbs TO
Paralysis In Brooklyn.

A Once Celebrated Woman succumbs to
Paralysis In Brooklyn.
Brooklyn. April 16 - Mrs Elizabeth
r. Tilton, wife Of Theodore Tilton. who
sued the late Henry Ward Beecher for
alternating his wife's affections died at
her home in Pacific street of paralysis.
Mrs. Tilton was stricken about a month
ago. She rallied, however, and was sup
posed to be on the road to recovery
when she was stricken a second time.
She never recovered consciousness after
the second stroke
Mrs. Tilton has been living in retire
ment at the house Of her widowed
daughter since the Beecher trial. Her
friends have endeavored TO shield her
from publicity to such an extent that
there is no Grape on the door OF the
house in which her body lies and the
blinds of the windows are not drawn.
Several of Mrs Tilton's grown daugh-
ters were at her bedside when she died
She did not recognize any of them. The
funeral services were private, only few
intimate friends attending. The serv-
ices were conducted by the Rev. Mala-
chi Taylor.
Mrs. Tilton belonged to a sect known
as the Plymouth Brethren. For some
time previous to her illness Mrs. Tilton
was partially blind. She regarded this
as a great ahllction. because she was
always very fond Of reading. Her hus-
band. Theodore Tilton, has been living
in Paris since the Beecher trial He has
been notified Of her death.
Mrs Tntons death was almost coin
cident with that of Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher. who died only two weeks ago.
OF the persons directly affected by the
great Beecher trial the on'y one now
living is Tilton, the complainant.
Tilton was a member Of Mr.. Beecher's
church in Brooklyn and editor Of the
/ Brooklyn Union. owned then by the
late Henry c. Bowen. Bowen backed
his editor in the suit. He was a pillar
/ of the church too.
When the case was decided for Beech
er. those who stood by the pastor black
listed the paper. The trial OF the suit
was one of the most notable legal bat
ties ever fought in this country.

Paris. April 1G.-Apropos Cf The recent
lawsuit in the French courts regarding
the right 20 bear the arms Of france,
brought by the so called Due d'Anjou
it was reported that Don Carlos had
renounced his rights TO the thrcne Of
France. This his royal hlghaesa In the
course of recent Interview, absolutely
denies
"The report" he says. lis absolutely
false. l have said that l would never
renounce my rights to Spain after the
sacrifice that has been made In my be-
half by SO many Of my loyal subjects.
But l have always declared, and most
emphatically. my wish to reserve ex-
pressly the rights Of the eldest branch
Of the houze of pourbon-that is. mine
to the crown of France.
"As to uniting the two crowns that Is
In the hand Of Cod. But whatever may
befall me- the rights Of my son, my
brother and their issue should remain
none the less intact"
"Why, then, did your royal highness
intervene in the suit?"
simply to prevent its being said,
without protest, that l was not the head
Of the family. and TO deny the claim
/ that / had renounced my rights"
Does your royal highness then au-
thorze me 10 state that you have re-
nounced neither your rights to the head
of the family nor your ii Ats to the
thrones Of France and Sr~.n2"
Perfectly. l insist that there shall
be no misunderstanding on this point.
! The head OF the house of Bourbon has
duties to perform as well as rights to
maintain. But I'm Spain I represent an
immense national force. Around my
dag and rights all the elements Of tra-
dition most truly conservative are rail-
lied Entire provinces would rise or be
still at a sign from me. A mere order
by telegraph would put under arms
100000 volunteers ready to give their life
for my cause. My duty in Spain Is a
duty active and militant. Action is a
necessity there.
"On the other hand in France I car
only count upon the force Of my lega

ridiculous TO undertake, for the pres
ent, any political action.
