ELL8K WATA W A.
A townful of UbiwnM Indians. clad
In weirdly fantastic mourning, howled
the death^llrge about a great wigwam
ooe day In 1*26- In ttiw wigwam lay
a hideous, one-eyed man, whose name
bad Ion* been known and hated by
every white settler in the west. ? Me
w?? Ellskwataws, the "Prophet/
brother of the famous Tecumseh and
deadly foe to tht United State* gov
ernment.
l A few days bafore thia scene of
noisy mourning the fifty-year-old
prophet had been in the act of light
lag his pipe when he tank to the
ground, lifeless. < Hia followers had
1)000 horror-struck. For they had
dee mad him immortal. Hia death
meant thai loea of their wlaeat, moat
powerful leader. They l^id the body
in atate upon a pile of furs lp the
wigwag and beftn the deatL dance.
Whan the dancing and feaatlng were
andad the tribe marched In aad pro
cession to the prophet's bier to carry
him to bis grave. As' they neared sthe
pile of fura the silent figure upon it
' suddenly eat up,
f A Weird "Mlraoie.*
*1 have been In ?ara<jUae for three
days," calmly remarked the supposed
ly dead prophet, rfs his frightened
tribe-folk shrunk back In horror. Mi
bave talked face to face with the
Great Spirit and haVe brought you a
message from him. Call the nation to
gether that I may impart the tidings
to all." . ?
When the awed "nation" had as
sembled the prophet proceeded to de
liver his "message/' which Included a
command that the Shdwnees cease
from lying, stealing and drunkenness j
and which In various points strength^
ened the prophet's authority over !
them. This was but one of many aim
. liar tricks by which the one-eyed
genius held bis people's allegiance
? and roused them to a frensy of loy
alty toward himself/
The prophet led a Strange, adven
turous life, many of whose Incidents
can scarcely' be explained by natural
causes. As brother OJ the mighty
Tecumseh, he won war fame and
wealth. He helped Tecumseh by over
awing the Indians with "miracles." Be
tween them the brothers swayed near
ly all the western tribes. In 1808 the
prophet secured ft large tract of land
where the Tippecanoe and Wabash
rivers Join, and he rallied to his stand
ard more than ft thousand braves of
different neighboring tribes. To his
followers he wis more than a mere
leader. He was also their "medicine
man" and supernatural master. Yet
despite all this, he governed so badly
that soon all but 300 of his iien de^
serted. Nothing but - TecUmseh's aid
prevented the remainder of the band
from scattering. i
r Rut even Tecumseh could not save
his brother's land. For In 1809 the
government, through Gen. W H Har
rison, bought from the Indians a huge
tract of territory that Included all' the
prophet's domains. Tecumseh sought
in vain to combat this purchase. Pali
ng, the two brothers set to work com
bining all the western tribes into a
league to destroy the white men. Te
cumseh did most of the brain work In
the scheme, but the prophet's super
natural claims, forecasts and miracles
also proved very useful. General Har.
rlson took prompt steps to put down
the conspiracy. .
The climax was reached at the bat
tie of Tippecanoe, in November, 1811.
Tecumseh had gone southward to en
st new tribes for the league. In his
absence the prophet was keeping the
ocal Indians in a fever heat of war
like fury. Harrison, with 800 soldiers
(mostly militia) marched to Terre
Hauto and thence sent a declaration
fn U Jrophet' Tt*e messengers Were
Insulted and driven' back. Then Har
tmvn advanced uP?n the prophet's
X? caTI>,ng for night a short
Qistance from It.

roads are bo oonfuslng/ I persisted.
Don t you think it would be wise to
auk Mr. Thornton T*
'V'All right,' agreed Tom, nonchal
antly. as we wept to get the car out
of the gfcr*ge.
"In a moment or two I heard the
horn tooting for me. When I climbed
into my a?at X remarked that I hoped
Mr. Thornton had given him minute
directions.
"'He wasn't around/ answered
Tom.
"'Why didn't you ask the chauf
feur?*
" 1 do wish, Alice,' was Tom's
crisp reply, 'that you wouldn't fuss
about anticipated difficulties. If this
little buzz wagon loses Its way to the
Hanscombs I'll eat the carbureter,*
"Naturally after that I dropped the
subject, still, after a while I ven
tured to ask, 'Are you sure this is
tfce, right way?' when we turned on
a very rough road. .*
' "Of course, I'm sure,' returned
Tom. 'We go on here for a mile and
then turn south.'
"That sounded all .right, but we
traveled on and on without coming to
a south turn and I began to be
nervous. 'Do ask that man where
we are/ I implored Tom, as we passed
a farmer.
"'Nonsense!' he said. *1 know
where we are. Here is the turn nowT
He aimed the car into a narrow wood
road.~~ ~
That doesn't look like a highway
to me/ I remarked.
"'No, It's Just a cut-off/ replied
Tom.
"I began to think that he might
really know where he. was, but when
the road lost Itself in a large pasture
my doubts returned.
" 'Perhaps we did pass the real cut
off/ mused Tom, casually. 'We can
run back and pick it up, all right'
"By that time it was growing dark,
and Tom got out and lit the lamps,
an4 U**11 went back to the main
road and J meekly suggested that we
inquire at a farmhouse which woTE&'ir
in the distance.
I " 'What's the use of going so far
out of our way?' demanded Tom.
'Don't you see that I have my. bear
ings now?' I didn't see, but I re
frained from telling him so."
"I should have thought that you
would have told him so very pointed
ly," declared her sister.
"Oh, my dear girl, you aren't mar

he's omniscient when it comes to

"At last Tom turned ^triumphantly
I into the driveway ofr a country house.
" *We may be a trifle late, but we're
here all right/ he said. Then he add
ed:
'"Great Scott! It's Rose Lodge!'
And Hose Lodge it was.
" 'Get into any trouble?' asked Mr.
.Thornton, rushing out onto the porch.
** 'Oh, no, we Just thought your din

Tom, with a weak effort at a Joke,, i
"Mrs. Thornton's share T>f the

thought, and when we went Into the

that our places were filled by two
dinner guests. While Tom phoned
