J. Red Indians* Conception of a Supreme E;ing The Indian Supreme Being had a number of different names: ‘‘He who gives us food." "lie who Is mas ter of the earth." etc. Over a consid erable part of the region, though not everywhere, he was also called Mnnitu, the common Algonkian word meaning supernatural being. Professor Cooper, anthropologist of the Catholic university of America, found that some of the Indians re membered his name as Kitel Manitu, or great spirit; hut he is Inclined to think thnt this title may have crept In since the coming of white men. The Indians’ Supreme Being was placed at the head of a highly de veloped organization of spirits by the eastern tribes, among whom Pro fessor Cooper made his studies. He had under him four great “chief” spirits. Three ruled the birds, the four-footed animals and the fish, re spectively. To the fourth was given the government of the caribou or wild reindeer, whose great Importance to the Indians Justified a separate rating. Under each of the three "di visional chiefs" wore many lesser overseer spirits, each having charge of a single species. Most Important among the overseers ot the birds were the rulers of the eagle and the fish hawk; chief among the over seers of mammals was the ruler of the bear. The Indians all agreed that these lesser spirits had not made their animals and did not own them; ownership was vested In the Supreme Being alone, and only he had the final decision over their dis posal.
