Tikumigizhik ( 'He-takes-cross-cuts-in- 

 the-sky,' lit.. He is traveling in the sky, 

 and instead of taking the long way round, 

 goes directly across). An influential full- 

 blood chief of a band of about a hundred 

 Chippewa at White Earth, Minn.; born 

 at Gull Lake about 1830, removed to 

 White Earth about 1868, where he be- 

 came a Christian under the influence of 

 Enmegahljowh. His progressiveness is 

 shown by the fact that he once had 40 

 acres in wheat and other grains — more 

 than any other full-blood Chippewa. He 

 is a man of keen penetration, undemon- 

 strative, and shrewd. He was a sup- 

 porter of Hole-in-the-Da)^ in the Minne- 

 sota outbreak of 1862, and saw the soldiers 

 placed in a position where they were at 

 the mercy of the Indians; but, as Tikumi- 

 gizhik expresses it, he and his tribesmen 

 thought of a,ll the widows and orphans 

 that would be made, so they refrained 

 from making an onslaught. Tikumi- 

 gizhik's sister was the wife of Nebunesh- 

 kung. (j. A. G.)

 its affiliations, but as the locality given 

 was within the Chitimacha country, it 

 may have belonged to that group.

 time of its founding they were at San 

 Juan Bautista mission. When Garcia 

 wrote they were still in part at San Juan 

 Capistrano.

 lim,' or Nehalem. — Boas). A large and 

 prominent Salish tribe on Tillamook bay 

 and the rivers flowing into it, in n. w. 

 Oregon. According to Boas the culture 

 of the Tillamook seems to have differed 

 considerably from that of the n. coast 

 Salish, and has evidently been influ- 

 enced by the culture of the tribes of n. 

 California. According to Lewis and 

 Clark they occupied 8 villages, of which
