The title Of the White House at Wash.
lngton was strangely bestowed. Soon
after 1t was built it was proposed to call
it ''The Palace" but this was opposed, as
savouring Of royal interference, and
tending towards government by an arts
tocracy. Congress determined that it
should ~ called The Executive Man
~ - ecsme known as the White
Houss scluse, whom rebuilt after the
British soldiers had partly destroyed it,
it was painted white to hide the black
traces 81 smoke and flame upon the frees
stone wallis. Washing ton Irving says
that it was called the White House from:
the fact that the resiidedce 81 Mrs. Mar.
tina Washing ton Is ginia was known "a
by that name.
The Irish standard., 1893-09-16

t for granted that .'Sanctus Clauding' or
Saint Claude was the saint after whom
the pre- ent Episcopal residence Of the
I see-city was named. To secure the right
pronunciation, now in vogue, the present
way of spelling the name was introduced
1 So at least many explained the fact.
This explanation. however, seemed the
more open to doubt the criticism as in
| fact there exist in Europa two different
| places b caring the name. of st. Claude
and St. Cloud. each one also tracing its
origin, history and famsto d1ffere. t
saint. 10 as the question seemed to be
of more importance, as upon it's solution
naturally would depend the selection Of
the Saint, who as Patron, should preside
over hie new diocese. Scarcely, there
fore, hal we settled down in this our
new home when we made several inquir-
les as to this point and were finally adj
vised to seek information from ST. Clouds
oldest settler, yet living, MIR. John L
Wilson. To him we turned and in truth
foun what brought light upon the de-
sired issue. We give on this page the
history, how st. Cloud was named, if not
in the word., at least in the senss as Mr..
Wilson communicated it to us:
st Cloud, Minnesota, ie situated upon
lands acquired by the government of the
United States, by treaty OF August 5th,
1851, with the Sioux nation OF American
Indians, BY act of Congress OF August
4th, 1854, the right of presumption was
extended to the unsuryeyed lands of the
Government west of the Mississippi
river in the territory OF Minnesota. In
tho same year many emigran CAM
from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri,
Iowa, Wisconsin, and the Eastern States
of Connecticut and New York. They
were principally brought hither by the
glowing descriptions of the country con-
tanned IN published letters Of Hon. John
l.. Wilson, original proprietor of st.
Cloud, and. Rev. Francis Pierz, the fa-
NOUS Catholic missionary amongst the
Chippewa Indians. These letters ap.
peared in the Cincinnati and st. Louis
