WHAT MISSOURI MEANS.
From Maine to the Mid West It Stands
for Wooden Canoe.

Tor wooden Cnnoe.
The word Missouri properly means
wooden Canoe" 1t belongs to the
Illinois dialect of the Algonquin In
dian language, the language which
was generally spoken by the various
aboriginal tribes that dwelt between
the Mississippi river and the Della
ware bay and which contained many
words used by the Indians Of New
England. The Brooklyn Eagle says
it is not very difficult to gather sup
port for the definition or derivation
of the name. Indian dictionaries are
common enough, and representatives
of the Algonquins yet remain, al
though neither are readily accessible
to everybody. Among the Abenakis,
or Indians of Maine, boat or canoe
was called "A-ma-sui." With the
Narragansetts it was "Me-shu-e;"
with the Delawares it was 'Ma-sho-
la" with the Miamis about Lake Mich
igan it was "Missola;" with the Illinois
tribe it was "Wicwes-Missuri" for q
birch bark canoe, and "We-Mis-su-re, :"
or "We-Mes-su-re," for a wooden
canoe or canoe fashioned from a log
of wood. The name Missouri was
originally applied by the Illinois and
other Indians of the Lake Michigan
region to the tribe of Indians living
west Of the Mississippi and along the
great Muddy river. The term, liber-
ally interpreted, meant The wooden
canoe people," or, The people who
used wooden canoes" The Lake
Michigan Indians uniformly used
birch bark canoes, while the Indians
on the Muddy river used canoes dug
out Of logs. The turbulent stream
(the Missouri) was not adapted to
frail bark vessels, and the use of log
canoes was to the lake Indians such
a popularity that they named the
tribe or people using them
from this characteristic. But
it must be borne in mind that the
Missouri tribe of Indians did not call
themselves Missouris. They had no
such word in their language. Their
tribal name, or the name which they
gave their tribe, was "Nu-dar-cha, "
Dakota word, whose real slgnifica-
ton is not known to the writer, al
though he has consulted every avail
able authority-even the Sioux, or
nakotas themselves. 1t may mean
fishermen or fish eaters. The first
reference to the Missouri tribe of In
dams made by European was by the
immortal Father Marquette. In a
letter or report written in 1870,
while stationed at La Pointe,
on Lake Superior, and adj
dressed to La MERCER, his
father superior, he mentions having
heard from the Illinois of nations
west OF the Mississippi and below the
mouth of the Illinois river "who use
canoes of wood" On Marquette's
map, in the region referred to, APP
pear the name and the location of the
"Ou-Messoure" Indians. Father Mar
quette must have obtained this name
from Algonquins, for he was only in
the company of and in communication
with the representatives of that
great family. On the earliest maps
the name is given either "Ou-Mes-
soure," "Oui-Messouret" or eve
Messouret," the final at" being
silent.
