ALASKAN NAMES.
Their Spelling Determined by the
Government Board.

Their Spelling Determined by the
Government Board.
The board on geographic names has just
rendered decisions determining the SPELL
| ing of 149 geographic names, These in
clude a number in Alaska significant at
| this time in view Of the Klondike excite
ment. Many variations of nomenclature
| for the same place are encountered, and
| the boards action settles the uniform
| usage.
AS to Klondike, the decision is to spell it
| as given, and not Clondyke, Klondyke,
Chandike, Chandik or Deer, Reindeer.
Trondike, nor Thron duck. One of the
lakes of the upper Yukon was named Le-
barge by the Western Union telegraph ex-
pedition, in 1868, after Mike Lebarge, a
member of the exploring party. Late pub
LEGATIONS have fallen into the error of SPELL
ing this Labarge, but the board adheres to
the original form-Lebarge. There is a Lee
barge river in Alaska.
When Schwatka descended the Yukon in
1888 he named one of the lakes on lis head
| waters Lindeman, after DIR. Moritz Linde-
man, now vice president of the Bremen
Geographical Society. This sometimes ap-
pears enormously as Lindemann and Lin
derman. The board adopts Lindeman.
One of the principal tributaries of the up
per Yukon is the Lewes river, named by
Robert Campbell of the Hudson Bay Com
pany, about 1S4S. This is often miscalled
Lewis.
The inlet, river and village at the head
OF Lynn canal, which now appears in the
newspapers almost daily under the form of
Dyea, the starting point for The overland
route, is an Indian word which mas ap-
pc AIRED in many forms. Admiral Meade in
1869. wrote it Tyya; Krause in 1882. wrote
it Dejah; Schwatka, in 1888. Dayay; Dali
In 1883, Taiya. The board adopts the form
Taiya.
For the lake and river variously called
HootaiinQua, or Hotalinga, or Teslin lima
or Teslin-too, or Teslin the board adopts
Ieslln. The examinations '.hina" and toe"
are said to mean river in different Indian
dialects.
An Indian village on the middle Yukon is
called Nuklukayet. This has been written
In several forms, including the erroneous
one, Tuklukyet.

Mr.. DEPEW AND THE GERMAN MISSION.

II was reported yesterday that President Mckn-
ley while attending the Gran, Day reception at tho
Union League Cub. made the statement that
Chauncey NJ Depew could have been Ambassador
10 Germany had he SO wished. Previous TO the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Hay Ambassador TO England
Mr. Depcw was urged for that post by many OF his
friends That the place in Germany was offered 10
him however no ever knew. The truth OF the
matter is the German mission was never offered 10
him. and President Mckinley made no such state
ment at the Union League Club The statement
was made by member OF President Mckinleys
Cabinet who said that he did not think Mr. De-,
news friends should feel affronted. Mr.. Depew
could have been Ambassador 20 Germany had he so
desired Previous to the appointment OF Mr.. Hay
one who was regarded as representative OF ing
President approached a warm personal friend OF
Mr. Depew and asked II Mr.. Depew would take tho
place in Germany. This friend replied In the mega.
tive There the matter ended. The place was never
even rendered TO Mr.. Depew personally. and so he
of course. gave personal answer
