The origin of the word milwaukee"
has long been a question of dispute,
chiefly owing to the fact that the old
settlers have been unable to determine
the point on account of singular con-
trariness of information, says the Mil
waukee Sentinel. The meanings as
crlbed to the word have only been
equaled in number by the modes of
spelling, and these have not been few.
The various ways In which Milwaukee
has been written and the dates are as
follows:
Melleokl-Fathers La Sale and Hen
nepin, 1919
Millioki-Father Zenobe Membre,
1879.
Meleki-Old French map of 1854.
Mllwarik-John Buisson de St Cosne,
Oct. I, 1899.
Milwacky-Lleut. james Correll, Sep
TENDER, 1861.
Milwakie-Col Aren't S. DePuyster.

Millewackie-Sam A. Storrow,
Sept. %. 1917.
Milwahkie-Dr. Jedekiah Morse, In
summer of 1920.
Milwalky-MaJ.I Irwin TO Col. McKen-

AlilwaukIe-In headline of the Senti-
nel to Nov. 80, 1874.
Mllwaukee-Nov 80, 1914, to present
time.
The most generally accepted version
Of the meaning of Milwaukee Is that
the original Indian word signifies coun-
ell place, and that here was neutral
ground. Old residents say 1t Is fact
that the Indians regarded the east side
Of the river as a sort of gathering place,
the chosen spot for their councils being
the hill that used to occupy the place
where the st. Charles Hotel now
stands

Of the countries named there were two
or three orders. The export orders of
the previous day included orders from
Russia Australia and New Zealand,
and these were not unusual orders, but
such as are constantly received. In the
shipping room at that moment stood
cases marked for Java, for Ecuador and
for Australia.
Many of these orders are small. In
some cases there were orders fora single

These small orders are mostly from Eu-
