THE NAME STEWART.
what Is the Correct Spelling of tn.
Name?


At a recent meeting OF the Clan
Stewart Society in Glasgow, Col. John
Stewart of Ardvoirlich. who presided,
referring to the different ways OF SPELL
ing the clan name. said that the "dif-
ferent ways of spelling the name arose
either from accidental causes or other
well-defined reasons. The final letter
T. was substituted for the ID of the
original name Steward for the sake
of euphony. The spelling Of the name
Steuart was quite accidental. arising
probably from the ELIGIBILITY Of the
writing of some member; while the
spelling OF Stuart was caused by Queen
Mary on her return from France us
ing the French spelling of her name, to
which she had been accustomed, and
many clansmen perpetuated the royal
spelling. But in whatever way they
spelt their name, they all came from
the original stock. Nor does this end
the matter, for it may be remembered
by many that the Earl of Galloway re-
fused to take part in the collection Of
the Stuart exhibition" in London in
1889. because the committee refused to
spell the name Stewart" as his lord
ship himself does. He maintained that
this was The only correct photography,
and held aloof from the exhibition
which disregarded this assertion. This,
however, seemed rather high-handed
especially when we discover by refer
ence to historical documents that near
ly all the famous people of the fifteenth
and sixteenth centuries spelt their
names in two or three different ways
In short, there was no proper spell
ing" though Mary Queen of Scots al
ways wrote stuart for the simple
reason that she was educated in France
and the French alphabet had no ''w."
Earlier kings of her race spelt their
names Steward" or Stewart" or
Stuart" at the fancy of the moment
when they held the pen. We have near
ly thirty different ways on record Of
spelling the surname of Stewart in
English, Gaelic French. Latin, Italian,
Spanish and Dutch as follows: Stew
ard, Stewart, Stewart. Stuart, Stuard,
Steuarde, Steuard, Steuart, Steuert,
Stewort, Steort. Steubhart, Steubhartt,
Stiubhart, Steward, Stiurt, Stewart,
Sturgard, Stuyarde, Styward, Stuardus,
Estuard, Estuarza. Stivard. Stivardi.
1t is contended that "the right etymol-
ogy" is S-dew-ard-the Lord High. or
the High Lord-that is, the lord next
to the king in power.

Returns.

The city board Of equalization and
appeals held its initial session yester-
day morning and afternoon, and it'was
decided to take up only the applications
for changes in realty assessments, and
to defer consideration of applications
on personally to a time to be decided
upon later. At the morning session, a
number Of applications for real estate
reductions were presented from the
First ward, and these were duly con-
sldered, though some were laid over
until the afternoon, when the board
went to North Wheeling to take a per-
sonal view of the property in question
AS is usual. the action taken by the
board on the applications considered
is not made public at this stage, and
will be withheld until the boards labors
are concluded.
At the morning session, Assessor
Helskell, of the district north Of the
creek, appeared and explained how it
was that there was such a falling OF in
personally in his district. A bundle OF
personally returns, he said, had been
mislald, and thus were not entered in
his books. With the supplementary
assessments he now offers, the decrease
on personally north Of the creek is en-
tIrely wiped out. The board received
the assessors statement but laid the
matter on the table temporarily, and
will act in the premises after the applI-
cations for reduction on real estate
have all been acted upon.
