The name comes from the In
dams, declares a writer in
Queries.
Tt was originally Moingona,
and was first given to the Des
Moines river by some of the
French. On various French
maps which have been looked
up it was put down as Moin-
g8ua. The character -" was
used by them at that time to
signify the sound of lou"
AS result, the early Ameri.
cans who followed the French.
man into the valley, not having
time to write and explain this
old French character. cut the
word to Moin.
Then, when the mex stage of
development came, the river,
known as 1.-The Moin," was as
sumed to have been named by
the French, and the "De" was
substituted for the English arti-
Gle. Finally, the substitution
of a uniformly French spelling
made it Des Moines. without
changing the pronunciation.
1t was originally a pure In.
dian name, but a series of acci.
dental corruptions have made
it apparently a French word.
Its meaning in the Indian
tongue has been utterly lost.
1t was supposed tor many
years, under the theory that the
name was French, that it meant
'rne MONKS" but investigation
utterly disproved this. The
French who came after the
name was adapted to French
forms were the most mystified
as to its meaning in French
Elk.

Origin of Des MOines.

After three years of discus
Sion and research. the city of
Des Moines. capital of Iowa,
has formally decided that its
name is not of French extrac-
ton
The discussion was brought
to crisis three years ago when
an erudite down east writer in
a magazine demanded that the
early French explorers, such as
LaSalle. Hennepin, Dubuque
and Des Moines should be ade-
quateIy represented at the st.
Louis Exposition.
The debate seems to have set
tied that Des Moines was not
named after any early French
explorer, that there never was
such a proper name, aud that
there was no good pathological
explanation of the name.

 Eczema and all diseases of the skin must be treated locally. according to tho views now held by foremost skin speci- alists and physicians; that is, you must doctor the itch where the itch is. It is useless to attempt to cure skin disease by taking drugs and medicines into the stomach. The disease is not in the blood It is in the skin and only skin deep. You must get at the seat of the disease and kill the germ by making direct ap- plications to the skin.

Conference In Washington.

Washington, December 7.-Rear Admiral Evans, with Captain Ingersoll his chief of staff, and Commander Chandler, his naval aide, today had their final con- ferences with the President, Secretary Metcalf and the chiefs of the bureaus of the navy department, respecting the approaching Pacific cruise of the battle ship fleet. Secretary Metcalf and Ad- miral Brownson, chief of the navigation bureau, accompanied Admiral Evans to the White House, where they had a gen. eral talk with the President about the state of forwardness of the preparations now in progress for lthe sailing of the great fleet. On the whole, it was devel- oped that every one of the naval bureaus has been doing excellent work in pre- pairing the ships for the long cruise and the conclusion was reached that every thing would be in readiness by next Monday week, when the big anchors will be hoisted, not to be dropped to the bottom again until the ships reach Trini- dad, British West Indies. Admiral Evans and his officers expect to leave Washing ton tomorrow for Hampton Roads and will not return to this city before they sail

INJUNCTION DISSOLVED.
Singer Company Must Pay Taxes On
 Solvent Credits,

Jackson, Miss, December 7-(Special J. Federal Judge Niles has dissolved the in- injunction instituted by the Singer Manu- featuring company restraining the state revenue agent from collecting a delin- quent tax claim for about s350,0 GOO. Reve- nue Agent Adams filed this suit against the Singer Sewing Machine company In 1904, in which he set up that the cor poration had escaped taxation on mil lions of dollars worth of solvent credits. The company took the notes for deferred payments on machines in this state and sent them to New Orleans or other out of the state banks until just before ma turity, when they were returned here for collection. These solvent credits were never reported to the assessor, and hence escaped taxation. The suit filed was for the taxes up to and including the year 1904. Since that time the business has been conducted as before and no taxes paid The taxes for the two years since 1904 will run the total close to half a million dollars, and the chances are that the Singer Manufacturing company will have to pay up before the revenue agent is through with it.
