WHERE AMERICA WAS NAMED
House Is Still Standing In Which
Learned Men Awarded voyaoer
an Undeserved Honor.

Many readers who keep scrap-books
will be glad of this morsel Of curious
lore
On April %, 1907, the learned heads
of the University of st. Die, In Lor-
raine, decided, incorrectly. that Amer
igo Yespucci was entitled to the honor
OF discovery, Christopher Columbus
having only reached the Islands of the
West Indies, and that the western
hemisphere should bear his name. The
name america" was, as a matter Of
fact. first used In the book "Cosmog-
raphlae Introductio," by Martin, Valid
seemuller, professor of cosmography at
the university.
1t has since been shown that Amer
igo vespucci was preceded by both
Christopher Columbus and John Cabot.
but 1t was too late-the new world
had been dubbed America" and the
fact advertised in print. The house
where the meeting was held at which
the classical error was made still
stands at St Die (vosges) and is an
nually visited by many tourists. es-
pecially those from both North. and
South America.
Hence the error Of learned men Is
responsible for America being named
after Amerigo vespucci. who was
given an honor he clearly did not de-
serve.

ANCIENT OLD TRADING POST
About Fort Smith There Seems to
Gather All the Romance Of the
"SIent Places"

OF all the glamorous old trs ding
posts of the Honorable Hudson Bay
company, there is none with more OF
the romance of the silent places about
It than Fort Smith, perched above the
Rapids OF the Drowned on the Slave
river, writes "Niksah" In the Chicago
Daily News. The Slave flows here
from Lake Athabasca TO Great Slave
lake. and halfway on It's journey, just

latitude divides the province of AL
berta from the Northwest Territory, 1t
passes Fort Smith

the steep, rocky bank. A fine spot
for defense 1t was, In the early days,
but now that attacks are over 1t Is an
inconvenient location In spite of Its
picturesque qualities. All day long
you can see those who are In the bib

pany, carrying every drop that Is
drunk, and whatever may be used for
other purposes II is 40 discredit to
wash sparingly In Fort Smith. One
must needs have scant consideration
for the value Of human labor to do
otherwise.
All about the trading post are scat
tered the tepees of the Indians, wan
derers of the great woods, on their an
.nual trading expedition. They bring
with them the breath of the vast woods
country; its struggle has shaped their
tight-lipped mouths. its loneliness has
made their steady black eyes inscrut-
able; its mystery has made their laugh
a low, quick bitten thing. like laugh
snatched In the shadow of terror. All
these things the white woodsmen show
even more strongly, with the quicker
impressionability of finer clay. The
northern woods runner is a man apart,
almost a separate species Of the hui
man animal, shaped by the relentless
pressure of an irresistible environ
ment.
