Panama the sun rises out of the Pacific
and sets in the Atlantic? p. D. S.
A:-The isthmus takes a peculiar twist
so that actually the eastern end of the
canal is the Pacific end, and the western

The other day at Poplar stood
looking at the Missouri rolling by,
just before the first real freeze had
turned the water to ice, and thought
of another day, in the summer OF
1879, nearly 43 years ago, when
stood almost on the same ground and
said good bye to my father, Alexan-
der Culbertson, who, turning his
back forever on scenes of his former
greatness, was departing for Nebras-
ka, where a few months later he
died at the home of my sister. He
had done a mans part in the win
ming of the west. For thirty years.
from 1888 to the early COS he had
been one of those men whom today
they call the Kings of the Upper
Missouri. AS he shook my hand and
said fare we'll in the quiet. undemon-
strative way of the men of the old
west, he realized that he was looking
for the last time on scenes that were
filled with thousand thrilling recol-
lections. Most of his old associates
had gone before him. and like most
old men who have lived through

After remaining in the village
few days we returned to Poplar, and
there parted with my father as told
above. On the trip he had talked
much of the old days in the fur trade,
and especially OF old Fort Mckenzie.
Fort Mckenzie was built by my
fathers predecessor as chief trader
for the American Fur Company. Ken
meth Mckenzie, and without doubt its
story forms one of the most interest
ing chapters in Montana history. It
was in the spring of 1892 that James
Kipp, father of Joe Kipp, who died
at Browning some years ago, re-
turned to Fort Union, as the mouth
of the Yellowstone river, with fine
pack of furs that he had taken in
trade with Blackfeet at Fort Piegan,
on the Marias, during the winter be-
fore. Fort Piegan was the first post
the American Fur Company had built
in the Blackfeet country, and this
was really the first trade the company
had been able to make with the
Blackfeet. Mckenzie was much
pleased, and after the arrival of the
steamer Yellowstone, the first steam
er the company had on the river, had
reached Fort Union, he sent a clerk
David Mitchell, with SO men and 8
keel boat loaded with goods to es'
tablish another post in about the
same region, for Fort Piegan hat

not far from where Hinsdale stands
now. During the night terrific wind
storm came up, tore the boat loose
and drove it four miles down the
river, where it struck snag and
sank, two men being drowned. A
messenger was sent to Fort Union
and another boat was at once dis
patched with supplies to Mitchell
who selected as location for his new
fort spot on the west bank OF the
Missouri, few miles above the
mouth of the Marias. The place Is
known today to people in the Fort
Benton region as Brule Bottom. Here
