Schooleraft, for whom the Schooleraft river is named, was mineralogist in . the expedition of 1820 which named Cass Lake as tne true source of the Mississippi. He did not believe, however, that it was| the true source and in 1832 was giv-i en leave by the war department to| visit the Indians in this part of the| country. * Leaving Sault Sainte Marie, where he was agent of the Chippeways, he went via Lake Superior to Fom du| Lac, a small trading post now a few miles up the St. Louis river from Du- luth. He ascended the St. Louis river to the Savannah portage to Sand lake | where was then the most important trading post of the Chippeways. The party reached Cass Lake July 10 and[ Bemidji a day later. It ascended the| Mississippi and at 2 p. m. on July 13| came out on Lake Itasca. A missionary named Boutwell had| accompanied the expedition. School-| craft asked him for the Latin of “true source.” Boutwell could only remem- ber that the Latin -for “truth” was “veritas” and for head “caput” so he obligingly wrote the two words on a slip of paper. Schoolcraft cut off the head of the former and tail of the latter and coined the word ‘itasca”. It is'as beautiful an Indian name as could be desired. 4 . Lieutenant Allen, who accompan- ied Schooleraft, in his report men-| tioned the lake as “Lac la Biche,” the name given it on Beltrami’s map. On his way home, Schoolcraft made one of the quickest canoe trips to St. Louis on record. He left Itasca July 13 and going by way of Leech Lake, and an unused canoe route throughk the Crow Wing, was at Fort Snelling July 24. I e e e e * ILLITERACY. x IEEE R T TR E RS The census bureau classifies as il- literate any person ten years of age or over who is unable to write, re- gardless of ability to read. There are 49,336 illiterates in Minnesota, rep- resenting three per cent of the total population ten years of age and over, tas compared with 4.1 per cent in 1900. . The percentage of illiteracy is 0.5 among native whites, 7.6 among foreign-born whites, 3.4 among ne- groes, and 40.2 among Indians. For all classes combined, the per- centage of illiterates is slightly high- er in rural than urban communities. For each class separately also, the rural percentage exceeds the urban, the difference being slight except in the case of the negroes and Indians: For prsons from ten to twenty years of age, inclusive, whose literacy depends largely upon present school facilities and school attendance, the percentage of illiteracy is very slight, only 0.7.

The digestive organs perform the same functions in the ‘Thuman body as the plumbing does for the house, and they should be kept in first elass condition all the time.

Some -amusing remarks on clube were made by Mr. Plowden, the wide |[i ly known London magistrate, at a lec | |i} ture to the Victona Men’s club af |fi Richmond. | He belonged to two clubs, he said and they were diametrically opposite in character. One was a very famoue club with great traditions; but it was a terribly dull place. There was none of that, “How are you, old fellow? ‘What'll you have?” Many of the mem- bers never removed their hats even, and when they were in the rooms scowled at any later arrival as much as to say, “How did you get in? It must have been by some awful fluke.” —-One member had witw of- itz “It'is mot a club at all. It is like the country house of a -duke with the duke lying dead upstairs”” That was the}j club to which he went when he felt|} particularly ‘sulky of disagreeable. ‘When he felt lively and was enjoy- (| ing life he went fo the other elub, ||| where they all sat down to dinner at the same table and afterward ‘adjourn- ed to the billiard room ard smoked. || Every one talked to his neighbor and almost invariably- found he had-some- thing interesting to . say.—London Chronicle.
