How It Came That so Many Englishmen Were Honored in Naming Paget Sound Points. The following aro tho meaning and origin of the various names on tho north Pacific east: IXD1AH SAIIES. Noah bay, Clallam county. This comes from the name of a Makah chief whose namo was Ntah, or, rather, Dee-ah. Makah, or Makkah, Clallam county, means the people who lire on a point of land projecting into the sea, or tho capo people. Kuisset is another namo by othor In dians for the same people, and means the same as Mukah. Clallam is the name of a county and comes from the Indian tribe of that name, which was originally written S'Klallam. It is said by the Clallam In dians to be a corruption of their own name tor themselves, Nu'sklaim, mean ing "strong people." More probably, however, it comes from the Makah name for them, meaning "clam people," from "klolub," a clam, and "ant," a man. Se-quim, Clallam county, is a corrup tion of the Indian name for tho same place, which is "Suchekivaiing." Snohomish, Mason county, comes from tho Indian name for themselves of the Indians living there, which was S'kaw-kaw-bisb, which the Clallams call S'kaw-kaw-mish. It means "river people," from kaw, fresh water, the Snohomish river being the largest body of fresh wa ter in that region. The termination "mish," or "bish," Bo common on the Sound, means people, the Snohomish word for peoplo being "klowolbish," nnd that of the lower Chehalis Indians, alah znish. Twana ia n corruption from Too-nu-hu, the original namo of tho tribe, of which tho Snohomish Indians were one band, and is said by Qeorge Gibbs to be reported to mean, "a portage," because a short portage across the head of Hood's canal will bavo a water trip around tho peninsula by way of Port Gamble; bnt I have never been able to verify it, though I hare often inquired of the Indians. Chehali3, name of river, county nnd town, is pronounced by the Indians Tse-ha-lis, and by some early wnters wa3 written Chickelis. It means "land," and was given to the Indians about the river's month because of tho sand there, and hence the early settlers gavo the river and upper Chehalis Indians the same name, though originally neither was called by this namo by the Indians. Wishkah, Chehalis county, is a corrup tion of tho Chthalis name Hwish-kahl, and mcanq "stinking water." Skookum Chuck, Thurston county, is from the Chinook jargon, and means "strong or swift water." Skookum comes originally from the Chehalis wurd skn kuni, strong, and chuck, water, from the word Tl-tsuk, in the old Chinook lan guage, which in Nootka is Chauk, nnd Clatsop, Tl-chukw. Skookum bay, Mason comity, has the same oiiin, and was given to tho bay becanso the tides rnsh through it with great swiftness. Tumwater, Thurston county, is a Chi nook jargon word, meaning "waterfall." It originated from tho English word "water," and "turn" by onomatapolin, as the sound of tho waterfall reminded peo plo of that sound. So "Inmtum,' the word in thosamo language for hearts, was given to it because of tho noise of the beating of the heart, which reminded them of such sounds. T'acoma means in the Kisqually lan guage "tho mountain;" but it was not given to it by tho Indians, as their namo for it was Luwak-hu or Twawhauk. Seattle was tho name of an Indian chief, who was very friendly to the whites. As a rule the names of Indians on Puget Sound have no more meaning than tlioso of America. Kitsap county comes from n chief of that name. Tulalip, Snohomish county, means a wido bay with a small mouth. Stillaquamish means "river poople." Kooksack, Whatcom couuty, is tho name of a tribe, but has no meaning. Snohomish is the name of a tribe and stvle of union. Snoqualmie is not of much account, bat tbey aro strong Indians. Teekalct, the former name of Port Gamble, Kitsap county, means "the brightness of tLe noonday sun," because tho sun at noon bhiues with peculiar splendor on Port Gamblo bay. La Push, Clallam county, is a Chinook jargon word and means "mouth," mean ing at that placo the mouth of tho river. It comes from the French "La Boos." Tatoosh, Clallam county, is also a Chi nook jargon word, and means "milk" or "breast." It is originully from tho Chip peway word "to-tosh." Cathlamet, Wahkiakum county, is written Cathiamah by Lewis and Clarke, and was tbo name of a tribe of Indians as well a3 a stream. It evidently cornea from the Indian word "Oalamet," niepn mg "stoue." and is believed to have been given to the river becauso of tho fact that it has a stony bed along its wholo course. Kalama is believed to bo simply n cor ruption of the nbovo word Calamet "stone." La Camas, Clarke county, is tho Chi nook jargon name for an esculent root. It comes from tho French "la" and the Nootka word "chamass," which Jewett says means "fruit, sweet, pleasant to taste." Walla Walla, written Wolln WoIIah by Lewis and Clarke, is a Nez Perce and Cuynse word, the root of which is "wa latsa," which means "running," hence "nuining water." Two meanings of it are given, ons being "a small stream rnn ning into a large one," that is tho Walla Walla rirer emptying into the Colum bia." Another is "ripple after ripple," "fall after fall." Wallnla means tho same as Walla Walla, .but is in the Walla Walla lan guage. Almota, Whitman oounty is n corrup tion of the Nez Perco word "allamotin" and means torch-light fishery." Alpowa, Garfield county, is a Nez Perce word, and means "the month of Spring creek." The Indian name of the creek is "alpaha," which means "spring creek," and was so given because of the numerous springs there. Pataha is n Nez Perce wcrd, and meana "brush creek," from "paton," "brush," becauso formerly the brushes were very thick on it. , Asotin is from the Nez Perco word "hasnotin, which means "eel creek," from tho abundance of eels in it. Yellow Hawk's creek, Walla Walla ceunty: comes from a Caynso Indian chief of that namo, whoso Indian name was Petamromusmus, which meant 'irpllnw linwlf. or A.nrrtn " "Tnxsas, Whitman couutv, is a Nez i-crce woru, wnicn mean3 moss-covereu rook." Siwnsh. Stftvpna nnnntir. ia the riilnnnl. jargon word for Indian, and is a cormp- uuu ui mo ireiicu woru saurage, ' lor saage. Kuintux, Whitman county, is a Cbi- nrvik lnrcrnn wnrrl mnnninn n l.nnnt n understand. Tho Nootka word is kom- raetafc, the Uloyoquoi word kemitak, and Tokwaht word kumituks. VANCOUVER. Tho following names on Puget sound were given by Capt. Vancouver on bis visit to ana exploration of the Sound in 179.': New Dungeness, from its resemblance to Dangeness in the British channel. Mount Baker, as a compliment to the third lieutenant of Vancouver's expedi tion. Port Discovery, after the name of his ship. Paget Sound, from his lieutenant of that name. Port Townsend was named Port Town shend, in honor of the noblo English marquis of that name. Mount Rainier, after his friend, rear admiral Ilaiuier. Marrowstono point, because tho clay there seemed to be such a rich species of marrow -stone. Oak core, from tho few oak trees found there. Foulweather bluff, from tho change of weather experienced in its neighborhood. Hazel point, on Hood's canal, from the hazel bushes or tree, as ho calls them, found there. Hood's canal, or channel, as ho named it, after right honorable lord Hood. Port Orchard, from tho gentleman of his expedition of that name who discor ered it. Vashon island, after his friend, Capt. Vashon, of tho British nary. Restoration point, beoauso ho cele brated tho memorable erent of the res toration whilst nt anchor there. Penn's coTe after a particular friend of that name.
