in Portland for the p a s t few
months, have returned to the
home place lor a few weeks lo

New Zealand Is Maoriland, the home
of a most interesting race. About one
thousand years ago there lived on the
isle Hanalki the forefathers of the
Maori. One of their priests, Te Kupe,
relates a writer In the Mississippi
Blaetter, had offended the chief, and
to prevent his being killed his friends
sent him, provided with provisions
enough to last some time, adrift over
the sea in a canoe. Home and friends
he would never see again, he thought,
and by his people lie was mourned as
one dead. To the Joy of the islanders
he returned after 12 months, giving
them a glowing description of the
wonderful land he liad discovered. His
information caused a stirring agita­
tion, and In a short time seven canoes
were fitted out by tin* natives to sail
to tlic land of promise and settle
there.
»
Te Kupe was leading in the first
canoe across the wide sea, and on
their landing, to honor him, called It
“ Acteoroa” — New Zealand.
“ The seed of our race comes from
Hanrulki,” said a missionary, and
there can be no doubt about the ori­
ginal dwelling place, ami that the
present Maoris are the descendants of
those who sailed centuries ago from
Hanraiki.
