THE AMERICAN INDIAN LANGUAGE. 
(Continued from page 239.) 
in leading peculiarities of grammar, with the 
Algonquin languages. These two, often called 
Mother tongues, may be inferred to belong to 
the same high generic family. Again, funda¬ 
mental analogies with European tongues which 
pervade and form the basis of the Algic system 
show clearly an affinity between the languages 
of the two continents.” 
Many authorities agree on the theory that the 
ancestors of the American Indians are of Asi¬ 
atic origin having crossed over to this continent 
by way of the Behring Straits. As evidence of a 
former intimate connection between the two lands 
by way of this nothern passage, Father Richard 
told an interesting story. A good many years 
ago, a Jesuit missionary, who had been stationed 
among the western Indian tribes, was ordered to 
Tartary. There he met a squaw whose language 
he understood almost perfectly. She told him 
that some years previous to the time of his visit, 
she had been carried away captive fom America 
by a band of Tartars, and that these people used 
to periodically raid the coasts of northern Alaska. 
To-day, the Jesuit missionaries in Alaska 
minister to the Indians on both sides of the 
Straits, crossing and recrossing, in winter time, 
with dog teams on the ice. They have found 
that the two divisions speak the same tongues. 
“Thus, you see, the study of the Indian lan¬ 
guage leads us deep enough into the history of 
nations to establish an intimate relationship be¬ 
tween the primitive inhabitants of the Old and 
New Worlds. This alone should be incentive 
and reward to the student of Indianology.” 
Gradually the old priest, as he delved deeper 
into the beauties of this, his pet study, became 
more and more imbued with the spirit of his sub¬ 
ject. 
“But,” he continued, “we have an interest in 
these Indian dialects that rises above mere liter¬ 
ary curiosity. The Indian names now perman¬ 
ently attached to our cities, lakes, and rivers 
should have a peculiar interest to us all. Through¬ 
out all generations their language will continue 
to be spoken in our geographical terms. No one 
can turn to the lake, or river, or stream, to which 
the original lords of the land have bequeathed a 
name, without confessing that the Indian has per¬ 
petuated himself by a monument more eloquent 
and more imperishable than could be erected by 
mere human hands. 
“Although obliged to disappear before the 
white man, the former savage has compelled his 
invader to adopt and preserve these denomina¬ 
tions. The descendants of the Indians have kept, 
with great fidelity the names of their ancient 
localities, and have bestowed them upon our 
villages and cities, as they have successively 
appeared. It is but a fit tribute to our Indian 
predecessors to record the baptismal names of 
our rivers, lakes and streams, and also of their 
ancient sites.” 
In a list of the lakes of the United States, 
published in 1885 for the Fisheries Commission, 
two hundred and eighty-five bear Indian names. 
A larger proportion is shown in our rivers and 
streams. In a list of the principal rivers, flowing 
into the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico, but ex¬ 
cluding those of the St. Lawrence basin, seven 
hundred and twenty-four have Indian names. If 
we added to these the Indian names of the St. 
Lawrence Valley, those attached to the waters of 
the Great Lakes, the Saskatchewan, the numer-

One must bear in mind that these have all not

by the early voyagers and trappers, who by mis¬
