In Fact That's What Its Name I Signifies, "The Meeting of the Waters." Sketches of Bits of Scenery and Building-s of Historic Interest. The Superb View of a Grand Landscape From the Top of Pilot Knob.

On This Eminence a Bronze Statute of Gen. Sibley is Suggested. LMOST midway be- Ivi tie two that is, five miles from St. Paul and six miles from Minneapolis nestling under the hills on the west side of the Mississippi river, and looking down upon the Father of Waters and the tortuous, winding Minnesota, can be seen earliest settlement in this state in the sunlight of its gorgeous scenery and apparently satisfied with the elegant surroundings and appointments of nature which look down upon it. One can conceive the intense love which the Sioux Indians once bore fur this place prior to and during the early territorial days, before the civilizing influences of the railroads cut into- its green covered hills choked up its pearly brooks, or scarrified its undulating natural lawns, for herethey roamed in undisturbed except, when an warrior invaded their serene and lovely home, and by his brutal acts brought out GEN.

SIHLEY FN HIS EARLY DAYS. the baser passions of the savage breast. The lulls just back of the little village rise up abruptly and stand as sentinel guards over the quiet citizens below, who, in their old-time monotony. push along in the identical paths their fathers" trod before them, although one meets occasionally a new-comer who cuts his way into the atmosphere of tinpast and startles the old settlers by his modern innovations of progressive ideas. The place DERIVES ITS NAME FROM THE INDIANS, meaning the meeting of the waters, the Minnesota coming in from the left as you stand looking out from Mendota, and the Mississippi from the right, forming a confluence at the foot of the hills which encircle the village.

These hills average a height of at least 200 feet, and are cut by ravines which can be made natural ami easily graded highways, and most of the hill's and ravines are covered by a fine growth of oak trees. Quietly reposing in this bower of beauty is the unpretentious, modest little town. Emerging from the bustling activity of either of the two great cities, which seem to embrace tne place in their brawny arms, one almost; leels the stillness which pervades the streeis, though here and there we find a few straggling teams, a pretty brunette half-breed, some worthy ranchmen, a brick hotel, one or two country stores, a postoffice, a school house, a -Catholic church and the old cemetery near by. One of the most marked and attractive historical features of the place is the old stone house near the railroad tracks, erected by Gen. H.

11. Sibley in the year 1836. In 1835 he erected the first stone store, since torn down; The private dwelling of the general was the first -tone or wooden house in the state, and lhe old stone house stands as such today. second stone house is near THE PAGESI7TO24 it, and is similar in appearance, and was built and occupied by the late-Alexander Faribault. Beyond Mendota proper and just the other side of the old historical Catholic church, gnd around property runs the trains of the lowa division of the Chicago.

Milwaukee St. Paul road, rises in gradual assent beautiful river terrace front, surpassing, our far famed Summit avenue and capping this property, ascending gradually, IS PILOT KNOB, which is considered the highest point of land between the two cities. From this elevated position one gets the finest view in the Northwest. On the right is Been St. Paul, seemingly; almost near, enough to put your hand upon it: in the distance, on the left, is Minneapolis; just in front is Fort Snelling; on the ex- treme south, gazing up the Minnesota I river, is Shakopee; in the distance, I nearly in front, is Minnehaha, and just i at the foot of the hills, and under them, I where the tracks of the Mil- waukee and Omaha railway trains I run, wind the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers.

Away back, in a circle of at least twenty miles, as far as the eye can reach, can be seen one of the most beautiful and charming landscapes in any country in the world. On the North river, near New York city, the view is grand, but it is seen from only one or two points of the compass, while from Pilot Knob can be witnessed one unending panorama of rural beauty from alt points of the compass which impresses the eye more as a picture than the grand handiwork of a great, unseen Power. This high point of ground was at one time the burial place of many bodies of defunct Sioux Indians, lofty places, when accessible, being always chosen for that purpose. It was Senator Douglas' earnest wish, when, as chairman of the committee on territories, he introduced the bill for the organization of Minnesota, that the capital BE LOCATED AT MEXDOTA and the public buildings erected on Pilot Knob, which was after repeated protests and solicitations of the delegate then in congress, Hon. 11.

H. Sibley, that he consented to substitute St. Paul for Mendota, in accordance with the almost unanimous desire of the people of the territory. Forty-live years ago Hon. 11.

li. and Gen. Sumner, then captain, camped on Pilot Knob, and in the morning the commander of Fort Smiling, discovering the parties, supposed them to be enemies-, and the garrison was considerably excited. Gen. Sibley, in a note to the writer, says: arrived at Mendota Nov.

7, 1834, or fifty-three years ago. Was much impressed with the picturesque beauty of the "spot and its surroundings, when seen from the high ground overlooking the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers, and especially from Pilot Knob. -The latter stream was called the St. Peter at that time, and for years afterwards by the whites, but the Sioux name was restored on the public records by a joint resolution of congress introduced by me while, a delegate, changing the French St. Pierre to Minnesota.

There were no Indian lodges or tepees at Mendota at this time, but there were. villages at Kaposia. below, and at different on the Minnesota river above, the nearest being that of "Black about three miles distant. There was war between the Chippewas and Sioux that had been waged from time immemorial, interrupted occasionally by a Katched-up truce, liable however, to be broken when opportunity offered for a treacherous attack by one or the other of the parties. I was standing on one occasion on the bank of the Mississippi, in the rear of my place of business, when 1 noticed three puffs of smoke rising from the wooded shore a mile or more below, and in a short space of time runners appeared informing me that a Sioux Indian named "Big and his wife had been shot and scalped by three Chippewas, and they were on their way to notify the warriors in the upper Tillages to loin in tlie pursuit of the murderers.

-The bodies of the slain were transported by canoe to Mendota, the skulls of each of the victims being entirely denuded of the and they PRESENTED A SHOCKING SIGHT to one who, like myself, had never seen any such display. It was my misfortune to be compelled in after years to gaze upon many scenes of a like kind. The Sioux, occupying villages during the summer months, suffered more than the Chippewas in these forays, as the latter had no fixed habitations, but roamed at all seasons through the dense forests and morasses, with which their country abounded, so that war parties of the enemy had no objective point at which to aim. but must depend upon chance to conduct them to a spot where they could find victims. It sometimes happened that a strong force would discover and fall upon a small camp and slaughter the occupants without mercy, but such instances were not frequent." It was at Mendota, where the great treaty with the Sioux was made inlSol, ceding all their lands on the west side to the whites.

On the top of the high hills just back of Mr. Fee's store are several Indian mounds, and these are on a range with others found in the state. From this point one gets a fine view, but nothing near so grand as from Pilot Knob. When one stops to think a moment he is lost in bewilderment over the rapid march of events, not that we can point to any especial progress made by Mendota. for the place is only a little uigger than when our worthy citizen, Gen.

Sibley, settled there fifty-three years ago, but in time mentioned St. Paul, and Minneapolis have sprung into existence and number now jointly not less than 300,060 inhabitants. The village of Mendota itself probably numbers 200 people, composed mostly of Canadian French, an industrious class of citizens, who are mainly satisfied with tilling the SAINT PAUL, SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST TWENTY FOUR PAGES. soil. And so time has jogged on, leaving the little village undisturbed IX ITS PBMITIVE SIMPLICITY.

away in the back ground in truth we might say, sitting upon the nether end of progress and crying, "Whoa whoa Gen. Sibley at one time owned jointly with others, in and- adjoining Mendota, 1,000 acres of land, and they nave still a considerable interest in i town lots and in acres along the Mississippi river near the village, This land he sold many years ago on credit at the rate of .20 and per acre, and lots at $50 apiece, in several, instances allowing parties ten and fifteen years to" pay in. and then loaning some of the purchasers money to live on. Of course lie is held in great esteem by the older residents, some of whom were his trusty voyageurs at the time he was a partner with the American Fur company, and but even through Rice and Faribault. Standing upon the Robert street bridge, at' St.

Paul, the houses at Mendota can be clearly seen, and prominent'in the foreground is the old church and its spire and Pilot Knob; and gazing from the latter point at Mendota one sees the city in all its'- glory, rising above all the GLOBE building, the new court house and the two steeples of the German Catholic loom up before the vision. Gazing out into the future one can readily discover, in imagination, Mendo'a, with its motor-car communications by land from both cities and steamboat communication by water from St. Paul. Some far-seeing genius will some day seize this opportunity, purchase Pilot Knob, lay out a park on ton of it of from ten to fifteen acres, had control of the fur business, which "which would soon become national in reached from Red Wine, on the south, character, and on the highest point tothe Red river, on" the north, and erect a bronze statue to when lie made Mendota his headquar- the memory of hex. siri.ky, ters.

The clear-cut meadows, dotted with trees, the shimmering sunlight dancing upon the water, the constant changing colors of nature's glowing face, the winding river embosomed in a rich garment of green, the climbing hills towering towards the distant sky, the old fort with the national banner, the fleecy clouds and the southern breeze, all carry the feelings aliove the gross materiality of the world into the elements of a better life." On the hill, near the village, Gen. Sibley years ago reserved about one dozes acres and had them divided into lots, which are known as "Sibley's Indian Homes." His object was to assemble in one locality some of the scattered families of his old Indian scouts, where the children could have the advantages of school and church and be the habits and customs of the whites. The experiment did not prove a success, there being only four or five families who availed themselves of the opportunity. Others have come and gone, being too restless to adopt a stationary life. At this end of the village, nearest St.

Paul, and lying under the hills, is what IS KNOWN AS THK HOUSE-SHOE, a tract of land well adapted for manufacturing purposes, embracing about twenty-five acres. The old Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul railroad track used to run at the base of the hills around this horse-shoe, and this rebuilt would give good railroad advantages to the factories. Three railway tracks enter Mendota, viz: The Chicago. 'St.

Some twenty passenger trains enter and leave Mendota daily thus making this little village even now a railroad center of considerable importance. Looking back upon the past for half a century, one sees but little changes in SIBLEY'S OLD HOI this quiet old village and one wonders why this is so, with two great rivers winding along at its front- door and ten passenger trains coming and going to remote parts of the country, while an agricultural region, rich in all the elements that -constitute greatness, stretches out, not only through Dakota OLD CEMETERY. cities, but in the great state of sota.

7 7 GOULD GOOD AS GOLD. You've Read of the Child Born With a Golden Spoon in Its Mouth. Well, This One Aint a Marker i I to the Grandchild of Jay Gould. The Latter Has a Royal and Dainty Wardrobe Fit for a Prince. Rich Garments, Costly Lace and Poems in coats and Bibs.

ROSSI KG the bridge of "celestial asphodels," as Ahlrich puts it, Baby Gould and his little soul and round pink body are safe in the handsome brown-stone home of his mamma and papa. Mr. Mrs. George at No. 1 Fortyseventh street.

Grandpa Jay Gould is as happy as though he had gained an extra million or two "and has already ordered a false piece for the little bald spot on the top of his head, so that Baby Gould can have something to catch at when he grows a little older and his grandpa kneels to him. The little fellow is only six days old this Sunday morning, but he has already outrival Berry Wall in his numerous changes of toilet. When Baby Gould reached this "cold world of ours" on Tuesday morning last-he. found- waiting him a most complete "outfit. Everything that a baby could desire was in the great handsome nursery on the second floor of the Gould mansion; everything from a golden spoon to press "on his little tongue to make him breatlf his first breath, down to a grandpa, rolling and double-plated, aud walking in millions of the same His first cry was a cry of thanks to Heaven that he had been born "Baby as he understood his name to be.

i All the ladies who have been to see Baby Gould's wardrobe go into raptures over it. The dainty frocks ami petticoats, the beautiful flannels. the lovely shoes and caps, the bibs and blankets, and all the thousand and one articles with which are probably the most "costly made for any baby since the Prince of Wales' mamma togged out his royal highness in his first long clothes. Now that Baby Gould's little soul is safely cased in its little body and both are growing nicely, his £3 grandma, mamma and nurse are very to see how the little will look; in all of his clothes, and have tried oil a of his new suits, to the gratification of all. In the days when Mrs.

George Gould was Miss Edith Kingdon and before she graced the stage, when she in -Brooklyn, she was noted for her fine needlework. No girl in her set could make such beautiful "feather stitch and or hemstitch linen or buttonhole flannel as could Miss Kingdon. All this art. besides that of both Baby Gould's grandmammas, has been put to use in the little wardrobe, and each little, article is as daintily made and as pretty as a lady's fine handkerchief. Itjs estimated that some $5,000 has been spent on Baby Gould's layette, but of course, does not include all the fine sewing and crocheting done by his relatives.

Baby Gould's first toilet was an exqisite one. He was wrapped in a blanket of softest white eider-down, all embroidered in pale pink rosebuds and lilies-of-the-valley, while his little bath was prepared before the glowing open fire in the nursery. -7 First his head nurse brought out his little, bath tub, all of white enamel tin, and placed it on a MOO Persian rug. This was half full of warm water, scented with rose water and eau de cologne, and a small cream-white silken sponge dropped in. A cake of white soap, scented like wood violets, next went in, and then followed the new arrival, when Grandma- Steele had first sponged his little head to keep him from catching cold.

-After applying the sponge For a few minutes the little king was relied into a Turkish towel of white and gold and a tiny casket of rare Eastern oil, scented like all the spices of 4raby the Blest, was broken over his fortunate little head and let to trickle down his little back and rubbed on his chest. Then he was cove red with rose powder and carefully dressed. His first shirt, like thirty-five others at his command, is one of the finest white linen, hemstitched with No. 200 cotton and edged with Valenciennes lace a half inch wide. Each shirt has a different pattern of lace and each one has a little beautifuly embroidered in one corner.

All the other articles are marked the in same way. Ills flannel bands, some eighteen in number, were imported direct. from They, are as soft as silk and a fine and creamy silk is formed into a bonier of herring-bone stitch about "each These are fastened with four little gold saftey-pins about his little body, lie lias the same number of small pinnjng blankets, as they are called. These aye of- all-wool Indian flannels, very thin and fine, and the edges are embroidered in clover and rose patterns," and the waist bands of good, thick fine to brace up his little back-bone, are fastened with four more gold safetypins, while the edges are pinned --up by two more to keep the wind from his little foes- These pinning blankets were made in Brooklyn by a French lady in reduced circumstances, and are. said by those who should know, to 'to be "perfects in one month these will give place 'to flannel petticoats, and Baby Gould has two dozen of these, all of the same flannel and richly, embroidered.

And as for the white skirts and dresses, these are endless in number and each one is a work of art. Baby's mamma "had some three dozen made; most of these are hand embroidered or made up of lace insertion and edging and are all sewn by hand. Then each one of his grandmamma's made him a couple of extra fine ones, and his aunt, Miss Nellie Gould, one with an entire front of pointe lace, in. which he wilii probably be christ- ened in Dr. Paxton's his fall cloak.

West Presbyterian church some time during the coming fall or winter. One of the prettiest dresses in the set is of sheer white batiste, with a hem eight inches deep. Above the hemstitching are placed two rows of fine hand-embroidery of running rose-vines and clover-blossoms, and between is an insertion of Valenciennes lace. The little waist and short sleeves are made to correspond. Even the bibs of the little layette are exquisite.

They are made out of soft white mull padded with white cotton and quilted and embroidered by hand. Some are worked with "Baby" in the center, others have. "Our Pet," and quite a number have a large All are edged the finest Hamburg. For morning Baby Gould wears a little white cashmere wrapper lined with white China silk and fastened by broad, white satin ribbons. He has a half dozen of these, and exchanges them after his bath for one of his many dresses.

yyy ri He has so many pairs of silken knitted boots that he wears a fresh pair each day, and then his mamma sends them oflfas keepsakes to her dearest friends. Most of these boots are pale blue, rose pink or white, and all of them are two or three inches long. Then there are many little silk and worsted sacques and tiny linen monchoirs which are pinned to them with little pearl lily-ofthe-valley pins. The bascinet in which the baby takes his slumbers was made in town at a shop on Broadway, not far from Madison square, where such work is done. BABY GOULD'S bascinet.

It was a present from George Gould, "the. baby's papa. The framework is of bamboo, enameled a pure white and touched here and there with tiny flecks of gold, and it is lined with pale-gold surah silk and then with white silk, the curtains of the same, with the gold inside. The entile cot is draped with deep flounces of rare Valenciennes lace, caught with knots of gold and white ribbon. A little mattress of fine curled hair, a patent air cushion and a tiny eiderdown pillow are in the bascinet, and these are dressed in embroidered linen sheets and cases, with eiderdown quilt embroidered in silken daisies and buttercups.

Baby Gould must sleep soundly in such a pretty nest. The willow basket in which are kept the little ivory brush and comb, the PETTICOAT AND SLIP. white powder boxes, the ltttle gold safety-pins, the silken sponge and other appurtenances of infant's toilet is in harmony with the bascinet and is all in rose-pink and white, with flounces of pink satin draped in embroidered cloth, and numberless bows of palepink satin ribbon. During his six days of life the rising millionare has received as many gifts as are vouchsafed to most Fifth avenue brides. Every one who knows the family and has gone or sent to inquire about the baby has given him some gift.

Among these is a beautiful set of corals, three little gold studs linked with gold chains to fasten up his dresses and a gold pin for his bib from his papa, a silver gold-lined cup from his grandpa, and a beautiful carriage of bamboo from his Aunt Nellie, besides endless rattles, spoons, pins and necklaces. Mrs. Gould is at present unable to see anyone except a few intimate friends. Tliese she receives in her large room, attired in a gown of pale-pink crepe de chine, and a tiny little lace mob cap that gives her a pretty matronly look. The babe reposes when awake on a pink-silk pillow beside her.

and roses placed in vases and jars fill the air with In three weeks the little family expects to go up to Tarry town to join the older family, and a large apartment in the sunny side of the house is being prepared for a nursery.
