One of the standing subjects of hu­

Tw o Meanings.
The different meanings that s
simple turn of expression can give
a word are often curious and soukh-
times amusing. * An anecdote of
Charles Lamb, the famous Englilh
author, illustrates this very pleas­
antly.
On a wet, miserable, foggy day in
(xradon he was accosted by a beg­
gar with:
“ Please, sir, bestow a little char­
ity upon a poor, destitute woman.
Believe me, sir, 1 have seen better
days.”
“ So have 1,” said Lamb, handing
tbe poor creature a shilling, “ go

for London.”
A similar illustration is of the
man who saw some mischievous
boys carrying off fruit from his or­
chard.
“ What are yon about ?” he called
lustily.

them, ae the marauders disappeared

While Henry Hudson is univer­
sally acclaimed as tbe discoverer of
the noble river which bears his
name, it is well known, that n<
a century before Hudson’s «
ful exploration Johp da V «
a Florentine, entered the month
the Hudson and reported that he
had paaaed up the river about a
league in a boat, not venturing to
sail his vessel, the Danphine, up s
river with which he was unfamiliar.
A sudden squall impelled him to re­
turn to his ship. Verraxano called
the Hudson “ tbe river of steep
hills.” This was in 1684. Some
years later Verrasano’a brother
made a map of the region, and he
named the mouth of the Hudson
“ San Gennano.”
%
In 1525 a Spaniard named Go­
mes, who came to America on an
exploring trip, made a chart upon
which he designated tbe Hudson as
“ San Antonio.”
When some eighty years later
Benry Hudson in his efforts to
reach the east Indian possessions
of the Dutch East India company
by a northwestern route accidental­
ly ran into the Hudson he promptly
dabbed it the “ Manhattes,” from
the name of tbe Indiana who dwelt
at its month.
Hudson sailed slowly up the river
as far as Albany, and his experi­
ences with the Indiana and his ob­
servation? of the surrounding coun­
try were so gratifying that he re­
turned home sritb glowing reporta
of the new found country.
The Dutch at once realised that
great commercial advantage might
be gained in the new territory, and
various companies were organized
to colonize and exploit it.
In 1616 a charter was granted to
the New Netherlands company, and
the river was there referred to as
“ De Riviere van der Vorst Mauri­
tius” in honor of Prince Maurice of
Orange.
In various other charters granted
at this time and public documents
in which the river was mentioned it
was spoken of as the “ Groote Rivi­
ere,” the “ Noordt river,” the “ River
of the Manhattans” and the “ Rio
de Montague.”
In addition to these rikmes, the
Indians had a number of others for
it, among-which may he mentioned
“ Sanatatea.” “ Shawnatawty,” “ Ca-
hohatatea” and “ Cobongorontaa.”
As late as 1754 the river was
referred to by a French writer as
the “ River Orange.”
When tbe English took posses­
sion of New Netherlands they per­
sistently called the river “ Hudson’s
river.” and despite the nearly a
score of other names by which it
was ‘ known that name finally
“ stuck.” although many of the early
colonists spoke of it as the North
river in contradistinction to the
Delaware river, which was common­
ly known as tbe Sonth river.
