Pittsburg, Pa. Near the little vil-

the days of Washington.
Originally it was run by two over

GREAT RIVER'S MANY NAMES
Various Aliases Under Which the
Hudson Has Been Known in
Past Centuries.
In the course of the last 400 yean
the Hudson has been known by a
last 20. different names, and even to
day. In New York, at any rate. It is
indifferently referred to as the Hud
son and the North river.
While Henry Hudson Is universally
acclaimed as the discoverer of the no
ble river which bears his name. It is
well known that nearly a century be
fore Hudson's successful exploitation,
John dn Vcrrazano, a Florentine, en
tered the mouth of the Hudson and re
ported that he had passed up the river
about a league In a boat, not ven
turing to sail his vessel, the Dauphine,
up a river with which he was unfa
miliar. A sudden squall impelled him to re
turn to his ship. Verrazano called the
Hudson "the river of steep of hills."
This was in 1524. Some years later
Verrazano's brother made a map of
the region, and he named the mouth
of the Hudson "San Germane"
In 1525 a Spaniard named Gomez,
who came to America on an exploring
trip, made a chart upon which he des
ignated the Hudson as "San Antonio."
When, some SO years later, Henry
Hudson, in his efforts to reach the
East Indian possessions of the Dutch
East India Company by a northwest
route, accidentally ran Into the Hud
son, he promptly dubbed It the "Man
hattes," from the name of the Indians
who dwelt at Its mouth.
Hudson sailed slowly up the river
as far as Albany, and his experiences
with the Indians and his observations
of the surrounding country were so
gratifying that he returned home with
glowing reports of the new-found coun

He Whom Diogenes Sought
By BELLE MANIATES
iCopyright, 1909 by Associated Literary Press.)
It was fully expected that the ver-i
diet would be "Not Guilty." Not that
the evidence demanded such verdict,
but the case had resolved purely and
simply into a political affair, and the
jurymen were all of the party in
power. The defendant was Walter
Ledeen, a popular young politician,
clubman and society man. His air of
confidence waned as the jury contin
ued to remain out. When night came
with no returns, he grew nervous. By
morning he was white-faced and his
finger nails were gnawed to the skin.
At last the foreman announced that
there was no possibility of an agree
ment. The last, and in fact all of the
ballots, had stood eleven to one for ac
quittal. When it was divulged that
Jerry Winters was the one who had
stood out, amazement and indignation
ran high among Walter's clique. Jerry
was an associate of the defendant.
and. moreover, was said to be engaged
to the defendant's sister. Edith.
To all remonstrances, inquiries and
demands, Jerry had one answer: "The
evidence showed that be was guilty. I
did my duty."
It was clearly borne in upon the ob
durate young juryman that any po
litical aspirations he might have en
tertained were doomed. It was to be
expected thnt Walter would consider
him an enemy, but all Rlverton watched
with much curiosity to sec what Edith
would do. Jerry proceeded immediate
ly to justify himself.
"I couldn't do otherwise. Edith." he
said, manfully. "I strained every point
I could. I tried my best to find a flaw
in the evidence. There was none. I
could cot perjure myself." .
"Jerry Winters", flashed the girl. "It
was my brother you wanted to con
vict!" "Don't. Edith!" he pleaded with a
harassed look. "I tried my best to for-
i gee inai iacu i uau io give an un
biased opinion."
"Jerry!" she exclaimed, wildly,
"don't ever dare speak to me again. I
hate you! We are not only strangers
henceforth, but enemies."
"Edith." he said, sadly, "nothing
could mako me your enemy."
As time went on, Walter had a new
trial and was acquitted. Ills vindic
tiveness toward Jcry. however, did
not diminish, and he did his best to
Injure his former friend. Still there
were men who respected Jerry for his
action. But neither the animosity of
Walter and his coterie, nor the appro
bation of law ablders mattered much
to Jerry. All he wanted or cared for
was Edith and Edith's love. But she
cut him publicly and with disdainful
demeanor.
Gne day In early autumn, when base
ball enthusiasm waxed high, when
crowds gathered and waited and stam
peded in front of the places where the
scores were shown, a crucial game
was played at Rlverton. The home
team, the Stalwarts, were to play
niralnst the Lions. This was to be
the game of games, for if the Stal
; warts won it meant the pennant. All
Riverlon turned out to witness the
1 game and shouted for the Stalwarts.
' A gav young crowd was on the grand
stand behind the plate. Among them
were Walter and Edith. To their right,
alone, was Jerry.
"'Grand, gleonsy and peculiar, the
secretary sat alone" quoted Walter
with a sneer and a glance at Jerry.

The Real Home of Liberty
"Yes." said the Englishman, who has
been eome years a resident of the
states. "America can fairly claim to
be the treeest country on earth. I
osed to think England was. I beilevcd
that In spite of your boasted republic
in institutions and your universal suf
frage and lots of other things, we had
more real freedom and more personal
rights on the other side than you bad
here. But I've changed my mind.
The American has more liberty than
the Briton.
"The advantage Is not due to the
!orm of government or pol ical insti?
tutlons, or tho tariff, or the size and
routh of the country. It'a just in the
icatter o peanuts.
"It Is the sacred, hereditary and In
alienable right of every free-born
American citizen to eat peanuts when
md where he pleases, and to throw
the shells on the floor.
"I was crossing the river the other
lay on one of the ferryboats. The
Edith looked, but she did not sner.
She found herself looking urreptl
tiously and longingly at the lean-faced,
honest-eyed man who had squared his
shoulders at society's disapprobation.
There seemed to be some delay in
the starting of the game.
"The umpire's sick, and they're look
ing up another." reported Walter after
a tour of Investigation.
In a few minutes the manager for
the Stalwarts approached Jerry, who.
had played two seasons ago with the
Stalwarts and was considered expert
authority in all matters pertaining to
the popular game. After a short con
ference Jerry left the stand and went
down to tho ground.
"Oh. Jerry's going to umpire!" ex
claimed some one sitting near Edith,
whose interest in the game was now
intensified.
"The manager of the Lions won't
consent." said Walter, "to have an ex
member of the opposing team act as
umpire."
But the manager of the Lions knew
of Jerry's proficiency in the game. He
had heard also of his stanebness In the
Ledeen case He took Jerry's measure
at a glance and announced that he was
perfectly satisfied with the choice.
It was a close game, and people were
breathless in their Intensity and crazy
In their cheering. At last came an aw
ful moment It was the last inning,
and to that point the game was a tie.
Then came a play that called for a
close decision. It was so close that the
spectators, and even some of the play
ers, could not determine whether or
not the man was "out."
Jerry decided for the Lions. The
Stalwarts were manly and abided stoic
ally by the umpire's decision, but
hisses, jeers and groans came from
the bleachers and from that part of
the grand stand where Walter and his
friends sat.
Jerry's decision in the Ledeen trial
had made him unpopular only with a
certain class, but now he felt that
every one was against him. He knew
ho was- down and out for evermore in
Riverton.
Angry groups were gathering here
and there on the way out of the
grounds.
"You'd better not go down the street
just now. Winters.' said the manager
of one of the teams. "You know what
crazy fools a baseball mob is made
up of."
Jerry's jaw came forward and he
said decisively that he would go now.
He went
There were mutterings as he passed
out of the gate and walked down the
street He walked alone until he was
a block from the grounds. Then some
one stepped up behind him a girl a
every fair, tremulous girl, who said,
timidly and softly:
"Jerry!"
"Edith!"
"I am going with you. Jerry, it you
will let me. I've shut my eyes and my
heart all this time, and something has
opened them. I don't know enough
about baseball to judge professionally
of your decision, but a baseball friend
sat right behind me. and when every
one was mad and yelling at you this
man said: 'By ! There is the man
Diogenes was looking for! There's
nothing so rare nowadays as an honest
man!' I wanted to hug him. but 11!
hug you instead. Jerry if you will If
you will care."
He turned to her with a wonderful
light in his eyes.
"Edith, you are all I do care for!"

by a chain with a hinged portion of
the footboard, resembling a treadle,

Cross of Christ:
when long serv

In memory of the
greatest tragedy on Golgotha, and pro
cessions are solemnly marching to the
stations of the Cross, bearing banners
and crucifixes, and bowing reverently
before altars and pictures commem
orating the sorrowful walk to Cal
vary: when In thd Holy Land thou
sands of pilgrims from every nation
are treading the very "Via Dolorosa"
on which he trod as he left the Holy
City forever, carrying his cross to the
"Accursed Hill" outside the walls: It
may be or Interest to consider the his
tory ant traditions of this wonderful
symbol under which we live and in
the name of which so much has been
wrought of world-wide good to hu
manity, ant. alaa! of great harm
through Christian fanaticism.
Perhaps there Is no other object on
earth about which there has been
mora controversy, more dissensions
and more superstitions than about this
one great object for reverence on the
one side, and for derision on the other.
Ever since the crucifixion it has
left a strong impress on the history of
the nations and has been revered in
the religion of all the sects hearing
the name of Christ It has been sur
roundca by traditions and my3tlclsm
and endowed with supernatural and
miraculous attributes. It has been ta
ken aa the emblem of a faith under
the banner of which great deeds of
heroism have been done, as in olden
days when pioneer mossengers of the
Story ot the Cross filled with religious
seal entered bravely Into uncivilized
and barbarian lands, fcarlesly ignor
ing great dangers.
Heralded by Christian banners the
procession of civilization has spread
to all parts ol the world. Romans car
ried It o the Britons and Saxons. The
worship ot the sun aa observed by the
Incas was brought to an end through
the ascendancy of Spanish bearers of
the cross
In more recent times Spanish
monks, with peace in their hearts,
amid many hardships, wrested from
the aborigines the western coast of
our own country, where they erected
many missions to spread the teach
ings of Christianity. The Influence of
the cross so entirely filled the minds
of its followers that it became the cen
ter subject of the paintings of the old
masters and In time permeated not
only the spirit of this art, but also
tha( of architecture, for we find
throughout the great Christian archi
tecture of the Middle Ages and in all
forms of mediaeval decoration this
sign of the cross standing out conspic
uously. The very foundations of the

lowed the lines of a cross, so that the
very walls from their foundations up
ward might carry with them as they
rose the image of the sacred sign, to
receive its crowning figure displayed
in the ridge line of its roofs. Crosses,
In an endless variety of forms, still
surmount the loftiest and finest parts
of the architecture of the cathedrals
and churches of Europe. Above the
tombs of the departed or even In the
pavements of the church above the
monumental vaults In these cathedrals
this same sign proclaim the faith ot
those who rest beneath.
Being the keynote and tho "glory"
c-; the Christian religion this emblem
soon became prized la other directions
besides those ecclesiastic With the
triumph of Christianity the cross at
once was recognized as a universal
symbol of highest nobility aad honor.
It waa cow considered to add dignity
to the crowns and scepters of emper
ors and princes. It became the proud
est ensign of knightly rank. Tho
greatest warriors were proud to see the
cross on the hilts of their swords as
well aa oa the hannera under which
they fought It also became a sign of
merit for valor and bravery a reward
for deeda ol honor, aa the Iron cross
of Prussia established by William IIL
for patriotic bravery In war.
It waa worn also aa a protectloa fa
times of trouble. To denote the con
secration of those devoted to the aid
of the suffering and needy: the Red
Cross was the confederation of socle

ing out to deliver the Holy Land front
the dominion of the infidel, the brave
warriors were thus named because of
the red cross they wore aa badges on
their right shoulders.
The archbishop's crazier the en
sign of bis office Is the 6taff with a
cross head, distinguishing it from the
"pastoral" staff of bishops and abbots,
which nave a shepherd's crook.
Thus has been experienced the say
ing of Justin Martyr so many years
ago that "the sign of the cross waa
impressed upon the whole of nature.
There is hardly a handicraftsman also
but uses the figure of it among the
Implements of his industry. It forms
a part of man himself." Man has been
created In this form as has been beau
tifully Illustrated by Emily Collier la
the painting depicting the Holy Child's
expression or his love "So wide la
my love."
In the middle ages and in Crusaders
days the cross was the distinctive
symbol of the Christian in contradis
tinction to the Crescent of the Mo
hammedan. The custom of marking one's sig
nature by a cross was first adopted
by Christians in the year 110 to dis
tinguish them from the pagans, and it
stood for a silent oath.
The early Christians immediately
used this sign, which was connected
with their religion, as a secret mes
sage to one another in their first days
of persecution. Mingling with the
persecutors of their faith, they could
thus make themselves known to each
other without cal'g the attention ot
those around them. In visiting the
catacombs in Rome, where they hid
from fear of their persecutors. It la in
tensely Interesting to notice that the
sign so sacred to them Is carved and

prison cells and above the tombs of
their brethren.
