age on which he visited the Pacific coast at the mouth of the river now named the Columbia, although he did
 not make sure at the time that he came so near discovering a great river. Two American vessels, the Columbia Redivivia, Capt. John Kendrick, and the Lady Washington. Capt. Robert Gray, sailed from Boston September 30. 17S7, with cargoes of goods for the In- dians. They rounded the Horn and sailed up the Pacific coast to Nootka sound, their object being to engage in the fur trade of the great northwest. The two vessels, however, were sepa- rated by a storm soon after passing Cape Horn, and the Lady Washington reached the Oregon coast in August, where, near the forty-sixth parallel, Capt. Gray ran his ship aground in at- tempting to enter an arm of the sea which he already had explored in small boats for some miles and which he be- lieved to be the stream then vaguely known as the River of the West-now the Columbia. The ship was attacked by Indians and one seaman was killed and the mate was wounded. This at- tack caused the ship to put out to sea again. Historians differ as to whether Gray actually visited the mouth of the

Columbia on this voyage. Greenhow holds that the fight with the Indians rook place in the Columbia. but Ban croft is inclined to the belief that it was Tillamook bay. The Columbia and the Lady Washington both anchored in Nootka sound until the next spring. returning to Boston on August 10. i79o.
 It should be remembered that at this time there were many adventurous navieators who were eager to discover this passage. which for . century had been supposed to exist. The Hudson's Bay company. which held the crowns charter granting 1t exclusive right to trade in the whole of interior and western North America above the Spanish possessions. discouraged any attempts to find this passage from the Hudson's bay side. and the navizztors made search for 1t on the Pacific coast.
 Capt. James Cook. the most famous British navigator of his time. had sailed only eight days after the declar- ation of American Independence. in the hope of discovering the imaginary pas sage. On the 18th Of January. ITS. he discovered the Hawaiian islands. which he named the saniSich islands. in honor of the frs. lord of the admiralty. Resunins hls eastward course.

Gray warned them to keep off. but they ad- vanced. and he opened fire on them. It is this incident which George Da- vidson has illustrated in his curious drawing. which gives a most remarka- ble rendering of the heights and head lands at the mouth of the Columbia river. On the filth of May the Colum- bia safely crossed the bar and entered at last the mighty river. upon which Capt. Gray bestowed the name of his ship. He cast anchor ten miles up the river. and a few days later he proceed ed 15 miles farther up the Columbia. got into shoal water by missing the channel. and then dropped down to am chor again near the mouth
 Not long aftervard Capt. Vancouver also sailed up the river. being con- vineed by this time that it really ras the mighty River of the West.

 But Capt. Gray remained only six weeks in Boston after returning from his first voyage, starting for the North Pacific again on the 9th of September, 1790, this time in command of the ship Columbia Redivia. Gray reached Van couver island the next June. About the same time Capt. George Vancou- yer of the British royal navy began a series of voyages up and down the Pa cidc coast, for purposes of exploration In April, 1792, he reached Deception bay" and made some observations falling in little later with the Colum- bia few miles south of the straits of Fuca. Capt. Gray freely informed the Briton as to his own observations, but Vancouver declined to believe in the existence of the River of the West. Once more Great Britain sailed away from an imminent discovery of great importance.

Jacques
THE CHARITY BALL.r v

There is in "The Charity Ball." the great play which David Belasco and Henry c. De Mile wrote in collabora- ton and which the Poli summer stock company is giving at the Jacques this week, a pronounced difference between 1t and the ordinary drama of heart in. terest. The sentiment of this fine, clean play Is neither mawkish nor weak. but very natural and human feeling. The goodness of the Rev John Van Beuren'is far from the ec- clesiastical pose and sanctimonlous smueness of the sleek clerical crea- tions of the stage. His charity lis neither the ostentation of the profes. eional philanthropist nor the cult of q faddist, but the open hearted generosi- ty of a man whose calling has to do with the other half. His affection for his brother Is genuinely honest and un- affected. just As his Judgment oil Dicks voluntary wrong-doing is stern and uncompromising The character of Ann Kruger is another creation that indicates in outline the masterly crafts manship more completely displayed in the other folk of the story. A dra- matist less skilled than this united pair of clever men. would make of Ann . more important part. but the effec- tiveness of the character would be hopelessly ruined. The secret of the power in the delIneatlon of this un- complaining self-sacrificing true heart cd girl lies in her very unpretentious. ness. her quietude and her peculiarity of doing things of which others only talk. The same is true of all the other members of the play. All are pictured with q few sure strokes. but there is nothing hazy about the drawing. 'sThc Charity Ball'' as play. aside from the splendid way it is being done at the Jacques. is worth serious study and appreciation. Prices are 10. 2D and 30 cents. afternoons 10 and 70 cents.

 Cook returned to England after four years of voyaging, and the accounts of his expedition aroused great interest, Great Britain being eager to annex the new country on the Pacific. England, Russia and France each dispatched ex- petitions to explore the region more thoroughly and to share in the fur trade of Nootka sound Capt. John Meares, British navigator, sailed in a vessel to engage in the fur trade on his own responsibility, and during his voyage he found an opening in the coast which he named Deception bay" but which undoubtedly was the mouth of the Columbia: Meares however, did not discover that 1t was a river
