Columbia River Thrice Named

CoIumbia Rivef Thrice Named.
 The Columbia river has had three names. It was first called the Oregon. Afterward it was called the St. Rodue, but when it was discovered by Robert Gray in 1792 it was given the name of his vessel, the Columbia, in place of the two floating appellations, Oregon and St. Roque. According to Whitney. the original name of the river was the Orejon, "big ear'' or lone that has big ears," the allusion being to the custom of the Indians who were found in it's region of stretching their ears by bor- ing them and crowding them with or naments.

STANDING OF THE CLUES.

New York, April 16.-The game here yesterday produced one of the most hotly contested pitchers battles ever witnessed on the local diamond. For thirteen innings Wilhelm for Brooklyn and Ames for New York battled for It was a brilliant exhibition of pitch ing, especially for so early in the sea son. Whether it is that the pitchers are unusually we'll advanced this year or whether the players are below their batting form. does not detract from the exhibition. Ames pitched no-hit game up to the tenth inning, and had his teammates given him good bat ting support, the New York pitcher might have earned a new laurel. While Ames was doing great things for the Giants, Wilhelm suffered little by comparison, as he pitched a great game for the team on the other side of the bridge.

Singers have strengthened their one weak spot-the pitching staff. Tommy Cougsilin, once with the St. Joseph's has cult his job with the railroad and has entered the employ of the Singer Go. Singers would have won hands down if they had a good pitcher to help out Burdick last season. With Cougl lin in the box they will be really dangerous to the other clubs.
 Warner Brothers will have a crack battery in Livermore and White. Liv- ermore will be remembered as having been the star pitcher with the New fields few seasons ago. while White did the bulk of the catching for the West Ends last season.
