events to be. commemorated.
The people of Holland, under royal
auspices, have built a reproduction of
the Half, Moon, to be presented to
the Commission manned with a crew
IN the costumes of the period Of
Henry Hudson. The reception of
this distinguished delegation, togeth-
er, as it is hoped, with ships and Off
cial representatives of foreign ma
tions,, will mark the international
phase of the celebration.
The National Government will be
represented by the Federal troops,
the United States navy and distin-
guished civil officers.
AN interstate participation cannot
be. avoided when two commemorative.
like New York and New Jersey, have
so much in common in their geogra-
ph1cal, historical, social and CONNER
cial relations, and the appointment
by Governor Hughes of fifteen distin-
guished citizens of New Jersey upon
the Commission, as well as the activi-
ties OF New Jersey boards of trade,
Indicate hat such participation is in
contemplation.
The Statewide observance of the
events has been provided for in the
preparations for commemorative ey-
ercises in all the universities, colleges,
schools and learned societies through
out the State.
In the Hudson River Valley every
county seat from Newburgh north
yard is preparing actively for n
day of local celebration.
In New York City and the Hudson
Valley south of Newburgh the feat
ures of the celebration promise to
make it unique in character and of
lasting educational value.

THE HUDSON RIVER.


The great river which Hudson ex-
plored has had many names. 1t was
called Cahohatea and Skanehtade
Gahunda by the Iroquois, Mahicanituc
or Mahican river by the Mohican IN
dams, and Shatemuc by other In
dians; Una Grandissima Riviera by
Verazzano (1524), whence Rio
Grande, Riviere Grande and Grand
River; Rio de San Antonio or River
of Saint Anthony by Gomez (1525);
Rio de Gamas by the Spaniards
(1525-1600); River of the Noun
tains by Hudson (1609), cor Mon
taigne River on Dutch maps (1615-,
1864; River Mandates by De Laet
(1625), or Manhattans River on
Dutch maps G615-1664); River
Mauritius or Maurits River from
Maurice, Prince of Orange, during
the Dutch period; and the MORT
River Clutch period) or North
River (English) to distinguish it
from the South or Delaware River.
Hudson's name has displaced all
these except the North River, which
is applied in a limited way to that
portion of the river opposite the city
of New York.
h Hudson River is very remark
able in several respects. In the first
place, for $50 miles of its length it is
not a true river but a ford. From
Albany to the ocean it's rock bottom,
with the exception Of a few islands, is
below sea-level. How far below, is
not accurately known. Opposite
Storm King Mountain, where the en-
gineers of the new aqueduct for sup
plying New York City with water
from the Catskills hoped to build a
tunnel under the river, they have
bored a thousand feet down into the
dirt and sand that fill the gorge under
the water and have not been able to
find rock bottom. The shore line at
Albany is at practically the same ele-
walton as the shore line at New York,
and the tide rises at Albany two and
eight-tenths feet. This upward and
downward flowing of the tide, of
which Hudson took advantage In his
voyage, had, of course, long been
noticed by the Indians, who spoke Of
the river with wonder as the stream
that flowed both ways.
The river is also remarkable for
its great natural beauty. The dis
tinguished German surgeon, DR.. Adolf
Lorenz, while visiting on its shores in
1902, pronounced it more beautiful
than the Rhine.

900 troops.
Friday, October 4.
Friday, October 1, is devoted to the
naval parade and incidental cere-

for some of our naval vessels to pro-

1t is planned to have as many vessels
of the navy, merchant marine. ex-
cursion boats and pleasure craft as
possible go from New York to New
burgh, taking with them the fac
SMILES of the Half Moon and Cler-
mont.
AS the procession passes up the
river salutes will be fired from eligi-
BILE points.
The memorial arch erected by the
Daughters of the Revolution at Stony
Point battlefield will be dedicated OF
this day.
simultaneously with the advance of
the South Hudson division, it is pro-
posed to have a counter-procession
from Albany to Newburgh, the two
divisions meeting and holding appro-
pirate ceremonies at Newburgh. Here
the Half Moon and Clermont will join
the North Hudson division.
