chased pelts from the Northwest Com
pany, the Mackinaw Company or the
Hudson Bay Company. In good years
and in bad years he prospered. for he was
a genius as merchant. He was trade
economist. Most of the goods he ex-
changed for pelts he manufactured him
self.
BY the close of the eighteenth century
he was the richest man in the United
States. Then. as his wealth continued to
grow, he did a thing that many persons
thought was foolish. He bought land
Most of the land that he bought was on
oped section, and did not seem likely to
be encroached upon by the little city for
generations to come. Occasionally he
spread a bit in his land investments. Once
he purchased an estate of $1,000 acres up
the Hudson. The wisest men in New
York said he was inviting ruin. tying up
vast sums in unproductive land that
meant nothing for him but taxes. But he
kept on buying land.
-
Then. In the first decade Of the nine
teenth century. Louisiana was purchased
from France, and John Jacob Aston, sit
ting in his Office in Fearl street. studied
the new map of the United States and
marveled over the possibilities the newly
acquired empire opened to the nation.
less known then than Is the interior Of
Africa today. A few years before the
Columbia. that mighty river of the north,
had been discovered. The Rocky noun
tains were q barrier hard to cross. A
great domain in the far northwest would
become the territory of the nation whose
people first established themselves there
and raised the flag. To establish chain
of trading stations along the Missouri to
its headwaters and then from the head
waters of the Columbia on the other side
Of the Rockies down to the mouth OF the
big river on the Pacific shore would omen
a highway to trade and settlement. The
station at the mouth of the Columbia
river would be q depot from which fleet
might trade along the northwest coast to
the Russian possessions in Alaska, and
also with the rich markets Of China and
the whole Pacific
It must be understood that thus far the
whole Columbia river country was open
territory II the British got there first
of the Louisiana that Jefferson purchased
were vague. And what made the situa-
ton acute was the fact that the North
west Company had pushed across the Ca
trading posts In section it called New
Caledonia. 1t was nearing the Pacific
and approaching the Columbia valley.
To Washington went Mr.. Aston to get
from the President the sanction of the
government for the magnificent plan he
had in mind. He got the enthusiastic sup
port Of Mr. Jefferson and the cabinet. No
doubt Mr.. Aston saw great profit for him
self in the enterprise. but far more than
profit he sought the fame the project
would bring to him.
There was lot Of work preparing prop
erly for the expedition. First Of all. Mr..
Astor organized the American Fur Com

never make another bet and when James
made a promise II was a perfectly good
promise. He kept 1t even to mis- own
hurt, because James was a true sport.
Genevieve fancied, poor child, when
she married this James who played the
ponies that she was going to get clear
away from the Genevieve-ness which had
environed her maiden days and be jimmy,
just like she had dreamed. But she
found that when they went down town
in the evening they went to a musical
comedy and James laughed a big good
natured laugh and knew the songs right
away, 80 that he sang them in high
tenor voice as soon as ever they got
home. No. he did not sing them at the
show. Have I not already specified that
James was a true sport?
James had golden tenor voice that
would have made anything sound good,
So Genevieve rather enjoyed the musi-
cal comedy and its repetition at home.
But after they had heard the songs and
laughed their little laugh they used to 60

jimmy. Not even Jenny. mind you. but
jimmy. And. OF all things on earth, she
married a James who played the ponies.
What does playing the ponies" mean?
Well, little dears, It means that James
thought he knew about the trot
horses, the thoroughbred gee-gees, the
SLIM bright-coated, frisky fellows who
are the first essentials in the sport of
kings" which is SO likely to die Of starva-
ton these days because other sports
have II outclassed.
No, dears, he wasn't a lion tanner by
profession. In fact, the tiger sometimes
had him quite tame. But his real bust
ness was with the ponies. Their light
feet tap-tapped through his waking
dreams and his sleeping dreams, and
quite frequently they became golden
realities. Because James was In the know.
But when Genevieve married her James
she \did so after his days of taking
a chance were over. He promised him
self on his wedding day that he would
