'Beatrix of Clare," by John Reed Scott, author of "The Colonel of the Red Hust sars,' Is a romance- whose scenes are laid In England at the time of Richard the Third, who Is one of the leading characters. As It has long been Mr. Scott's belief tryit Richard the Third was a very different character from what he Is generally cred ited with being, he has portrayed him as a man no worse and some better than the majority of princes and kings of his time and age, of boundless ambition, unswerv ing determination and supreme ability. The heroine Is the countess of Clare, a very beautiful personage who Is an ornament of the court and a favorite of the queen. Naturally she Is very popular and there is great rivalry among her admirers, who try their skill in all sorts of adventuresome ways to win her favor, until the best man wins. The enthusiasm of these wild per formers is Infectious and the reader becomes much interested. There are four full page Illustrations In color by Clarende P. Under wood. The J. B.

At the last session of the Wyoming leg islature a bill was favorably considered providing for the erection of a monument to cost not less than 1500, on the site of the burial place of Sacajawea, the Sho shone squaw who accompanied the Lewis and Clark exposition a-nd who rendered In valuable services to the intrepid explorers. All that remains Is to make certain of the exact burial place of Sacajawea. It seems to have been proved, however, that " the bird woman Is burled not far from Fort Washakie, the present agency of the Shoshone tribe. The Shoshones have remained Intact as a tribe, and there are several old Indians who remember Sacajawea, and who have pointed out the pile of rocks that marks her last resting place. Sacajawea was not buried on a scaffold, but, according to all the reliable testimony that has been gathered, the faithful squaw was given a Christian burial by her husband, a French scout, and the pile of rocks over her grave kept her remains secure from the ghoulish coy otes and wolves that Infest the plains burial grounds. When the state of Wyoming thus honors Sacajawea, "the bird woman." will have more monuments than have ever fallen to the lot of any squaw, not excepting Poca hontas. When the Lewis and Clark ex position was suggested, the part played by Bacajewea In the overland expedition of the white men roused keen Interest among the women of the United States. It was proposed by the women of Oregon to erect some memorial to the only woman of that history-making expedition, so Miss Alice Cooper, a Denver sculptor, was commis sioned to evolve a suitable monument The young sculptor evolved a work that haa been pronounced a masterpiece, and that awakens the admiration of thousands ot tourists who visit Portland. The squaw. with a papoose clinging to her neck, is seen pointing at some distant object Just as the Lewis and Clark journal describe the way In which she pointed out many a mountain pass that made travel easy for the explorers. While the memorial at the squaw's grave will not be so costly or Imposing as the Portland monument, it will at least afford an appropriate mark ing place for the grave of this remarkable woman. A Itoinantle Career. Sacajawea had a most romantic career, which appears in fragmentary chapters In the journals of Lewis and Clark. She mas the wife of Chaboneau, who was picked up as a Mlnnetaree Interpreter when the expedition reached that tribe. Sacajawea was a Snake, or Shoshone, Indian. She had been captured by raiding Minnetarees and bad been sold as a slave to Chaboneau, who bought her up and later married her. When the expedition left the Minnetarees Chaboneau and Sacajawea were taken along. The captains were fearful of their reception at the hands of the powerful Shoshones, and desired someone to act as an Interpreter when that tribe was reached Sacajawea wbjj taken along for this pur pose. She had given birth to a child while the expedition was in the Mlnnetaree stronghold, but, with customary Indian hardihood, tho young mother boldly faced all the perils and hardships of the Journey Sarajawea's meeting with her own peo ple Is thus described In the journals'. "On setting out at 7 o'clock Captain Clark with Chaboneau and his wife walked on shore, but they had not gone more than a mile before the captain saw Sacajawea who was with her husband, 100 yards ahead began to dance and show every , mark of the most extravagant Joy, turning around and pointing to several Indians, whom he now saw advancing on horseback, buck lng her Angers at the same time to show they were of her native tribe, we soon drew near the camp, and just as we ap proached a woman made her way through the crowd toward Sacajawea, and, recog nizing each other, they embraced with tho most tender affection. . The meeting of these two young women had In It some thing peculiarly touching, not only In the ardent manner In which their feelings were expressed, but from the real interest of their situation. They had been companions In childhood; In the same battle with the Minnetarees they had been taken prisoners; they had shared the same rigors of cap tivity till one had escaped from the Min netarees with scarce a hope of ever seeing her friend released from the hands of her enemies." Meeting with the Explorers. After a conference with a chief. Sacaja wea was sent for as Interpreter, and the Journal continues: "She came Into the tent, sat down and waa beginning to In terpret when In the person of Cameha walt she recognized her brother; she In stantly Jumped up and ran and embraced him, throwing her blanket over him and weeping profusely; the chief wes himself moved, ' though not to the same dogrte. After some conversation between them she resumed her seat and attempted to Inter pret for us, but her new situation seemed to overpower her, and Bhe "was frequently interrupted by her' tears. After the coun cil was finished the unfortunate woman i learned that all her family was dead, ex- j cept two brothers, one of whom was ab sent, and a son of her elder sister, a iniill boy, who was Immediately adopted by her.'' The Journals pay the highest tribute to the Shoshones as a nation. This powerful tribe, whose friendliness Lewis und Clark especially desired, might not have been so favorably disposed toward the adventur ers had It not been for th young Snake woman who accompanied the expedition. But her work as an interpreter was only a nraall part of the service this remark able woman rendered Lewis and Clark. Time and again the journals pay tribute to her wonderful memory. As a child she bad wandered over much of the wilder ness, and she seemed to remember every trail and every pass and every landmark in the wild country through which the ex pedition traveled. More than once the party would have been halted by appar ently impassable barriers, but always Sacajawea cam to the rescue and pointed out some pass through which she had traveled In childhood. A Faithful Gnlde. After the separation of the party, Sa cajawea proceeded with Captain Lewis along Clark's river, near the Yellowstone. Here Is one Instance of her wonderful memory, quoted from the journals: "Along these roads there are also some appearance of old buffalo paths, and some Old heads of buffaloes and as these animals have wonderful sagacity In the choice of their routes, the coincidence of a buffalo with an Indian road was the strong est assurance that it was best. In the aft ernoon we passed along the hillside, north of the creek, till in the course of six miles we entered an extensive level plain. Here the tracks of the Indians scattered so we could no longer pursue them, but Saca jawea recognized the plain Immediately. She had traveled It often in her childhood and Informed us It was the great resort of the Shoshones who came for the pur pose of gathering quamash and cows and taking beaver; and that glade track was a branch of Wisdom river, and that, on reaching the higher part of the plain, one should see a gap In the mountains, on the course to our canoes, and from that gap a high point of mountain covered with snow." Struggling over dangerous mountain pauses, and shooting rapids In frail canoes, the party was always accompanied by Sa cajawea. On the return of the expedition Chaboneau and his wife decided to remain with the Shoshones. The Interpreter was paid something like $600 for his services.' but no record Is made of paying Sacajawea. The squaw remained among her people to the last, on the plains watered by the Wind river In Wyoming. Here the faith ful "bird woman" died, and It Is only fitting that her grave should be marked as the state of Wyoming has proposed. Portlund Oregonlan. PRATTLE OF THE YOUNGSTEHS.
