The rrlji', haughtiness and regard for the

white brothers. Chunda Is a beautiful little
Navajo girl, who Is permitted by her more

There she is educated and graduates as a

company, is a' humorous description of
the various phases of American sports.
In regard to automoblling It states that
"after a quiet day of automoblling' the
victim feels so recuperated that he takes
It to bo rheumatism." "Base ball Is rather
an expensive disease to have, but the pa
tient enjoys himself while he lingers."

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

TOUARKSAC-AJAWEA'S GRAVE
Tribute to the Indian Woman Guide of
Lewis and Clark Expedition;
MEMORIAL ERECTED BY WYOMING
Deserved Honors to the Memorr of
One "Who Served the Pathfinders
of tho Great Northwest si
Century Abo.
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.
