Paris Statue of Franklin.

The two hundredth anniversary Of
the birth Of Benjamin Franklin on the
18th Of January has brought to light
the regard with which that philosopher
and statesman Is esteemed, not only by
Americans, but by foreigners as well.
The memory of Franklin. as first min

much revered in the capital OF that
country, and 1t is quite fitting that the
first statue to him in a foreign cline
should be unveiled in Paris.

that vast and rich country drained by
the Columbia River.
Sacajawea, when but thirteen years
old. was stolen from her people-the
Shoshones-and became slave to the
Dakotas. They treated her well, how.
ever, and at the age of eighteen they
sold her to French fur-trader, Char
boneau, who made her his wife, prom
Using that he would, in time, take her
to her own people. Shortly after this
the Lewis and Clark expedition, with
its motley band, came along, making
their winter quarters in that section
which is now the southern part Of the
Dakotas. The expedition needed q
guide, and Charboneau learning Of
this, told his wife that by guiding the
party she would have a chance to find
her own people. She offered her serv.
ices to the pioneers, which were ac-
cepted; Charboneau was hired as
cook.
During the winter, while the party
was making preparations for moving
forward next spring, Sacajawea gave
birth to q boy baby; yet, not to be de-
TERED in her hope OF again being
united to her people. and with her
baby on her back, she led the party
over the rugged mountains 10 tne neau
waters Of the Columbia.
Before reaching the end Of the jour
ney the explorers came across the
tribe from which the Western heroine
had been stolen. Her own people en-.
deavored to persuade her to remain
with them. Sacajawea had given her
word to guide the men to the Pacific
Ocean and she was not to be swerved
from keeping her promise. This Is
the story which Mrs. Dye has set forth

bravery of the woman guide, how she
saved the band from annihilation at
the hands OF an unfriendly Indian

themselves, in which they give Saca-
jawea the credit for having saved their
lives and having made possible the
success Of their expedition.

STATUE OF SACAJAWEA.
Story of the Indian Maiden Who Pilot
ed Lewis and Clark-Resulto OF
Moman's Work.

Mrs. Eva Emery Dye, OF Oregon
City, Ore, wrote a book on very old
subject but she treated it in another
way. This book. 1.-The Conquest" was
the history Of the Lewis and Clark ex'
petition, with which every school
child is familiar, but she brought out
most refreshing incident showing
the invaluable services rendered the
expedition by one woman.
A number Of women Of Portland,
Ore, banded together under the name
of the Woman's Club, felt in duty
bound to honor the memory OF that
one woman, Sacajawea. Mrs. Dye was
elected president of Sacajawea
Statue Association. With woman's wit
they found various methods to acquire
the necessary $1,000 to erect the
statue. Even with all the money pro
cured the association found itself In
quandary until Mrs. Henry Waldo
Coe, through the generosity of her
husband, came to the rescue with the
copper for the casting. And this lat
ter gift was by no means inconsider
able, for it means nearly ten tons OF
pure copper, not to speak OF the ex.
penses for smelling and shipping the
ore across the continent.
And after all it was but fitting that
this statue should be erected, for had 1t
not been for Sacajawea, the Lewis and
Clark expedition would never have
lived to bring under the American nag

Grand Display of Jewels at Presi.
DENTS Reception to Foreign
Representatives,


President Rooseyelt's reception to the
diplomatic corps, Thursday evening,
January 4th, was one of the most
brilliant functions the White House
has ever presented.
The foreign diplomats and their Sec
retarics and attaches, in rainbow-hued
attire, their breasts bedecked with
gold, silver, emmeled and jewelled
grand crosses; their gold hilted swords,
sashes, belts and gay colored chap
eau, were resplendent living pictures
Of chivalry's romantic age.
Courteous, yet dignifled, these repre-
entatives of knighthood's gallan-
ry and gentleness charmed the vast
assemblage with their speech and
manners.
French, by long usage, is their official
and social language. But many diplo-
mats speak all the Latin tongues and
the others of continental Europe.
The White House echoed the speech
of nearly all civilized nations. The
