Cowboy Was a Woman.

The sensational discovery has just
been made that one of the most skill
full young COW punchers in the northwest
is a woman. She wore male attire, close
cropped hair, and her skin was tanned
saddle leather. She had punched cows
all the way from Texas to Montana
without her sex being discovered.
She went under the name Of Jim
Footner. but when her sex was accident
ally discovered n few days ago while
working in the Bellefourche region, she
acknowledged that her real name is
Hattie Wallace and that her parents
formerly lived in the copper regions Of
northern Michigan.
After the disclosure made here the
girl left, saying that she would go where
she was unknown and continue her life
as a cowboy, which she dearly loved -

STATES HONOR The BIRD WOMAN
Monument to Be Placed Over Remains Of SakakaWed By
State Of Wyoming. North Dakota Women Will Also
Erect Statue of Lewis and CIarkS' Indian Guide

Lewis and Clark exposition was sug
gested, the part played by Sakaka-
wea lin the overland expedition of the
white men reused keen interest a.
mong the women of the United States.
1t was proposed by the women of Ore
gon to erect some memorial to the
only woman of that hisory making ex-
petition, so Miss Alice Cooper, a Den
YER sculper, was commissioned to
evolve a suitable monument. The
young sculptor evolved a work that
has been pronounced a masterpiece,
and that awakens the admiration of
thousands of tourists who visit Port
land, The squaw, with a papoose cling
ing to her back, is seen pointing at
some distant object-just as the Lewis
and Clark journal describes 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 marking place for the
grave of this remarkable woman.
Her Romantic Career.
Sacajawea had a most romantic ca
reer, which appears in fragmentary
chapters in the journals of Lewis and
Clark. She was the wife of Chabo-
neau, who was picked up as Mime
taree interpreter when the expedition
Preached THAT tribe. Sacajawea was a
Snake, or Shoshone, Indian. She had
been captured by raiding Minnetarees
and had. been sold as a slave to Cha
boneau, who brought her up and later
married her. When the expedition left
the Minnetarees Chaboneau and Sac
ajawea were taken along. The cap
tains were fearful of their reception at

In view of the fact that the club
women of North Dakota are raising
a fund for the purpose of erecting a
statue to Sakakawea, the Bird Wo-
man, who was the guide from this
vicinity to he Pacific coast of the
Lewis and Clark expedition in 1904,
the proposal of the stats of Wyoming
to build a monument on her grave
is a matter of interest here. s
At the last session of the Wyoming
legislature a bill was favorably con-
sidered. providing for the erection Of
a monument to cost not less than
$500, on the site of the burial place
of Sakakawea, the Shoshone squaw
who accompanied the Lewis and Clark
expedition and who rendered invalu-
able services to the intreuid explorers.
ALI that remains is to make certain
of the exact burial place of Sakaka-
wea. 1t seems ito have been proved,
however, that the bird woman is bur
led not far from Fort Washable, the
present agency of the Shoshone tribe
and there are several old indians who
remember Sakakawea, and who have
pointed out the pile of rocks that
marks her last resting place. Sakaka-
wea was not buried on "a seaffald, but
according ito all the reliable testimony
THAT has been gathered, the faithful
squaw was given "a christian burial by
her husband, French scout, and the
