The Grand Canyon
OF the Colorado River

Congress, at its last session, was
asked to appropriate money for monu-
ment to John Wesley Powell, to be
erected somewhere on the rim of the
Grand Canyon Of the Colorado which
he was the first white man to explore.
His achievement differed from those of
other explorers in that they followed
routes or trails more or less known to
the aborigines, while his way was
through chasm so tremendous, 50 ap-
palling in its vastness, so filed with
hidden perils that even the natives
feared and Stunned 1t. Until after
Powell and his companions passed
through the terrific depths of the Grand
Canyon what the world had known of it
was mostly based upon mythical tales
told by the Indians, or some hunter or
prospector. Stories were related Of
parties entering the gorge in boats, and
being carried down with fearful We
locity into whirlpools, where all were
overwhelmed. Others told of under
ground passages of the madly rushing

1t Is singular fact that three
fourths Of the people who come to the
canyon are women. A large number
of them are well along In years, and
the endurance and the nerve they show
is extraordinary. Nearly every woman
who comes insists upon going down to
the bottom of the canyon, while only
half of the men show that amount OF
energy.

jected cut at Panama to be dug In the

here written by Princess de Sagan, for
merly Miss Anna Gould, to friend in
London declaring as untrue the rumors
that her second marriage is unhappy.
She says, however, that if she must
choose between her children and the
prince she will keep the children. She
thinks this can be done by divorce
or legal separation from her present
husband. In fact, one of her letters
implies that the prince is willing to
demand such separation in order to
defeat Count Boni de Castellane's eff
forts to recover the children. The
princess declares herself to be in a
"distracted condition. owing to an ap-
parent probability that Count Boni
finally will succeed unless her second
marriage, because of which he demands
the children, is annulled through di.

that the girl is working in Chicago un-
