One Of Events Of Next Month
to Be Dedication Of Statue to
Sakakawea, Famous Birdwoman

In 1903. after the Louisiana purchase
was made from France. President JEFF
ferson, whose foresight helped to gain
this great territory to the United
States greatly desired to see the new
/ acquisition explored. He secured an
appropriation from crongress and an.
pointed his private secretary, Capt
| MeriWether Lewis. and Capt VIM
Clark to command an expedition num-
bering 45 men, for this purpose. The
! party left Washington in MAY. 1904,
intending to follow the Missouri to its
source, believing the headwa.ers Of
that river and the Columbia not far
apart in longitude. After a trouble
some journey of 1000 miles, battling
against the swift current, they made
camp for the winter of 1SO4-18O5,
about thirty miles north Of the pres
ent site of Bismarck. Here they were
frozen In about four months. They
built huts and were visited by many
inquisitive Indians and officials Of the
Hudson Bay Co. From them they en-
deavored to learn everything possible
about the great unknown land beyond
them. They found that the wife Of
Chaboneau, their local interpreter, was
Shoshone Indian captive, whose birth
had been in the Rocky mountains. She
named Bird woman, because of her
light footedness, was the only person
discoverable after a winters search
who could by possibility serve them as
interpreter and guide among the I'M
known tongues and labyrinthive fast
nesses which they must encounter.
In April they took up their Journey
which was not half over The country
seemed deserted; though they saw wig
vans there were no Indians visible for
four months BY Aug.yy12 the Mis-
souri, had become a rivulet and they
struggled on till they reached the Great
Divide and drank of springs which
flowed to the Pacific.
Food was scarce and not a soul was
seen until Aug. 10, when they surprised
a squaw and formed a friendship with
her and her nation; one of whose
chiefs proved to be a brother of Saka-
kawea the Bird woman" their only
guide through this tracltless wilder
ness. Living on horseffesh obtained
from these Indians and later on dog
meat, they pushed on down the Column
bia to its mouth, the goal of their pill
grimage, traversing a distance they es-
timated at Aba miles. 4

j viewing history OF the expedition,
says:
/ Many an episode in this eventful
transcontinental march and counter
march will hereafter glorify with ro-
mantle associations, islands, rivers,
rock canons aAd mountains all along
its track. Among these none can be
more touching than the story of the
bird woman, her divination of routess
her courage when men quailed, her
reunion with long-lost brother her
spreading as good table with bones
as others could with meat, her NOR
sci of bread for an invalid benefactor,
her presence with her infant attesting
to savages that the expedition could
not be hostile. But when bounties in
land and money were granted to others,
she was unthought Of
Statues of her, however, must yet be
reared by grateful jewellers in lands

1t is to this Indian woman whose
services as guide are inestimable that
the club women of North Dakota are
erecting statue. The movement was
inaugurated at the annual meeting at
jamestown, in October, 1905, by Mrs.
Beulah Amidon of Fargo. wife of Judge
Amtdon of the u. S. court. She has

The statue of bronze is by Crunelle,
of Chicago, and will be unveiled at

They desire to thank all those, in
