WASHINGTON, May 19.-The death
here early this morning of Edward Doug
lass White, veteran chief justice of United
States, cast sorrow today over the Capi-
tol. where during his long service on the
supreme bench he had grown in the adj
miration and esteem of his official asso-
ciates and the entire community.
Although hope for his recovery follow
ing an operation last Friday had been
abandoned since he took turn for the
worse two days ago, the news of his
death, which occurred at > O'Clock this
morning, came as a shock.
The chief justice, rs years old, had en-
ioyed rugged health until he was forced
to submit to the operation for bladder
trouble and his record of attendance on
the supreme bench was traditional. At
the bedside when death came were his
wife, two nieces, and the Rev. Father
Creeden, who had administered the last
sacrament during the early evening.
According to tentative arrangements
interment will take place here in Oak
Hill cemeterw following simple services
under the Catholic ritual to be held al
St Mathews church at 10 o'clock Satur-
day morning.

SACAGAWEA, "THE BIRD
WOMAN" SCOUT

In the Portland (Ore.) city park
stands the statue of an Indian woman.
A little baby is strapped on her back
and her hand is Outstretched to the
west, toward the Pacific ocean. The
statue is that of Sacagawea, 1.-The Bird
Woman" the sixteen-year-old girl
scout and guide who led Lewis and
Clark over the Shining Mountains" to
the MISUNDERSTANDING" toward
which her hand points.
When Lewis and Clark visited the
Hidatsa Indians in North Dakota on
their great exploring trip west, they
found ShoshOne girl living with that
tribe. At the age Of five she had been
captured from her people by Hidatsa
war party. When she was fourteen
years old, Toussaint Charbanneau, a
Professionalism trapper. won her
from her captOr in game Of "hide-
the-bone' and married her the next
year.
The Bird Woman wished to return
to her people and Lewis and Clark
engaged Charbonneau and his wife as
interpreters to the Indians they would
meet. During the winter of 1905 SAGA
gawea gave birth to a son, whom she
called Baptiste, and this tiny papoose
went with his dauntless mother
through all the hardships which the
explorers afterward endured. He was
strapped on Sacagawea's back one day
when the clumsy Charbanneau upset
one of the boats containing the
precious instruments and records of
the party. The Bird Woman at once
sprang overheard into the muddy
stream and rescued them.
More than once Sacagawea proved
her value to the explorers. Far up the
river when the forest and snow baf-
fed her companions and they were
lost, the homing instinct of the In
dian girl led her on and she guided
them safely to her people. The chief
gawea's brother, who was overjoyed
to see his lost sister again. He sold
the white men much-needed horses
and would have stolen them back, had
not the Bird Woman betrayed the plot
to Captain Lewis.
Sacagawea remained with Lewis
and Clark until they reached the Pa
cific. On their return journey she
. stopped with her people, the Sho-
shones, and there she spent the re-
mainder of her days She died on the
Wind River reservation in Wyoming
April 8, 1894, almost hundred years
Of age.

TEACHES BIBLE BY DUCKING
Mother Warned to Be Less Severe
With Children.

Threats Of ducking in the river
may be an effective method of COM
polling children to learn their Bible,
but it does not meet the approval of
the Massachusetts Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Children. Agents
Of the society have recently induced
a western Massachusetts mother to
adopt more approved educational
methods.
Investigators sent out in response
to protests from neighbOrs learned
that it was the woman's custom when
any Of the children failed to give strict
attention to- Bible study, to place the
offender in a burlap bag, throw it over
her shoulder and march down to the
river bank. Dangling the bag over the
cold water with threats of immersion
usually brought quick acquiescence in
her demand for closer perusal of the
commandments and Seatitudes.
The plan apparently had been in
operation for some time, for several
of the older children in the large fam
lily were found to be able to recite
long passages Of the Scriptures without
hesitation.

Special Harvest is Five Days
Ahead of Normal.

Il 10 always wise to select seed corn
early in early enough to
escape killing frosts. That 1s why the
agricultural extension division at Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul, has year after
year fixed on September 1920 as Seed
Corn Time-a period for the special
harvesting Of seed corn for the follow
ing years planting. Killing frosts do
not come In Minnesota usually until
after September 20.
This year, because of the early sea-
son and the advanced stage Of the
corn crop, farmers have an extra
chance to beat the attacks Of the frost
king. The corn crop has matured
earlier than usual because it got an
early start, and to get corn that will
mature In about the same number Of
days next year selection should be
made somewhat earlier than usual.
Corn may have to be planted later

THE GIBRALTAR OF THE
HUDSON
BY T. T. MAXEY

NTEsT POINT, atop the command
w ing heights which line the west
bank of the historic Hudson river,
in the picturesque and so-called "high-
lands" country and some fifty miles
north of New York city, is often re-
ferred to as the "Gibraltar of the Hud-
son."
Here, in a magnificent site Of some
$500 acres, is set down the United
States Military academy-our nat
1onal institution for the training Of
cadets for commissions in the army.
A resolution of the Congress of ITO
provided for the preparation of plan
for "a Military Academy of the
Army" General George Washington
personally interested himself in the
movement.
The original buildings were burned
in 1896, but were rebuilt and the &C
tual creation of the academy as known
today took place in 1902.
At various times after 1875 this
strategic location was fortified and at
the close of the Revolutionary war
West Point was selected as a depot
for the storage of military property.
The majority of the commanding
generals on both sides of the Civil war
were graduates of this academy.
This fact brought the Importance of
the institution so prominently before
the world that its methods were care
fully studied by experts Of practically
every nation of prominence in the
whole world. -
The course of instruction covers
three years and constitutes the most
complete military training In existence.
