JayES WHITCOMB RILEY in Amazindy, The Children as Pioneers. Once upon a time, just so long ago as ¥henI was a small girl, I went into the Capitol building at Washington to see a picture which I had been tola I must look at a great deal and think about very hard. The picture seemed to my childish judgment to have been rather roughly and hurriedly painted on its great stretch of plastered wall, but the very title, ‘‘Westward the Course of Empire Takes Its Way,” had rather frightened me, and the artist haa done his work with a vim which emphasized the forceful meaning of his title. Much of the picture bas faded from m memory, but one figure, a minor one it may have been in the artist’s plan, stands sharply out terribly expressive to me now as it was all those long years ago. A woman, strongly posed, seems to move toward the setting sun, upon which her eyes are fixed. In herface are lines of pain and of hope. He who runs might read that to press on to the Westward, always to'the Westward, is the woman’s doom. One must read, too, that the doom, fixed by some unknown power, is made a blessing because hope goes before. The sufferings by the way may leave their mark, but they cannot hinder Ler, cannot stop her progress to the far fair land where she is going. Other figures in the picture I remember vaguely—children whe smile to see the sunset’s glory, and, having no past to re- gret and no to-morrow to fear, are safeand bappy clinging to their motbers’ skirts. Men there are, too, in the picture— strong men, with purpose in their faces, and carrying axes that shall hew out their road through the wilderness. There is a great covered wagon, too—the sort they used to call “prairie schooners,” Patient oxen draw it, as in real life the; drew thousands of people the long year’s journey across the plains. ‘Westward the course of empire takes its way! Leaving the Oriental nations out of the question—because China has seemed to stand still without making auiy part of the history of civilization for the last three or four thousand years—the civilized nations of the earth have always been reaching out to the westward. The musty.old history books say that the three civilized races of the world—the three races that have made the history of the world—were once one_people, and lived together somewhere in Western Asia. When these races began their “going west'’ one of them, the Hamitic, became the Egyptian and Chaldean people, and have always kept themselves apart. Another race, the Semitic, has given the world its three great religions—the Jewish, the Christian and the Mohammedan. The third race, the Aryan, is our own, and the race thai has been the planter of new nations. “‘First the glory that was Greece,” then “‘the grandeur that was Rome’’; then Italy, France, Germany, England and finally our own America. These are the nations that have risen, because the Aryan race, the race of progress, has been always obeying the law which glen!_v of}feople have be- lieved originated with Horace Greeley, when he said “Go West, young man " The barbarians from Northern Europe and the polished Latins, descendants of the Greeks, went west together. England took the lan;]:u;ge and customs of the bar- basians, while France and Spain took the religion of the Romans. Long afterward Columbus felt the in- evitable longing to go west. Because he had that longing so deeply impressed ugon his nature that he made great efforts and ‘endured many hardships to eratify it Columbus became a hero to all the world. But, after all, what did he nrore than a young man who told me of his desire to come West, just as if it were a natural feeling, inborn in every breast? “Icame just as far West as I could,” said he, “and then I waded out into the water up to my waist and fired my gun straight toward the setting sunl”’ People always think they have a per- fectly sound reason for following out their destiny. The Pilgrim Fathers and the Huguenots fled from the peopie of their own race to escape religious persecution. It seemed to them safer to go among sav- ageswho lived in a freezing and forbidding land than to yield grecefully some trifling details of their religious ceremonies to the opinions of their kings and their neigh- bors. New England was a good place to emigrate from, and if our hard-headed an- cestors had left it for the sunny South who would have wondered? But the flower- scented forests of the South called all in vain to the Puritans. - Perhaps they thought hu%pinaas would be & sin, and the hardest path to follow would lead to the richest -reward. Perhaps, and this really seems to me the most likely reason, they were only fulfilling the destiny that Ten- nyson hints at when he sings: 2 Through the Ages one increasing purpose runs, And the thoughts of men are widened with the process of the suns. ‘Whatever the reason may be our own people have always been pushing toward the sunset. In New England men and women gave the best part of their lives to laying low the forests, to planting fields and orchards, to harnessing the streams for mill-power. They labored mightéll.iw build themselves houses of logs. ey suffered and waited for the fruits of their toil. "And very likely when the fruit was ripe the time of their going was ripe too. BSome journeyed to Pennsylvania, some to Ohio. " There they struggled again to make & clearing in the forest, to grow a little grain, to build a house of logs. And many families deserted these new homes again, pressing always farther west. 3 I wonder if they felt as did a bright- faced woman who lived nine miles from neighbors, high up in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. “It’s a gitten’ most too thick- | bog “Folks is goin’ and comin’ through the hills all summer long. We'uns wants to settling up of new worlds? Not any- body who thinks about things. Even the history-books, that are so careful always not to let stories creep in between their covers that might interest small people— even these haven’t been able quite to ignore the children who made the dreadful journeys across the plains in the early days. That reminds me that there are plenty of people in the City who could tell ou all about that drive across the plains if they chose. Once I traveled westward in the company of a very great lady who knew, it secemed to me, what were the right sort of things to be pround of. “] have made the journey across the continent in a Pullman car somethin more than forty times,” said this loya American citizen—but I like best to think reported meeting, in all, 515 wagons bound for California and Oregon. This was be- fore the discovery of gold—before the | people really began to emigrate. | _And these wagons were no pleasure-carts, | either, but great prairie-schooners carrying families and all the actual necessities for | the long year’s journey and for the far- i nfis_}:ing of the primitive home at the end | of 1t. Somebody has said that theshardships of | that journey could never have been en- dured by men alone—that the hopes, the 1 thriftiness of the women kept up-the gen- eral courage and averted many calamities. Now, I know perfectly well—don’t you?— that if they wanted to do it people could A LITTLE VIRTUOSO WHO WISHES TO “APPEAR.” about the time when we crossed it with ox teams, walking half the way, I guess, “You should have seen the sort of clothes we wore in those days! Our dresses were of denim, and I remember that even that stout material used to get torn when we raced and played among the aae‘;hrnsh." . What do you think of a lady who talked like that when she might as” well as not bave spent the time telling us about the gowns she had shone in at diplomatic din- ners and even court functions? Or, if you don’t know what those occasions ‘are like, she might have deseribed the dresses she and the other queens wore when they had parties and things. But wasn’t it lovgl of her not to say a word about all tha ,guno entertain every- dy with interesting stories of the jour- Do you think the wagon parties were settled heresbouts,” was her complaint. lney over hills and plains? go back into Arizony.” Does any one suppose that the children didn’t play an important part in all this ‘wrote a letter from not such an important matter? Mrs. Donner, a woman you can read about, ‘ort Laramie in 1846 in which she said that a party justarrived Lust as well sing a song of praise for the rave deeds the children did? R When the Donner party was otnvm'i in the mountains mothers died from their sufferings, and we read, “‘babies cried and l;oaged in the arms of their young sise TS, And when at last two or three desperate men decided to try to walk to the settle- ments through the dreadful snow. hopin, to bring back relief, ‘Jacob Donner’s old- est boy insisted that he was szmng enough to go and help. And Patty Reed, full of hope and courage, refused o be carried by her father and started on foot.” Pnttdy Reed, I'd have you know, was 8 years old, and she had starved till she was very thin. Think of that, you plump little darlings, who think you bestow an honor when i\on say, “I want my papa to carry me!” hink of that compared with the little girl uptown who said when papa asked er if she couldn’t walk a few blocks rather thll;l, take a car, “I'll walk if you’ll carry me. Patty Reed was too small-to walk in the footsteps of the men who beat the path through the snow, so she grew tired very soon. Her brain must have rested from her sufferings, but even then her face was wreathed in smiles and she kept telling her father and the men that she saw bright angels all about them—that they would surely be saved. Poor little Patty sank down at last, and was only kept alive by a mitten-thumwbful of crumbs, which her father moistened first with his own lips and then placed a little at a time between bers. The last part of the way Patty had to be carried. But I’ll warrant that even then she paid herdpassa e with words of cheer. After three days the party reached a cam, where they were warmed and fed ang saved. ‘What a very little woman was that same Patty! Assoon asshe was comforted she drew out of the bosom of her dress a little wooden dolly she had carried all that dreadful time. And with it she had treasured a lock of gray hair she had cut from the head of her beloved grandma, who was left in the far-away Eastern home. A little glass salt-cellar, too, a childish treasure, she had clung to ail the way. In one of the beautiful homes of San Jose those three things, with an old woolen mitten which still has traces of crumbs in its thumbs, are carefully treasured. And I wonder if Patty Reed’s grandchildren don’t cry a little bit over them sometimes. That is enough about hard times for one while. But another one of the history men tells a story which must be true, since it’s written in a book, of some chil- dren who haven’t had half enough credit for what they did. It is true that the Spanish Governor, Alvarado, received a report of the finding of gold in_ California in 1842, It was at a place called San Francis- uito, about thirty-five miles from s Angeles, that a ranchero named Francisco Lopez found this gold. He ulled up some wild onions, it is said, and ound gold in the earth about their roots. However all that may be everybody knows that it was the discovery of gold on the AmericanRiverin 1846 that caused the great gold-fever to break out and spread over all the civilized world. Jacob Wright Harlan, 2 member of Colonel Fremont’s staff, has written 8 book about early days in Cali- fornia, and in it he tells the story of the discovery of gold after this fashion: “In Coloma lived my father's sister, married to Peter Wimmer, whom I h always known as Uncle Peter. He had crossed the plains with us and had re- mained at Sutters Fort. About the first of 1847 I received a letter from Uncle Peter which changed all my plans of life, _“In that letter he told me that, some time before, Captain Sutter had made a contract with him and J. W, Marshall to build for the captain & sawmill at Coloma, on the south fork of the American River. “Uncle Peter had four children, three boys and a little girl—my cousin. While he millrace was being dug the children found it a place which they liked to play in, and one day, while t{ney were thus playmfi‘,’ little John Wimmer, the second oldest boy, found a piece of gold of the valué of about $8. It was bright and greuy, and the. child ran to the ouse and showed it to his father and to Marshall. It was washing day, and at Marsball's “fi estion the nugget was put into the was iettle among the boiling suds. After some [ittle time 5‘!8 found” to be untarnished, and Marshall unfl}lis gu;t‘n gold. “‘He took it to Sutters Fort, where it was tested and found to be tm{;' gold. While Marshall was gone to the fort the children picked up about four ounces more of gold, g0 that when Captain Sutter came up to the sawmill to see for himself, which he ;Immedinwly did, Uncle Peter showed this second ' discovery of the chil- dren’s, and satisfied him that a most valn- ble source of wealth had been found. Then Sutter and Marshall and Wimmer, calling the Coloma Indians wgether. en- tered ‘into an agreement or lease 'with them, by which they leased from the In- dians a territory twelve miles square. The were to be in #our, meat, clothes, blankets, knives and orna- ments, and the captain paid them at once for the coming year. Now, w%y shouldn’t that second old- est boy of Uncle Peter Wimmer be handed down to posterity as the actual discoverer of gold in California? And haven’t I, on the whole, made out a very fair case for the children as pioneers in the march that goes always ““Westward, ho?"” M.C.J. A Little Girl Who Works. Wise old Thomas Carlisle, who couldn’t abide a person who hadn’t settled down to some great purpose in life, would have been delighted with a little maid who is just now trying to learn to live in our City. he has a purpose in life, this little Marie Stevenson, and has had ever since she was big enough to lisp about it—and nobody knows how long before that. Marie’s mother is a sweet singer who is well known in Italy and in England as Mme. Calpi, and a great musician like her mother wouid_ little Marie be. Nobody else wishes it; nobody else ever has wished it. The little girl's mother and her friends know the hardships of the stage too well to wish Marie to undertake them. But ever since her baby fingers could reach the keyboard of a piano, and long before her,small lips could form intelligible sentences the child has been making music. Her home has been in Italy until this year, and the very atmosphere about her was full of music always. Though she is not vet 10 she can sing arias from the great Italian overas, choos- mg a key that will not strain her childish voite, acting the parts of the operas that she loves with all the demonstrative warmth of a genuine little emotional Italian—which she is. “Don’t you think I am old enough to uyPear? ‘‘Are you not glad that we are to hear ‘Faust’ and ‘Traviata ?’ X ““Will you please tell me which are your favorite operas? # “Have you ever heard my mother sing?” These and many more are the questions that come pouring.out at you from Marie's little impatient throat—impatient to b‘A warbiing for big audiences. { Because music she must have in some shape Marie is atudyini the violin with a bearded professor.” She applies herself with fervor, and her eyes flash as she tells yon, waving her bow by way of emphasis, “With- this I shall perhaps be allowed to appear in three monchs!” My favorite opera?” says she. “Oh, I love ‘La Cavalleria Rusticana’ best of all. You do not nave that here IIguess. “I am singing most of all *T1 Trovatore,’ but I love ‘Jocundsa,” too—have you that over here?” ; Marie speaks English as well as she does Ttalian or French, and she has learned all she knows of it in one little year. Isn’t that doing pretty well for a small girl not yet 10? 1 Just now she is working very hard, just as she always works at anything she under- takes, to learn German and Spanish. She has found that people who do not wish her to understand often use those languages, and I fearit 1sa touch of pique which makes her in such a hurry to learn. The moral of this story? Ob, I only wanted to show you that l;iera are some children who want to learn things so badly that they will do it in spite of every- thing. Marie has never been to Scmok and when she came to London and live in hotels, with nothing to do all day long, she actually taught herseli to read English very well. She knew the letters, of course, and she heard people about her using English WOr Then she used to work away at sg-mug out the signs on the shops, and the advertisements in the newspapers. I wonder if there is another little girl in all San Franeiseo who has taught berself to read, to play the piano and to sing operas? —_— The earliest cap was probably composed of the skin of the head of an animal, worn with the hair outside, nose and ears pro- truding.” This form of cap has been de- victed on many ancient monuments.
