How INDIANS CONDUCT RACES IN Col.
oRADo.-L arning from Charlie ana
Ingler, chiefs of th- Menacho and Capote
bands of Ute Indians. that they were
gong to run their horses against the
Weimanuchts of the same tribe, &c.
cepted their invitation and rode out to
heir track one peasant afternoon abou,
'hree weeks ago and became Sd. ctator
OF some of the fairest and most quietly
conducted hors racing I ever Witnessed
The track is straight stretch Of p- -rhaps
mile in length. On opposite sides OF
the outcome the head men Of the op-
posite bands seat themselves upon the
ground in circle, pass from hand to
hand the pipe, FROM which each in sue
cession Duffs blue wreath of smoke
Aud while this is going on horse ,s
ridden from one side by nearly naked
Innian boy and slowly guided down th.
track, and as be leaves the stand one o.
his hackers rises from the group in coun.
ell and brings forward close to the track
such articles as he desires to wager On
his horse-blankets, skins. furs, fancy
clothing and ornaments, guns, saddles
"hu o"'VA ooiiuio -tItOWtuk du LOReLQeT
on the ground in plain view of the other
side, who at once advance like numbsr
OF articles in a pile on the other side of
the track. Another barelegeed Indian
boy is mounted and started down th.
track. The two riders turn at point
designated by the owners at the head of
the track, and without anyone to give
the word the start is made; and if both
are satisfied the race is run, otherwise
both go back, and when both are salts
fled the first out is the winner. The man
OF the winning side walks across the
track, gathers the stakes and returns un.
questioned. Four times I saw the
Wlemanuche man walk to the side of
the Menaches and Capotes and bear off
their most valued prizes, while no word
of complaint arose from the losers, and
but few signs of exultation were exhibited
by the winners. The contests have been
renewed every week since, until the
Menaches and Capotes have lost nearly
all their valuablts, and they are now
looking for horse with which to win
back their goods and chattels. ST Little
