Ignorance Of Indian Marriage Custom
Involves Trouble.

Denver, Col, Feb. 6.-The Ute
Indians in the vicinity Of Iguacio
are making great preparations for
the marriage of Manager John z
Altberger of the Western Union
telegraph company of this city and
a pretty little squaw of Charles
tribe. Mr.. Altberger is not in love
with this flower of the prairie. He
is merely attached to her by a
string of beads. When the Indians
were in this city during the last
carnival Mr.. Altberger wished to
be friendly with the tribe and gave
the girls father a watch and the
girl a beautiful necklace. Recently
he received a handsome jacket
from the sqaw. Ii was beautifully
embroidered with beads and bears
teeth. He was very much pleased
with his present until he learned
of the Indian eustom-that when
he gave the squaw the beads he
had proposed marriage to her and
when she sent him the jacket she
had accepted his proposal.
Mr.. Altberger was very much
shocked at the intelligence and said
that the girl would stand no show
in the courts, even if she filed a
breach of promise suit. He was
informed that the Utes did not set
tie such affairs in the courts, but
always used a knife or a tomahawk.
Today Mr. Altberger received a
letter from Chief Charlie informing
him that all arrangements for the
marriage are complete and that if
he does not fulfill his engagement
Charlie will come to Denver and
use violence.
John'P. Altbgger is well known
in Kansas City. For several years
previous to his accepting the man.
agership at Denver he was the rep.
resentative of the Western Union
at the union depot.
