INDIAN WIVES POPULAR.
Agent Webster BesieEed nj Spokane
by wOuld-be Husbands.

From the Spokane Spokesman Review.
Since 1t was noised around that there
were scores of dusky Indian heiresses
that awaited white husbands on near
by reservations, the local agency has
been beseiged by love smitten swains,
and Capt. John McA. Webster has in
formed all that he is not running a
matrimonial bureau and turned a BASH
full German laddie away almost harsh-
ly last week who sought a buxom red
lassle.-
"Of course, 1 am always ready to ad-
minister the Indian affairs to the best
OF my ability, but / ceTsSinly do not
wish to usurp the duties of Cupid" said
Capt. Webster. There are many of our
Indian girls happily married to whites.
but II a man wishes an Indian girl and
her homestead he need not expect US to
aid him in his suit"
The young German blushed as he ap-
preached Capt. Webster's desk a few
days ago.
Have any of these Indians got good
lands?" venIured the nonpIussed suitor.
He was told that there was good land
In the hands of the Indians and that
some of 1t might be purchased or leased
from families where several children
had received allotments.
JUST lhOuSnl IL lneTe were any IN
dian girls that would marry a nice fell
low I would not mind. II we had lit
tie something to get a start" he con-
ttnued. IF there is any way to get
one OF the girls I think that it would
be all right and l would try to make
her happy"
Would one of these Indian girls
think OF marrying a white man who is
gentleman in every respect?" pleaded
swain from California in a recent let
ter to Capt. Webster. Il prefer a half
breed. but IL she is good looking
think that ! would be willing to take
a chance at marrying a 'fuIl-blood."
More than a dozen letters have been
received from bachelors In the various
States since the report was circulated
that the Indian girls were wealthy and
would welcome white suitOrs. Several
have appeared in person.
