BALKAN SITUATION AS 1T
AFFECTS EUROPEAN NATIONS

London, July 23.-The European
concert now has on its hands a situa-
ton so delicate that the utmost tact
and diplomacy must be required in its
handling if Europe is not plunged into
a terrible war over the action of Tur-
key in reoccupying Adrianople Kfrki-
lissch and other European territory
which was given up by her in the
treaty of London.
Bulgaria must sit by and see the
fruits of her hard earned victory dis
appear. An armistice is being slowly
arranged but Greece and Servia are
continuing to advance their forces.
Under the treaty of London Turkey
gave up her possessions in Europe to
the Balkans. She has now retaken
most OF what she gave up and Russia
stands ready to force her back out of
Europe. The cabinet OF Great Britain
will meet TO decide whether or not
Russia will be supported in such a
move by England.

White River Utes' In
Delta---lO in arty

Chiefs McCoCk, Munkets Shavino and
other Utes OF the White River reser-
walton, arrived in Delta Wednesday
morning and camped at the vacant
corner, Seventh and Main.
There were half score of Indians
in the party. making the trip from
their reservation on horseback and
with pack animals, en- route to the
San Juan. and possibly into New
Mexico, via Delta, and among the
several wome- of the party was
Chipeta, the aged widow of Chief
Ouray. of the Uncompahgre Utes.
This is but one of many visits to
Delta and Montrose of Chipeta, and as
usual she was the guest of n. H. Cas-
tie during the days stop.
This valley was formely the home
of the Uncompahgre Utes, and
many old-timers remember well the
incident of their removal to the White
river reservation.
The party this week was dignified,
well behaved lot, and formed a group
as interesting to our children as would
a family of whites to the red resi-
dents one hundred years ago.
In one of our Delta farmer families
is adopted little Ute girl, who has
all the advantages OF home and edu-
cation the white children enjoy, and TO
the Pace family these Indians always
-s=,- -hrOs,ph
Munkets Shavana, son of the old
Ute War Chief Shavana, and one OF
the present sub-chiefs, was one of this
party. The younger Shavana is an
educated Indian and hence of advan-
tage and influence among the rem
nant left of once great Indian ma
tion.
Mr.. Castle possesses a large fund of
information about these Indians. He
traded with them when the Uncom-
pahgre valley was their home and they
greatly prize his friendship. The
venerable Atchee remarked: Castle
is my friend. He Chipeta's friend.
He know Utes when all land here was
theirs"
Chipeta, Mr.. Castle believes, is about
so years old. Her husband, Chief
Ouray, died either on the last day of
July or first day OF August. 1880.
Chief McCook is her brother. She
has little band of sheep and some
land. When asked who looked after
her sheep she replied: "McCook he
watch one white man" Briefly, she
employed one white man and McCook
watched him.
Mountain Sheep, the sub-chief, who
was here last year has since died.
His son was one of the party visiting
Delta this week.
These Indians were well pleased
with the attention the little Indian girl
was receiving in the family of Charley
Pace. White people take fine care OF
little Indian girl" said Atchee TO Mr.
Castle.
When at Delta last year the chiefs
and Chipeta had Sunday dinner at
the Castle home When departing Mrs.
Castle gave Chipeta three young fry
ing chickens which she supposed they
would have for breakfast next day.
On the contrary Chipeta carried them
alive. on horseback clear 10 the reser-
walton and at the recent visit explain
ed TO Mrs. Castle: Chickens white
