renWr of Ihe Onulrat Osage Tribe
Homanllr Features of the
Mrteh.
On the Osage ffierviilnn, inJIan Terri
tory. September 24. occurred the mot elab
orate wedding In the history of the Osige
Indian. This wedding- Is thought by the
ether Indiana to be about the lnt of Its
kind that will ever be celebrated by this
Irlbe. This conclusion In due to the In
roads civilisation Is making upon Indian
sustoms, and Is also largely due to the
ract that nearly all of the younger mem
bers of the tribe are entering schools, and
the Influence of these schools make them
drop their native habits and cumoms. This
wedding even was not letter perfect, ac
cording to all the rites of the red man, and
at one time It looked as though the cere
mony would be declared olt because the
groom refused to attire himself la blanket
ar.d red paint.
The contracting psrlles were Arthur Bon
nlecastle, a full blood Osage, and Angle
Penn. The bride has a email strain of
white blood In her veins, ht:r lu'.lier being
a mixed blood, but her mother was a full
blood Osage squaw. The two are of the
higher type of tho red race much higher.
In fact, than Is often found and every
fullblood Indian on the reservation be
lleves they are the two best young people
of trt tribe. Because of their general popu
larity every Indian attended the wedding.

Ing necessary for the Indian. Nearly 300
white people, residents of the reservation
and nearby towis, were Invited, and were
In attendance.
The story of the romance that leads up
to this wedding Is a pretty one. When Ar
thur Bonnlecastle was I years old his
parents both died, leaving him without
relative upon whom he could call, so he
wm packed off to the Osage mission ' In
Kansas, more to get him out of the way
than to secure for him an education. Here
he started his education, and in a few years
was sent to the Carlisle Institute, where
he graduated with high honors.
Valor Soldier.
When the first call for volunteer in the
last war was made he at once enlisted and
saw service In Cuba. He went to China
with his regiment, and was the second man
over the walls of Peking. For this service he
wears a medal, presented to him by the
United States government, and of which he
. is very proud. After the trouble in China
was over he was transferred to the Philip
pines with his regiment, and served there
until nine months ago, when ha waa honor
ably discharged, and left tho service a
ilrst sergeant of his company. Six months
ago he returned to the reservation, the
homo. of his young boyhood. To him all
the manners and customs of hla people
were new, and It required some little time
again to acquire the Osage language, al
though he speaks English, French and
Spanish like a native.
. Ho is the Ideal type of the Indian, tall.
straight as an arrow, and la absolutely
honest.. He has picked up no bad hablta in
hla travels to different parts of the world,
and his association and experiences have
given hint a wide and correct knowledge of
things outride of the ordinary. In his six
months' residence on the reservation he has
become well acquainted with the people and
has assumed the management of his farm
and business Interests, which, during his
absence, had been In the hands of his
brother and the government agent. The
Indians, and especially the fullblood, ad
mire the young man very much, while the
white upon the reservation look upon him
a the brightest fullblood of the tribe. It
seems fitting, indeed, that ho should see
and fall in love with pretty Angle Penn,
who is bis equal in every way.
Bhs is regarded a the most progressive
Indian Woman in the Osage country, and
her people admire her, one and all. She Is
loved by all the white people v. ho know
her. Her beauty I known from one end of
the reservation to the other. There I not a
more beautiful Indian woman in the coun
- try than ah. She 1 17 year old, while her
husband I 24. Her entire life ha been
spent on the Osage reservation. She was
educated at the agency school, and posses
ses a good an education as any white girl
who graduates from a high school.
After the manner and custom of the full
bloods, the girl has always been kept with
her mother, except when in school; the
Osage women never allowing their daugh
ter out of their sight after they reach
th age of 11 years.
Lot at First Sight.
' When Bonnlecastle came to the reserva
, tlon ho was heart and fancy free. One day
while at the agency at Pawhuska, he saw
th girl, and it was a case of love at first
sight with him. He told hi brother about
her and Informed him that he waa going
. to call upon , her. This waa one of the
manner he had learned while In the white
man' country, but It doesn't go on th
Osage reservation. The brother waa fa
miliar with all of the Indian customs, and
told the lover that would never do. Henry
Bonnlecastle, the brother, thn explained
the proper method and told him that, in
order to secure the woman of his cholco
ho must buy her, and also that he would
probably have to bid at an auction sale,
against any other eligible young man on
th reservation who chanced to want the
young woman. To this plan th lover' ob
jected, and classed the procedure' a being
equal to purchasing steer. .
Nevertheless, this la th custom, and
after some argument against it he learned
that without going through till form he
would, lu all probability, nover be able u
talk to or even se the girl he wanted.
H finally agreed and left th? arrange
ment to hi brother, because, among the
Osages, th lover never ei ters into the
trade, but some male relative makes the
purchase, under the directions of the lover,
and then draw upon him for the ex
pense of th transaction. -
The brother in thl case went to Sassy
Calf, a near relative of the girl, and told
Wm of th derdrea of hts brother. Sussy
Calf at once assumed the role of match
maker and aent out word that upon a
certain day he would receive bids tor the
hand, if not the heart, of Angle Penn.
Upon the day sot, four young bucks, all
accompanied by their male relative, ap
pearea at in noma or Sassy Calf. A feast
waa served and th business of th day
Declared ready; then the bidding began.
j ne reiauve or me young men squatted
in a circle, in tn center of which stood
Basay Calf, ready to conduct the sale. Pre
vious to tills the young men had been
allowed an opportunity of taking a look
at th girl, but were not allowed to talk
xo ner. mey mad up tnelr mind Just
how much a wife of that kind was worth
to them -and notified their relative ho
much to bid before dropping out of the
game. Bonnlecastle told hi brother that

The bidding was spirited, but Bonnlecas
tle' brother raised every one, and finally
was declared the successful purchaser.
The proceeds of The sale go to the girl's
relatlVe and toward defraying the ex
penses of the wedding. The amount finally
agreed upon for this girl was fSOO In csh
for the wedding feast, a race horse known
as Hoodoo, valued at $650, and fifteen good
Indian ponies, valued at T0O. The horse
Hoodoo Was to go to Sassy Calf, the match,
maker, and the fifteen Indian ponies were
to go to th guest at the wedding.
The date was agreed upon at the time
and the arrangements were all made by
the men. The bride had no hand In this,
and was not even told who wa to be hei
husband. All she knew wa that she wa
going to be married, and that 1 considered
enough for any Indian woman.
The order for the bride's trousseau wa
given to the Delaware Indian, who live
east of the Osage reservation, and who are
adepts at Indian needle and fancy work.
It wa th most elaborate ever worn by an
Osage bride, and Its cost was nearly
11,600.
During the time these preparation wer
being made th bride waa not willing for
the marriage to take place. She feared
she was to be married to some blanketed
buck, and such a husband did not In the
least suit her progressive Ideaa. Her ob
jections were not taken Into consideration
by the relatives, and little attention was
paid to her; In fact, an Indian bride is of
mall consequence.
Th day for th wadding arrived, and
all th Indiana wer In attendance at the
Indian camp, neas Pawhunks.. They had
arrived several dy before the date set,
and were enjoying a season of feasting.
Upon th morning oc the wedding day all
the Indians attired themselves in their
gaudiest blankets, put on their best paint
and brightest feather. Th bride wa
taken from her home to the tent of a
neighbor, and tnere tne squaws iiruncW
to dresa her tn the wedding finery. This
wa all don according te th custom of
ages, and it required about three hour to
complete her toilet. Then the procession
started for th home of the groom-to-be,
short distance away. During thla time the
man In the case had not been seen. He
was In hts tepee, awaiting the appearance
of the bride.
In a buggy drawn by two Indian ponies,
that were led by a couple of the male rela
tives of the bride, she rode, and with her
rode the maid of honor. The bridesmaids.
four In number, rode on horses, two upon
each side of the buggy. Without delay the
procession proceeded to the front of the
tepee occupied by Bonnlecastle. There th
bride left the buggy and the four brides
maids placed her on a blanket, which wa
wrapped around her, and then four squaws
seized the blanket and took H Inelde, where
the young man awaited. Now for th Crst
time the bride saw her future husband.
In a few moments th two appeared before
the tent, surrounded by th maid of honor
and the bridesmaids.
At this point th wedding came noat
being declared off, because the groom, in
atead of wealing blanket, war bonnet and
paint, a th Indians all sxpected and as
custom demanded, stepped forth from th
tepee In a neat Siting suit of broadcloth.
i wli.ll shirt, lajidiiig collar, tie,
the head men of the tribe went to him
nd urged him to don th blanket and
feathers. He flatly refused. They in
sisted, and he finally told them plainly
tkat ha was there to be married, and he
was going to wear the clothing of the
white man. He also added that if they
did not like his plan they could go to a
place hotter than th Osage reservation.
A counci! of th committee waa held and,
after a headed argument, Bonnlecastle won
hi point, and th ceremony proceeded.
Here the groom Introduced another feature
not on the program, and not In accord
ance with Qie traditional customs, but no
objections 'were made to It by the Indians.
After the argument about the groom's
dress wai settled, a priest atepped out
of the crowd of whit people and per
formed the wedding ceremony according
to the rite of th Catholic church. Th
Indian ceremony was then resumed and th
race wer called.
Sassy Calf, mounted upon a fine horse be
longing to the groom, rode about ZOO yards
from th crowd mn !.rz i. sun. i hi was
tr.o signal for th start of th race for
the groom's horse, saddle and gun, and the
contestant, In this race can only be the
male relatives of the groom. As Bonnle
castle had only one male relative, hla
brother, the rac waa easily woo by him.
Then the buggy In which the bride had
been taken to the tepee of her lord, was
drawn out about 200 yards from the crowd
and another gun waa fired. Nearly every
aquaw present waa in this race, as It Is a
sort of free-for-all, and any of th women
are at liberty to run If they desire. Th
first on to th buggy won it
Other race wer pulled off, and th fif
teen pontes given by th groom for th
bride were given away, om to th rela
tive of the bride and some to th whit
pecpla In attendance. The best part of th
ceremony, to the Indians, waa yet to com.
The feast had been prepared during the
other part of th ceremony, ana aii sai
town to eat, picnic fashion. Th brids and
groom sat at th head of th table, on the
ground, aurrounded by their relatives and
those who had taken part In the mar
riage, while all of the other Indian aat
around and. stuffed themselves with th
eatables provided with th $500 put up by
the groom.
According to custom, when two young
people go through this ceremony and then
eat together at th feast It signifies th
end of the wedding, and they are consid
ered wedded. Th groom, having had ail
the say In the matter, la usually ready snd
willing to eat, but the bride, having bad
nothing to do with it, sometimes refuses.
which signifies that she Is unwilling to
wed. Her. refusal makes little difference.
ordinarily, because she must eat some time
and she Is simply starved into a willing,
neaa to accept her husband.
Bonnlecastle will build a home for hla
wife at Pawhuska, and they will live
among the whites at the agency. A little
later they expect to take an extended wed
ding, trip through the east
Th Osag Indians ar th richest tribe
or nation of people In the world, and this
woman la probably the richest female on
the reservation. She has about 130,000 worth
of property, besides her share In the tribe's
general money and her annuity from the
government. ' Boaalecaatls Is worth about
120.000 In hla own name, having, inherited
half of his parents' property. The bride's
father Is dead, and she received his entire
share of the general money and his land.
Everyone, both Indiana and whites, re
gard this match as a good one, and believe
that both parties to It will be happy. A
feature of the ceremony was the refusal
of the contracting parties, to be photo
graphed, and not a camera was allowed
around the Indian camp. St Louis Globe-Democrat
