oLD-TlME INDIAN REMEDIES
Simple Treatmentt All That Was Nec- essary Before Contamination
 l by Whit e People.

Undoubtedly be American In dian in his primo wal state was a fine specimen ofv physical man hood. Dr. E. J. Exempt, who has made careful in}E Eestigation into frontier history, sd ys the Kansas City Star, has foutnd out that be- Fore the Indians were contain mated by the wl4ite race they never were aff1icteH with small pox, measles, tube1culosis, gout, scurvy, insanity, nedyous diseases nor any other of the llls and blood affections which hayd in late years made such terrible dnroads upon the numbers and vitality of the red men of this country.
 The only bodily afliiftions which Dr. kempf reports toithe Medical Record that he found among the aborigiiies were feye1s and dis eases produced by cold, such as plenrisy, pneumonia, rheumatism, dysentery and woundsl from acei- dents orA battle. Naturally the remedies of the IndianA were sim sjyfe'and few in number. When sick an Indian refused all kinds of stimulating stiIliuiiat fig ailments, hlht drank profusely of cold water. In addi- tion to this, in proper ises, the Indians resorted to sweating, purging, vomiting and b bleeding, and finally, when all rfmedies seemed to be intellectual, tine med icine man was called in tol try his amulets and incantations lon the patient.
 These methods of cure are still resorted to among blanket Indi- ans who are removed from the in- ffuences of civilization. But be- fore we smile or condemn these practices we should consider our own history. It was only a few generations ago that our ideas of medicine were almost as crude as . those of the Indians The more in felligent of the white people then. of course, did not resort to magic and incantations, but the concoc- tions they manufactured to cure diseases almost pass belief. kpliver Wendell Holmes, in his

Gardneryille VS.. Reno in Football.

The lGardnerville High School foot
ball team lined up against the inyinci-
BILE II. 5. team of Reno, last Saturday,
at 2:30 P. NJ, on the University football
field. Upon that field has been some
of the spunkiest football contests that
have ever graced a gridiron. Amid the
cheers of hundreds, the ball was put
into play, by the Reno team, they hay
ing won the choice of lkickoff. For q
few mopents it seemed as if Gardner
vile would score an early touchdown,
but the ball went to the Reno team
just in time TO save them from seeing
the ball go over the goal line. Hard
playing went on until time was called
for the first half; and at that time the
ball was almost on the center line.
The ringing cheers from the crowd and
for Gardnerville, showed that our team
was the favorite. When time was
called to begin the second half, the ball
was Gardnerville's, and was put far in
to their territory, and downed, almost
without any gain for Reno. Again
hard playing went on. Bucking the
line seemed to be the favorite play of
both teams. This was because the
teams were 80 evenly matched in
weight. At last the ball was seen to
be moving toward Reno's goal, and
soon was dangerously near their goal
line. One more play, it seemed, would
put it over. But it was that very play
that was to lose for them the day; for
as the ball went down it was fumbled
and lost by Reno. No sooner was it
fumbled, however, than the alert eye
of Gardnerville's star player, Peter
Mortenson, was upon it; and by the
ville's goal, with a good lead and only
one foe to follow. His superior speed
soon increased the distance between
him and his pursuer, and next came
the deafening cheers which proclaimed
victory for Gardnerville. All of the
boys of the Gardneryille team deserve
special mention, for they played clean
and gritty game. Peter Mortenson
made the only touchdown, and made
the longest run ever made on that
field. 1t was no little surprise to the
people of Reno, to ,.see team from
Gardnerville play such splendid
game, and to wrest the honors from
what was supposed to be the champion
High School team of the State.

REPORT OF GRAND JURY.
Genoa, Nevada, Nov. 18th, 1902.
To the Honorable District Court of
the First Judicial District of the State
of Nevada, In and for the County of
Douglas.
We, the Grand Jury of said County,
respectfully report as follows:
We have had under consideration
the matter of the Investigation of the
condition of the various school funds
of our county, and for the purpose we
appointed committee of nine Jurors,
one being selected for each school dis
trict, and this committee after making
a thorough investigation in each dis
trict of the county, has reported to our
body, as follows:
| That in every instance they found
matters in good condition and the
books kept by the clerk showed the
true condition of the funds thereof,
and everything was in as good condi-
tion as could be expected. No errors
or discrepancies were discovered.
We also recommend that the county
defray the expense of the above men,
toned investigating committee.
We have also had under considera-
ton since our last meeting the matter
of the reduction by the County Board
of Equalization of the taxes of Mrs.
Annie Behrman levied by order of said
Board upon certain Real Estate Mort
gage held by said Mrs. Annie Behrman
upon the property of Henry @. Elges
in this county, and which was at the
time in process of foreclosure in this
Honorable Court.
And after the, examination of wit
nesses and after fully considering the
matter, we are unable to find that the
said Board of Equalization was guilty
of any malfeasance in Office whatever,
and we therefore exonorate said Board
of any wrong act or any intention of
permitting any wrong act.
Now, finding no criminal charges
pending against any person and there
being no inmates of the county Jail at
the present time, and no further bust
ness awaiting our action, we respect
fully submit this as our Final Report.
Very Respectfully,
J.C- LARSON, Foreman.
