LAST OF HIS RACE,
AND HE IN THE JUG

Oroville, Cal, Sept. 2.-Prof. T.
P. Waterman, instructor in anthro-
pology at the University of Califor-
mia, has identified the Indian con-
fined in the county jail here as a
member of the Southern Yano, or
Deer Creek tribe, and the last of his
race.
The Indian is the only man in ex-
istence who speaks the tongue of his
tribe, but Waterman managed to
make himself understood by talking
in the language of the Northern
Yanos, despite the fact that the two
languages are quite widely separat-
ed.
Waterman hopes, through this
man, to learn something of the Ian
guage, customs and civilization of
the practically extinct tribe.
