Indian Village
Flooded by River

San Bernardino, Cal, June 10.-The
government levees protecting the Mojave
reservation from the Colorado river
broke late yesterday. according to dis
patch from Needles. The floods swept
through village and the Indians were
forced to flee for their lives. Livestock
left behind was drowned.
The crest of the flood apparently has
passed Needles but has made the situa-
ton there critical, as it caused the cur
rent to shift and eat into the banks. The
river last night stood at % feet at Top
ock. the highest stage ever recorded
there. IA Beale on the Santa Fe river
six miles below Needles, the river was
level with the top of the dixie and was
flooding houses.

about diminished vitality.
They don't stop to think that vitali-

that little understood something on

Diminished vitality is early indicated
