Indians Showed Medical Skill.

In the midst of remarkable advance
of science in emdicine and surgery
throughout the educated world, we still
are frequently reminded OF the great
skill our pioneer ancestors in the ONO
country found at the command OF In
dams. handed down to them through
countless generations of the aborigines
of the Americans in the pharmacopoeia
Of their traditions; of their treatment
of numerous ailments, to the stanch-
of the ebbing currents OF life; OF use OF
rare medicaments in binding torn limbs
and in the saving OF both limb and
life.
An example Of such skill was handed
down by the distinguished Oliver M.
Spencer who, when child Of II years,
was a captive in the hands of Indians
at one of their villages at the coslfiu-
ence of the Auglaize with the Maumee.
After journey OF 1870 miles, mostly on
his bare feet, the child was left in care
Of the mother of one Of his captors,
who was known as 1.-THE White Lion. 7
This mother was called Cooh-eoo-cheeh,
and she certainly could make good
medicine She received young Oliver
when he was in a truly pitiable condi.
ton. He was emaciated and worn and
bruised his body having been lacerated
and his feet swollen TO twice their nor
NAL size, while his toes were worn al
most to the bone.
After bathing young Oliver thorough
lv in hot water, Cooh-coo -cheeh laid
him on blanket in the hot July sun for
four hours, until his back was com
plete blister. Meanwhile she was stew
in a decoctioD OF red oak and wild
cherry banks and dewberry roots. This
was given to him to drink frequently;
and in il his feet were occasionally
soaked during several days. A result
Of this treatment was complete restora-
tioh to health and strength.
This child's remarkable adventures
between this place and Detroit and
elsewhere commenced in 1892, when
there was war with the Indians. The
Spencers were prominent in Columbia
life and the capture of the lad had
produced CONSERVATION. II took place
in the midst OF walk, when without
his shoes, as it happened, he was re-
turning from a Fourth of July cele-
bration at Fort Washington.
His parents and friends were una
ware Of his childish resolve to return
TO his home, but neightbors who knew
him were aware of his homeward trip;
a few of them going in canoes and sew
eral afoot. His shoes were in one of
the canoes. The child and white man
were taken The latter was killed and
scalped in the boys presence.
The two Indians and their little
captive made haste up the hills, and
continued north by trails the Indians
knew, travelling hurriedly day after
day until they reached the Indian vii
lage mentioned above
Here the boy was held eight months,
Twin with these natives and having
companionship with the women and
children. Generally, he was well treat
ed. although once in a while submit
ted to discipline by the rod. He grew
to like few OF the people, particular
lv the woman who had so kindly cared
for him when he was suffering. he
rapidly grew healthy, and strong
enough to carry wood and water for
the camp and TO learn the games OF
the Indian children. He became an ex-
pert with bow and arrow. He greatly

to Blumer's place at tackle. Hardin. who
is recovering rapidly from the operation
which he underwent in September. is be-

that he can handle the tackle position
in satisfactory manner.
Fulbright. whose playing was fes-

EMPORIA COLLEGE LOSES
MASCOT AND CANE

The College Of Emporia which has
held the Kansas football championship
two successive years has lost its widely
known mascot and along with him its
luck. The little black spaniel known as
Puck has been prominent figure at all
the schools athletic events for over two
years, and the students had come to re-
gard him as their lucky piece" He
disappeared few days ago and the next
lay the team lest a game for the frs,
ime in fifteen successive encounters.
The whole school is backing a movement
with money and force which aims to re.
cover the lost dog. A band of night
faiders entered and searched all the fra.
;ernity and sorority houses Of a neigh.
boring school in an attempt to find him.
Once before when the dog disappeared
the school enlisted the aid Of the coun.
~ officers after being worsied in a mob
hight to recapture Puck.
