SEVEN-SCORE OF YEARS. The Extreme Ohl Age of Some California Indian*. The early inhabitants of Southern California, according to the statement of II. II. Bancroft and other reports, were found to be living in Spartan con ditions us to temperance and training, and in u highly moral condition, in con sequence of which they had uncommon physical endurance and contempt for luxury. This training in abstinence and hardship, with temperance in diet, combined with the climate to produce the astonishing longevity to be found here, says Charles Dudley Warner in Harper’a Magazine. Contrary to the customs of most other tribes of Indians, their aged were the care of the com munity. Dr. W. A Winder, of San Diego, is quoted as saying that in a visit to El Cajon valley some thirty years ago he was taken to a house in which the aged persons were cared for. There were half a dozen who had reached an extreme age. Some were unable to move, their bony frames be ing seemingly anchylosed. They were old, wrinkled and blear-eyed; their skin was hanging in leathery folds about their withered limbs: some had hair as white as snow, and had seen some seven-score of years; others, still able to crawl, but so aged as to lx? unable to stand, went slow ly about on their hands and knees, their limbs being atten uated and withered. The organs of special sense had in many nearly lost all activity some generations back. Some had lost the use of their limbs for more than a decade or a generation; but the organs of life and the “great sym pathetic” still kept up their automatic functions, not recognizing the fact, and surprisingly indifferent to it, that the rest of the body had ceased to be of any use a generation or more in the past. Dr. Palmer has a photograph (which I have seen) of a squaw whom he esti mates to be one hundred and twenty- six years old. When he visited her he saw her put six watermelons in a blanket, tic it up, and carry it on her back for two miles. He is familiar with Indian customs and history, and a care ful cross-examination convinced him him that her information of old cus toms was not obtained by tradition. She was conversant with tribal habits she had seen practiced, such as the cre mation of the dead, which the mission fathers had compelled the Indians to re linquish. She had seen the Indians punished by the fathers with floggings for persisting in the practice of crema tion. At the mission of San Tomas, in Low er California, is still living an Indian (a photograph of whom Dr. Rcmondino shows), bent and wrinkled, whose age is computed at one hundred and forty years. Although blind and naked he is still active, and daily goes down the beach and along the beds of the creeks in ; »arch of driftwood, making it his daily task to gather and carry to camp a fag> t of wood.
