IL The subject is Il matter of conjec-

are advanced. All admit that such ire

Rude Rock Heaps by Which indiana

LOCATED mummy WdS0Vs
In travelling over the plains Of west
ern Texas, writes contributor, | have
now and then come on two little isO-
lated heaps OF rock that ut first glance
seemed not ut all remarkable. After
a time. | noticed that one heap was
generally about three feet high. and
the other about Il foot lower. The two
were always within u few feet Of each
other. and usually on an elevation Of
plateau that had view Of the country
for five miles or more.
The rocks were roughly heaped to-
gether. us II left by children at play
| sometimes wondered II they could
be the ruins of an ancient stone build
ing; but that was improbable. for there
was scarcely another stone In sight
Years later | learned the actual
significance Of these rock heaps from
m old Indian whose mind was stored
with all the legends and customs and
deeds Of his people. According to him.
when the Great Spirit tapped up the
mighty rivers Of the plains. he left
springs and water basins here and
there for the antelope and the Indian.
These the antelope easily found BY
scent. but the Indian had to search
long and anxiOusly for them. Once
found. they were seldom iOst-thanks
to these rude rock heaps.
I watched the old fellow crouch down
behind the taller heap. sight over the
low one. and mark the farthest OBJ
ject in straight line. which In this
ease was n clump Of bushes on the
horizon. We rode toward these bushes
and fOund-nOt water. as ] had ex-
pected. but two other heaps Of rocks.
Sighting as before. and taking a rock
faced cliff toward the southwest us
goal, we rode two miles farther. ana
there. trickling out from beneath the
cliffs rocky brow. was spring Of
fresh. clear water.
The old Indian said that whenever
band of Indians came upon new
spring. they built these rock heaps
along their trail; since then have fol-
lowed some half dozen of these rude
signposts. and found them to lead
either to water. or to places that show
ed traces of former watercoErse.-

u Likewise Froved It's Quality TO the
eusnos Aires Buyers.
In Buenos Aires Il few years ago an
American salesman Of plows wished
to demonstrate to a local customer the
superiority Of his goods over that Of
q German competitor The American
consul arranged for the test.
The German plOws proved to be al.
most exact duplicates Of the American
implement In design and rather better
In finish. Wasting no time In explana-
ton. the American salesman called
over II powerful peon and ordered him
to swing with all his strength with a
ten pound sledge upon the share OF
one Of the American pIows.
The husky Basque spat upon his

ed upon one Of the German imple-

shattered. the pieces being scattered
about the door like 30 much broken
crockery. Thinking that possibly the
faultiness Of this share had been an
accident Of construction. perhaps Of
overtempering. the dealer requested
the peon to swing upon the second
sample. This blow demonstrated that
the German implements were not even
consistent In their effectiveness. for
this share doubled up under the blow
and folded lovingly In around the
hammer like flower going to sleep

Big Spot Houses-Strong

NEW YORK, Jan. 24-Although
prices were 4 to 10 points lower than
Fridays final, the undertone was steady
at the opening of the cotton market to-
day. Leading spot interests were cred
tied with being long on cotton in Liver
pool and selling in that market, which
explained the weakness there, but the
continued principal buyers here, taking
chiefly May and July contracts. The
selling was not confined to any partic-
llar group here.
Sentiment is running quite bearish.
Wall street and the ring were about the
leading sellers. However, at the end of
half an hour part of the early decline
had been recovered.
During the last hour of trading a
strong demand sprung up, coming from
the big spot houses, which promoted a
wave of short covering The buying was
aggressive and prices rallied about 10
points from the early low Offerings
were light. After this covering was
completed the market was small, with
Nrices steady at the advance.
Spot advices from the Southern belt
continue to be of a bullish character
and Southern spot brokers are speaking
most enthusiastically of the situation and
say they are doing big business-about
the best in their experience-and that
the Carolina mills are bidding agrees
lively for white cotton, which Is said to
be dwindlfng away to a very small

At the close the market was steady
with prices at net advance of l to 4
points from the closing quotations of
