DESERT SIGNPOSTS.
Rude Rock Heaps by Which Indians
Located Running Water.

In travelling over the plains of west
ern Texas, writes n contributor, have
now and then come on two little iso-
lated heaps OF rock that at first glance
| seemed not at all remarkable After
a time, noticed that one heap was
generally about three feet high. and
the other about a foot lower. The two
were always within few feet of each
other. and usually on an elevation or
plateau that had view Of the country
for five miles or more
The rocks were roughly heaped to-
gether, as II left by children at play.
i 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 l learned the actual
significance of these rock heaps from
an 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 lost-thanks
to these rude rock heaps.
1 watched the old fellow crouch down
behind the taller heap, sight over the
low one. and mark the farthest OBJ
5ect in a straight line, which in this
case was a clump of bushes on the
horizon. We rode toward these bushes
and found-not water. as 1 had ex-
pected. but two other heaps Of rocks.
Sighting as before. and taking a rock
faced cliff toward the southwest as a
goal, we rode two miles farther, and
there. trickling out from beneath the
cliffs rocky brow. was a spring of
fresh. clear water.
The old Indian said that whenever a
band Of Indians came upon new
spring. they built these rock heaps
along their trail; since then l 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 watercourse.-
