CLIFF DWELLINGS VERY OLD
Head Of Surveying Party Says Those
Of Utah Were Constructed Many
Centuries Ago.

Cliff dwellings more than 1000
years old and buildings of even
greater age have been discovered in
Utah, according to ID. B. Miller. as
sistant supervisor of the general land
ONCE. who has been at the head Of
surveying party in that state for
the last ten months.
The cliff dwellings we found in
Utah undoubtedly are many hundreds
of years DID," said Mr. Miller to q
Washington Poets. reporter. They
were doubtless built by the Monte
yuma Indians. These Indians also
built on the mesa lands and many in
teresting structures were found be-
meath the surface of these lands. In
Utah are three natural bridges that
are more wonderful than the natural
bridge Of Virginia.
"AIl are wider and two considerably
higher than the Virginia bridge. One
Of these bridges has a span of more
than 200 feet and the arch is more
than 100 feet from the ground. It
seems almost to have been made by
man. White persons rarely have
visited these wonders OF nature
The Navajo Indians in Utah are Of
course we'll acquainted with all these
things. The Navajos are essentially
superstitious. They do not mingle
much with the whites. and few Of
them speak English. When one 10

But the terrapin did not go home
and go to bed. Instead, he went to
gather all his relatives and explain
the plan he had made to beat the rab-
bit, and for the rest OF the night the
terrapin's relatives went travelling
through the grass and over the hills
Close to the top Of every hill one ter
rapin stopped and waited. Before day
light the last terrapin had got far
away to the end of the track and sat
down to wait.
Now, every terrapin looked Just
like every other terrapin. and when
the rabbit got close to the top of the
first hill, after he had started on the
race in the morning. he was surprised
to see the terrapin go over the top.
And when the rabbit got there, there
was no terrapin in sight. for as soon
as each terrapin got over the hill he
went to hide in the long grass.
Faster and faster the rabbit ran.
and at the top Of every hill he thought
he saw the terrapin who said he could
beat him still far ahead Before the
rabbit could get back to the camp.

My party went into Utah to survey
the public lands early last April and
remained there until October. During
the entire time not a drop OF rain
fell. and It is curious that all the
time we were in that country
we were followed about by an
old Navajo medicine woman, who
persisted in telling the Indians that
SO long n We stayed there no rain
would come.
I'VE paid no attention to her Of
course. but We had to give her a
thought when on the day we broke
camp, within few hours after we left
the Indian lands a terrific storm
arose that deluged the whole country.

Long time ago, before the Indian
ball players went on the field to play.
the old men used to come to the camp
fire after dark and lift the lid Of the
pot and drop something in to cook.
And while the thing in the pot was
boiling. the little boys would crowd
up close to the old men and listen to
the story Of the great race between
the rabbit and the terrapin.
II is a very old story. and the old
men would tell it this way:
Now. you listen close to what the
pot sings when it begins to smoke.
Can't you hear 1t say Mi, mi. mi, mil
just like a rabbit when he runs SO
fast and SO far that he can't go another
step and has to lie down?
well. in those days. the rabbit
Dragged about how fast he could run
was always Dragging. Once the deer
tried to prove that he could beat the
rabbit, and q fine pair Of horns was
offered by the Great Beaver as a prize
for the winner of the race: but the
rabbit cheated. and the deer got the
horns without running the race.
well. the rabbit Dragged SO much
about how fast he could run that he
made all the animals tired. And at
last the terrapin. who never did have
much to say, got up from his seat and
said that he could beat the rabbit
running. That made the rabbit laugh
SO hard that finally he had to roll over
on the ground. and all he could say
was mi, mi, mi. mi!'-just like the
sound the pot is making now.
80 the animals all sat down with
their heads close together and lis
tened while the rabbit and the terra
pin fixed up the plan for the race next
day.
They fixed 1t to run far across the
hills. then turn and run back to the
camp. And the rabbit laughed as he
went to bed in his house in the broom
grass down by the river. (Now, can
you hear how the thing in the pot is
chuckling?)
