VALLEY MAY PROVE MANY THINGS
I
IMS' !• S’ Cal.- Nov.. 7— Amateur archeologists of this
v-ion are emlevoring to interest professional scientist
'•ir.* - as', in the epigraphs which abound on the rocks oi
ilwir.d Valiev, not far l'roi \ this citv, and which are he
•eve 1 i he as old, if not older, than the hieroglyphics <!
;.r!i -st Egypt, to which they hear a strange resemblance
• 1 -hexed by many that the strange markings coo
he means by which ancient tribes marked tin
'■ourcc water supply for the benefit of those of thou
nil.liter who lived roving lives.
Th *se hieroglyphics have never been deciphered,
'll--ugh they are matters of record in the leading museum
>f the ■ ountrv. it is said. The Indian tribe now living ir
vie uiix declares they are not the work of the Indians
\meriea and that they antedate all aborignol
lore.
So a- \\ ho have examined the strange markings in tin
i adders ;ay the hieroglyphics closely resembk
• i c o e-irliest Egypt and may replace the matter as t! <
first w ’.ten language of humanity.
Tiv v are found always in the vicinity of water sup
i>!:. -s. i same markings discovered near Bishop appear
•m mck extending through the Canadian border
ow n t! -.nigh Washington. Oregon and California, to th;
Mexie * line and beyond. This fact, it is argued, indicate,
that pr historic tribes marked a highway for their mi
rratin'! : lembei-s or for their armies, giving specific di
red ions as to the best water supplies along the way.

NEW ARMY SLANG.
’
( NY, SA N ! )IEGO, Calif., Nov., 7- Two
new bits of army slang have come into use here. The lat- \
['si one is ‘ricimchot officer". A “riehochet officer” has
nothing to clo with the artillery range, it was explained, j
neither does he attempt to restrain glancing rifle bullets
n the small anus traget ranges. He merely “riehochet?”
from one job to another within the camp, “pinch hitting’
wherever tile need for officers may exceed the supply, or
serving in such temporary organizations as the casual
•omnany 01 recruit receiving battalion.
The other term is “Pistol Pete" and it is applied to.
any “hardi-oiled guy" who is unapproachable, belligerent,!
i martinet or unduly strict with his men.
FORTY SEVEN UTAH TOWNS ARE TO
HAVE THEIR NAME ( HANGED SOON.
_ I
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. Nov., 7- There are 47
Utah towns whose names are neither duplicated or tri
plicated. became known here recently when the secretary
i f State. Harden Bennion, announced official action
would soon be taken to give every Utah town an indivi
dual name. There are four towns named central and three
towns named King.
The similarity of names has caused much confusion,
according to Mr Bennion, who says this changing of the
names of the towns will have to be accomplished through
appeal and persuasion.
