Mistaken for a Mystic
Two cowboys came across an Indian man lying face down in the road with his ear pressed to the ground.
"See that man? He looks like a mystic," one said.
"Yes, he must be listening. Mystics can detect sounds from miles away."
Just then, the man opened his eyes slightly and whispered, "A covered wagon, about two miles away, drawn by two horses—one brown, one white. A man and a woman aboard..."
The first cowboy turned to his friend in admiration. "Amazing! He can tell all that just by listening—even the colors!"
The 'mystic's' lips moved again. The cowboys strained to hear his pronouncement:
"...ran over me about half an hour ago."
