A True Mule Story.
Mt. Lebanon, La.

MI. LEUAnOIs La.
DEAR JACK: The rescue Of mule
in Bienville Parish, La, from well
sixty feet deep, caused SO much sur
prise and interest here lately that |
send an account to you.
1t is vouched for by some Of the best
citizens of this place. who witnessed
it, and I assure You it is every word
true.
The mule fell hind-feet backward
into an old well sixty feet deep it is
supposed that the edge of the well
caved in with him. All efforts to res
cue him were fruitless, as he was COM
pietely wedged in. Finally, the owner
of the mule, supposing that the poor
creature was severely injured by the
| fall, decided that 1t would be more
merciful to have him killed than to al
| low him to starve To death. Not know
| ing any other way Of dispatching him,
he had cart-load of dirt thrown in
upon him But instead of allowing
himself TO be buried alive, his mule
ship quietly shook off the dirt and
pressed it down with his feet thus
| rising himself several inches above his
| original position Another load was
| thrown in with the same result and
then some one said that if the mule
would continue tramping down the
dirt. it was possible that he might be
extricated, 1t would be no harm to try
any way. Acting on this suggestion
all the farm-hands went TO work fill
ing the well, carefully pouring thu
/ dirt in on the sides, SO as not to huri
the mule. 1t was slow work filling
| that deep well, but a hearty interes
) was awakened by the perseverance
with which the poor animal trampet
down the dirt, and all worked will
