An Energetic Dramatic Mule.

At one of the theaters ia a town of Nevada
the play of the Forty Thieves was lately
presented, but In rather meagre manner, as
may be inferred from the lack of abundant
scenery and properties in the far west When
Ali Baba had seen the thieves enter and QUIT
the cave he went 70 the wings and brought
In mule, which, having taken grave offense
at something. awaited his opportunity for
revenge. No sooner had Ali come out of the
cave with his bags of wealth and attempted
to put them on the back of the beast than
he began his part of the performance. He
let fly with his heels; kicked the shavings
tthe supposed riches) out OF the bags; kicked
down the cavern; kicked down a whole for
est; kicked dowA the wings; kicked the end
Of the bsss viol, leaning sgaIust the age, to
pieces; smashed the footlights, and finally
doubled mp "Ali'' by planting both feet in
the pit OF his stomach. TIE mule finally
cleared the stage and set the audience into a
great roar, the miners laying wsgers that be
could out kick any mule in the state. The
qua6ruped continued kicking as if he were
hung on a pivot, and a rope was fastened
around him and he was dragged off by the
united strength of the company The Ne
yadans want to give the mule benefit.

Wages AM tae Cost Of Living.
Scientific American. /

Comparing the present market prices of
all the articles OF necessity and luxury that
go to make up the cost of living. with the
prices that obtained when wages were higher,
IL will be seen that wages have fully held
their own. And il men will make the same
comparison with regard TO mems earnings
and purchases, twenty, fifty, hundred years
ago. they will see that-thsnks TO cheaper
and more rapid means of production and
carriage through mechanical invention
in every element Of living, in housing.
clothing, food. luxuries and the rest. the
workingman of to day has infinite advantage
over his father, grandfather or great grand
father. And he enjoys multitude of priv.
ileges and benefits, in stable government
personal liberty and protection, gratuitous
education for his children, free medical
attendance, pure water, lighted streets, and
other untaxed advantages which his aucss-
tors never dreamed of or hoped for. His
wages are higher and his money will buy
more, dollar for dollar, than his fathers
would.
We do not say that the real as well as the
relative cost OF living is not advanced by
every step forward in civilization. For ten
days work an East India islander, according
to Wallace, can manufacture or earn sago
cakes enough to last him q year; and less La.
Dor will keep him supplied with the limited
clothing he needs. A man needs more
clothing here, and a greater variety of food !;
yet when ii comes to the absolute necessities
OF men-the minimum cost of living-a very
small portion of Q mans yearly wages win
keep him alive and comfortable. Thoreau

built him shanty in Walden woods and
lived year in it at q total cost of twenty
seven dollars, and never approached either
squalor or starvation. The experiment is OF
value only in that il proves 1t possible for
man to get as much bare living here for
gwen amount of labor as Polynesian can.
If one man wants more-and very uroperIv
most men do want more-one must work for
it; and our civilization happily offers az
once more opportunity for labor, and inf
nitely more TO be had for the proceeds of
such labor, than have been obtainable Ia any
other land, under any other social or indus

there was ever a time when industry and

Washington STAR
About three weeks ago Mary Minor q col
ored Toman residing al the corner Of Twelfth
and + streets, southeast complained of being
mighty poorly" and badly griped" and
there vass curious movement observed about
her stomach. One or two physicians were
called in, and being of the opinion that the
movements in her stomach were occssioned
by tapeworm, treated her for It. But she
and her friends could not be brought to be-
heYe that this was the cause anu two colored
"voudoo" doctors were called in.
After diagnosis one gave the opinion
thai her stomach is the home of a big tree
frog, and the other that it is inhabited by a
black snake and two ground hogs-both
agreeing that the anImsls had been con-
jured into her by some enemy. One of the
voudooists has proved to the satisfaction of
the family and many of the superstitious
people in that section that snch is the case
by finding two "conjure" bottles under the
house containing some of the patients hair,
q piece OF her calico dress and some grave
yard dirt"
1t is CLAIMED by the present attending YOU
doc doctor that he has broken the spell and
that she won't be troubled any more after
she succeeds by medicine in dissolving the
'varmints," so that they can be naturally
elected. This case excites great interest
among the colOred people of that section,
and numbers OF people visit the patient from
time TO time to get an opportunity to feel
the movements of the "vaTnints," but there
is among them, as there is with the doc
tors" q diversity OF opinion as to whether
they feel the movements of the hind legs of
srog or the gyrations OF black snake and
his two attendant groundEogS

Railroad Matters.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 9.-Ben W. Lewis, presi
dent of the st. Louis, Kansas City and North
ern Railway, was interviewed this evening
regarding the reported consolidation of that
railroad with the Chicago and Alton Rail-
rose, and stated that be knows nothing of
such fcheme, and that he does not believe
it all probable. Notwithstanding this other
parties here insist upon il, that the consoli-
dation of the roads is only question of
short time. A meeting Of represen tatives of
railroads running east from here was held
this afternoon, and after considerable dis
cussion they decided to bury the hatchet,
and from and after tomorrow morning pas
senger fare will be restored to the former
full rates.

- Think Again."

Queen Victoria was not 20 years of age
when she assembled the throne Coming
into possession of power, with a heart fresh,
tender and pure, and with ali her instincts
inclined TO mercy, Te may be sure that she
found many things that tried her strength
of resolution 20 tire utmost On a bright
beautiful morning the young queen was
waited upon at her palace of Windsor by the
Duke of Wellington. VITO had brought from
London various pspers requiring her sigma
ture 10 render them operative. One Of them
was sentence of court martial pronounced
against a soldier of the line-that he be shot
dead. The queen looked upon the paper
and then looked upon The wondrous beau
ties that nature had spread 10 her view.
What has this man Gone?' she asked
The duke looked at the paper and replied:
"Ah, my royal mistress, that Ban, / feafXke
incorrigfble. he has deserted three times.
And can you not say something in his
behalf. my lordP'
Wellington shook bis head.
"Oh, think again, pray your
Seeing that her majesty was so deeply
moved, and feeling sure she would not have
the man shot in any event, he finally con-
fessed that the man was brave, gallant, and
really good soldier
But" he added, think OF the influeDcep'
"Intiuencew cried Victoria, her eyes flash
ing and her bosom heaving with strong emo
tion. let it be ours To WELD influence /
will try mercy in this mans case; and / charge
you, your grace, to let me know the result
good soldier, you said. Oh, thank you
for that! And you may tell him that your
good words saved him."
Then she took the paper and wrote with
bold firm hand, across the dark page the
bright, saving word-"Pardonedi"
The duke was fond of telling the story,
and he was willing also to conf IS that the
giving OF that paper to the pardoned soldier
gave him far more Joy than he could have
experlenced from the taking OF a city.

According to the Indianapolis Journal, the
last murder In that county was the four
teentb since Governor Williams Inaugura-
ton. By his readiness to pardon he has un-
9uestionably contributed to a carnival OF
crime, but 10 charge the recent murders
to the Communication of Gill
looIys ana Greenley's sentences is
absurd aud childish. Who believes
the ignorant drunken HuDtsinger drove his
knife into Gray because OF the governors
disposition to commute a sentence of death?
Or that Tate shot Love, trusting in the same
generous bosom? Or that Guejig, weakened
by fits, inflamed by passion, and freszied
with drink, riddled his victim into death,
relying on gubernatorial mercy? 0c that
the brutal, Iuurderous Merrick poisoned and
lacersted his wife, expecting imprisonment
instead of death, with an early
pardon? Who believes they gave the
governors probable action single
thought Had Gillooly and Greenley hung
these murders must have occurred The
conditions were ripe. Tate had his pistol,
HuntslDger his knife, Merrick bis poison,
Guetig his revolver, and all the disposition
and opportunity. Plainly, If an executive
were TO be a preventive, the hanging of
Beavers ought to have sufficed. Or is it the
theory that each county must hang q man?

CONVICTION.


CovNGToN, Ind, Dec. 9-At about II
O'Clock too day row occurred in the saloon
of Ridge Bros. between George Cary, gam
bier, and w. N. Ridge, one of the proprietors,
during which Cary was shot in the
abdomen by Ridge. At present
it is difficult to tell what will be
the result of the wound. The ball entered
at the right, near the hip bone, and ranged
down and to the left. The chances for his
recovery are very slight. As Carey is of a
very quarrelsome disposition, especially
when drinking. and has frequently during
the past year been engaged in fights and
brawls, bis case excites but little sympathy.
Ridge claims to have done the shooting in
self defense
