A Tough Mule.

The mule has the reputation of being
avefy tough sninsl and of being able
TO stand very great strain when called
upon. An accident that befell mule
in q colliery in Heckscherville Valley, a
few days ago, is liable to strengthen
this belief. The mule fell distance of
forty yards down counter-chute. The
animal became wedged in tightly and
in such q manner that il wasn't safe to
approach it, as its hind legs were free.
The mule was valuable, and it was de-
termined to rescue it il possible. A der
rick was rugged and slip moose was
thrown over the animals hind legs.
The men at the derrick. then began
hosting. As soon IS the mule felt the
strain it kicked savagely.. Every time it
kicked it was hoisted about two feet,
and before it could slip back the slack
was quickly taken up, when another
pull was taken. Between the derrick
and MULE, kicking powers the animal
was finally hoisted to place of safety.
The next day the animal was attending
to business as usual, apparently nothing
the worse from its experience. A horse
under the same circumstances would
have been ruined. if not pulled apart

He is Out sos.

A very green youth, named j. b Lin
ton, came up from Cynthiana. Ky, the
first of this week to indulge in the old
time pleasure Of horse trading. He
brought good nag with him from the
Blue Grass regions, which he offered to
sell in the Fifth street stables for $3.50.
Several of the sharks who infest the
neighborhOod, noticing the fresh and
yerdant appearance of Linton. tried the
old game on him with remarkable sue
cess. They offered to trade black
mare for his horse; just as tho bargain
ing was going on another of the gang
stepped up and said: That's q hne-
looking mare, that black there; I'll give
you SlS5 for her." He was refused,
ami then going into ecstacies of admira-
ton. he offered $500 for the mare. Mean
while the supplemented Kentuckian,
aghast at the wonderful trade that he
was missing. hurriedly offered to give his
own horse and so to boot for the black
mare. His offer, after some seeming
reluctance. was accepted, the mare being
warranted to he sound in body and wind
Linton had hardly obtained possession
of mis- new piece of horse-hesh when he
discovered that she was nothing but
broken-down hack; then he started out
to lind the man who was so eager to
give two hundred dollars for the mare.
But he was not to be found. Coming.
upon the gang who had sold him the
animal, they eoolly said that the beast
was worth about twenty-five dollars.
which sum they would give Tor it. Be-
coming indignant, he threatened TO ex-
pose them. whereupon they agreed to
let him have one hundred and fifteen
dollars il he would sign a receipt in quit
lance. This he refused to do, saying he
was not able to write, but they COM
PEELED him to make his mark on the re-
ceipt before they would let him have the
money. The green youth from Ken

horses, but found he could not. is ont

this little transaction. and now he seeks

The INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN revolt In
Pennsylvania has now assumed the proper
tions Of d formidable party movement which
all the political power of Senator Cameron
cannot repress, and full State ticket will
be nominated at the convention to be held
in Philadelphia this week. The Wolf move
ment Of last year cost the regular Republi-
can ticket nearly 90, 900 votes, bur the elec-
ton being an unimportant one the stupid
apathy OF the Democrats allowed the State
to go by default. This year, however,
the Pennsylvania Democrats are fully alive
to the situation, and will make campaign
that will certainly result in the success of
their ticket. A Democratic candidate for
Governor like Robert G. Pattison of fPhiladel-
phia, OF Robert e. Monaghan of West
Chester, would sweep the State this year,
even If there was no independent Republi-
can movement to assure success, so anxious
are the people to destroy the odious Cameron
dynasty that has so long fettered free politi-
cal sentiment in that State.

Now THAT THE hot weather is near at
hand the speedy adjournment of Congress
may be hoped for. If cool, pleasant weather
prevailed all the year round Congress would
keep in continual session, but when the
average statesman has to sit in his shirt
sleeves in the illy-yentilated halls of Con
gress and vigorously cool himself with
paim-leaf fan, he begins to sigh for the
comforts of home life, and settles down to
the performance of the necessary work in
order to get away. If the mercury could
have been kept playing around the nineties
since the first of February, Congress would
have adjourned weeks ago.

MIR. CARPENTER says in the event of his
election to the position of Mayor of this city
he will " faithfully strive to apply to official
affairs those same principles and methods
(which alone secure success in business
life." As these principles secured for Mr..
Carpenter ample success in business life, the
people can safely assume that he will apply
them to his official conduct, and, therefore,
make one of the most popular and successful
mayors the city ever had. No man can do
violence to his personal or political convic-
tions by voting for Mr.. Carpenter for Mayor.

1T WAS REALLY amusing to see the efforts
the Republicans made at some of the lower
wards, on Saturday afternoon, to swell their
vote at the nomination. Boys were allowed
to vote without question, and in the Tenth
ward, where the Democratic City Council
nomination was in progress at the same
time, the Democrats were urged to come
over to the Republican polls and vote ''just
"for fun, you know" but they invariably
declined. Mr.. Hickey, the highest unsuc-
cessful competitor for coroner, should in
vestigate this matter, as he might thereby
account for the meagre majority of 50 by
which he was beaten.

DIR. Wales Reply.

A significant feature of DR.. Wales reply
to the committee of the Workingmen's Re
form Association is his answer to the first
question, to the effect that he does " not in
tend to be connected with or controlled by
any party clique or ring, new or old"
Apparently this is a complete disclaimer
ofany connection with the odious City
Ring" and declaration of personal In
dependence on the part of the doctor in case
he should be elected Mayor. If his utter
ance on this point is to be accepted literally,
the Ring" men can no more expect to be
the recipients of Mayoralty favors in the
event Of his election than if Mr.. Lichten-
stein had been nominated in place of DIR.
Vvhruc.
1t must not be forgotten, however, that in
his position as candidate DIR. Wales was the
avowed representative of the "City Ring, /"
and his success was the substantial triumph
Of that obnoxious element of the party. He
at first declined to answer the inquiries of
the Reform Associations committee, and
delayed his reply several days beyond the
appointed limit. We do not charge that he
took advantage of this delay to have a con-
ference with the Stalwart leaders, but as
they accept his utterances with perfect
eomposure, and do not appear to be con-
cerned in the least at the abrupt
manner in which he gives them
the ''cut direct" it is safe
to assume that they still consider him as
much their candidate and representative as
they did before the polls closed on the day of
the nomination. They know, he knows and
the people know that without the support of
the ''Ring" Dr. Wales would not have the
shadow of chance at the city election,
while it is a selfevident fact that the ''Ring"
men will not support candidates whose cleo
tion will completely cut them out of any
share in the spoils of victory.
1t is reasonable to infer, therefore, that in
spite of his disclaimer Dr. Wales is still the
candidate and representative of the old
"City Ring"
