We have most interesting acquain-

among dogs, says letter from New
Mexico. but we had to come to Santa
Fe to meet with the charming little
burro. This delightful little creature
is quite the philosopher among ami
mails. On meeting you he eyes you
over thoughtfully, seems to weigh your
character; If you are found wanting
he ceases to notice you with Indian
stoicism or dismisses you with an i'm
patient toss OF his head If, however.
you meet his approval he sometimes
tips you a merry wink, gives you a
meaning look, and says unutterable
things with his ears. Doubtless he
could speak If he would. but being a
philosopher and somewhat given to
despising the human animal, he has
devined the secret of the pPverb that:
speech Is silvern. but silence is gold
en-" He will stand with pathetic or
contemptuous patience TO be laden, so
deeply overladen that between burro
and burden only his expressive eyes
and ears and the thin wisp of q tail
are apparent at either end. We ara
told that when he understands that
his way lies toward the mesas. among
green pastures. he ambles on with fair
speed, but arrived there not ali the
kings horses, not all the kings men
can make him return to the city. He
rolls and kicks and laughs to scorn his
driver. who usually bows to necessity
and leaves the creature to wander at
his own sweet will until. satisfied with
mere material pleasures, he again re-
turns to the haunts of men to study
minds and morals.
