More of the Mule.
Dyersbnrg (Tenn.) Gazette.

Dyersbnrg (Tenn.) Gazette.
Mules are chiefly found in the South
and West. They have been more
abused than Judas Iscariot. A boy
who would not throw a stone at q
mule when he gets chance would be
considered by his parents as too mean
to raise. The mule is a. good worker,
but can not be depended upon. He
is liable to strike, and when he strikes
human calculations fails to find any
rule by which to reckon when he will
go to work again. 1t is useless to
pound, for he will stand more beating
than q sitting-room carpet. He has
been known to stand eleven days in
one spot, apparently thinking about
something, and start again as though
nothing had happened.
To fully appreciate the mule one
should listen to his voice. You never
can really know whether you like a
mule or not till you hear him sing.

manga during the war. The wagon
train was IN front. The mules were

as pressed him hard. The music,
or programme, opened with a sopra-
no solo and then swung into duet,
and then pranced off into trio, fol-
lowed up by quartet and ending
with a full chorus OF the whole army
train. Ididn't hear the whole thing,
for when l came to the regimental

me powerful restoratives. and l heard

Juggling for the Presidenc.

Washington Post: Shortly before
l o'clock one afternoon Hermann,
the magician, sauntered up to the
White House to call upon the presi-
dent. A large crowd was waiting in
the east room, but the president
stopped in the corridor to receive his
visitor. There was a cordial hand
shaking and a few words of CONVERSE
ton, when the man OF many tricks
took out OF his pocket an innocent
looking coin. It was apparently gold,
and was so curiously marked that it
could easily be remem bered.
..'Quite q pretty gold piece, Mr. Pres
ident," said the magician, and the
president assented. '.Now look at
it." said Hermann, and he deity
turned it in his hand. It had turned
to silver. Another turn or two and
gold coin was resting in his hand
again. Then he pulled ring from his
pocket and asked the president to
hold up his finger that he might place
it upon it. The president did so, and
10! the ring had disappeared. The im-
promptu entertainment continued for
few minutes, and the president sug-
gested that it might be pleasant idea
to have Mr.. Hermann give soiree
at the White house some evening.

the following, to re-establish circula-

With its quiet group at home,

Head. or chat in voices low,
Suddenly you lift your eyes
With an earnest look, and wise;

Tell me less, or tell me more.
Like q picture in . book,
Pure and peaceful is your look,
Quietly you walk your ways;

Neither tears nor fierce delights,
Feverish days nor tossing nights,
Any troubloas dreams confess
Tell me more. or tell me less.
Swift the weeks are ON the wing;
Years are brief, and love q thing
Blooming, fading, like a flower;
Wake and seize the little hour.

Quick! Iwait! And who can tell

A law should be passed BY the comm

A law should be passed by the coming
legislature, giving special protection to
the beaver. This is an animal, harmless
to the farmer and of great value to the
owner Of stock. It dams rivers, render
ing them available for watering stock,
when, il it were not for them, the cattle
would have difficulty in getting enough
to drink. The Heart river is damned iii
several places BY these interesting and
industrious little animals and it is only
from spirit Of wanton slaughter that
they are killed. Unfortunately there
are SO many people in this country who
never see head without wanting to hit
lit, and they never see an animal that can
move without wanting to shoot. Many
beavers that would, if they had a chance,
live lives Of usefulness, have their ca
reers cut short as q result Of this slaugh-
tering spirit. Win not the Legislature

The Chicago live stock exchange and
the National cattle growers association
of America, have each issued series of
resolutions condemnatory Of the recent
raise in rates adopted by the east-5ound
pool from Chicago. 1t appears that on
the 1st. of last March the rates were
raised $40 per car on live cattle, $43 per
car on dressed beef, $40 per car on live
sheep and $50 per car OH dressed sheep.
These resolutions are addressed to the
live stock papers, to state legislatures
and to Congress, in the hope that speedy
legislation would relieve live stock inter-
ests from this additional incubus which
is pressing the profit out of the business.
No valid claim has yet been set up by the
railroads that former rates were not
profitable and the increase cannot but be
regarded as exorbitant.

Governor Pierce has been peculiarly
fortunate and an exception to all pre-

Horses aud Drivers.

very many years ago 1 made up my
mind That when there is a quarrel be-
tween q man and a horse, In nine cases
out Of ten the man is in the wrong.
Continued observation has only served
to confirm this belief. The radical error
into which drivers fall is the belief that
the horse knows perfectly what is want
ed OF him, and will do lit. Then the
driver proceeds to show that he is the
master. and in the vast majority Of cases
the horse has mot the slightest idea why
he is SO treRted. For horse to 3nnder-s
stand instantly what his driver desires.
there must exist a pleasant feeling be-
tween them. The horse must feel q con-
fidence in his driver. With ono driver a
horse will show himself fearless of 10!
comotives, and with another he viii;
dread them. One man will drive q lorl,sta
ffton miles with no more fatigue to the
animal tlian another driver will produce
by driving him only ten. Nothing tends
moro to cruelty to animals than COW :.
ardice. The man who has lurking
fear of his beast is tile man who treats
him the moro harshiy. The man who
is afraid Of no horse, Is just tie man
who treats him kindly. He is perfectly
aware that there is always danger with
horses; but he also knows that this does;
not depend upon3 the horse, but mostly
comes from some extraneons sources. tho

and companion, ready 70 do his whols
duty. So there springs up d pleasant
feeling on both sides, the horse Is en-
courage.ls and cheerful. and gets through
with his work easily and we'll. Such s
driver gets vastly more from his horses
than does the cruel one. They conas ID ID
