\ knowing Mule.

A farmer OF Williamsbridge on the
northern outskirts of New York City,
blows his land with horse and u mule
harnessed together. The mule has q
hairless, stubl,ed tail, a dropping ear,
and dead eye. But what he lacks in
personal appearance he richly makes
up in sagacity. The other morning,
shortly after dawn, the farmer found
that both horse and mule had been
stolen out of the stable during the night.
After breakfast time the mule limped
home, travelling for the most part on
three legs. One of the rear fetlocks
was badly sprained, and his lips were
Hecked with blood as though he had
been trying to chew something too
tough tor ordinary masticating powers.
Almost at the same hour a sorry-looking
man with $50 bill in his pocket was
arrested as suspicious person by the
Carmansv1lle police. He was covered
with cuts and bruises, which he ac-
counted for by saying that he had been
knocked down by a runaway horse,
crushed by the wheels of the wagon be-
hind it, and mangled by dog that was
pursuing the turnout. The farmer sus-
nects that the man was in contact with
both ends of his mule, and that the S2o
is the result of cheap horse sale.
