A SCENE ON THE TOW PATH.
A Mule, Two Mules and the Captain,
In a Row.

Shortly after ten o'clock yesterday morn
ing three canal boats were seen slowly MAX
ing their way on the Morris Canal, near
Chapel avenue. Canal boats are no novelty,
but the men who were in charge of these
vessels gave unmistabable evidence that
everything was not all right. The canal
boats were all punched together and were
sliding through the dirty water at a pace
that would lave been considered slow by
lead was being pulled along by a
single mule, while the other two in the rear
each had a team Of mules. The leading
mule could not pull his load along as rapid
ly as his brethren in the rear We're capable
of towing their loads, and his slow progress
earned for him the curses of the captains of
the two craft in the rear. When the boats
reached Chapel avenue the captain of the
second vessel resolved to TAX the lead, and
ordered the boy driving his team of mules
to push ahead, while he steered the boat out
to the middle of the stream SO as to
pass the one ahead of him. Everything
went we'll until the team caught
became ~entangled in the tow line. The
mules began tolkick and paw the ground at
furious rate. This frightened the team,
which started to run away but the fractions
mules were brought to a sudden halt by the
tightening of the tow line as it wound itself
around the legs OF the kicking pTObner. by
this time the three captains wereyengJased in
the ~liveliett kind Of a debate asto Who was
to blame for the tangled up coniition of aft
fairs and the more the tied upg 4flile kicked
the more excited the captains became and
they began to kick also ysth III 2iH
The debate waxed warmer and warmer.
and the captains finally left their boats for
the towpath to settle the matter according
to the Marquis of Queensbory rules, but the
the exhibition of the manly art was inter-
rupted by an accident. The mule which was
tangled up in the tow line in somo unac-
countable manner slipped of the towpath
and fell into the canal. The frightened
animal aoundered in the water and made
several attempts to climb up on the tow
path. By this time a crowd of over one
hundred people had gathered and all sorts of
advice was flung at the captains who were
trying all sorts of plans to rescue the mule.
Tie captains. who had forgotten that they
were enemies, finally secured a heavy rope
and while one of them took off most of his
wearing apparel and jumped into the canal

ADoZEN LIVING HENS
Brought Up in Bags From Long Island BY
a Hebrew Man and Woman.

They were short and stout, and as
they hurried across Commercial street
laden with large short bags, (the man
carrying two the woman one) they made
rather ludicrous appearance. 1t was
because the street was SO muddy and
there was something in the bags APP
parently that made it necessary to carry
them in very gingerly manner.
They were Hebrew husband and
wife, and they had just come from Long
Island. In the three bags were dozen
plump, live hens. They were alive be-
cause no Hebrew will buy dead hens,
because they must be killed by the
Rabbi before they are fit for him to eat.
They had obtained the hens on Long
Island in payment for various dry and
fancy goods that the man had sold there.
He had over $40 worth of goods distri-
buted over the is land, for which he will
largely take his pay in farm produce
He has brought up several living calves
this summer. He goes to all the ISL
ands as far as Orr's Island, and does
quite business.

showed that the memory of the $4,000 plu-

When told that luck as huntsman was
referred to he said that he went into the
wood neither TO hunt nor to fish. but for
recreation. II have gained three pounds

The Duty on Cold Rolled Cast Steel.

The UnitedStates Circuit Court of APP
peals,. through Judge Putnam, has rem
dered decision in the case of the Unit
ed States VS.. Farnk J. Wethersll, holding
that cold rolled cast steel" for use in
the manufacture of clock springs is sub
ject to an ad valorem duty of SO per
cent. The.decision reverses the Judgment
of the Circuit Court, which he'd that
the imported article was dutiabe as
steel in forms an shapes not specially
provided for, and liable to duty of but
two cents pound. This conclusion of
the Circuit Court, on the other hand. re.
verses the decision of the general ap-
praisers, which found that the article
was dutiabIe as now found by the Court
of Appeals.
