HE KNEW a TENDERFoor.

Jerseyman's Exciting Experience with
Pennsylvania Mine Mule.
Patrick Murray, of Perth Amboy, N.
j., had an exciting experience few
days ago with mine mule at Summit
Hill, Pa, which he will never forget.
says the New York Post When he
reached the bottom of the slope and
proceeded to explore the gangway he
attracted the attention of one of the
mules. He is at loss to know what
angered the animal, but the beast
came for him at full speed, and Murray
started for a heading with nothing
but the light of miners lamp to guide
him.
1t was race for life. The mule
was rapidly closing the gap, when, the
Jerseyman reached two mine cars. He
plunged between them. The mule
countermarched and began. using his
hind feet with terrible effect. He
kicked the stout oak planks of the
car into kindling wood, and while he
was occupied in this manner MURRAY
made his escape and returned to the
surface. He is fully satisfied that the
mine mule is not to be trifed with, es-
pecially if you are tenderfoot with a
red necktie

SAWED A SALOON in TWO.

Straddling State Line, 1t Made Lot of
Trouble.
Bill Lewis. one of the first to settle
in Kansas City, and one of the wicked
est men that ever lived there, died a
few days ago, says western exchange
Since 1866 he has been known as the
king of Toad-a-Loup, district which
harbored about all the known criminals
in town. The saloon he kept in Toad
a-Loup was hardly less notorious than
himself. 1t was built exactly on the
state line between Kansas and Mis-
souri, and was furnished with nova
BILE bar. Lewis paid no license, and
when the Missouri tax collector called
upon him he moved his bar over in
Kansas. When the authorities of the
latter state attempted to arrest him he
transferred his business in minute to
Missouri Hewas arrested many times,
but had to be released. Concerted ac-
ton on the part of the authorities of
both states finally ended the career of
Lewis barroom in Toad-a-Loup. The
direction of the state line was chalked
off on the saloon and the structure was
sawed in two from roof t3cellar with
an immense crosS-cut saw.
