Col. Briggs is a resident of New Jer-
sey, tiller of the soil, and is vouched
for by his neighbors as a man of truth
fulness, whose bond is as good as his
word. When, therefore, he tells the
story of his nearsighted mule, and the
means by which this difficulty has been
overcome, his tale is worthy place in
these chronicles. "My horse" says the
colonel, sis a mewl. He can't see a
fence till he gets his nose within three
feet Of it, and then he SHES. Mistakes
the pigpen for the barn, and tries to git
in with the hogs. Stumbles over the
pasture fence and stubs his nose, which
makes him kick. Drinks out o. the milk
pail cause he thinks it's water, an
gently makes an all-round mewl fool of
himself.

An Old Man, Sick and Hopeless,
Uses Blunt Pocket Knife.
This morning at $3.50 o'clock the
police patrol wagon was summoned
to the corner Of Centre and Hack
berry streets, to convey an old
man to the hospital for surgical
treatment.
The old man was found on the
street lying in pool of blood.
He had couple OF knife stabs in
the eide Of his neck back of his
right ear and from his own &C
count they were self ioflicted with
suicidal intent. He said his name
is Geo. Behrens, aged 60 years,
that he came here one week ago
from Los Angeles, California,
though he had once before been in
San Antonio some years ago.
Eight years ago he owned a big
ice factory in Marshall, Texas, but
he has lately been ill with paraly-
sis and lum bago and being alone
in the world and destitute, he
thought he would end his troubles
with his pocket knife. The knife,
however, was too dull OF edge to
the job.
He was taken to police head
quarters and DR.. Menger dressed
his wounds, after which he was
sent to the hospital and an aft.
davit charging him with insanity
was lodged against him in the
county court.
