Tho Army Mule.

The army mule came out of the clvi
war not exactly baloed, but much re.
spected. He has won more laurels in the
Yanko-Spanko war. and though he will
probably not get all the praise due him,
he will be occasionally mentioned in
song or story, and possibly in govern.
ment report. His achievements in Cuba
have been very meritorious He went
there stranger to the climate and all
unused TO the horrors of the war. From
the quiet and peace of Southern plan
tatlon he was plunged into the tumuli

He stood the plunge we'll. Serene amids,
alarms, patient in toll and courageous in
the fiery test of battle, he has proved
himself hero. II he has occasional,
kicked, it Is not more than most of those
who have had anything to do with the
Cuban campaign have done, and his
Kicking has not been called hostile TO the
administration. So it has not done mu
harm and has probably done some good
Twelve hundred robust and heroic
army mules have been sent "a Cuba. and
It is recorded that only tweL = :wo have
died. They have defied all the rules Of
sanitary science. They haven't drunk
boiled water or slept on platforms lifted
above the ground. And yet they live to
