occupation of the veterinary dentist is not pleasant; but he has studied the peculiari- ties and wickedness of his long-eared pa- tients and goes about his work, showing neither fear nor favor, no matter how vi- cious his patient may be. It frequently happens that just as he has finished doctor ing the mules' teeth at colliery his pa- tients are so regretful over his near depart ure that they make frantic efforts to keep a mouthful of his person ith them, or, fail ing in this they try to leave the imprint of one of their sharp shoes on his anatomy as an everlasting souvenir of their apprecia- tion. The mules stubbornness, however, is more than offset by the dentists grit and determination, and he never passes pa- tient until he has closely examined its mouth and treated all teeth that are in need of his attention.
 One of MT. Mules amiable weaknesses Is the habit of bolting his food, which fre- quently causes dyspepsia or other diseases. This bolting of his food is not caused by a desire to hasten his meal so that he can hurry back to his work, but because his molars or back teeth, with which he does his grinding, having more work to perform than his front teeth, with which he nips the pernicious door boy and driver, wear away in the course of few years, and be- come much shorter than the front ones, thus allowing the food to pass into the stomach without being properly masticated. In cases of this kind the incisors or front teeth have to be filed an eighth or a quarter of an inch. so that they are all uniform IT fr ,t,ok A1A Ifc1s1 and it is not much wonder, as he Is locked in stocks, his head firmly secured, and then when his tongue is pulled to one side the dentist wears the projecting teeth down with an intrument that has a greater rasp than a coarse file.
 As soon as the mule sees the dentist with his bright steel instrument he seems to real- ize what is in store for him. and distends his nostrils and eyes. He means pitifully when tooth is being extracted, and seems to be happy when the diseased molar is drawn out, no merciful anaesthetics being given. At times, in showing his objections to the operators heroic measures, the mule jumps over the bars behind which he is con- fined. The molars of mule are three and half inshes in length. hile the incisors maesure two and a half; and, judging from his signs of pain, the nerves are as plenti- full and sensitive as are those of human beings. An expert dentist operates on twenty-four mules a day, and mule pa- tient will remember the operator as long as he lives. The extracting instruments are from two to three feet in length, and the entire case of instruments weighs fully sixty pounds. The teeth of every mine mule are examined and treated if necessary, once or twice year, and as soon as the dentist puts in his appearance at mine his former patients become unusually nervous and vicious.

Fort Wrangel news., 1898-07-27
THE MONO IS WRECKED.
Captain ArmStrong'S Fine River
 Steamer a Total Loss.

Built on the stlkeen River. and One of the Best
 Boats that Ever Made this City Her Home
 Port.
 The people of Fort Wrangel were shocked to hear of the total loss of the British river steamer Mono, the news of which reached the city last Monday evening. The wrecking of the boat oc' cured on the G:}rd inst. on the east side of Busby island, about twenty six miles from this port. She was sighted by the revenue cutter Cosmos, Hofstad cap tain, and Captain pando of that boat was placed in temporary charge of the disabled vessel. The Cosmos then re- turned to Fort Wrangel to secure an inspector to look after the wreck. Col lector Arment detailed Inspector Den ny to take charge of the wreck and he went down on the Cosmos, leaving the city at , a. Ill. yesterday morning Those who were on board the Mono are living in tents near whore the boat is on the rocks, being thirteen in number, one of whom was injured, the particu- lars of which we have not yet ascer tained The Mono is rapidly going to pieces and parts of her are constantly floating in the surrounding waters.
 The Mono was a fine river boat, of unusually light draught, d splendid traveller, and was always able to make the trip through to Telegraph creek. She was built on the Stikeen river near the boundary line. Capt. Armstrong with crew aud force of ship builders went into eight feet of SHOW last win ter, put up saw mill and planer, and in fifty eight days she was making her first trip up the Stikeen.
 She had not made d trip for some time. Her wheel was removed and great amount of work was done on her to put the boat in good condition to be lowed to St. Michaels. She was in tow and on her way when the accident oc- cured The Stikeen Chief was also be- ing lowed by the same tug. The latter said good bye to the Mono and pro ceeded on their journey, and no doubt we will in due time publish an account of the loss of the Chief. for few indeed are the river boats that can endure the storms of the northern seas.
 The cause of the accident was the parting of rotten hawser. The cap tain of the Fastnet paid no attention to the signals of distress by the Mono, but went on, leaving her to her fate.
 She was insured for S}O,0Oo.
