that the Prosser maa desired to make
eundry stops along the line; this, of
course, iuspi ed the mules with desire
to GO. and our speed grew dizzy as we
struck out across to Mahton.
Ahead in the dusty distance toiIed a
land scow of an animal, whose hoe is
plowed the light soil and filled several
cubic feet of atmosphere with the pre-
cious commodity. Loyal to the core, our
noble beasts pressed eagerly forward,
yearnng to absorb through every por-
ton of their anatomy,-to be drenched
in the filtered richness of Yakima real
estate. Once in the fullness of if, they
seemed content, and appeared more than
willing To spend days, perhaps weeks,
with their appreciative noses resting re.
tlectively on the en- board of that lun-
bering vehicle. 1t was only the inter
vention of Mahton, and the discovery
that we were obliged to stop there, that
could have reused in their mobile minds

but the driver was a mighty man, we'll

the country to Sunnyside
1t was 1870 p. III. when we reached
Suunyside, aud we were at once hes set
by a score of dealers in disintegratei
ash, with liberal offers per square foot
for the tracts upon our shoulders. The
air was full of the rush and whirl that
characterizes a western city leaving the
chrysali5 state and passing into a fall
1ledged, glittering municipality, with all
the bravery of new shingles ION roofs
and over doorwaysl, of plate glass and
new paint and wooden sidewalks, and a
society column in the weekly paper.
The Gay was ono of the loveliest that

the entire popuiace was out taking the

discussed the new city ordinance, which
seemed startlinsly metro olitau, viz,
"That no COW 0r Cusgs shall hereafter be
permitted to run at large in the streets"

The shadows fell; the wind, an element
hitherto unnoticed, rose and demanded

insolently at loosely fastened wraps: it
toyed with the mobile heal appendages
of the mules, who were becoming be-

their decision occasionally, to the end
that we were able to locate satisfactorily
