About Mules.

Nv. L. DeClow, of Cedar Rapids,
va. gives the following reasons why
ack would prove good property for
,eding to mares in many localities:
The mule is in demand every
ere.
The price of the mule has been
m IS to "a per cent higher than the
,se from 1880 to 1898.
The mule does not become blem-
ed and unmarketable as four out OF
/ horses do.
The mule can be shipped ON the
q rket and sold like hog or steer,
&c fixed by his inches high, any
e after he is four months old,
. lie the horse must have full mouth
years old) before he can be mar
ed at all.
The mule can be raised for one
ID less than the horse.
e also says: ''The war is now end
American enterprise will rush to
"a and the other new possessions,
will quickly develop the wonder
resources of those countries. But
mule is one of the most necessary
cles in the development of these
ntries, and the expectation of So
to $4,000 per year to these coun-
S would be very low estimate.
the number exported each year
more than likely double this
,unt. I believe it is safe to pre-
that good 16-hand mules will sell
$3.50 each within three wears from
date" -Southern Ruralist.

1t is safe to say that more than half

Despite her age. however. her mind Is active,
and she startled the auctioneers by oiddlng IN

The woman who put on the block is
Mrs Elmira Quick. She Is seventy seven years
old, and has resided nearly the whole OF ner lie
in LackawaXen Township.
Her sale at auction was in pursuance OF GUS

The room was crowded. and many outside

The bidding started at 81 week and was
very spirited.
The auctiOneers were about TO knock down
the woman to a backwoodsman for 81 80 week

when Mrs Quick, who had been a silent listener
TO the proceedings arose from her chair and In
quiet tones said

This turn In the proceedings was wholly IN

was the aged woman to live on l6 cents day?
No one seemed willing to so below Mrs.
Quick's bid, and the auctioneers saw no alterna-

Since 1850 when Augusta became a
city, Augusta has had many fire
chiefs, though not so many as the a.
years that have elapsed would allow
in case there had been many changes.
The city has had a few men since that
time in whom they have had implicit
trust, and they have been elected time
after time for a series of years.
The first of all was John A. Pet
tingill. who served for a year only.
Then Fri Wills held the position in
1851 and 1852, and again in 1857 and So.
and still once more in 1865, at the time
of the disastrous Water street fire
that swept out so large q
section of Water street. J. II.
Norcross was the man who from
1853 to 1855 was in command over the
iremen, while Moses f. Hamlen was
the chief in 1856. Mr.. HamIen had
served for part Of the year 1852 when
Mr.. Wills resigned. Joseph Anthony
held the title in 1859 and 1860. ]. W.
Welch in 1861, Daniel III. Davis in 1862.
Then began the service of Henry T.
Morse, the present city marshal, upon
several breaks until his resignation in
1892. Mr.. Morse served in 1863 and
1864, and then gave way to Hon. p. o.
Vickery, who was the chief for six
years. completing his term of service
in 1871. In that year Mr.. Morse again
took command and continued with the
exception Of 1877 until he resigned in
1878, and G. G. Burns was elected to

Charles G. Kicker is the chief en-

eighth time at the last spring election.
He was first chosen in 1892. when
Henry T. Morse declined in his favor.

reached long lines were formed by the
wardens. who were armed with long
red poles with an AK and hook on the
end. These lines extended from the
fire to the nearest water supply, gen

Leighton had been the chief in 1877
and J. w. Harlow was elected in 1879
AlOnzo p Small was chosen for the
year 1880. From 1851 to 1884 Mr..
Morse served continuously. Then
Green c. Flagg was elected to take the
helmet but he resigned before his year
was out and Mr.. Morse was again
placed in the lead to serve out Mr.
Flagg's year. After that he continued
as the chief until in 1892 after having
been reelected by Democratic city
government he resigned in favor of
Charles G.. Kicker who has since been
in office.
These chiefs can tell some interest
ing stories when they are so inclined.
as can any others of the firemen of the
other days when Augusta was without
the present fire apparatus.
Ex-Chief Vickery, the other night,
while speaking of his experiences,
said to the Journal:
You may state that l made my
mark at the fire in 1866 at the head of
the dam. At that time there were
many mills along the river front up
near the dam. and a fire broke out one
cold winters day in the very middle
of those mills. 1t was one of the cold
est days of winter. and the fire was a
bad one. l flatter myself that I did
good job there, for | cut out that fire
from the very middle of the mills, and
saved the thousands of dollars worth
of property. 1t was a hard fight,
though, and we had terrible time
with the cold.
was SO frozen that we had to use hot
water TO uncouple it, and we hauled it
like sticks of timber to the houses.
where it had to be thawed out. I also
did good job once in a bad fire on
Water street. where l cut out another
building from the line of the fire. and
prevented a serious conflagration.
Marshal Morse can tell of the days
away back in the first Monday of
April. 1858. when he first Joined the
fire department, signing his name to
the old Pacific As rolls. He tells of the
days of the leathern hose, when the
cold winter days would freeze them 50
that only hole the size of the nozzle
would be found through the pipe.
Those We're the days when Augusta
took the lead in many of the firemens
musters. The Pacifics and the Allan
tics were both very prominent in the
contests, and many a prize did they
bring home. Then came the contests
in which the steamer Cushnoc or the
"Old DR.. HILL as it was called, were
entered.
II attended out on musters until l
got on all the committees and got to
