MULE WITH A JAG ON.
An Incident of Farmer Crcasy's
Big Meeting at the Court House
Last Fall.

Saturdays Philadelphia Rec
ord says that when John H. Fow
was out stumping the State with
Farmer Greasy he entered the
town of McConnellsburg, in Ful
ton county, after q long drive over
the mountains. he chanced to
mention that en route he had
stopped at Waidlich'a Cave,
where he had found much spirit
ual comfort. Fired to emulation,
two of the young men Of the town
drove over to Waidhch's place,
which is a distillcry, and on their
return brought with them u Jug
of whisky wrapped in hay in the
bottom of the wagon. At the ho-
tel they tied their team in the
shed, little thinking of what
would follow. An inquisitive
mule scented the hay, and in no
sing about upset the Jug, and the
corncob stopper came out. The
hay quickly became saturated
with the liquor, which seemed to
add to the mules enjoyment. He
ate his fill and Immediately de
veloped q beautiful jag, during
the course of which he kicked the
wagon into kindling wood. Rep
resentative George w. Skinner
communicated these facts to Mr..
Fow the other day, and Mr.. Fow
wrote back; 81 am sorry my ref
erence to Waidlich's Cave should
have had such a demoralizing in
Auence upon the citizens of Full
ton county. | have read that the
injection of the blood of u goat in
to the human veins would make
one young again. But there is
something more serious, and that
is the cure of the habit that drives
the citizens Of Fulton county to
Waidlich's Cave. | would advise
that the blood OF that mule be
used as an injection, and | have
no doubt that the teetotalism of
the inhabitants Of Fulton will be
come as well known as is the alb
sence of railroads within her bor-
ders."
