Samuel Richards, postmaster of Knee
laud, strict Prohibitionist. who runs

the stock he discovered large amount OF
whisky stored IN the basement. His
first thought was to throw the liquor
away. He was strict Prohibitionist
and had no use for the fiery stuff. He
had, however, strong aversion to being
wasteful. and the thought of throwing
away anything of value was distasteful
to him. Moreover. he thought it wonld
be sinful to waste. Mr.. Richards was ar
loss what TO dc. when ii occurred to
him that he might sell the whisky in a
judicious manner. without doing any
harm. He did not think that in so doing
he would commit any fault So he dis
posed OF the liquor little By little.

John Ph~uix on Mule Artillery.

Out in certain western fort, some
time ago, the major conceived the Idea
that artillery might be used effectively in
fighting with the Indians by dispensing
with gun carriages and fastening the
cannon upon the backs of mules. SO he
explained his views 10 the commandment,
and it was determined to try the expert
ment. A hOwitZer was selected and
strapped upon an ambulance mule, with
the muzzle pointed toward the tail.
When they had secured the gun, aud
loaded IL with ball cartridge, they led
that calm and steadfast mule out on the
blum, and set up a target in the middle of
the river to practice at. The rear of the
mule was turned toward the target, and
he was backed gently up to the edge Of
the bluff. The officers stood around i'm a
semi-circle, while the major went up and
inserted time-fuSe in the touch-hole of
the howitzer. When the fuse was ready,
the major lit it and retired In minute
or two the hitherto unruflled mule heard
the fixing back there on his neck, and il
made him uneasy. He reached his head
around to ascertain what was going on,
and, as he did so, his body turned, and
and the howitzer began to sweep around
the horizon. The mule ar last became
excited and his curiosity became more
