LIE PIECE CITY MOB.

There are three things out OF the ordinary in the mob
demonstration at Pierce City Missouri.
The first is that seems to have killed innocent
people and that the guilty escaped
The second is that farmer saw the assault which
provoked the riot but hearing oury from the young
Woman. did interfere.
The third is that the leaders Of the mob by ending with
an attack on all the negro portion Of the town revealed the
exact nature Of their hate which was racial
It would interesting what the leaders of the
mob really think now that they they made mis-
take It certain that by the way Of cleaning their own
conscences they are assuring themselves that the whole
negro race should be blotted out
It would also be interesting to know what the self
same leaders think Of the nacton the farmer who stood
by and saw the deed and never lifted finger; to know if
this indignant crowd was so morally perspcaciOus that it
could see his obloquy Probably not The dispatches
emanating locally carefully protect his name.
And it would be an interesting item the leaders Of
the mob were known What standing have they in Pierce
City? OF course in the language Of the local chronicer
Of mobs they were leading and prominent citizens"
Were they Of course they were not Not one Of
the men Who led a community ilto blind passion for
blood was prominent or leading No merchant Of prom
nence no politician Of standing Professional figure Of
rcDate led although the papers viii say SO The men
who led We're not the men who stand for the law and
thrift and morality OF the community If they had been
they ever were there would be mistakes the parts
Of mobs. there would be no nobs.

TIE STORY OF mike AND THE MULE.

From Richfeld, n J.. story worthy of a place
the classic tales that illustrate animal sagacy and
suggest that in the matter OF souls horses and dogs are
not properly to be cased with corporations chronicles
the New York World
As related by the truthful Richfeld reporter boy
bathing there last Saturday in the old Morris Essex
Canal seized with cramps and began to sink. boat
drawn by big mule named Mike" happened alongside in
the neck Of time Mike took in the situation stop
ped instantly let the towline fall slack. Then
venevoent beast waited till the lad grasped it, where
he started of slowly and pulled him of the water
And all this mike the mule did without orders from any
body
is easy to treat tale like this with sceptic scorn
There are people probably. who doubt Artemus Wards
story Of the intelligent dog that after reading notice
posted on tree that m dogs found on these grounds will
be shot" turned tail and trotted home To such people
even Balaams ass would have talked vain let
be ncredulous about such stories this of the
New Jersey mule that saved drowning boy. They at
tend to make animals interesting to mankind
and mankind more c0nsiderate of animals.
