DE LAMAR'S DRINKING MULE
He Is a Colorado Product But Possesses a Me-
yada Thirst.


story is going the rounds that De
Lamar, Lincoln county, is the possessor
of mule with a thirst. De Lamar is
a mining camp and is as sporty as
most places of a like character in the
country. Just now it thinks it goes
them all one better because it has the
mule. 1t is perfectly natural for many
bipeds to spend their money for whis-
ky, yet this especial mule, by show
of cussedness out of the ordinary even
for a mule, compels his master to buy
the grog for him.
The mule is a Colorado product, and
acquired the drinking habit at Colo
1ado Springs. A great many men also
acquire the habit there. The mule
proved too expensive even for the city
Of millionaires, for he was sold to a
Utah man, who in turn took him to
De Lamar.
| BY an instinct born of his acquired
habit the mule knows saloon as well
as any other topper, and he refuses to
go by one without his drink. 1t costs
$150 to drive him up the main street
of the mining camp. Once he gets it
into his mulish head that a place is a
come before he moves on. Every means
has been tried to compel him to go by
without his dram, but to no effect. The
owner has a standing reward of SIS to
anyone who will break him of the hab-
/ it and it remains unclaimed. A
four-h horse team was hitched to the ami
mails neck by means of a chain, and
the saloon circuit was attempted. The
fight began when the first drinking
| that he was fated to go by the place,
but he refused to walk( and so was
dragged all over the town. The mo-
ment he was let upon his feet by his
captors he eluded them and ran back
to the door of the first saloon He was
given his drink, which he takes in a

Debate on Cuba was precipitated in
the House yesterday by Mr.. Robinson
of Indiana, who criticised the salaries
paid in the Philippines He suggested
to Mr.. Newlands of Nevada that he
should add to his Cuban annexation
resolution a provision that such an
nexation would be in line with the gov

not contemplate the perpetuation of the
colonial policy, but it was the declared
intention to have Cuba ultimately ad-
mitted as a State. He said that i'm
mediate relief was necessary to prevent
a crisis in Cuba.
