A SUBSTITUTE FOR MULES.

Lately we have seen in several of our contemporaries the somewhat dictatorial or authoritative statement that "the doom of the mule is sounded" It comes. as we understand from our Consul at Frank fort, Germany, General Guenther. and is in brief. a declaration that the mule is to be supplanted or displaced by the ''zeb- rula." which Is a cross between the horse and the zebra. This hybrid, General Guenther asserts. is superior to the mule in most respects. and is destined to take his place.
 Now. we are not an expert on zebras, and do not remember to have seen a zebrula, but we do know something about the mule. and We protest against any eff fort to put him out of business, as we doubt the possibility of doing so. Mules are among our most ancient and valued possessions, and they are one of the me- cessities of existence. Especially is this the case where there are negroes, for they are complements of each other. We admit that there were no mules in the ark, because there were no negroes to look after them. If Ham was a negro he didn't display 1t, as we understand it, until after the flood. It follows that If there was no negro in the ark, there were no mules. A pair of well-developed mules would have caused a mutiny in the ark, unless there had been one or more ne- groes to manage them. We shouldn't wonder if they hadn't caused Noah to No 4c the way we look at 1t. That's logic.
 The first Biblical mention we find of mules was in the days of Absalom, the third son of King David. When, at the command of Absalom, his servants assas- sinated Ammon. "every man gat him up- on his mule and fled" That was very appropriate proceeding, and mules were doubtless the favorite animal for the country and for special occasions. All that has nothing to do with the question before the house. except as 1t goes to show that our long-eared and uncertain friend has been with us for three thous- and years or more, and is not to be dis credited or set aside by any modern in- vention, even with the seductive name of zebrula. We don't believe our colored fellow citizens could get half the satis- faction out of this new combination that they do out of the old In fact, we doub, if the zebrula, If brought to our Southern regions. would understand anything a ne. gro would say to him. He may cut quite a figure in the old world, but not in Ala. bama.

New Kind of Headlight.

recent improvement in railroad loco motive headlights is to send a beam oi light vertically from the locomotive. as we'll as straight ahead. The column of light rising vertically from the locomo- tive can be seen from a great distance even though ( hill should intervene to h.de the ordinary headlight and dull the sound of the whistle. The searchlight eff feet used aboard ships is thus to some extent utilized. An approaching locomo. tive with this device always signals its coming with a pillar of fire" by night producing an impressive as well as useful result.

A newspaper can be forgiven much of it's political wanderings when 1t can speak as The virginian-Pilot does in the follow ing extract:
 Mfr. Bryan has since 1900 became arro- gant and dictatorial.He has quite gratu- itously assumed that he is the only ex ponent of Democracy. The Virginian- Pilot will not stand for arrogance or die tation in party affairs from MT. Bryan or any other man in trousers. Likewise. Mir. Bryan has permitted his personal animos- ity to drive him to injudicious and un- dignified public utterances and even to a wholly unwarranted attack upon his party. And however much The Virginian- Pilot may have admired and still admires MT. Bryan's high qualities, it does not feel called upon to throw raptures when he makes fool of himself, to remain siI- ent or endorse his attack upon the Dem ocratic Party.
 If all the papers which have heretofore supported MT. Bryan would be equally outspoken and fearless, the Nebraskan would soon find himself so utterly forgot ten that the world would forget that he once lived and orated
