AN OpOSSUM MULE
A cRITTENpEN WONDER

*,s+a*$+ts*s+@+$+tp*'s*5+S*'a+,.
We have often heard farmers in
this section proudly boast of their
unexcelled opossum ours, in TACT,
they are very common things, but
an opossum mulc-one that can
actually scent an opossum, and, 10y
its acute sense Of smell, distinguish .

this talented quadrupcd is told by !
Mr.. Iarkin Hard, of near this city,
the truth of which he vouches for,
/ his father having raised His Mule
ship, whose genealogy and charac-
teristics are matters Of personal
knowledge to our informant.
He is a very ordinary, unprcten-
tious sort of mule, with ears Of
average length. His name is Beck.
There is nothing in a name, how.
ever, for no less than 800 mules in
the county hear the same title.
But this Beck enjoys an instinct
that the common herd Of Becks
can't boast Of
Beck was purchased Of the elder
Mr.. Hard by G.. W Parish, Of

was known of bis canine qualities,
and they were not discovered until
one night when Mr.. Parish rode
Beck To services at Caldwell Spring

until they were on their return trip,

Central OF New England X, n,

New York, Feb. 1o,-Negotiation are
reported TO have been completed by
agents Of the New York. New Haven &
Hartford for the absorption OF the Gen.
trail OF New England railway. The lat
ter was OF little value outside OF It's
strategic importance as an independent
connecting link between the anthracite
coal fields Of Pennsylvania and New
England, The road was merely a con-
Meeting link and was blocked on one
end by the big anthracvite carriers and
on the other by the New Haven. AS a
part OF the consolidated system IL
would give the New Haven direct con-
nection with the Erie, the New York,
Ontario & Western and branch of the
Central railroad Of New Jersey. and the
shortest route from the coal fields to
New England by way of the Pough-
keepsie bridge, which Is the only rail-
road structure across the Hudson river
south Of Albany.
The Central New England was first
brought into prominence about Ave
years ago by Its fight for a rght.of-
way across farm In Connecticut. The
farm was secured and the right Of. way
completed. although the road finally
lost Its case In the courts and had TO
make detour OF four miles to accom-
plish distance of $40 feet.
The money involved in the reported
sale Is not known.
