dealing with a stubborn mule. At the
entrance to the subway extension
near Trinity church the other morn.
ing a negro driver tried to persuade
his impassive steed to enter the cage
in which he was to be lowered down
the shaft. The mule approached the
cage, but not a than two feet.
There he stopped, and no amount Of
patting. tugging or kicking availed to
move him forward.
Finally the driver Invested himself
Of his coat and tied 1t about the
mules eyes. But that wasn't enough.
The sagacity of the kicker was too
great, and he again stopped on the
edge of the cage. The mule was led
away and turned around several times
to mix him up. He was not to be
mixed.
Then the cage was moved and the
driver led his mule bllndfolded all the
way around the block. This time he
was fooled and was in the hated cage.
It had taken an hour and amused at

Freak Subject Of Much Discussion
Around Union Pacific Headquar.
Bear River Driving Salt Water Of
Lake to the Southern End.

Are the waters of the Great Salt lake
becoming freshened through the con-
struction of the great Oregon Lucin
cutoff of the Southern Pacific? asks the
Denver Times.
Engineers of the railroad are much
puzzled owe this matter. 1t is declar-
ed that the waters north of the cutoff,
which in times beyond the memory OF
man have been bitterest brine, are
gradually becoming sweetened. Elk
perts are unable to account for the
phenomenon.
The freak is the subject of much dis.
cussion around Union Pacific head.
quarters in Denver. So far none of
the local officials has been able to ex,
plain it.
One therory is that the Bear Spring
river, which flows into the great salt
sea near Ogden, is forcing the briny
water beyond the cutoff. This stream
is about 300 feet wide and is the sweet.
est in Utah. 1t pours an immense vol
ume of water into the lake daily. 1t
Is argued that the entertainments and
piles of the cutoff check the flow OF
the salt water. Thus the sweet water
of the river flowing in to the northern
end of the lake is kept sweet and pure.
1t is reported that the area of sweet
water is increasing every day. Some of
the oldest inhabitants are shaking
heads dolefully and predicting
that tn esaltesea, once the greatest at
traction o fMormondom, is doomed by
