BURRos GO ON STRIKE
Intelligent Animals Fool Miner Who
Builds TreadmlIl

From the New York Press
The stubbornness Of the Rocky noun
tain burro was strikingly shown by an oc-
currence In the Gold Hill district Of Boul-
der. A Gold Hill miner had fve-foot
run of oxidized sulphide ores. He decid-
ed to work the ore himself in an arastra,
which he built, and to save expense he
fitted it up to operate with tread-mill
power, intending to use three burros to
work it. The animals labored in separate
stalls, side by side, all the belts working
on the same shaft
The first day showed the scheme to be
a decided success. ton and half of
ore was reduced to a pulp. and the miner
congratulated himself on having extracted
about $50 worth of the precious metal
with no expense beyond his own labor and
the feed of his animals. He was jubilant
and proposed to carry on the process In
definitely. But he reckoned without his
burros. They were of different mind
They had already grown tired of SO mo-
notonous and laborious a task as con-
stantly travelling up hill without making
any progress, and as they plodded along
on the second day there was probably a
significant rubbing OF noses over the par
titions.
The miner, meanwhile, was in the mine
breaking ore and chuckling over his sue
cess. Shortly before noon he came to
throw in some more ore, when to his as
constituent he found everything at a
standstill. The burros were In their re-
spective stalls, calmly contemplating the
landscape, but there was no movement of
the machine. How was 1t possible for
them to stand still on that movable in
cline the miner could not imagine, unless
some blocks of ore had become damned
