This mule is Mr.. George Fer
guson 5 SIDE partner in construc-
ton OF new building, as a recent
photo will show. Mr.. Cooper
pet and clown. He is a great big
) year old baby jet black, long
ears. fine silky hair, gentle as a
lamb, can pick up either of his feet
with safety and ties his ears in
bow knot whenever desired. He
stands 10 l-2 hands high III his
stocking feet and still growing,
weighs now l23o lbs. and has 100
OF 200 more TO go.
Besides working hard every day
with rare intelligence he has done
many unusual things. Works per-
tectly by the word on single line
block and fall ior hosting and
lowering material and is given
credit OF stopping runaway by
catching bride rein in his teeth
and holding the fractlous horse.
The most remarkable OF all was
his quietly walking up long scat
fold to a height of about 30 feet
above the ground and posing for
his picture with the men for half
hour or more. We can produce
plenty OF witnesses to all above /;
have more To follow, but will await
news from other prize mules.
He was one of the mules that
pulled the Wilmington fire en-
gineS to places the night of fire
uly 2T--two mules to each en-
glnc. weighing over 5000 lbs.
The Monday Club or Bachelor

shine for him too. He has proven
himself handy for straw rides. In
fact, he is a wonder. Mr.. Walter
Townsend. coolred, is the mules
guiding star and comforter. Mr..

After the sham battle Walter Brook
ins gave another of his thrilling ex-
hibitions of his ability to handle the
big Wright machine by making a
series of whirling turns. ending with a
daring rush through the surf in which
his runners were buried in a monster
breaker. The crowd. who thought that
the youngster was about to tumble in

when he lifted his plane into the air
and landed safely on the beach.
There followed such maneuvers and
such dangerous stunts as probably
never before have marked an aviation

Most spectacular and thrilling of all
was the feat that the aviator called

pletely over with his machine while
hundreds of feet above the heads of

The daring aviator would take his
machine TO u good height so that il
was plainly visible TO all the dense
and cheering throng Then he would
point the PROV" of his vessel almost
straight upward. while his motor hum

While in this almost perpendicular
position he gave his rudder plane a
quick turn and whilred round and

upside down and clear over.
Then came another stunt. little less

below TO catch their breath in aston
ishment at the daring of the man.
Brookins scared beautifully. then
gave his rudder the required twist and
went "hlrilng around again, this time
