A TeIepathic Shock.

Senator Tillman of South Carolina
has the prize tenderfoot story of the

In the South it Is a proverb that
a negro's head is hard enough to
break n mules leg if the mule is fool

kick it, his leg is broken, the family
binds a paling to it, and he is of no
further value as a beast of burden.
