The indispensable Mule.

The mule is a distinct, separate
species CT quadruped. No process
of development produced this use

between a jack and a mare Of the
horse tribe So far nature is court
eous and gives us the mule, but be-
yond that she will not 90. No
horse or mare mule can multiply
its kind, so they must have been
created for some special purpose
The mule is distinCtively farmers
beast of labor. They cannot be had
in sufficient numbers to do the
work of the United States. The
honest toll he gives made poSsible
the cultivation Of lands. mining,
and thousands of other purposes
and among these are many uses the
mule is put to that no other animal
could be used. In mining and army
uses the mule is put to that which
no other beast could begin to do.
The mule knows more in five
minutes than a horse could learn in
five weeks.
Like the horse, the mule must be
kept in place. If the mule gets to
be boss it is all up with the driver;
but you do not have to abuse him
to be boss. Mules instinctively
avoid all holes and dangerous places

A team of runaway mules general
ly run more for sport than from
fright and they generally always
stop before any danger is done. A
mule is what he is made. Some
people think just because he is a
mule he can be beaten and i'll treat
ed in every way and it makes no
difference. A mule will respond to
good treatment just the same as a
horse, and the most of them like to
be petted. Halt of the perversity
of temper for which he is notorious
comes from poor hsndlinG when
breaking in, or afterwards; for once
antagonized, a mule is remarkably
set in her ways. The marked vari-
ations in their characters ale as

Paris Gas & Electric Co.
The Central Kentucky Company
recently acquired a natural gas fran
chise in Paris. and are anxious to
reach this city as soon as possible.
1t is said that they would much prefer
taking over the gas plant in Paris,
provided that they can do so to adj
vantage. So far as is known, nothing
definite was decided upon at the
meeting last week, and it is not
known whether the natural gas peO-
pie will lay their own mains through
out the city, or will make another eff
fort to take over the Paris gas plant
The present pipe service in the city
would be sufficient for natural gas
and from the fact the purchase of the
plant would save prolonged delay in
laying new mains, it is considered g
good move on the part of the Cen
u al hOuIuChy COLlpdHy IL Iuo ITdue
could be made it would save this
needless delay and the citizens o.
Paris would be supplied with a cheap
er product at much earlier date
than was first expected.
The laying of new mains would
necessitate the tearing up of thu
city's streets and the citizens woul(
suffer to no small degree from THU
inconvenience. 1t is probable defin
ate decision will be reached at al
early date and that work on the pip
line from Clark county will be sool
started.
