The GEORGIA MULE
IN THE Big WAR
THE FAITHFUL ANIMAL IS IN
THE MIDST OF POWDER AND
SHOT IN EUROPE.
MOST DEPENDABLE OF TROOPS
And Deserves to Be Decorated With
the Kaiser's Iron Crosses. Price
of Mules Has Advanced Since the
Beginning of HOstilities.


Georgia is we'll represented in the
European war by several thousand
faithful soldiers, fighting with the al
lies and the dual alliance. The GeOr-
gia soldier is the Georgia mule, an
indispensable adjunct to every army.
Dispatches fro mthe front tell of
one incident where heavy siege guns
were stalled in the mud and neither
horses nor motor trucks could pull
them out. An ordnance officer sent
to the rear for a team or two of
American mules, and when they
threw their weight into the collar
the guns came out of the mud.
Ever since the war broke out the
price of mules has been going up de-
spite the difficulty in making ship
ments. 1t has been the same in all
wars. The great Boer-English con-
fict took thousands of long-eared
plow-pullers out of Georgia cotton
fields.
The mule has one great advantage
in war time. He does not bother his
mulish head about noise or smoke.
He goes wherever he is told while
horses are driven half mad by the ex-
element and the smell of powder
and blood The kaiser should save
a few of his Iron Crosses for his most
dependable troops, the American

Father Was Away

Father Was Away
The father, ]. r. Cleyenger, is q
Santa Fe engineer. He left home at
an early hour this morning TO take his
regular run to albuquerque. He was
communicated with by telegraph and
notified Of the tragedy. Mr.. eleven
ger arrived today on train No 10.
A Pathetic Scene
The scene in the Clevenger homo
was highly pathetic when Mrs. Clev-
enger was being borne away from the
bodies Of the two children whom she
had slain, A bright fire was burning
in the base burner and the children's
shoes were neatly arranged before the
stove. The home was as tidy and
neat as one could wish to see, with
the exception Of the bloody bed room.
The children's bodies, entirely cover
ed by blankets, were not visible until
tender hands lifted the little bodies
and placed them in the receiving cas-
kets. The poor, distracted mother ap-
parently did not realize the enormity
of the offense she had committed, ana
perhaps the Almighty. looking down
in pity upon her, does not call her %
account.
Had Been Seriously i'll
Mrs. Cleyenger has been i'll for sew
eral months. About a year ago she
was in a hospital for a long time. Her
friends and relatives have been fear
full for some time that suffering might
cause her to take her own life. Ac-
cordingly all poisonous medicines and
weapons We're hidden in the basement.
Mrs. Tripp, kindly old lady, mother
of George Tripp, railway conductor,
has stayed with the woman much Of
the time recently. She appeared to
be better able to soothe the woman
than any one else Last night was
the first occasion that Mrs, Tripp has
not stayed at the Clevenger home dur
ing the absence Of Mr. Clevenger for
some time She deeply lamented today
that she had failed to be n companion
to Mrs. Clevenger last night. Mrs. Clev-
ger last night accompanied Mrs. Tripp
to the Methodist church. When the
two parted Mrs. Clevenger apparently
was rational
