Apparently this young donkey always
showed the greatest interest in the
concerts which were held regularly in

As soon us the music began, the donkey
approached the window and showed
quite plainly whether the pieces given
were to his taste or not.
He was found Of simple music and
showed Impotence at elaborate ef-

was to hear the mistress Of the house

On a low hill about 1000 feet from

five low wooden buildings surround

more recently. They are all privates
