Mules Walk to Death
Puzzles Veterinarians

DnnviIle, Ky. - A mule belonging
to Mrs. Lille Condor, of the Rolling
Fork neighborhood, became afflicted
with a strange disease and died a
mysterious death. the cause of which
veterinarians have been unable to ac-
count for. The animal was discover
ed in a pasture constantly walking,
but neither eating nor drinking. He
was keeping a steady gait and could
not be frightened sufficiently to make
him run. This hybrid was taken to a
barn lot and there he continued to
walk. Finally he was fastened in a
small stall and for time he merely
lifted his feet up and then put them
down again. This he continued but a
short time. when he pushed the planks
loose and extricated himself, only to
resume his walking in the lot No
feed would tempt him to stop; no
coaxing would induce him to cease
travelling. Finally he fell over dead.

AT the moment when the fire of
Slavic hatred coming from the four
corners of Russia is developing into
