The Fable of the
Two Mules.

Zone of them had horse sense.)
Once upon time ON hot summer s
day two mules found themselves pen
ned in a pasture which contained only
a meager supply of water; and that
very warm AMI braekish.
One of the mules, being something
of a philosopher, could force himself
to drink said water but the other mule
voiced his protest loud and long. He
cried that he wished he was down in
the village square where he could re-
fresh himself at the trough, which con
tanned water both cool and clear. His
rawlings finally exhausted the patience
of mule No. and the following en-.
sued:
First mule: "You know the way to
town, don't your
Second mule: eyes. -
First mule: "You can still jump a
fenceg'
Second mule: Yes. -
First mule: "And you won t be
satisfied unless you can drink at tn,
trough down in the yillage'"
Second mule: "No. -
First mule: "Well, for the love Of
Mike, why don't you jump over this
fence, go down to thc village and ge'
a dring of water for yourself?"

RIOT JURY URGES RACE SEPA.
RATION BY AGREEMENT.
Troubles Here Laid to Hoodlums-
Younger Police Urged.
From Chicago Tribune)


Race segregation by agreement is
one solution of Chicago's race prob
lem that is advanced in the report
Of the coroner's jury which investi-
gated the race riots, made public
yesterday. Quick punishment of the
guilty, regardless Of color, also is
urged as remedy.
The report, which Coroner Hoff-
taan will present to the county board
with the request that it be printed
and distributed throughout the city,
IS based on testimony by 450 wit
nesses, which resulted in twenty men
being held TO the grand jury on
charges of murder and manslaughter.
Accompanying is a sworn state
ment by the coroner, which fixes the
number of race riot deaths at thir-
ty-eight-f.fteen white and TWEEN
ty-three colored persons. The coro-
ner states this is done TO set at rest
IunlOio anu itpciNo VI a Hi"NH "a SCI
toll
Isolation as Unrest Cure.
Concerning race segregation, the
report says:
IF the movement of the colored
people to white neighborhoods was
an invasion it was necessary in
vasion, because of the deplorable liv-
ing conditions. The correction of the
evil by charging living quarters and
placing them in better sanitary
state would in part solve the diff
Guilty. We believe voluntary segre-
cation would follow and to a con-
extent remove one cause
of unrest. This is matter that
might be considered by the real es-
tate board; by Improvement clubs
and organizations of property own
ers on the south side, and by the
health department"
In separate signed statement
the Rev. J. p. Brushingham, one of
the jurors, personally champions seq
regation by agreement. Let the
leaders of both peoples come togeth-
er and for the general good agree
70 dwell apart" he urges.
