MADISON REMAINS
cry BY ONE VOTE

The city of Madison will stay dry
by one vote. On an official recount OF
the ballots cast in the wet and dry
referendum last spring under direc-
ton of Judge E. Ray Stevens of the
circuit court, it was found that 1885
votes were cast for a dry town and
1886 for a wet one.
So madison remains dry by one vote.
Close shave.

It was politics; Q personal score against individuals; game to create vacan- cies to advance favorites; a piece of sharp practice; a revolutionary heresy Also, it was little less than cruelty to animals and undeniably some horses were doomed to suffer burdens beyond their capacity. Lastly, they said that Roosevelt himself could not undergo the test.
 Tt is not of record that Roosevelt ever failed to accept a challenge. But he was then a busy man. and so he de- cided to do the job all in one day and be done with it. He sent for me one night and asked that I take the trip with him.
 We started from the White House early next morning on good, sound dependable mounts, heading south into Virginia. The day broke with a dis agreeable compound of drizzling rain. sleet and snow, accompanied by a chill wind that crept into the very crevices of a mans vitals. This steadily in- creased until the day ended in the worst rains -sleet-snow wind storm ever have faced. Roosevelt not only did not complain but apparently gave no heed to it.

ROOSEVELT BRAVED
 STORM ON A DARE
fPhVsicaI Cnltllrel

Admiral Cary T. Grayson. physical and naval aid to President Wilson, re- counts the story of his famous ride with Colonel Roosevelt.
 Tt was in the winter of 1908 1909 that President Roosevelt resolved to employ some effective measures for weeding out the physically unfit in the army. Horseback riding had been so much of the colonels life that he recognized it's possibilities in determin- ing physical fitness, so, that, although walking and bicycle riding were in- cluded, the major test was based on a horseback ride of ninety miles, to be covered in relays of thirty each for three consecutive days.
 Roosevelt asked me if it were a reasonable test for physical qualifica- tion. l told him that if any officer could not ride thirty miles a day for three days in succession, he was unfit for duty
 Immediately afterwards Roosevelt issued a presidential order calling upon all military officers to submit them selves to this test. There followed a near riot among a certain over-fed. under exercised class of officers as well as frantic storm of protest which found it's way into print under front page headlines.
 Tt was an impossible order, they

impossible. Certainly no man would have selected such q day or road for anything less than a case of life and death. However, in spite of the worst of it, Roosevelt seemingly enjoyed it more perhaps because he was fighting against odds.
 Thus we covered the fifty-th miles to Warrenton, Va, where we had a midday meal and started on tAR re- turn trip.
 Now, I want to say. as physician. and also as one who has experienced rough going and violent freaks of weather both on land and sea, that if ever there was a time when a man s vitality would have been worn down by physical stress, strain and the beat l ing, exhausting effect of storm, that was the day and the occasion. 'The nature of the storm may be | judged by the fact that when we re- l turned to the White House. Roosevelt i took off his ice covered sombrero | turned it upside down on a table and
 pulled the hat from out the shell of l ice, which left it a perfect replica of | his headgear-a hat of ice, which he | displayed with due sense of pride as l a souvenir of a three days task done ! in one, and that day one of such sever ity as he would not have asked any
 officer to face in the schedule of his
 test.

Great American Mule in
Thrilling War Exploits

1t would appear that the mule is
distinctively an American product.
There are, of course, mules abroad,
but they are not real mules in our
sense. "The companionship of the
negro and the climate of the South
ern States" says an authority on this
subject, "to say nothing of the south
ern portion of the Central states, are
required to bring the mule to his full
development"
Missouri is the greatest mule rails
ing state of the union. More and
finer animals are reared in this Sec
ton of the country than anywhere
else on earth, and East ST. Louis IS
the greatest mule market of tho
world.
Two Main Glasses.
Roughly speaking, mules are d.
vided into two classes, the cotton
and the sugar mule. The latter is the
better grade, the huge, we'll built an
imals which are used on the sugar
plantations of the far south, while
the cotton mules are smaller and
more adapted for use in the cotton
fields.
Mules have also figured largely in
our wars, but the American mule
abroad has not been so successfully
employed, for the reason it has been
said by officers, that his darky driver
was not hired along with him. During
the present European war, however,
considerable use has been made OF
the American mule. =,
A Confederate veteran used to tell
how he lost his cavalry mount IN the
fighting around Chattanooga. Later
he obtained a mule for a mount and
the mule got it's baptism of fire IN the
fighting at Chickamauga.
Now it was a peaceful mule and
nothing louder than the sounds OF
the farm had ever assaulted its ears
until that day at Chickamauga.
The Mule Retreats.
The company was ordered to
charge through a wood. There had
been q good deal of firing all morn
ing. but the mule, beyond pricklng
up its ears, paid no attention to It,
However, when the company got into
the woods the firing was closer and
the mule did not appear to relish 1t
at ALL Then some shells began dropp-
ing about the company. Whereat the
mule wheeled and started for the
rear.
The narrator never forgot that. He
could not turn the mules head to-
ward the front and he could not stop
it. He did make it pause once OF
twice, and all the time the bullets
and shells were dropping, and every
one was yelling with laughter as the
company passed the man and the
mule. The rider jerked branch
from a tree and beat the mule, but
that had no effect on it.
The mule started galloping IN the
opposite direction and its rider could
not stop under half mile. Then the
stop was only momentary, for the
mule merely paused long enough to
pitch it's rider over its head. Then
the mule went on it's way. He never
saw her again. Smarting with hui
initiation, he made his way back
through the woods and finally re-
Joined his company.
