MULE HAS HANDLED 100000
BARRELS RUM

Beck, grey mule, %, credited with
having pulley-lifted 100000 barrels
to ricks at the M, M. Bowling dis
tillery, at Lawrenceburg, is to be re-
tired because there are no more bar
rels to be ricked. She has claimed
local note for reasons other than
that she has handled more whisky
probably than any living animal.
For years before prohibition. she
was known for two marked eccen-
tricities. When the whistle would
blow for dinner, Beck would stop
dead in her tracks, and wouldn't
pull a pound more until fed. Then
the whistle stopped, but the mule
showed every day the superhuman
sense of knowledge when twelve
o'clock came and continued to stop
short. Another eccentricity is that
she has never abided a driver. A
plank is placed at the point she is
TO stop, and when she reaches it she
braces for the tow-over, and then
obeys the command to lease up"
Beck believes in a short day and it
is said that her remarkable auto
matte service ends as abruptly and
as stubbornly at o'clock as it
pauSes at noon.
