This morning a couple of miners were staled on a boulder alongside the road to Stitro. liousiiig the kicaiug powers of the mule. One hail just let ur ned troin Smio and the oihei was on his way there, and hav ing Diet near the rock they sat down f- r a talk. "Have ytu quit over there," said one to the other. Yes." "Why?" "Mules." " 'Fraid tfenj." 'You bet. I saw out yeslerday alongside an old boiler kit-kin' off the rival heads one by one. Never miss ed one." I w a just guia' on shift, ami when l saw the mule aud heard there was more of 'em ipside and I weakened aud threw up my ieb. I've got a wife and three children depen din' on me, aud I don't take no than o s." "The worst mule I ever saw said the other "was in Piooht aome years ago. It was one 1 owned. (Jut day it rubbed against some units slicking tut of a post and it turned square around and drtve those nails in one by one, using a s ngle blow of the hoof with the iron shoes on for each nail. It never missed its liuk and al ways drove theiu into llis head. lhen he saw a few tacka on the post, a little lower down, which were only halt driveu iu, and he drove them in, loo, with light tans ot tht hoof, just as gentle and and easy as could be. One day a man came along a. d set otic a can of nitro glycerine and giaul powder, lit wanted t gel the mult to kick it and get killed. I saw him about the corral with iho can, and knew what was up. At first I was going to stop him, but then 1 thought it ray mule was any kind of mule at all he would take cart ol himself. Well, the initio aaw the can and walking up smell of it, ad squar ed hiunell for the kick. The man was sneaking off, and just us the mule whs going to kick the can he caught sight of the teller and changed his position to that his tail was toward the man. lie lifted his tail just like he was taking aim and let fly his right hoof. The cuu went flying through tht air and bit the mau square in tbe rear just as lit was get ling over a lence about n hundred feel a way. The thing exploded, and I never saw the man again.

IIiw a Newspaper Saved a Han't Life. Chicago Tribune. The tlier night a young man en tered lit u editorial looms and asked to see ti e editor, to whom he said: "A friend ot minessid there was a re n rt going to lie in the pati'i' lo nmr row about a defalcation 'Inn I 4100, 000, he said." Th editor siiliniilled that such wm tie esse. ''Well con linued the young man, 'lht fwlltiw liiut delsulieil was a light and airy young ens, wasn't he ?" The edi tor admitted that such was the tact that the defaulter l.ad a trotting horse and four families aud a big diamond pin, and was known to gamble Irtely, and, altogether that he was a fsl young man. "Precisely," said the visitor. "Now, my father is a gray haired old man, in very feeble health, and tli doctors say that the slightest shock might kill him, and I've called round to" see U ." "I rgrt," said Ire editor, "that it is not in my power to supprsss the news, and even if I did not allow tht item lo ap pear in the Tribune, it would be sine lo come out in the ether papers, and thus. A petition has been numerously j signed al Independence, that the $18 given the town al.oiii three years ago by cuinc khosineii for the pur pose of building a town bull, be now appropriated to the Hook and Lri I Ur coripany.

Mr. James W. Welch, of Astoria, has in his possession two carpenteis tool chests from the wrecked steam ship Great IJepublic, btth filled with tool.

It has breu finally arranged, after (iiuny discussions btlweun ihe taiui- lies, that ih Midgets are to be mar iried. Lucie Zaraie. the nrospuulive bride, is fifteen years old, ami weighs a trifle less than five pounds. Her fact is bright but not prepossessing. The bracelet she wears cannot be buekled around the third finger tf a man tf ordinary size. Her shoes (made to order) 'srs i!J iuuhes long, and her gloves measure about one inch from (he lip tl iht longest tie ger to the bitlton at the wrist. Her cap w s made originally for a doll in a Broadway show window, and ia a good tit. In the matter of jewelry she is profuse. Ou each hand she wears a diamond ring; her brooch is a diamtnd, and slit has a fondness for dangling oi tiaineats on her ears, such, ler instance, as a small diamond supplemented by a California gtld quarter of a dollar. General Milt, whose real nams is Francis J. Flynn, weighs nine pounds aud is 14 years old. His face is blight and intelligent, and his con versation does not belie it. 'Are vou going to marry Lutie ?" the reported asked him. "Yes, we are going lo be married." "When ?" "Next Saturday a week." "No," iotori tinted tht female dwarl, "next Sunday. I want it ou Sunday." It seems that the marriage is one of uonvenienct as well at supposed affection. Tht d waifs belonging to different families, are liable to be separated at any moment. It is thought best, therefore, in bind tbem by tits that canno: be broken by show managers or disagreeing parlies. General Mile is twice tht weight ol hit prospective bride. The preparations for the wedding art going steadily forward. The biido is lo wear a whi e satin dress studded with seed pearls. Small as her ftrni is, it it estimated that thu bridal dress contains no less than 1,- 000 pearls. The bridegroom is to wear his full dress suit, excepting that his vtst of black cloth will be lepltaed with n white vest. Mist Zaratt btliugt lo the Episco pal church, wbilo General Mile's fami ly are lioman Catholics, and it was on the question of religion that the families differed. This difference was finally settled. 1 Sample of Ihe Testimony luken at tbe Talmngc Trial. From the Oil City Derrick. Tht interest iu thu Talmage trial increases laster than interest on a bank note.

After waiting patiently for about an hour, ho approached au in dividual with a red scarf ant a slouch hat, who stood smoking a queer cigar at th entrance, and said: "Cau you tell me, sir, if Miss Chloroline has gone home yet ?" .

What li Seen from r ike's Peak. , Stmt curious naiinal pl.momena art witnessed from Iho summit of Pike's Peak. Electric stomis art so remarkable that those who bavt wit nessed them art eloquent at to tbtir splendor. Lit lit thunder accompa nies them; but tho whole mountain seems to be on lire and lhtte ont sheet tf flame. Electricity comet out tf every rock, and darts here and there with indiecribabla radianct. An observer says that it played around him continuously, shot dowu his bnek, glanced out of bis feet, and so completely filled him that ht bt en me charged like a Ltydtn jar. IU could not retain his foothold; bo bounded and rebounded from tbe rocks after tht manner of an India rubber ball; be felt at though a powerful! battery were throbbing and thrilling through hit frame, and, fearing consequences, ho hurried into ibe signal station. The signtl officers siati mad at tht Ptak stt tomt won 1)01 tul sights, and il they had as muth imagination and rhttorio as they have patience and ptwtr ot observa lion, they could furnish soma very vivid descriptions of what they wit ness. Several men of science who watched elcctrit storms Irom tbt top tf the mountain, think the phtnomtna the grainiest and most imposing, and that t hoy can hardly be surpassed snywhere. Tbe peak commands a mountainous rcgicn, containing many lakes, and tbe sources of four frest rivers the Platte, Arkansas, .io Grand and Colorado of Califor nia. Imagine that broad, picturesque extent kindled and glowing with electricity, and ytu have an ideal picture of sublimity which uo pctt has begun to paint. N. Y. Tribune. Warriors of the Su.
