The Mulo Vindicated
.Mi. Adolf Mitio, in Ins lectin 0 betoie the
lliilhon Club, siji, the following kind w ouls
of mules: "We litle bivn Hini inulis for
ycais, ai il have found out that the aie toler
ably good annuals: but thcie l il piejudicc
against mulls, tliougli they aie veij intelli
gent. I think that I could vuite a chapter on
their ti uts, its I bavi) bad vciy cxttnsive ex
perience, with tbeiu. It has been said that
they havoastioug piopensity for kicking; I
bavc never seen tliem kick when ill the tun
nel, "I hey beiomo veiy tame when under
ground; in fact, they beennio the minus' pets.
The men become, tpiite attached to them; and
as tho shift mules pas along hi the iucu.it
lunch, the will often iciciio fiom one a piece
of pic and fiom anothei a cup of coffee, etc.
When a signal is given to tire a blast the
limits iiiitlrist.mil the signal, and willtiytn
get out of the via of it just as the men do.
Of corn sc, underground it is very dark, and
the ii.ules become so Mcustomcd to the daik
ness that even when tiny go out into the sun
light the cannot see veiy will, ami whtn
tliov go back fiom tho sunlight into tho mine
they eaunot see at all. So vv o are in the hab
it of covering one c c, w ith a piece of cloth
wlienovtr they go out, mid keep the covering
over the eve when the go into the tunnel
again; wc then leiuove the cloth, so they have
ono good eye to see with. Wo had to adopt
this plan for pi cserving their sight, because
tho mule is sc stubborn that he will not pull
unless ho cm see his via) ahead. We have
found out another thing ab ut mules. Wo
tritd holies at lir-t, but wc found tint when
ever an thing touched the uus of a horse ho
would throw up his htad and buak his skull
agiinst tlio nvi i hinging lock; but if jou touch
a mule's e.us lie drops his head. Tor that rca
