There was a larcce gathering in Marj-sville, Cal., and all "vvere inter ested in the efforts of a yonth who was persuadinr a mule. The voting man. the Appeal says, kicked the mule's ribs, struck resounding whacks on the mule s hido witu a lieavy trace and twisted the mule's ears. The mule stood firm. "Twist his tail.5 Scratch his heels," "Tickle his hind legs," shouted the bystanders. The driver now seized the bridle and tried with all his might to haul tho mule forward into wlace, but the mule con tinued firm, while the driver was still tugging at the bridle, Mr. Bow ser, who understands mules, chanced to pass. "Haul the other way," said Mr. Howser. 4rWhy so?" asked the driver. U4Because it's a mule," he re plied. The driver hauled tlie other way, and the mule immediately went ahead.
