A Gin nt Georgia Negro Does the W ork of a Mule. “ Satan nt last In harness” should not be construed as meaning that the cloven hoof individual who figures most con spicuously in Dante's Inferno has been suddenly halted in his travels to and fro on this earth. The Satan here re ferred to is Sam Satan, a giant negro, of Dougherty County, Georgia, who al lowed himself to be hitched to a plow and did the work of his deceased mule. Sam had owned a mouse-colored mule for a number of years, hut hard work had hurried It to the bone factory, and money was not plentiful with Sam, and Just how he should do the plowing in Ids field worried him very much, lie saw nothing else to do but to take tlie mule’s place in the harness, and let Ids wife do the driving.

HE CRACKS A WHIP. B u t H e Is a P h e n o m e n a l A r t is t In th e Use o f th e Lasli. A decided sensation has been created iu Vienna by a man who probably stands alouo in the world in his particular line of performance. This gentleman's name is Piskslug, and he is an Austro-Hun garian by birth. He is uu expert, or, rather, a phenomenal artist, iu the use of the whip. The first thing he does is to take a long lashed, stout handled whip iu each hand, and, with orchestral accompani ment, proceed to crack or snap them at a terrific rate. The sound made by his whips in this manner is graduated from a noise like a rifle report to the soft click of a billiard ball. It makes a curious sort of music and serves to show how he can regulate the force of each stroke. More interest, however, is evinced when he eeizes a vicious looking whip with au abnormally long lash. It is pro vided with a very heavy handle of medi um length. This is his favorite toy, and what lie can do with it is really won derful He first gives an idea of what fearful force there lies in a whip lasli iu the bauds of uu expert. A large frame, over which is stretched a calf or sheep skin, is brought on the stage. This is marked with dots of red paiut. The man with the whip steps up, and, swinging the lash round bis head, lets fly at the calfskin. With every blow he actually pulls a piece right out from the leather, leaving 11 clean cut hole. These pieces are distributed among the audience to show that there is no trickery about the performance. After this he takes a frame with three shelves. On these there are a dozen or more of medium sized apples lying very close to gether and provided with large numbers. Any one iu the audience may desiguate SAM SATAN IN THE PLOW- which apple he wishes struck, and the mule, and did the work in a masterly unerring lash snatches it out like a flash. A still more difficult feat is the snap manner that created jealousy among ping of coins from a narrow necked tlie mules of the comity. Satan is seven feet tall ami ns strong bottle.

Saved Twenty-tive Hornes. When Mr. Leicht, of the Paepcke- Lelcht Lumber Company, paid $25 for Jock, a Scotch collie, he little thought the dog would pay for itself a hundred times over ami save property worth $.1.000. Such, however, is the fact, and had it not been for the sagacity of Jock twenty-five horses belonging to Mr. Leiclit’s firm would have lost their live« in the tire which partially destroy ed its lumber-yard on Tuesday night. Tlie horses were in a stable iu the rear o f the building in which the tire was discovered, and though the night watchman cut their halters they would not leave the building. Jock seemed to understand the situation, and, rush ing into the stalls, drove the animals out one by one. lie harked ami bit at the heels of the frightened animals, and did better work than a score of men. One of the animals after he was outside ran hack into the burning sta ble and was followed by Jock. But the efforts of the dog were of no avail; the horse was •’tire mad" and was burned to death. Jock is four yeai*s old and is the nightly companion of Watchman Arndt. The dog discovered the fire and hy harking attracted the atten tion of the watchman. When his work of rescue was complete he took up a position by the yard gate, and neither streams o f water nor showers of sparks would dislodge him from his place. Jock is of pure Scotch breed, and, ac cording to his owner, Tuesday night’s occurrence was not the first exhibition o f Intelligence above the ordinary. Sev eral times he has driven suspicious characters away from the yards, and woe to the tramp who tries to turn a lumber pile into a lodging-house.—Chi cago Tribune.
