Somo I'eriitinrities Which Make the Aul mul tlie Most Interesting Specimen of Ills Race Ho May lie Indolent, but II IiiduNtrioiikly 1'uya Old Scores. The Mexican mule is a sort of cross between a mountain goat and a flying squirrel, with the distinct dilFerence that its surplus electricity flows olF from the iie";ati e iole itistead of the positive, as with the Koat. It is in its meanderings on the mountain trails that it shines re splendent, but with a luster wholly its own, that can no more be compared with any other than can the flash of the dia mond be compared wilii the fire of the opal. A DLOOD CUUDLIXQ WAY. On the mountain trail this distinct BKcies of mule was never known to fall, although ho has an exasperating and blood curdling way of stumbling along over it that would raise the hair on end of a bald bonded man. Many a time I have watched the inulo I was compelled to ride with a view of discovering his methods of trying to searo mo to death, as payment for past injuries. Often times the trail would lead past dizzy heights or elilTs, where one could look sheer down far enough to be dead'before he reached the bottom should he fall, and every few feet along the trail, of a foot to a foot and a haif in width, it would have tumbled in a foot or so and again taken up the original inclination of the mountain, or a!out that of the leaning tower of Pisa. Here the mule would always be sure to stick one foot and stumble a iiitle bit, but always re gain its equilibrium at the next step, having clearly done it intentionally, and for no other purpose than pure cussed ness. One can imagine the cool Alpine zephyr that is waited up the dorsal vertebras with suflicient forco to blow the hair straight up on end. If you have touched the beast during the last three or four days with the whip or dug into its sides with the spurs when it va3 absorbed in melancholy reflec tions, it will be sure to remember it when you are climbing over the comb of a cliff 3.000 feet high, and at the least move ment of your feet or twitching of your lingers it will throw its bead high in the air like a bound on the scent and go stumbling over every pebble and blade of grass on the dangerous way, evidently trying to make you regret that you had tried to punish so delicate a creature. At any other time you can turn double somersaults on its back, or act like a rav ing maniac, and it will not increase its funereal march a foot a day as a result of j-our actions. Whenever a trail leads exceptionally near a clilf, before it turns on the reverse grade down or up hill, the Mexican mule never fails tq gq withiq an inch of the crest and let a hind leg over with a slight quiver as it turns around. A 11 these mountain trails are full of little, round, "hard stones about the size of mar bles and larger, hidden underneath a par? peting pf pine, needles. These are liable to make a mule stumble if two feet are on stones at once; but this is very rare, although they always go eliding over them on the steeper trails. It is wonderful how these rotund rocks, hidden under the pine needles on the trail or off of it, will throw a human be o - 2 .2 . 3 2 o O O CI o Is o T. - 2 o 4-3 3 o l -1 O Oh O s-. so Bj V 9 i 7 wess Mi psai -bsJ ts S 'SB "3 n mi h- -i 4 s c 3 3. -Z o 5 o r- a. . 5 &H3 U mm mm m 5S i 9 -ZZ O s n 't a 'a o s 6 A ts WtA ai f- J ' 55 51 g u ft 2 8 H "i -2 t S g 5 " N fj a S 5 w -rf ' in I. ing illustrate if lie dismounts a it w min utes to take a v.-iilk c:t a slope and stretch his stiffened limLs. Of course the nut! , under headway, walks over them be.'oro it can stop. Hobnails in fIio-s, nor anything of man's make, help to avoid them. A PLr.ASANT PASTIME. There Li another pastime in which the Mexican mule delights, and in which you won't. It likes to devtato enough to go under every low branched tree on the trail, and so universal is this trait of character that the trail seems to lead from one low treo or vine to another, just as the mules seem a inind to make it. The dodging of limbs and branches among the pines, cypresses and oaks in the highlands was not 6o bad, but down in tho tierras calientes, or hot lands, where brambly mosquito and thorny vines were tearing crescents out of your clothes until you looked like a group of Turkish ensigns, it was much more monotonous. f ho beast I was compelled to ride bad one ear cut off near the head and looked topheavy i:i t!:f ftr. :.;o. n:;.L't. ears make up a goodly portion of it, as seen m elevation from the saddle on its back, I was always frightened when he approached a cliff on the unabridged side and instinctively leaned in to counter poise tho heavy weight that I thought might drag us over the precipice. He was familiarly known by the party as "Old Steamboat," "Old Lumber Yard," and other names indicating his charac teristics, but he was lare and so was I, and he fell to my lot. When I first saw his abbreviated auricular appendage, as a member of the society for the prevention of cruelty to mules, I felt incensed when I beard that it had been lost by the cut of a whip in the hands of a previous dri ver; but before we had been acquainted a week I had transferred till my sympa thy from the mule to the man, whoever he may have been. On the level ground he was slower than the cook, who took fifteen minutes to wash a spoon, but on a perilous path of a half a foot in width u a dizzy precipice the way lie could liox the compass with the lone ear, so as to catch some faint sound at which he could get frightened at this inopportune time, made me wish I could cut off the other ear at the third cervical vertebra?.

The case j has been proved. When it was about half its present height a few men actually did lift it. This is not humbug; the thing is perfectly simple. The construc tion of the tower is based on the canti lever principle, and its bulk of G.400 tons is so adjusted as to press on tho founda tion with less weight than that of a man in an armchair on the floor. Is the tower beautiful? No. I5ut it has the erect, fragile looking elegance of an obelisk not hewn out of red granite, but knit of dark hued meshes.
