It happened that a company f the ex-Confederates inarched in the name procession and loyal to the "lost cause" tliey floated the tare and bars in the brccxe. Gen. rainier, commander-in-chief of the C.

The order Ls couched in Midi manly terms and is so full ol truth and wisdom that it can hardly give ollense. The action of the commander-in-chief is to be commended.

The jrovernuienta of Germany and Austria-Hungary hare just signed a similar treaty, to continue for twelve years, by which the agricul tural products ot the latter may be interchanged with the manufac tures of the former on mutually favorable terms.

Every little while there rises to the surface out of the disgraceful and buried past some ghastly relic af the barbarism nnd degradation that were the natural results and uccoinpriuiments of slavery. One of the moat curious of these is brought to light by a decision just handed down in Missouri by the court of appeals. Kda Hickman was aalave of Joseph Hickman of Manitou county, Missouri. 3 When the slaves were eiuaucipatedHick- man wai so located and managed the associations of the girl Eda in such a way that she did not learn that she was no longer a 'bond woman and for twenty-five years her former owner kept ac knowledge of the emancipation from her and made her work upon his fawn. When the woman finally dis covered the truth as to the infu. i:ioua conduct of Hickman, she left it in and sect-ring raper advice began suit against him for wages for the tweuty-.ive years' work, fixing the naiount at $1,300. The first tiUl resulted in n verdict oi S"x) for the woman, but the case was canied to the circuit court by which thcdecisicti of the lower court v.ms reversed. The frieuds of the woman, how ever, carried the case t, fan court of appeals, and that tribunal has just reversed the deciuion of the. civ-nit ro-.jet n-vl rft'vdo.l ()-. ca . for a now t, lal.

They have thus become known very generally as Lille rat mules, aud the description is a pood one certainly. Mauy of. them don't look much larger than a good sized billy goat, being ho small that they are hidden from the people in the car by the dash board in frojit. It certainly docs look cruel to make them pull a car loaded down with people, a load that would strain powerful horses on an up grade. It is lika a great many other, things, however. It is cruel only in appennnce. The little mule is equal to tiiis and mnch more. If t he car would hold more peo ple he and his mate would pull it any place, and on a level would take it skip ping along ho fast that you would almost begin to think no other motive power was required to realize rapid transit. lie has endurance, speed and strength, and thrives where an animal more hardy and stronger in appearance would soou die.
