surely would be more thankful
for small favors in good old
Nebraska. But customs and
common practice make conditions
meet demands in all countries
aud climes. And we pass on
with noiseless tread for this
great machine has very little to
say , unless you get it angry. In
this it is quite different from
many people , strictly tending to
its own business , carrying us on
to our destination.
After perhaps twenty minutes
ride , we stop a little while to see
the great Storage Canal and
watch the many Mexicans at
work with their small teams
taking the dirt from the bottom
of the big ditch , drawing it to
the outside , banking it up as a
levee to insure a refuge for the
water against breaking over , and
also giving capacity lor a large
volume and storage supply of
water.
This company is preparing
a large pumping plant where
this canal intersects the Rio
Grande river , equipped with one
of the largest ami best pumps
made for this purpose and will al
all times keep a volume of water
in the canal sufficient to float
barges from one end to the other.
The water in this will be from
12 to 18 feet deep. After ex
planations regarding this canal
and the utility of it in this arid
country , by our chaperon , Mr.
Phillips , we made back for the
automobile to see if it was still
there , as we noticed when we
left it that the fellow that had a
name I can neither read or spell ,
never tried , just seemed to choke
it down and shut off its wind ,
and I was fearful the thing
might be dead when we got backer
or so full of hot air it might be
busted , for I have already told
you it was hot and so embrella
closer than the car. But luck
was with us on this occasion.
Just as soon as that fellow twist
ed the things nose a little it com
menced to breath and struggle a
little , all concluded it might get
to bucking or jumping stiff leg
ged again and we had better
jump iu or there might be
another catastrope of sitting
down when we wanted to set up.
But the thing never acted iu the
least stubborn or sulky. I sup
pose one reason was it was going
toward home. You know some
times mules will do this way. I
had a demonstration of this
here in Brownsville this morning.
I was going along the beautiful
paved sidewalks early , going to
see the ma'rket place as I wanted
to find out if I though it would
be agreeable , palatable or neces-
LU luuiuuu in
pastime endeavoring to familiar
isje myself trying to masticate a
Mexican beef steak at breakfast
time or not , and what do you
suppose I encountered right on
this beautiful paved sidewalk ,
and standing crosswise too ? At
first I-thought it was a Texas
jack rabbit , as I saw it had ears
like one , but I noticed its tail
was different , and I kept on
noticing aud going on as I
thought the fool thing would
surely get off of the sidewalk and
let a stranger pass on but no sir ,
it never budged an inch , neither
could I persaude nor drive the
stubborn thing off of these
beautiful side walks , aud here I
was all aloue and what was I
going to do. I never had given
the sidewalk to a Mexican mule
and I made up my mind not to
this time , unless I had to , and
just then I happened to think of
the two accident tickets I had
I said , well , I am safe anyhow ,
and I just made a grab for that
stubborn , impudent , long cared ,
unmanned } ' , insulting Mexican
donkey mule's tail and gave a
yank and said kind a loud , "see
here , you Mexican brute , will you
listen ! I'm from Nebraska , "
and he just reached out for a
shake and just as good as said ,
I'm from Brownsville , Texas , and
I said "good morning Mr.
Brownsville" and stepped off of
the beautiful sidewalk and pass
ed on and said to myself , its no
use to monkey with a mule when
they get stubborn.
As I was walking along ponder
ing over the dilemma I had jusl
been delivered from , the thought
struck me very forcibly that per
haps this Mexican donkey mule
was on the sidewalk trying to
wake up the chief boss of the
water works system , as this
might be the hour when he was
due to commence service on one
of the two wheel carts hauling
water from the river for cit )
purposes , and would bring one
more demonstration to the notice
of Dr. Gibson of some more oi
this drawn work. Now those
Kansas fellows may try to make
you believe this mule story is not
the truth , but 'tis a fact just the
same , if I can't prove it.
