nel, tho trips consist of anywhere from
twenty to thirty cars, the trips are
pulled to tlie tunnel mouth by a string
of niillis. From here to the bieakor is
a ileseendiiiM; ftradi. and a single mule
is used to deliver (he cars to that point.
This mule, on lipming the rumbling; or

On its nciiier approach the inure

than to start them from a standstill.
The driver merely atliiehos tho mule's

A mulo which I greatly adiuiiod was
a i lean-limbed young jenny who was
tho leader in a team of elKht, used hi a
Ioiir underKinuud haul In a miiio near
Tamafiia. Hho had the weakness of her
sex in beiiiK extremely vain and sits
coptildo to (lattery. Hlio would toss her
head and prance around qulvoriiif,- with
delight when her master spoke to or
petted her. I think ihe diiver was
equally proud of his little loader from
tho en in and attention ho bestowed
upon her. And lie should he, for, to a
certain extent, the driver's life depend
ed upon the luielllKonce of his head
mule. Should the leader stumble or
take a wiouk road In traveling- the In
tricate road In tho dark, which they did
at no mean speed, small chances of (lit
driver escaping; being crushed In the
pile-up of mules and cars which would
bo bound to follow.

l.t was marvelous tho manner In
vhieh sho wuuld pick out the right
oad. 1 hud visited the mines :v dozen
lines before I wits bine I ei.uld follow
ho fcume ipute. Ho. many branches
ml side roads, and all turnhn-s look
like In a mine, but tho little mule
lover innile a mistake. At ti low
n iiUUe trud). the driver she would
ntnrt pulling Ilka nmil until she had
all the rest or the mulc3 pulling nd
the tilp lu motion, then her pulling
was uer, Khn set the. pace and led
tin way. That wiic nil that was re
united of her. Hhe knew when they
had leached the end of their Journey,
the place where they would bo tin
hltrlipd. and where to a nicety to turn
around In a somewhat narrow space,
so all the mules would have room to
turn In, then without a word of com
mand proceed to where the trip to he
pulled out wax standing, In fuel, all
the drivel did wu to hitch and unhitch
the team. The lltlllo leader directed
everything e.ue.
Drlveis of Individual mutes have
more time as a rule to spend on the
education or their animals. 1 leinem
her one mulo who when ho had pulled
the car In as Tar as lie could go with
It. on being unhitched and led back
of K, would- push It the row remaining
feet with It's breast. The same mule
would be left attached to a car while
his dt Ivor went a couple of hundred
yards off to set a switch. On his
whistling (I could barely distinguish
It) the mule would stint out with the
cur unattended, lie would search your
1 nckets fur something good to rt,
sIpiiI your handkerchief, at a word of
cominand from the driver mounted a
Ibit truck which was standing there,
piey hide mid seek, Ills master going
and hiding and tli-u whlntllng, when
the mule would hunt liliu up.
AVIIi:i:i.S SMDINfJ.
I have seen individual mules In pull
ing a trip of loaded ears hesitate and
look around: the driver poelvlng Its
actions would stop the trip, run back
and remove a sprag from one nf the
wheels, the sprag having accidentally
been overlooked and allowed to remain
in Hie wheel. The mulo had detected
the fin t that one pair or wheels out of
a dozen or more were being slid along
the rail. He was accustomed to pull
ing a certain load; on any Increase be
wanted to know what it was. The
driver told mo that (lie mule always
detected the sprag before he did, and
look this method of notifying him of
its plesence.
Mules sonn come to understand what
is in a man's dinner can. ami once they
have been Ted from one. they become
regular thieves. Very slick and cun
ning (hey me in their efforts to get
at the contents. They will wait until
no one is minimi, and If a can is In
sight nose around it until they have
the lid off, when they quickly appro
priate the contents. Coal Trade Jour
