The Georgia Mule.
■JfY PAUL TALTNOK.
O uiulcf
Thou jjuunt. gray, gawky Gatling
On fours! Thou lank,embodied ii”
streak.
All hail!
(Be careful, muses, of his heels )
Thy drooping ears ami languid eyes,
Most subtle beast, might well breed
dence.
But thou shalt not obliquely launch thy
heels
At me, thou wily rogue!
Great Scott!
Now I have sometimes seen the unwary
youth
Of African descent hoisted heavenward.
Contorted, writhing, by thy merciless
hoot!
Then thou wonld’st turn thy luring,
blinking eye
To gaze upon thy melancholy work,
Or lure with basilisk glance some victim
new.
O mule!
Star maker!
Dealer in pyrotechnic novelties
Thou verily art loaded, c
primed
From early morning till the steps
Of dewy dusk imprint the sky with stars.
I would not draw within
The magic circle of thy cognizant heels
For all the yellow gold White county
yields,
Or silkrt freights that hither switn from
Ind—Dooly Vindicator.

CARL DUNDER.
He Delivers a Fine Address to the Chil
dren of America.
Dear Shildren: You vhas all right
Doan’ let somebody make you belief
dot you daon’ haf some good times. It I
could pe some shilds again 1 kick oop
my heels like a bird and doan’ care
lor nopody. I shall nefer be shmall
again, und wear some knee-breeches
und play horse mit de broom stick’
und when I reflect on dot I feels some
lump in my throat.
Vhen a man comes along und says
he vhas glad he vhasn’ some shildrens
anymore doan’ pelief him. He says
so pecause he doan’ take any comfort
und doan’ want nopody else to. He
vhas lame und cross, und his hones
ache, und his head vhas growing bald,
und he vhas shealous of you und wants
revenge.
Maype it vhas better for me dot I
vhas a girl, but I doan’ know. It vhas
awtul nice to be a sweet young girl
und to be called angels, und to haf de
poys look at you so shently like a sheep.
If you vhas a girl doan’ you he asham
ed of it. Dot vhas right according to
Hoyle. Maype you can’t climb trees,
run out nights und go swimming in
der mill pond, but if you go py a circus
you vas in de front seals, und some-
pody else puys you a ticket to de
picnick. If I vas a girl I keep my
face so clean as never vhas. I make
shust like music. I walk along nip! a
nip! nip! nip? I keep my hands white
und my hair combed, und vhen somc-
hody meets me und says: “Hello, Susan,
how you vhas?” I answer him: "If you
please sir, my name vhas Birdie, und
I vhas’so weller ash nefer vhas.” If
I could be a lecdle girl, I learn how to
sew, und knit, und make some bread,
und split wood, und bring up coal, und
v/ash dishes, und hoe in de garden, und
den vhas married, my husband would
say: "Ah! noble wommans, you vhas
der capital prize in dcr lottery!”
How bully it vhas to he some hoys.
He doan’ have some taxes to pay—he
doan’ have some barns dat burn down
mit no insurance. Nopody wants to
borrow money of him —no gas bills, to
pay—nopody comes to insure his life.
All he has to do vhas to go py der
school house, play marbles, fly kites
sec'der circus procession,und catswect-
cakes and grow up to he governor.
Dot vhas all, dear shildrens. Doan’
you be troubled. It vhas all right
You vhas getting along petter a<
could be expected by der circumstan
ces, und all you haf ter do vhas to wipe
off your noses and speak nottings to
nopody.—Detroit Free Press.
Sticking to Their Land.
Pine Ridge Agency, Dak., June
20.—Gov. Foster and Maj. Warren
of the commission this morning held
n private council with Reed Cloud
and the three hnlf-breetls, who arc his
recognized confidential advisers. The
discussion lasted two hours, but so
far as can be learned it had no mark
ed result.
There seems now to be no probabil
ity of breaking the opposition here
except by securing the support of in
dividual Indians and in this manner
disintegrating Red Cloud's fol
lowing.
