THE MACON TELEGRAPH: TUESDAY ‘MORNING, DECEMBER 25, 1894. 8 A SUPERIOR MULE. Bunt Hag Traits that Win For Aim a Great Uany Privileges. HIS AGILITY AS A KICKER It Remarkable Even For an Army Mule—A Gun Shot Pat Him M Hit Bed—llic Terrible Bai lie With tbo Wolf* Bunt is a mule. His career lias been checkered, and Ids life ha3 boeu full of ups and downs. Ho Is 18 years old. * Ho has ; long since passed the tlmo in lifo when j even a mule has a lighting show to be boautiful. Yet Hunt is famous, and money cannot j buy him. He was born in Mississippi and i when 3 years old joined tho regular urmy, I going to Fort Bliss, Ter. Ho served five years there and then was transferred to Fort Stanton, N. M. When the Thirteenth regiment moved to Fort Sill, Runt went with them. Ho served faithfully until three years ago, when he was retired ns a veteran. Tho first hard service in the field that Hunt met was in 1884. In the first skirmish ho was wounded by his friends. It was in August. Runt was ono of oight imiles hauling n wagon of a government train from Carthage, N. M. t to Fort Stan ton.* Two companies of the Thirteenth guarded tho wagons. Twenty miles out of Carthago tho Apaches attacked tho train. As tho Apaches circled about, yelling and firing, Runt got nervous. Finally with a kick and a squeal ho broko away from hU harness and galloped straight toward the Apacbes. The Indians at onco bore down on Runt to capture him. Tho soldiers made ready to fire. ‘'Don’t shoot!" yelled ono of them. “You’ll kill Runt." “Blazo away!" said Sergeant Ray. “Ho’s got no bnsiness there." , Tho soldiers fired. Tho Indians scatter ed, leaving Runt alone. Runt hesitated, and a socond volley poured forth. Ono of the bullets struck his tall. With a snort he lowored bis head, planted bis fore feet firmly and began to kick. He kicked un til he fell over exhausted. Tho teamsters then caught him and tied him to ono of tlte wagons. But his first campaign ruined Bunt aa a soldier. No matter whore ho was after that, whether in harness, at tho feed trough or in pasture, if a gun was fired Runt would lower his head and kick until ho fell exhausted. Runt lost his car 11 mouths ago. Tho companies at Fort Sill livo far better than any othors In tho army. Beef is cheap and game is abundant. Each company has a party of hunters continually in tho field. These parties hunt in tho Wichita moun tains. White wolves are more plentiful in thoso hills than perhaps In any other part of America. In fact, elsewhere white wolves are seldom seen. Tho white wolf, so called, is of a gray color, much larger than tho common wolf and for fiercer. Hunters dread him equally with tho moun tain panther. Bunt, of his own accord', joined ono of the hunting parties going up into tho mountains. Btovo Shipper, tho most noted bear hunter In tho Oklahoma country, was ono of tho hunters. Tho men set tlieir camp about 23 miles from Fort Sill, on the Signal raugo. Panthers and wolves wore 60 plentiful at night that tho men took turns keeping watch. Tho horses and mules wore picketed within tho clrclo. Bunt alono refused to submit to the bai ter. Ho would back away and threaten to snap tho picket lino until ho was freed. At night ho would roam about in the flro's light, occasionally wandering out into tho darkness, but returning vory shortly. Tho fourth day before Christmas two wagons lots led with gamo were sent to Fort Sill. In the ovening, after thoy had gone, Shipper brought in a big buck. It was decided to have a buck roast. A mon ster spit wes rigged up, a big firo was kindled, and soon tho odor of juicy moat, pioperly cooked, filled tho woods. Tho panthers, the wolves and the coyotes hur ried toward it. Aa tho timo passed a cir cle of wild boasts crouched on tholr haunches or stole softly about on the edgo of light, howling, yelping and barking. Old Runt was in great spirits. Ho cavort ed about, threatening sevoral times to kick tho buck into tho fire. As the rich odor floated forth tho beasts prowling ai>out bocaino bolder, and occasionally a coyoto would sneak into tho open space, only to retreat before a brand of burning wood. A big wbito wolf, bolder than his fellows, twice sprang into the circle and snupped onco at ono of tho horses and onco at the skin of tho buck. Bunt was walk ing slowly to and fro in the shadow far from the fire. Suddenly thorowns a howl, a snort, and tho white wolf sprang through the air and lit on Bunt's shoulders. Tho mulo trembled and squealed. Ho backod nnd shivered and shook, but ho did not klok. Tho white wolf sunk his teeth deep Into Runt’s nock andusod Ids claws, tear ing the roulo’s flosh. As tho wolf olawod Runt seemed to beoomo powerless, proba bly through fear. Tho hunters crowded around trying to get a shot at tho wolf. Finally Shippor seised a big burning stiok and thrust it over Bunt's neck into the wolf's face. With a snarl the wolf oponod his jaws. Ho' clung fast with hia claws, however. As Shipper thrust forward tho burning wood a second time the wolf shifted his position until ho crouched on Bunt's back. This gave Tom McGrath an opportunity to shoot him. "Bangl" went McGrath's rlfls. The bullet missed. The wolf was untouched. But with the report a great change took place in Bunt. From a frightened, help less animal ho waa transformed into a fighting, kicking mule. Ho bucked and kicked and Tollod. Tho hunters were forced to beat a retreat to tho wagons. From there they watched the fight. The wolf held fast, and as Bunt rolled, the wolf would creep quickly round or loosen his grasp until tho mule rose again. At length Hunt in rolling worked tho wolf back to his hind quarters. Quick as a flash the old mule sprang to his foot, lowered bis head and let fly his heels. Ho caught tho wolf full in tho side. Tho Im pact of the blow was like tbo crack of a black snako whip. The clutch of tho frolf gave WAy, and bo sailed through tho air, landing in the heart of the Are. Ho sprang away, but Shipper shot him before he reached tho outer darkness. The distance he woe kicked was measured by tho men and found to be 21 feet. Hunt continued to kick until bo waa lassoed and hobbled and tied to ono of the wagons. Tho singed skin of the white wolf is in Shipper's pos- pessiou and is ono of the treasures of tho old hunter. Ho shows it to prove that old Bunt bested tho wbito wolf. Runt’s left car, or rather what remains of it, and his worthless eye bear out Shipper in his story. —Fort Sill (O. T.) Cor. Now York Sun.

(Mil, O n Ic Wealthy, Coataated aad CcswqMxtlr Happy. (Special Ooirwpondeuce.] Pittsburg, Deo. 20.—It was a com mercial traveler who waa talking, and the subject of hie remarks was the little town of Cadis, O. “There is not another town like it in the world," he declared, with enthusi asm. “Its population is only about 1,800, less rather than more, I should say, but it has four banks with on ag gregate capital of $390,000 And a sur plus of $175,000. Mind you, Cadis is not a suburb of any big city. It is on in dependent plaoo by itself, not located on a trunk line railroad and reached from the outside world only by means of a short line, of which it is one ter minus, and the only other station is the other terminus, Cadis Junction. "It is years since the plooe has grown any, for it is not a manufacturing town —for from it—and the blaok, pall-liko olonds of smoke that hang over so many western towns are conspicuous there be cause of thejr absenoe. In fact, there may be somo falling off in population, bat the Cadis people do not worry about that. They feel contented in the belief that thoy are secure from financial un certainty for years to oome, for they say there is greater por capita wealth held in Cadiz than in any other town in tho United States or possibly in the world. Of oonrse there aro some sum mer settlements and suburbs no larger than Cadiz whore there is greater wealth per capita, bat I doubt if there is a place of independent existence where the inhabitants are so uniformly woll off. And surely there is no great oity that can show any such general prosper ity as Cadiz. At least half of the fami lies are rich, and no ono is actually poor, dxccpt perhaps some of tho darkios, who comprise probably one-quarter oi the population. "How did-Cadiz como to be so pros perous? Well, tho town is looatodin the hoart of the best wool producing region in the United States. So favorablo are the conditions for 6heep growing in that vicinity that it has always boon profit able there. The Cadizcra aro conserva tive, temperate and proud of their place and tho prominent men they have sent out into tho big world. While I was tliore I talked with the landlord of tho hotel a good deal, and he pointed out to mo tho law offico occupied, whon a young man, by Edwin M. Stanton, after ward Lincoln’s secretary, of war. Tho landlord also informed mo that Congress man John H. Bingham was originally from Cadiz, and that Cy Young and both tho Bill Watsons (father and son) bogan lifo within tho borders of tho town. I do not know who Cy Young and the Bill Watsons aro, but I did not tell the landlord 60, and ho, mistaking my look of uncertainty os to their iden tity for ono of admiration, no doubt, wound up his enthusiastic catalogue of the notables Cadiz has furnished to tho world by pointing out two men that had just entered. '“Them fellers,' ho said proudly, •played in tho band with Buffalo Bill all summer. Cadiz is little, but somo of her folks is in it in most everything worth while on this footstool.' " Charles Applebee. I15 EXAMINATION AT YALE. Ways'That Are Dark and Tricks That Are Not Always Vain. (Special Correspondence.] New Haven, Doo. 20. —Twice a year, in the early part of Docembor and of June, a visitor on the Yale oampns may see, gathered about the steps of old Alumni hall, a group of students anx iously awaiting the Btroko of tho hoar. The regular semiannual examinations ore about to begin. The old ball frowns down grim and silent like a feudal cas tle. Tho studious among the students stand apart in proud self reliance, dis cussing Greek roots or mathematical in- trloaoie8 in a learned way. Questions fly thick and fast through the rest of the group. Anxious faces now show on eagerness- to piok up crumbs of infor mation which would have made glad the tutor's henrfc in months gone by. Borne, too, are dealing out knowledge with a mysterious and cunning air. The olook strikes, and the doors are thrown open. Anxiety seems to van ish for a moment, and the crowd pushes forward with cheers. Once inside the hall, every desk is soon taken, and all is quiet Tho pro fessor in charge is seated on a raised platform, whilo tho watohers pace noiso- lcssly up and down the aislos. There are usually five or six of the latter, and their sharp eyes are everywhere to dotoct any attempt at dishonesty. The penalties for such dishonesty are severe—failure in the examination, suspension or oven expulsion. In faoe of this it would hard ly seem that cheating would be attempt ed or could be carried through under bo many eyes, yet it is. Many and in genious devices are used every year and seldom detectod. It is an easy matter to conceal a close ly written slip in the left hand, and mnoh information can bo carried in that way, or the palm of the hand itself is often written upon. Every year, at Yalo or elsewhere, dates and important facts aro smuggled into tho hall ou the inside of the cuff or on the edges of a blotting pad. The presenoe of a watch on the desk dxcites no suspicion, for time is limited, and therefore precious. But tho circular piece of paper, parted neatly in tho cover, is often muoh moro valuable than time for the successful issue of an exam. Somo "cribs," as these aids are call ed, are by no means so simple. One that has been used sevoral times in New Haven, to tho writer’s knowledge, was made of a long strip of paper, about tho width of a newspaper column, and deft ly fastened to two match sticks, after the manner of a papyrus roll. This txrald be easily worked by the move ment of the fingers of ono hand and ex pose only a small portion of tho roll at .one timo. On one that I saw was a fall digest of a three months' lecture course. Arthur Chase. Keep your blood pure and healthy, and you will nbt have rheumatism.
