Col. W. H. Holmes, state superin¬

on reaching his majority. His first
case was to prove that a certain mule
belonged to a certain negro. He won
the case.
Subsequently in another mule cast
he proved the animal belonged to an
other negro. Then lie was elected dis
trict attorney, and the first case he
hud to prosecute was one concerning
a mule. The mule had been stolen and
was over the line in Mississippi. He
was going to abandon the case, when
one of his former clients approached
him and said.
“Gunnel, ef I was you all, I’d go
after dat mule. Dot's de mule been
