-----
Mule Killed by Live Wire.
-----
A mule was killed last night at Eighteenth and Bosque streets by coming in
contact with a voltage from a light wire of the Waco Gas company, but the
voltage was conducted over a telephone wire which had fallen across the the
light wire through some one throwing scantlings across the telephone wire,
breaking it down.
The mule was passing that point, touched
the wire and death resulted.
