At Bradford few days ago, Mr.. j.
w. Bliss, (better known as "Uncle Joe"
the ''member from Bradford,n) had
quite an exciting adventure with a two
years old Jersey bull of his, which came
near costing him his life. He had occa-
sion to go into the field where his
lordship was feeding, when he 1.-THE
bully saw him and became suddenly
belligerent, and at once ''struck an at
titude," and made charge Oh the sup
posed enemy. Uncle Joe, not liking
the appearance of things, beat hasty
retreat, but soon found he could not
give him ''clear field" and ran behind
a large tree. But the animal was not
to be cheated out of his prey, and COM
menced Swinging around the CIRCLE"
and Uncle Joe doing his best to keep
out of the way. After some time thus
spent Taurus became apparently dis
gusted and left him. Our friend watch
ed him until he thought he was at a
safe distance, when he also left the tree
for the nearest fence. But, as it proved,
the gentleman from Jersey had only
taken this way to "draw him out" from
his retreat, for no sooner had he done
this than he returned to the charge with
redoubled fury, which made Mr.. Bliss
put in his best ticks for the fence, which
he reached just in season, putting and
blowing like a steam engine, leaving
the bull master of the field
