Killed by a Bull,
The Dodgeville Chronicle of last
A. fol1o..

The Dodgeville Chronicle of last
week contained the following.
ave regret to record a very
serious accident which occurred yes
terday morning to our fellow-towns-
man, Mr.. Joseph Pearce. While
attempting to house a jersey bull
which had been left in tie yard
over night, the animal turned upon
him, knocking him down and goring
him severely about the head and
chest, breaking his jaw bone and
some of his ribs, and also breaking
his right arm near the wrist, besides
infiicting severe bruises on various
parts of his body and probably
serious internal injuries. Mr.. Pearce
had the presence Of mind to hold
on to the chain attached to the
animals nose thus keeping it close
to the ground, or otherw wise he would
no doubt been killed outright. The
animal also attacked Mrs. Pearce
who came to her husbands assis-
lance, knocking her down and after
wards cornering her against a post,
but Notwithstanding Mr.. P.'s Grip
pied condition he succeeded in res
cuing her, with the aid of a fence
rail, and she escaped with a slight
injury. Mr.. Pearce's son, DR.. w.
J. Pearce, of Cobb, was summoned
by telegraph, and in company with
DR.. Cosens, of this village, is doing
everything possible for his fathers
relief; and although the case is a
critical one we hope their efforts
may be successful"
All efforts to save the life of the
injured man proved of no avail and
he died on Friday morning.

DODGEvILLE.
THE INSTITUTE.

The Teachers Institute now in ses.
sion is probably the most success.
ful one ever held in the county.
The attendance throughout has been
larger than upon any previous occa-
sion, and the interest taken by those
present is very gratifying to all
persons interested in education.
This system of institutes is accom-
plishing grand and noble work
that cannot be over estimated and
as we sit and listen to the exercises
we cannot refrain from comparing
the present method of teaching with
that practiced when we were attend
ing the primary and intermediate
departments. Under the present
method it seems impossible for a
child to attend school without
making rapid progress. While
within the short space of eighteen
years teachers were so poorly in
formed that we remember one who
taught that there was an east and
west pole. This and many other
erroneous teachings were grated
into the minds of young pupils, but
thanks to the progress of knowledge,
it has given US a better class of
teachers in the common schools and
now we look upon the art of teach
ing as very important science.
The work taken up this week was
the same as that of last week. The
following additional teachers have
come in since last Wednesday noon.

The register shows 12S in attend
ance up to the present writing,
"Wednesday noon.) The Institute
closes Friday night and examina-
tions will be held Saturday.
The Dodgeville band assisted by
Mr.. Harry Hankins, of Mineral
Point, attended the picnic at Ridge
way last Tuesday.
Will Williams has been setting up
the cigars for the boys, because he
says It's u boy"
A call has been made for a special
election to be held September Is.
Sentiment seems to be largely in
favor of a $500 license.
Prof Stearns, of the State Uni
versity gave a very interesting lee
ture in the M. E. church last Mon
day night, taking as his subject
"What are the fruits ?"
Joseph Pearce, ST., wealthy
farmer was gored to death by a
vicious bull last Thursday morning.
Mr.. Pearce went into the yard to
lead the animal into his stall. He
did not take the staff usually used
for that purpose but took hold of
the ring in the nose with his hand.
For some reason unknown the bull
became enraged and knocked Mr..
Pearce down and several times
assaulted him in that position.
Mrs. Pearce ran to the rescue i'm
mediately the enraged beast made
for Mrs. Pearce enabling his victim
to escape by crawling through the
fence. He was terribly bruised and
lacerated and died the following
morning.

is only fair to add, is founded on a
sensible idea. How much of the
drunkenness and vices of large Amer
lean cities is due to treating. In this
respect we are a nation of fools. In
no country in the world is the custom
carried to such an extent. The Sc
verify of prohibition laws may be
best studied in Mr.. St. Johns State,
where even physicians have to take
oath once in five years that they will
not prescribe liquors, unless absolute
" necessary as a medicine. In Mich
igan and Minnesota and perhaps some
other States, effort is made to create
a temperance sentiment in the first
named State by compulsory teaching
in all public schools of the effect of
drink on the human system. In the
latter named State to sell pupil of a
school or seminary drink, is INSIDE
meanor. The holding of saloon keep
ers as responsible for paupers charge
able on the town, when it can be
proved from whom they obtain liquor,
seems to be peculiar to Nebraska.
