Attacked by a Bull.

Robert L. Burkhart, residing In the
eastern suburbs OF the city met with a
thrilling experience this morning. He
was in his barn yard when he was at
tackled by Jersey bull in a very fero-
oious manner. The animal tossed him
in the ar. jambed him through fence
breaking il down, showed him into the
side of barn and hunted him around
generally, the horns not being long en-
ough to hook him. Finally he succeeded
in getting through gate and out of the
reach OF the infuriated bull. lie found
that he was bruised from head to foot in
all parts OF the body; but fortunately his
flesh was not cut, and no bones broken.
1t was wonder, though, that he was
not killed. Mr.. Burkhart is doing well,
but will have to nurse his wounds for
some time.
