THE SPANISH BULL.

How the Animal Is Developed Into q
Fighter for the Public Arena.
The bulls used for fighting purposes
are a specially selected, specially
cared-for class. They are all pedi-
greed. Andalusia is especially the
district of the bull. Here, at the age
of one year, the young bulls are
separated from the heifcrs. branded
with the owners mark and turned out
loose on the plains to Craze with others
of their own age.
When year older the young bulls
are gathered together in order that
their mettle and fighting qualities may
be tested. One of them is separated
from the he'd and chnaed hv q man ON

a blunted lance, overthrows the escap-

comes in front of the animal with n
sharper lance TO withstand the ex-
pected attack. If the bull, on regain
ing his feet, attacks the rider twice it
is passed as fighting animal; but if
he turns tail and runs off then it is set
aside to be killed or to be used in agri-
cultural work. And so with each ami
NAL, until the whole herd of two-year-
olds has been tested.
Each bull that has stood the test
successfully is then entered in the
herd book with n description of it's ap-
pearance and receives n name-such as
Espartero, flamenco and the like. This
process of careful selection goes on

Died, Dec. 2, 1896, Frank, the eldest
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Bartlett.
DEAR FRIENDS: know how impos-
sible it is to silence your grief with
words. The heart pleads for utter
ance in tears, and speaks thus: We
bow in sorrow for the taking OF youc
little one, feeling that while the rip
ened fruit may be gathered, it seems
cruel that the bud should be taken be-
fore it has even opportunity to unfold
its blossom. But in nature fruits fall
and so do blossoms and buds. In the
ways of kind nature this is perhaps
best, and in taking from our arms this
little one, we will try and accept the
cross and bear it, believing that the
bud will yet blossom and bear fruit in
the angel land where the spirit OF this
pure child has so early flown.
A FRIEND.

speeches to which l myself have

say that nothing would induce her to
marry u man who was a widower, or
wore wig, or lived in New Jersey.
And the man of her choice was guilty
of all three of these enormities. I

Ercssmcn.
Hon. Joseph C. Hendrix, representa-
tive in congress from New York, and
Hon. Richard Bartholdt, representa-
tive from Missouri, used to be fellow
reporters in brooklyn years ago. Hen
dirk represented the New York Sun
and Bartholdt the Brooklyn Freie
Presse. The latter, in the course OF
time, drifted west and rose to be a
prominent figure in local politics in
st. Louis, where he now edits an influ-
ential German paper. Hendrix stayed
in New York, but in general way ex-
perienced the same disposition of a
benevolent providence MS his former
colleague of the press. They turned up
in Washington about the same time,
and there was cordial greeting as
they shook hands.
"What are you doing in Washing
ton?" asked Hendrix
That's a fair question:" said Bar
tholdt, "but suppose you tell me what
you are doing here?"
"Why, I'm member of congress"
said Hendrix.
$50 am l." said Bartholdt. "How did
you get into politics?'
"Oh," said Hendrix. 81 was elected q
member of the school board"
$50 was l." said Bartholdt.
''Then 1 was elected president of the
school board" said Hendrix.
$50 was I.'' said Bartholdt.
''Then l was elected to congress"
continued Hendrix.
"And so was l." exclaimed Bar
tholdt.
"Well," said Hendrix, ''you and
must have been born under the same
conjunction of planets"
Both had reached congress by pre-
cisely parallel lines, after separating
in the reporters room in the brooklyn
city hall building, and met after term
OF years in which they'h had completely
lost trace of each other.

DIR. POWELL'S DISCOVERY.

Inoculation.

Thinks he Can Prevent Any Disease by
Inoculation.
COLUMBIA, Mo-, Dec. 4.-Dr. Thomas
Powell, of Columbia, seems to have
learned how to inoculate mans sys-
tenn so as to render it impervious to
disease germs. AS vaccination pre-
vents smallpox, so this discovery will
ward off scarlet fever, consumption,
diphtheria and every other disease
caused by germs. So confident is DR..
Powell of the truth of his discovery
that he has written largely for scienti-
fic journals on the subject, and has
tested it practically by exposing him
self to all manner of diseases.
He entered this week into an agree
ment with California capitalists by
which he is to be paid $4,000 for one
third interest in the discovery. A SAN
itarium will be erected in Los Angeles
and experiments begun. Unsuccessful,
DR.. Powell's fortune is assured.
Absolutely pure, perfectly harmless
and invariably reliable are the quail
ties of One Minute Cough Cure. 1t
never fails in colds. Group and lung
troubles. Children like it because it
is pleasant to take and it helps them.
