This evidently did not agree with the ami
NAL, for he quickly emerged, and the first
object meeting his gaze was Mr.. Thomas
Atkins of the Manchesters, restfully stand

lessly charged, utterly forgetting the fact
that Tommy was not defenseless, being
armed with no less formidable a weapon
than rife, mounted with bayonet The
laundering charge of the enraged bull did
not disconcert Tommy" He scorned to
seek the shelter of the friendly sentry box
close by, but Immediately, regardless of
consequences, brought his bayonet to the
charge, awaiting results. The bull-a plucly
feilow-gallantly went for the bayonet
which, in the stanch and tight grasp of
Mr.. Atkins, was driven up to the hilt into
the animaPs breast, causing him to halt for
