RIO 6RANDE REPORTS.
Khe n the Flow Is Normal FL Paso
Gets PLENTY of Wafer.

The June report of the Colorado
SECTION of the climate and crop service
of the United States weather bureau,
prepared by F. Fl. Brand enbure, the
local forecast official and section direc-
tor at Denver, states that during the
month of June 1.-The discharge Of The
Rio Grande at Del Norte was slightly
In excess of normal, and double that OF
June 1892 Del Norte is the location
of the gauginP station at the head Of
the San Luis Valley.
1t will be remem oered that last year
the report for the season showed tn at
the river flow was about one-half the
normal at Dsl Norte, and as result
the river was dry at Ell Paso for the
entire month. This year, with . normal
flow at Del Norte. which Is at the head
OF the valley where the first detection
of water to any amount occurs. Ell
Psso and the valley below had an ample
supply OF water throughout the month
OF June.
It appears therefore that when the
Rio Grande carries a normal volume Of
of water in its upper courses, there is
still left after the detection of all the
water taken out between Del Norte
and Ell Paso q sufficient quantity to
give Us steady flow throughout the
month of June; aud of course In case of
more than q norma. flow, the flow at Ell
Psso would be still greater and would
probably continue iuto July.

THE BULL REMEMBERED
And 6ored HIS Enemy To Death
When He Got a Chance.

When He Got a Chance.
While attempting today to punish an
angry bull, Patrick Welch, q we'll
known farmer of North Pelham in
Westminster county, was gored to
death. says an exchange.
This morning when Mr.. WEIGH went
to his pasture the bull made fer him.
| 1t plunged at him with It's head lower
ed, but he avoided it by taking refuge
the tarn, armed himself with q pitch
| fork and returned to punish the bull.
In she scrimmage that followed the
farmer had his trousers torn, but he
managed to jab the bull several times
In the face and 1t finally retired to an.
other part of the field.
Mr.. WEIGH afterward told some of
his neighbors that he had whipped the
bull until 1t WIS as tame as cat.
While he was talking q storm came up
and the farmer fastened back to the
pasture to drive his COWS to shelter.
He found the bull waiting for him at
the gate. Its face was swollen from
the wounds inflicted upon 1t in the
morning. When the beast saw the
farmer 1t set up an angry believing.
Fearing trouble, Mr.. Welch again
seized the pitchfork. His victory in
the morning made him confident and
he opened the gate and walked toward
the big creature without hesitation.
This added to the BULLS fury.
The creature lowered Its huge head
and made for the farmer with the
speed of train. The farmer tried TO
keep it off by jabbing it again in the
face with the pttchfork, but this time
the animal was so maddened that it did
not seem to mind 1t. 1t kept on COM
ing, and catching it's victim In the back
with it's horns tossed him about 20 feet.
Mr.. WEIGH had just risen to his knees
and before he could defend himself the
bull was upon him again. There was q
cry of agony and the fight was over.
One of the animals sharp horns had
caught the man in the temple and pene-
trsted the brain. Mr.. Welch's nose
was also broken. A man on an adjoin-
ing farm who cav the fight ran to the
pasture. The farmer was dead and his
was saturated with blood.

wolves.
But you did have to know how to
shoot though. and it made your eyes
and nerves steady. Did 1 ever tell
you how once killed bull buffalo
with Q knife? 1t was this way. 1t
was long about here somewhere, just
after the war. Me and Blake Kyle
was on a scout and We run out of meat
and had to look around and see what
we could get. There was buffalo
signs all around and we knowed they
wasn't far away, but we couldn't meet
up with them for long time.
'Finally In the afternoon we rode up
over q ridge, like that one yonder, and
[ never seen such 8 sight as what was
spread outover that prairie. I'd seen
buffalo, but 1t seemed like I'd never
seen 'em so thick before. For miles and
miles the plains was black. There amt
another sight on earth like a herd OF
buffalo, backs and heads as far as you
can see, and they just move and sort of
tremble like, like they was being
shook up.
"Me and Blake rode up over the
ridge and wondered what to do. We
didn't want to start the whole herd
