as a good runner and jumper. On re
cent visit to his stock farm a steer of

with bowed head and uplifted tail while
just ahead, with increased speed at
every leap the marketman led in the
flight of his life. Towards Stoney Camp
rapidly the marketman led the race and
reaching it's banks up into space went
his form and down it came, in twink
ling of the eye, on 'tother side a dis
lance of Is feet When he hit the grit
across the rushing waters of the swollen
stream he landed on his "all fours, but
tbs said there was no let-up in his flight
for on he crawled, no halt being made
till he had safely landed in the woods on
the steep hills beyond Needless to say,
he escaped the steer.
