Smothered by a Tin Bucket.

On last Sunday, Fred w. GRADER
lost valuable steer. Someone going
through the pasture, left a small tin
bucket, and the steer, in trying to lick
the bucket, got it fastened on his nose
so tight that he soon smothered.
This shows the mischief that trespas-

such things behind them.
