We lived in a cottage which had once

deed for the house and lot was given
to my mother. We drew very small
income, which was paid US by the

My mother was the daughter of an
English gentleman who came to Amer

death without a penny. When she

ATTACKED BY VICIOUS BULL
John Reagan, of Fairfield, Receives
Injuries Which May Prove Fatal.


Fairfield, Aug. 13.-John Reagan.
who lives with his father-in-law, John
Mcmahon, in the southern part of this
town was attacked by a vicious bull
about six o'clock Tuesday morning
and received injuries from which his
recovery is doubtful
Mr.. Reagan was standing against
the bars OF the barn yard with his
back to the bull when he was attacked
by the animal from under the bars.
He was thrown ten feet in the air
against the barn after which the ami
NAL threw him again fifteen feet
against a stone wall. The mans left
hip was broken, three ribs were frac
tured, his skull was fractured
and he also suffered two large
scalp wounds. He is in a delirious
condition most of the time and 1t is
expected he cannot live.
Mr.. Reagan was alone when the ac.
cident occurred but the family was
aroused by his cries and dog was
set on the bull which was finally
driven away from his victim. The
injured man was taken to the house
and DR.. G. c. Berkley and DR.. w. j.
Upton were summoned from st. AL
bans They dressed his wounds and
made him as comfortable as possible
The bull was three-yearold Hol
stein.
Mr.. Reagan came to Fairfield from
Arizona about year ago. He sold
his farm and came here for the bene
fit OF his health. He has wife and
four children.

SHERIFF BRADLEY WILL FIGHT
Saratoga official Will Try to Keep His
Job

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug. 15.-Sheriff
John Bradley, Jr., against whom
charges of neglect OF duty in connec-
ton with alleged gambling on the
Saratoga race track have been filed,
had conference yesterday with ex-
State Senator Edgar T. Bracket,
whom he has retained as his counsel.
After the conference Senator Brac-
kett gave out the following statement:
IL have seen copy of the charges
against the Saratoga county sheriff,
as published in the papers.
Il know nothing of the facts; nothing
that has occurred on the track, be-
cause | have not been there. But II
the sheriff has honestly done his duty,

is entirely unnecessary; his zeal is

IL gave him once again to proclaim
the principles for which he stood. His
nomination for third time, he de-
clared in his speech of acceptance,
could only be explained by a sub
stantial and undisputed growth in
the principles and policies for which
he, with a multitude of others, had
contended. "As these principles and
policies" he said, have given me
whatever political strength | possess
the action of the convention not only
renews my faith in them, but
strengthens my attachment to them. -
Before coming to Lincoln from
Fair View, four miles distant Mr..
Bryan received 1900 visitors. To one
and all he extended a cordial greet
ing. His arrival shortly after noon
at the hotel Lincoln, where he and
John W. Kern, the vice presidential
candidate, were the guests of honor
at luncheon to the committee of

outburst of cheers and applause He
Immediately was surrounded by a
