McCullom, the well known young
land man, on recent occasion
would indicate that Bee is well quail
flied to fill the role of a bull fighter,
and indeed some of his friends in
innate that Bee may appear in the
Matamoros bull ring when the next
fight comes off. The story Of his
experience tells Of a combat with a
fierce bull waged far out on the
military road a few nights ago, single
handed and with nothing to aid him
except d bucking automobile.
The bull in the story evidently
disliked automobiles, or perhaps this
special machine aroused its ire ANY

from the auto horn and tart re-
marks from the man behind the

bull on the straight stretches, and
the relative positions remained prac-
totally unchanged.
On the fourth lap Bees breath

from the exhaust OF the machine and
he decided that a change OF tactics
was necessary. Rounding the rear
of the car at the beginning OF the
fifth lap he quickly dropped TO his
knees and crawled under the chassis.
