HIS HARDEST TASK.
The Bull the Matadore Found Il Most
Difficult to Kill.

The Bull the Matadore Found II Most
Difficult to KILL
There is no description of a bulldght
In Mrs. Maud Howe Elliotts book,
"sun and Shadow In Spain" but there
is a record Of meeting with a mata-
dore in the studio Of the court painter
Don Jose Villegas, and the ensuing
conversation, part of which revealed
the bullfighter in an unexpectedly gem
tie light. 1t also makes plain the fun
damental reason why Americans OBJ
ject to bullfghts.
How many bulls have you killed.
some one asked of the matadore.
'In twenty-five years l have killed
$500 bulls"
"Were you ever afraid?"
II have been afraid many, many
times. On those occasions l put my
trust in my legs and ran as fast as l
could.
"Tbe bull, however, is the noblest Of
animals and the bravest. He never
makes a cowardly attack from behind.
He is so frank. He is terrible, though.
A man needs nerve to face him when
he comes into the ring paving the
earth and believing"
"Wil you tell us about the bull that
was the hardest of all to kill?"
The matadore's face changed.
"He was a white bull" he said slow
ly, land he didn't want to fight. When
he first came in he put his muzzle in
my hand. He followed me about like
a little dog. l led him with the cloak
wherever I wanted to go. Yes, that
was the hardest bull of ali to kill"

"Oh, WELL" he remarked as he arose
painfully and busted off his clothes,

THE "GHoST FLUID"
A Test by Which May Be Diseerned
the DigitaI Effluvia.

A Test by Which May Be Diseerned
the DigitaI Effluvia.
There is an experiment, first mace
by DR.. J. Maxwell, advocate general al
the court Of appeals in Paris, a dis
tinguished magistrate and physician,
which may be repeated in any drawing
room.
Place a screen covered with a dark
colored cloth in front of a window SO
that the light falls full upon it. Be
tween the window and the screen put
the subject of your experiment. Let
him hold his hands, palms toward the
breast, finger tips touching, in such q
position that they are projected against
the dark background of the screen.
Then bid him slowly separate his
hands, keeping the fingers extended
widely. Standing behind him you will
observe a sort of blush gray cloud
which seems 20 unite one hand to the
other. Eight people out of ten will
see this, says Vance Thompson in
Hampton's Magazine. In 800 tests
made by DR.. Maxwell personally 25C
folk of one sex and the other discerned
the digital ehluvia; about per cent
saw it tinged a decided blue, two saw
it yellow in tone, and in one instance
the spectator saw it of a reddish hue.
The experiment succeeds best in 6
warm room. Cold and damp work
against it. The duration of durability
is four or five seconds.

81 IN BABYs THROAT
Big Coin Causes Death OF
Year-Old Child.

Hickman. Ky, May 5.-The year
old baby of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Davis died at their home in West
Hickman yesterday after a few days
Illness. A few days ago, the baby,
while playing with dollar, tried to
swallow it and the dollar hung in
the child's throat, and was choking
it. A neighbor running in the
frightened family, managed to tear
the dollar from the child's throat,
but the throat was affected and
death followed.
