surgeon of the steamer Philadelphia,
which arrived the other day from Por
to Rico and Venezuelan ports. DR..
Renaud is some hero, as the passen-
gers of the line can attest. A week
before arriving here the Philadelphia
was lying at Puerto Cabello. Three
bull fights were announced for the
afternoon. After lady equestrienne
had danced about the bull and given
cute exhibitions of managing "Horsey"
a strong man came in and broke big
chains on his chest and sustained the
weight of five or six men on aforesaid
chest.
A matador. nattily attired and gaily
bespangled. came bowling and smiling
into the bull ring. There was mag

entrance. and as the curtains were
parted a big bull appeared. An at

matador tantalizingly waved a red
bandanna with his eft hand. while
he held his sword in Place with his

The bull didn't pay attention to the
bandanna at all. He made straight
for the matador. and the matador
lodged him. Again the bull disregard
ed the bandanna and the matador saw
that something was wrong. Either this
bull didn't understand the sport or he
was foxy. The wielder of the sword

marathon for the palings which were
five or six feet high.
The bull tore after him and caught
the unfortunate bull fighter as he was
making a flying leap. He sent him
ten feet into the air and the matador
came down hard in the bull ring

Three eastern experiment stations,
Maine, New York and Vermont, have
given a large amount of attention to
the study Of late blight of potatoes
and subsequent rot and the means of
prevention. All three stations have
demonstrated over and over again
that the potato crop can be success
fully protected against late blight
and the subsequent rot by thorough,
persistent spraying with well pre-
pared bordeaux mixture.
