ALEXANDRIA
(From the Citizen)

In a hand to hand tussle with a
1900 pound prize Guernsey bull, j. o.
Waters experienced a very close es-
cape from being gored to death at
his farm, the old Erickson place on
the east side of Lake Geneva, Monday
morning between 8 and o'clock. Mr..
Waters, however, was fortunate
enough to escape with one broken and
two injured ribs, and badly bruised
right leg. The bull, which had become
to viscious to be handled safely, was
to be shipped along with the other
stock to the cities Monday morning.
Mr.. Waters was the only person who
would undergo the risk of leading the
bull to town. As he was taking the
bull past his farm house, the animal
reared and charged at Waters, and In
descending broke the lead stick with
its leg. If the piece of the stick re-
manning fastened to the ring in the
bulls nose could have been recovered,
the bull might have been managed
safely, but the piece trailing on the
ground became unfastened from the
ring. Then the bull charged the man,
knocked him to the ground, and gored
his upper right leg. Waters to pre-
vent the bull from goring him to
death grabbed the ring in the bulls
nose, and twisted it and forced the
bull to back from him short dis
lance. In attempting to arise, how
ever, Waters was caught by the bull
again in its rearing charge and tossed
against tree, suffering the injury to
his ribs and blow on his head which
dazed him for short time. Before
Waters could recover from the shock
of the blow, the bull charged again
and knocked the man to the ground.
In the meantime Mrs. Waters with
great presence Of mind had to run to
the barn, found an axe and brought
it to the scene of the struggle. She
had also met Ed. O'Brien, who took
the axe and, while Waters held the
bull by the ring in the nose with his
final command of strength and pre-
vented the brute from wounding him
seriously, chopped the neck of the
maddened animal. Finally the bulls
charges became weaker through the
loss of blood and strength, until Wat
tiers was able to prevent the bull from
falling on him in its death struggle by
pushing it away with his knee. The
bull was eventually killed by bullet.
Mr.. Waters then had his side bound
in a jacket support, and accompanied
his load of stock to the cities, disre-
garding the doctors advice to go to
bed Immediately. There he completed
the business transaction for his stock,
and returned to Alexandria Tuesday
night. He is at present staying at his
fathers home on F street south where
he is resting and recovering from his
injuries. Mr.. Waters says the only
thing he is sorry about is that he did
not have the heart of the animal to
eat. This bull was five-year-old
Guernsey bull, weighing 1900 pounds.
1t had won first prize in its class ev-
cry time it had been exhibited at the
county fair here.

LONG PRAIRIE
lFrom the Leaderl

Mrs. w. H Adams died at her home
in this village Saturday evening after
a lingering illness caused by cancer.
The funeral was held on Tuesday
from the Methodist church of which
she had been a life long member and
interment was in Bearhead cemetery.
Rev. Blaine Lambert officiated. The
services were attended by a large
number of friends and neighbors.
Members of the Woman's Relief
Corps and Grand Army attended the
service in a body. Mrs. Adams was
born in Columbia county, Ohio, Jan.
25, 1845. Her maiden name was Mary
McGoffic. She was married to Will
liam Henry Adams at Red Wing, this
state, on October End, 1862. Mr..
Adams served his country during the
war of the rebellion and after his hon
orable discharge the family came to
this county, arriving here in 1869 and
taking a homestead in Burhamville. ~
About 25 years ago the family left
the old homestead and moved to this
village where they have since resided.
In her declining years, Mrs. Adams
has been forced to give up many of
her activities but her interest in her
church duties she continued until the
last. Seven years ago she was taken
ill with cancer and she has failed
gradually since that time. However
she was more or less active up to a
few months ago when the develop
ment Of the growth forced her retire
ment. For a number Of weeks she had
been seriously ill and the end came
Saturday evening with the close of
the day.
James Hart & Sons have bought all
the Osalds street frontage in block IA
as far east as the Anne Lee millinery
store building and next summer will
erect modern store building thereon.
The deal is one of the largest real es-
tate transactions in the history of the
village if not the largest. The lots
included are now occupied by the La
Ear store, the Minette furniture store
and the Henry residence. The 'front.'
age on the opposite street is $50 feet
and reaches back to the Kircher prop
erty. All the buildings will be torn
iown to make way for the new store.
