Killing 4 Bull Without a Weapon

NIiln0 Bull without weapon.
Cayetano, famous Spanish toreador,
once was strolling across a meadow
with couple Of friends when his at
tention was attracted by an old and
1nfuriated bull which was galloping
toward them with lowered head and
erect tail. Cayetano had no weapon,
not even cane, but he seized a dust
coat which one of his friends was car
rying over his arm. As soon as the
bull got close to them Cayetano babe
his companions make their escape
while he engaged the animals atten-
ton. Using the coat as q capa, he
drove the bull crazy with fury, STEP
ping aside with the deftest agility at
each Of the animals charges. In this
manner he caused the bull to turn
sharply in the, midst of its onward
PUSHES until finally an omfnous crack
was heard, and the bull fell In a heap,
with its backbone broken by the sud-,
den wrench given by the animals alb
rupt swerve.

The Toll Of
Progress:
Story of q Civilization Build.
er Who Perished at His Task
By GUS SEEl
Copyright by F. A. Munsey Co.

Late one night big Jan Mircovitch
thrust his ponderous body through the
open door Of an empty freight car
bound southwark out Of Denver.
The second morning following he
emerged In sRaton, bruised and stiff
from thesjolhng, musty and disheveled
from lack Of water, resembling a hi
bernating' bear leaving winter quar-
tiers.
His cheeks were swollen, his eyes
watery, and he stumbled awkwardly
across the ci1ered railroad tracks In
quest of refreshments and food.
Two weeks previous he had drawn
the whole Of tho two months back
wages due him at q coal mine In north
ern Colorado. The comforts and de-
lights Of the city called him, and he
drifted eastward into Denver.
The saloons, the gambling halls, the
pool rooms, the shows, found him a
congenial patron, ever ready to invest
hard coin in what they had to offer.
At the end Of fourteen days the resi-
due of the one hundred and fifty odd
dollars amounted to two bright silver
dollars, half dollar, . quarter, few
nickels and dimes and penny or two.
Jan was vastly pleased with himself
and the world. He had had his fun;
now be would go to work again. He
had no fear of hardships.
He had never found it difficult to
capitalize his 200 pounds Of Drawn and
bone, and, besides, he was versed in
living cheaply. Two dollars was suf-
Il cient to keep him from want for
quite awhile.
For several days Jan lived quiet
and observant ufA And at length,
when seated in q box In the Arcade
saloon, he thrust hand into the pock-
ct of his overalls and could only discov-
Ell three nickels, he decided to go to
work.
From the date Of his entry in Ameri-
can ways and customs, twenty years
before, he had followed one system in
seeking employment.
He left the saloon, walking q few
PAGES down the street to where knot
Of rudely clad men were gathered
about blackboard placed conspicu-
Ously on the sidewalk.
Jan ran his eye slowly and carefully
down the list. He was not familiar
enough with English to select the es-
pecial item he desired at once.
He read, Twenty transfers at So,
five muckers at $3.50, thirty carpenters
at 50, forty hard rock men at 81. 100
laborers at $2," and so on until he read.
Fifty miners, San Francisco"
Then he entered the door and pre-
sented himself at hole in the wall
through which he could see neat and
orderly Office force at work.
A young man answered his call. He
was told that the San Francisco work
was four feet free nickinp Ho
