GOES OKU Isn't That an Attractive Looking Illustration? Without Horns He Goes After Red Sweater and W. A. Collver Who Wears it. W. A. Collver, a rancher of Catch ing Inlet, was hi Marshlleld yesterday to have himself examined and attend ed to after an exciting experience with a fine thoroughbred Jersey bull which he owns. Although pretty badly bruised he has no bones broken or pronounced gashes on his anat omy. 'ine bull had been attached to a chain and rope about one hundred feet long on Mr. Collver's farm, and after the animal had eaten all the grass he could find with the radius of the circle which he made while tied to a stake, his owner decided to lead his' further afield. Mr. Collver pulled up the stake and catching hold of the rope, which was joined to a chain fastened to a ring in the animal's nose, led the cheerful bull to a choice stretch of grass which he noticed some distance away where there was considerable water. Having reached the spot which would satisfy the inner bull, he proceeded to force the stake into the ground, and that was how the accident happened. He was suddenly struck from be hind with a violence which sent him several feet, and before he could re cover himself he received another jolt. The animal was crazy mad, and when it was too late, Mr. Collver realized that he was wearing a gbrge ,ous new red sweater, which he had just purchased in Marshfleld. The bull went after the sweater with the firm intention of demolish ing it, regardles of what might be inside of it, and having been dehorned the struggle was prolonged to an amazing length, during which Mr. Collver was bunted and rolled around In the mud and water. The victim seized the chain attached to the ring in the animal's .nose, but the bull did not mind any kind of twisting. The sweater was no longer red. It had become a dark brown from the mud coating It had received. There was blood In the bull's eye, however, and the brute never noticed any dif ference. Fighting and struggling to gain the mastery, and .being bunted with the bull's head until he was nearly overcome, Mr. Collver AnaUy managed to secure a grip on the anl jnal's nose and forced his nostrils in to a deep pond of water Tho bull took several deep1 draughts of the liquid into his lungs and suddenly became passlfled enough to give his owner a chance to get away from him. Mr. Collver found that no bones were broken in the mlxup, but ho was bruised up pretty badly. He was attended to by Dr. McCormac yesterday, who, on learn ing tho cause of the numerous bruises ho found, could not help being amused at the incident of the red sweater. "Would you care to repeat the per formance at our next Fourth of July celebration?" he asked the rancher. "It would be a big drawing card and would undoubtedly prove exciting." Mr. Collver laughed at the sugges tion, but declared that one experi ence of tho kind was quite enough for his enjoyment.
