Rennie, the miller, was badly injured by William Makin's Jersey bull, Sunday forenoon. The bull knocked him down repeatedly, tossed him over Its head three times and rolled him over and over on the ground. Mr. Rennie finally escaped by stabbing the vicious animal in the neck with his pocket knife. The bull was hornless or Mr. Rennie would have been killed. As it is his right shoulder cap is broken, three ribs partly torn from the breast bone, and he is badly bruised. Mr. Rennie attempted to drive the bull from Ott's pasture into Makin's field when the animal turned on him and knocked him down. Every time he attempted to get up or even made a move, the bull would attack him savagely. This was kept up for a long time until Mr. Rennie thought of his pocket knife and by using it freely managed to keep the bull ofi until he got out of the field. He walked to town with help, but is now confined to his bed. His injuries are not serious but are severe enough tc cause much pain and will keep him from work for a number of days. Later in the day the bull attacked Its owner, Wm. Makin, who however, had a shot gun along and he fllle Its hide with small shot. CHURCH SERVICES. The Presbyterian Church: Sunday school -t 10 a, m J.

My pa, he didn't go to town Last evening after tea, "But got a book and settled down As com'fy as could be. I tell you, I was offul glad To have my pa about To answer all the things I had Been tryln' to find out. And so I askei him why the world Is round, Instead of square, And why the piggies' tails are curled. And why don't fish breathe air? And why the moon don't hit a star, And why the dark is black, And just how many birds there are And will the wind come back? And why does water stay In wells, And why do June bugs hum, im) whnt'it the roar I hear in shells, And when will Christmas come? And why the grass Is always green Instead of sometimes blue, And why a bean will grow a bean, And not an apple, too? And whv A. horse can't learn to moo, And why a cow can't neigh? And do the fairies live on dew, And what makes hair grow gray And then my pa got up and gee! The offul words he said, I hadn't done a thing, but he Jest sent me off to bed.
