F. Peterson, a farmer living some five miles northwest of this place, was set upon and killed Thursday evening of last week by a vlol- oc8 bull.

The bull was known to be ugly, and Mr. Peterson, though bent with rheumatism and hard work, was the only man of whom the animal was afraid. It is surmised that owing to the fog and the gathering darkness the animal did not recognize Mr. Peterson. At all events, he made a fierce assault upon him, probably taking him by rurprlse, and knocked him down against a wire fence, and jumped upon him and stamped him with his fore feet.

Mr. Peterson's back was broken and several ribs were fractured. He was rescued by his boys, who were near the yard, and whose attention to what was going on was fitst attracted by the way the cattle were "bunched by the demonstration they were making. Mr. Peterson was gasping his last when relief came and expired at once.

Dr. Saunders was hur- riedlysont for, but the victim of the bull's fury had been long dead when the physician arrived. Mr. Peterson was a thrifty and hardworking farmer, and hadaccurnmulated a comfortable property. He leaves a wife and several grown up sons and daughters.

He was very highly thought of in the community. The funeral occurs today. $5.000.00 worth of For Men, Boys and Children. Overcoats, Fur Coats, Caps, Gloves and Mittens and Duck Coats. $8,000.00 worth of LADIES and CHILDREN'S Cloaks! At much less than regular prices.
