WHIPPING A MAO BULL.
Farmer Post's Successful Fight with Hit
Valuable Btatt.
An KMerville, Penn., racial ■«▼■:
Abram Po«t, of th.t township, owns a
blooded bull which fissions been an object
of terror to ali employed on the (arm,
owing to it* fierce and aggrtnlre dlaposl*
tion. Tti‘ bull bad alwajt been nnder the
control ol it* owner, who declared thatao
long as any one stood up boldly againattbe
animal no fear of Ita attacking him need
be entertained. He urged thta upon hi*
hired help.but beneter couldemplcy eny

appealed to him to bare the animal killed,
tellering i hat sooner or later it wooJd re
bel the authority o( her hmbind
ar il attatK him. The beast wss too vsluable
to be f'Hcriiiwf!, aud Pest, ridiculing the
idea that the bull could master him, re-
(used to part with it.
On Ttiur6 iav cvonr'n 1-

returning to the house when he noticed
that the bull, which waa in the yard,shook
its head savagely as he passed by it, aud
had an tmutucily vicious look Id its eyes.
Post passed on, psyiux no attention to the
animal. He had gone only a short distance
when he heard a quick etep behind blui
and a low A llowing which he knew waa
made by the bull. He turned quickly and
paw the animal bearing down upon him.
He grasped the bull witu one hand by the
boms, hoping to prevent it from goring
* him, and the next instant he was toa>ed in
• the air. He (ell on the bull s head aud
neck, and was tossed the second time,
this time being thrown to the op
posite Bide Of the barnyard fence. He was
imdly brnis»-d, and his clothing waa turn
by the rough handling be fi*“. r ®$*' 1 r 1 e ?•
but believing that if be allowed the bull to
remain master of tb- field iti usefulness
would be gone snd its killing a necessity,
Post determined to assume the offensive
himself and use every effort to conquer the
savage animal. H- f» a larga and muscu
lar man, and,arming himself with a heavy
club, he jumped over the fence and ad
vanced b-ildly upon the bull, which wss
pawing the ground and bellowing furl-
oasly. The moment it saw Poit
in the yard it plongrd at bun
with horns lowered. Poat mat the
boll with a terrific blow with the club
across the forehead. The heavy wood was
broken to pieces, but the blow had no
effect on the animal except to increase its
fury. Tho boll pressed upon the (emit*,
who jumped as de and caught it by one
born ami one ear and endeavored tr keep
it. head turned away.. He. waa thrown
from aide to aide ar d bia bo d broken.
The bull cauplu hist on tta borna and
once more to»*1 btm In the air, th e time
throwing him over the lence Into an ad-
joining field. Tbe maddened animal
charged against the fence and endeayored
to knock down He barrier te'.ween It and
tb. object of Its rage.
8.ill tbe farmer waa undismayed, and,
.Dieting bla barn, he armed blmaelfeitb
a heavy thrxe-tlnrd pitchfork and returned
once more to tbe barnyerd. The bull
rnthed eg tin to tbe attack. Peat Hood
hti ground and throat the sharp tinea uf
tbe fork Into the buli’e noee, aopporing
that the acute pain canted by the .tabbing
would force tbe animal to turn back and
make it more cantions. In this be waa
mataken. The animal rathed on, and
was forcing him against tbe fence, where
be would have been crushed to death in a
moment. To prevent this Pott threw
himself forward, and. thebull'a head being
lowered to the ground, jumped aalride lb”
animals neck. A few plunges by the bull
threw him lrom that position, and ba
fell on the ground cloaa by. Fortunately
be rstsined hia bold on tbe fork, and ris
ing nuickly to hia feet, be thruat tbe tinea
again and again into tbe animal's tide
and neck. 1 ha blood spurted from aveir
wound made by tbe fork, and tbe bull bel
lowed with pain aud redoubled tta efforts
to catch the farmer on ila horns, but bla
desperate situation bad uetved him to
greater activity, ana tho beast failed io all
its efforts Post oootlnned bla assault*
wi h tbe pltchlork aa he Jumped from aide
to aide to avoid tbe charges of the boll,
nntll both aides oi the animal were drip-
png with blood from neck to fl.nks. Tbe
null continued the contea: for a few min-
utes, and then turned and tan to the other
side of the barn, ard bellowing with pain.
Post did not move away 'or some time
and then went lo bia houae. He waa cov
ered with Mood, almost naked, and drip
ping witit perspiration. Ha washed him
self, rested a moment, and then, against
the earnest protest of nia wile, went bark
to tbe narnyard. He found tb. boll stand
ing In one corner of toe yard. Poet walked
triaklyupio the animal, aodltcowvdat

Tbe beast was completely mastered, and

“Queer sitters? llundredsof them,"
said O. B. DeMorat, tbe photographer,
yesterday repeating a question and an
swering it. “My greatest trouble with
sitters U that they will almost invari
ably ait os if they had swallowed a
ramrod. A man will come in, sit
down as stiff as a poirer and pay: ‘I
want my picture taken this way.’ I
take it that way, and as a matter of
course he is dissatisfied. Had he said
tome: ‘Take it the Way you think
beBt,’ he would have been sura of a
good picture. Very few people know
how to assume a proper expression,
and really they have uo business to
assume any expression but a natural
one. I like to Bee business men come
in, ior they give me very little trouble,
having no desire to look better than
they are.
It is very funny to see some people
trying to look p'leasant. One day a
philanthropist, whose countenance is
as mild as a woman’s, and beams with
goodness, wanted to be photographed.
His face had a strained look as he sat
in the chair, and I told him to assume
a more cheerful expression, _ The poor
man screwed up his face in such a
manner that he looked likes red-hand
ed murderer. I worked with him for
half an hour, and during that time lie
managed to make himself look ridicu-
lous in a hundred different ways. One
moment lie looked like an imbecile,
f the next like a stage villain. I finally
' got a negative, hut nobody would have
taken it for the picture of a philan
thropist. Now, it he had onlv looked
natural there would have Deen no
trouble at all.
“I don’t want to be thought ungal
lant, but I am iorced to acknowledge
that the ladies are far more trouble
some than men. Nearly all of them
want to look sweet and smiling, and in
theirefforta to do so sotueof them simper
in a way that isalmoetcnough to break
the camera; and they all want to look
young. That is a woman’s weakness.
An old lady about GO called one day,
and selecting the photograph of a
young and voluptuous actress, said she
wanted her picture taken like that.
The actress in the picture had on a low-
necked dress, and looked charming.
‘Do you want it exactly like that?’ I
asked. ‘Yes, sir,’ replied the lady,
with determination. I photographed
her, and exhibited a proof. ‘Thqt’g

lsdy cried. ‘It doesn’t look a bit like the
one I showed you.’ ‘But, madam,’ I

“The ladies have got a neat little
dodge now that bothers us a« great
deal. Say, for instance, that Mrs. X
wants to be photographed. 01 two of
her favorite dresses she does not know
which would look best in the picture.
How does she overcome the difficulty ?
Very nicely. She has her picture
taken in one ot the dresses. She sub
sequently calls to look at tbe proof,
and after a cursory glanco says it docs
not suit her. Of course she must sit
again. This time she is attired in the
other dress. Then she solects which
ever picture suits her, and frequently
takes the first alter all. The photo

deserves .monument.
“Ah, the ladies are a queer set. As
a rule a lady does not bring her friends
with her when she comes to bo photo

amino the proof sho is accompanied
by a dozen. Eleven of them will look
at the proof and pronounce it charm
ing, but tho twelfth, alt, there is the
stumbling-block. She looks at it very
carefully, gsutes at me as if I bod
robbed her, and then says, in a voice
that warns me not to contradict her,
that the picture is miserable and does
not look at all liko her friend. The
others tako another look, while tho
twelfth lady calmly points out tho im
aginary defects, and finally all agree
that the picture must bo taken over
