Jt looked funny to the man and he thought what great sport it would be to get over into the lot and rub the bull’s nose in the dirt. It was a real bright, funny notion, yez may well believe, and so the man laughed and haw-hawed till his sides ached. Then he put down his bundle, climbed over the fence and seized the bull's horns. As the ambulance men from the near-by tewn were loading him in, they asked: “What in blazes were you doing in there?” am knowin’ nothing about thot,” weakly re- plied the man, “only ’twas a dom fine thing I had me laugh furst.” It’s a somewhat worn story and Bill Hohenzol- lern may have heard it, but darned if he’s heard the the moral, of which, we are free to announce, the late Robert Fitzsimmons was the recognized author, to wit: hyphenated Americanism.
