Saturday. There were 2000 persons present.
It was hard to bring the buffalo to the scratch -
The latter got away and ran a distance of two
miles, but was brought back and placed in the en-
closure in front of the bears cage. The latter was
then let loose and springing its victim dispatch
ed him in few seconds. He tore q large piece
out of the unfortunate animal almost Immediately.
The bear was then brought out to race with
horse but the noble animal could not be brought
near his savage competitor, and that part of the
inhuman sport fell through.
