BULL FIGHTING
This Strange Sport as Viewed by
Spanish Eyes.

The American. the Englishman. in fact al
foreigners who witness this strange Spanish
sport. are Mortified by its cruelty and wrong
There is the grand heroism of the noble brute
in an unfair, unequal contest with brutal men.
while old, decrepit horses are blindfolded to be
torn, trampled, and left to die.
And yet, before we pass condemning sentence
upon all who witness and partake in this bloody
pastime. let us once try to view the scene with
9 Spaniards eyes, and try to see what he sees
in the whole affair, says writer in the Phila-
delphia Times We shall be greatly helped in
this by the following article, which is the
translation of an account of bull-fght as
given by regular reporter for Havana news
paper. A few Introductory remarks are given
in order to make the account itself more clear.
At the appointed hour a grand flourish of
trumpets and burst of martial music announces
the entrance of the procession of bull-fghters,
who enter the great arena all in gorgeous attire,
some mounted and some on foot. At each
entertainment there are generally four bulls to
be killed, and with each bull there are three
distinct and separate acts. The first is per-

In the House, Mr.. Hatch, Chairman of the
Committee on Agriculture. called up the con-
ference report on the Agricultural appropria-
tion bill. The only point of difference shown
by the report was the Senate amendment APP
propriating 81, 100000 for the determination of
the Russian thistle in the Northwestern
States.
Mr.. Hatch asked that the House further
insist on its disagreement to its amendment.
Mr.. Gear Qowa, R. moved that the House
agree to this amendment. He made brief
vital importance to the Dal,otas. north Iowa
and other Northwestern States, said he. that
the Russian thistle should be exterminated. 1t
threatened the whole Northwest.
Mr.. Hatch in reply said that the Committee
on Agriculture had carefully considered this
subject and had rejected the proposition.
After some debate, Mr.. Gears motion was
defeated.
Mr.. Cummings Chairman of the Committee
on Naval Affairs, called up bill to promote
the efficiency of the naval militia The bill
provided that the Secretary of the Navy be
authorized to loan to States, under such regnla-
tions as he might prescribe, vessels of the Navy
not suitable or required for general use. Mr..
Cummings explained that the Secretary of the
Navy, without authorization, had turned over
the monitor Nantucket to North Carolina, and
the old training ship New Hampshire to New
York. Other States were asking for vessels,
and he desired the authority of law for these
requests to be granted. The bill was passed.

When the bull charged at him, he only sue

then Withdrawing it and thrusting again, he
finally put an end to the life which had cost
him so much perspiration.
Black as the conscience of an undertaken was
the second bull. A fine fellow! But what a
pity that he had not been allowed TO grow for
another year. In a moment he had received
three pixies from MazantiEi, but the rider was
dismounted twice. The matadors linen on FOOT
distracted the attention of the bull, and Viruta
in his turn piked him four times Boto, ia be-
ginning the next act made several slj ps with the
-banderillss. Auillo and Pincho who are good
banderillas, nailed him. though, the first with
two banderillas, little to one side of the

formed by men on horseback, who carry stout
sticks between two and three yards in length,
and in the end of these are sharp spikes about
tbree-fourths of an inch long. When the bull
charges at the horse, the rider attempts to stop
him by spiking him, and very often horse and
rider are rolled in the dust and the poor horse
awfully maDgled.
The second act is that of placing the bande-
rillas. These are light sticks about foot long.
and have long strips of bright-colored tissue
paper fastened to them, but in one end is q
sharp barbed iron point. The act consists in
facing the bull when he makes charge, fasten-
ing pair of banderillas into his back or neck.
and then getting out of the way, when the
two stick fast and the paper flies in the wind
as he rushes at another man to have the act
repeated.
The third act is the killing, which the arti-
Gle sufficiently explains. 1t requires the great
est amount of skill, as it is necessary to strike
exactly the right spot The effort is made to
reach over and thrust the sword into the bull
back of the shoulders. so that its point will find
Its way TO the animals heart. This with the
bull at a full run, is of course very dangerous.
This bnll-fght took place at Regla, Sunday,

two men happened to be chosen, but they both
demonstrated that they did not know little
bit about bulls.
1t was shortly after halfpast when the
signal was given to begin the fight, and beau
tiful bull appeared in the ring from the herd
of Don AnastSsio Martin. Red, eye like part
ridge, and well armed, he came with rush
and grew fierce after little punishment
Viruta piked him three times, after which he
suddenly turned, and, wOunding Virutas horse
brought him 10 the ground. His companion,
Daoiz, opened large cash in the shoulder of
the animal, placing beside four good pixies and
making one slip, which was allowed to pass I'M
noticed by the president. For this the man
ought to have been fined by the president or

The bull becoming wild with such internal
punishment, it was with the greatest difficulty
that Boto and Bienvenida could accomplish

him good stab, but was disarmed again, and
had to run to the barrier. Another stab, and
still another. and this proved to be fatal, but
the sword, only. half way in, was pushed in by
one of the other men. This same bull nearly
killed Anilio at one time as he was attempting
to get behind the barrier.
1t may be seen that this was a good fight on
the part of tho bulls. If one and four had been
better played they would have afforded more
sport to the spectators There will be another
fight next Sunday, and we shall hope for a
larger crowd to see it.

The bill for the exclusion and deportation Of

| planned its provisions. There were no politics
| in the bill, and he favored it because he be-
! lieved it was better than the House bill.
Both the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Secretary Of State were opposed to consular
inspection, and he thought it unwise to i'm
pose this duty on the consular service, and
thought it should be delegated to Treasury
agents. After some discussion the bill was
passed.

last of the appropriation bills, was sent to Con-
gress.
Mr.. Catchings. Chairman Of the Committee
on Rivers and Harbors, presented resolution

Mr.. Woodward, of North Carolina who was to
have called up the contested election case of
Williams vs.. Settle, from the fifth North Caro-
lima District, to-day, the case would not be
called until December next. The Republican
members of the committee had agreed to this
arrangement.
The conference report on the river and har-
bill, amended so to include the lost amend
ment reducing the appropriation for Boston
