The SpanisI, Bull.

The bulls used for fighting purposes ara
a specially selected specially cared for
class. They are all pedigreed. Andalusia
is especially the district of the bull. Here,
ut the age of one year, the young bulls are
separated from the heiiers, branded with
the owners mark and turned out loose on
the plains to Craze with others of their own
age.
When year older, the young bulls are
gathered together in order that their met
tie and fighting qualities may be tested
One Of them is separated from the herd and
chased by man on horseback, who by the
skillful use of a blunted lance overthrows
the escaping bull, whereupon another rider
comes i'm front of the animal with sharp
or lance tC withstand the expected attack
If the bull on regaining his feet attacks
The rider twice, it is passed as a fighting an.
imal, but if he turns tail and runs off, then
it is set aside to be killed or to be used in
agricultural work.
Each bull that has stood the test success.
fully Is then entered in the herd book, with
a description of its appearance, and receives
name-such as Espartero, flamenco, and
the like. This process Of careful selection
goes on from year TO year until the bull il
years old, when, should its mettle still
prove true, it is ready for the arena. 4
good "warrantable" 5-year-old bull for the
fighting rings costs from $40 to as0.-New

The long struggle over the tariff
bill came to close OF 6'o'clock last
Monday evening when the house by
1862 to lO5 decided to discharge the
house conferees from further consid-
Grafton of the bill, recede from its
opposition to the ga senate amend
ments and agree to the same. 1t was
a complete Wet Dry for the senate.
The house made an absolute surren-
der. The result grew directly out
of the senatorial course of events at
the senate end of the capitol precipi-
tated by Senator Hill on Friday.
Up to that time the conferees had
stood firm against the senate amend
ments especially on the three disput-
ed schedules of coal, iron ore and
sugar and the. temper and voice of the
house was for war-war to the end.
But the indications that the demo
Gratis of the senate might be unable
to longer hold majority of votes in
line for even the senate bill and
that that bill was in desperate jeop-
ardy forced the house democrats to
immediate action. The democratic
conferees of the house at last admit.
ted they were beaten anu that an
other vote could not be risked in the
senate; that it must either be senate
bill or no bill.
