BULL FIGHTING
Tame Affair Compared with Spanish Pastime.

From the PHILADELPHIA Public Ledger.
A Malayan bull fight, in contrast to a
Spanish bull fight, is a comparatively
tame affair. There is little of a show or
pageant about it; no huge inclosed ring,
with its tiers and tiers of seats flied
with fashionable Spanish beauties in
graceful mantillas waving multi-colored
fans; no poor, blindfolded horses TO be
tortured, no picadors, no dart-planting
banderilleros, and no espadas to risk their
lives in so-cal1ed sport
In Malaga the bulls and buffaloes only
follow their own natural instincts, and
fight with their own kind, without being
goaded on to the combat by having darts
plunged into them, and horses not being
used, there are none OF the brutal and dis
gusting sights TOO often witnessed in a
Spanish bull ring 1t is. in fact, bull-fight-
ing au naturel, stripped of all artificial
cruelties, and If less exciting is infinitely
