BULL BATTING.
A Brutal "sport" That Was Popular In
Former Days.

A Brutal sport" That Was Popular In
Former Days.
The principle Of bull batting was ex.
tremely simple. A collar was fasten-
ed round the bulls neck, and by this
the bull was attached by a rope to a
stake. The rope varied from nine to
fifteen feet in length and therefore al
lowed the bull but little movement.
The audience was accommodated in a
circle or ring"
The bulldogs duty was to grasp the
bulls nose, and when he had succeed
ed In obtaining a grip he was required
to maintain his hold, despite the eff
forts Of the larger animal to dlslodge
him. The bull awaited the attack with
lowered horns, which the dog sought
to evade by crouching toward the head
of his opponent. Sometimes the bull
managed to get his horns under or
into the dog, which was then thrown
high into the air.
Writers state that dogs had been
tossed up to a height of thirty or forty
feet. The dog, II he survived, would
''retire hurt On the other hand, once
the dog, which was trained to grip only
the nose, obtained a hold his adver.
sary would have little chance of shak,
ing him Off. The bull would whit the
dog In the air and struggle frantically
TO wrench his nose free from the ter
rible grip. When, from sheer exhaus
ton, the dog dropped clear of the bull
a fresh dog was sent into the ring.

1t is claimed on Mr.. Seydefs behalf
that the shooting was in self defense;
that after his argument with Demer-

him, advanced toward Seydel in such

ran back a distance of fifty feet to his

After Demerond dropped dead with
the two bullets from the brokers'
pistol in his body, Seydel went over to
Frank Seeley's place and got his man,
Abrams, to drive him to Highland
with the intention of coming to Pough-

arrival at Highland he changed his

RIOTING ON THE
GRAND TRUNK
CAUSESALARM

South Bend, Ind, July 25.-As
climax to a night and a day of riotin,
In the yards of the Grand Trunk rail
way In which a freight, train of fit,
cars wasseut into ten sections, Pinker
toa detectives stoned and Ave passefl
ger trains stalled for hours, an attesnp
was made to derail eastbound passen
ger train No. 8, known as the Detroit
and New York express. The engineer
by chance saw the thrown switch III
time to bring his train to a stop and
prevent a terrible catastrophe. When
he left the engine to Investigate he
was stoned by the mob, In which were
many foreigners, but the timely ap-
pearance Of the police prevented him
from being seriously hurt.

spine. Freel is In the hospital.
A mob which c~ongregated at ohFera,
the first station OF the Grand Trunk

burned several cabooses, but efforts
to fire freight cars were made fruftless
by the arrival of detectives and the
fire department.
The rioting began when a freight
train of fifty cars entered the city
under full speed, evidently with the
intention Of rushing through South
Send without a stop. Shortly after
passing the station 1t was discovered
that the caboose had been lost and
a stop was made to pick up the miss
ing cab. Almost Immediately a gang
of men ran between the cars, released
thus making it impossible to move the
train. At the same time the Pinker-
ton detectives who showed themselves
were stoned. Realizing that the situa-
ton was desperate, local agent @. A.
