fighter, made his debut here Sunday

The first bull Gonzales was to kill

it's horns and threw him with great
violence. 1t at first was thought the
Infatuated animal had caught Gonzales
on his horns, goring him, and the ex-
citement among the spectators was in
tense. The animal was just on the point
of rushing at the PROSTATE matador
when another matador performed the
act called quite which consisted of
drawing the bulls attention to him by
displaying a red cape and then dis
patching the bull.
This is a performance which when
we'll done always awakens the en-
thusiasm of the spectators, and men
threw money, hats, cigars and other
things to the second matador, while
women threw him flowers. fans and
pieces of jewelry. Gonzales was not
seriously hurt.
