attack when the horse is first
thrown; and the man on horse
back who is now fastened down
has his helper who has been fol-
lowing him around just inside
the fence that is between the
cement wall and the wooden
fence; and the helper slides out
of that peneal set in as stated,
and drags the man out from un-
der the horse, and they two try
to get the horse up; If able to
stand up the horse is led out
either gate to the outside, even
though his entrails are bulging
out and hanging and dangling
around; if the horse cannot get
up, one of the men stick a knife
| in the back of the head and sew
ers the spinal cord at the base OF
the brain, and, presto, the horse
| is dead and out of his misery.
The Judge of the fight is not over
particular to have the bull make
a serious pass at the other horse
in the ring. after one is killed or
badly wounded; but often the
bull does so on his own motion,
and wounds the other horse.
ANY kind Of demonstration at
the other horse will suffice, how
ever so that the other horse is
often saved. The horses do not
stand any show TO get out OF the
way; they are old worn out
horses, and generally poor OF
course. 1t is not intended that
they shall be active. Ihave seen
the bull come back to the dead
horse, after the man and saddle
are removed. and just toss the
, poor limp body around with q
vengeance. The bugle calls again,
the horses being used no more
, for this bull; one dead, one leo
out alive perhaps; the one alive
will get his" when the next bul
is in the ring perhaps. The mex,
: change of bugle call is for the
