_ LIOX<
Tub African Lion Vanquished in a
Bmort but Savaoe Combat—lle-
INFORCED BA' HIS Mate AND THE
Hattee Reneavkd—Another Vic
tor v for the Texas Bui.i,.
Antonio, Texas, April 14.
•San. Antonio Was to day again exci
ted over a lion and bull ffbilit. After
the of last week, in which the
celebrated Texas bull, “Old Tigo,” i
whipped an African lioness, the lov
ers ot this tierce sport and others
governed by curiosity, have had a
desire to witness another combat be
tween the Texas king bull and the
well known African lion, “Old
George.” who is reported to be the I
most ferocious animal of his kind i
in the United States. Before Id a. m., :
tho crowd began to assemble at the ar
ena, which is just three miles from
the oity. and at 12 in., a large t rong
had gathered. The amusement of
the day was begun by a fight bet ween
two Mexican bulls, to give a relish for
the richer feast, of horrors to come,
but the bulls were too tame to fight—
j rather civilized bulls—.and after
! many vain efforts on the part of the
trained bull fighters to goad theta to
exasperation, this first part of the
programme terminated.
Shortly after 3 p. m., about 2,0)0
| people had assembeld for the grand
event of the day. “Old George,” the
lion, was prowling about and
growling within the oirle of the larg
iron cage,GJfeetin diameter, which
1 1 ad,beenerected for the oombat at great
expense. Ttie sporting fraternity
were freely offering to take ventures
on the result at three and even live
to one on the bull, and found no few
takers. The bull being lassoed in an
adjoining field, was brought with
great difficu'ty to the ground and
forced into the cage. The lion qni< t
ly eating a piece of raw beef, was
separated trom “Old Tige” by a can
vass curtain stretched across t< e
stage. As soon as the ropes W“iC
taken from the bull’s horns this can
vass partition was drawn aside. The
attack was at once begun by “Tige,”
who at once rushed upon the lion
and tossed him 10 feet into the air.—
The monarch of the forest fell heavi
ly to the ground, but immediately
sprung up and made a fearful spring
at the bull. The Texan received him
on. ids horns and again gored
him in the side and threw him sav
agely against the iron liars, bleeding
and badly bruised, and then virtually
pul an end to the combat, for the fe
rocious “Old George” had the fight
effectually knocked out of him, and
refused to come to time, although he
was repeatedly chalenged by the
Texan. Cheer after cheer arose from
the excited crowd in the ampithea
tre, every one of whom had mounted
the seats when the bull proved him.
seif the victor.
The canvass was then drawn be
tween the combatants, and the lion
ess that (encountered this same ‘puli
last week was tufned in with ;her
mate. The curtain was again, drawn
aside, and the pair were turned
against the bull. “Old Tige" looked
for a moment at his old antagonist,
and then rushed savagely upon er,
tossing her into the air and breaking
tvro of her ribs. lie then turned
Upon “Old George;, the mSneater,"
and gave hi* another to9a into the
air, badly goring Lim. The lions
then crouched, in a corner of tlie cage
completely cowed, and “Old Tlge”
deliberately approacaed and smelled
them, but did not renew the attack,
lie stood pawing the dirt in token of
bis victory.
The bull is terribly savage and
dangerous. He is ten years old, and
has killed five other bulls in single
but extremely fierce combats, lie is
of mixed Texas and Buffalo blood,
and is larger than the average Texas
bull. When he was Being brought
into the fighting pen to-day, he rush
ed upon a crowd and badly gored a
man who was assisting in holding
him with lassoes. "Ti e Hons are from
Africa, and of very large size, but are
old. They are the pair that killed
their keeper about three years ago in
Tennessee. “Old George" has but
one eye, and this fact was much
against him in the fight. The bull
before entering on his combat, was
on thres legs, having been badly
wounded by the lioness last week,
and not haviug yet recovered. Bat
when he charged upon his antagonists
he seemed to forget all about his
wounded limb.
The next fight will be between
this champion bull and t hree noted
Mexican bull-fighters. The sympa
thy is all witti the bull, and the ex
pectation is that it will go hard with
the “greasers.” After that combat
the community here will enjoy a lion
and tiger fight. Texans are quite
high-flavored in their sports, and
care little how many bulls, Hobs and
Mexicans are whipped.
The fig it took place In this atnpi
theatre on Saturday, April 6, between
“Old Tige” and the lioness, witnessed
by about. 1,00) persons. On that
occasion the bull was in the pen and
the cage of the lioness was backed
up to it, and the communicating
doors thrown open. The lioness
rushed out behind the bull, and with
a spring threw herself on his haun
ches. “Old Tige” was tough, and
the claws of the savage lioness did
not easily penetrate the hide. Turn
ing quickly about, the bull bounded
after the lioness and caught her upon
his horns and tossed ter high in the
air. She prepared to sprirfg a sec
ond time, but t"e bull was too quick
for her, and a second time he tossed
her. T 'is time the lioness was hurt
as she fell, and s' e retreated to the
bars of the cage. The bull pressed
her, when she rose upon tier hind
legs, unable to meet the attack by an
advance. The bull drove at her,
forced her down, and pinned her to
the ground witti his horns, and gored
her until he was called off. The
lioness was badly whipped, but not
seriously .injured. The fight lasted
12 minutes. It was believed that hi
starving the lioness, to make her
savage, the starving was overdone,
and * er strengt and ferocity reduced.
