SU VIS % Y I‘tiKT'i IV rixis terrible fight of a bull with _ 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. Jititliim’* Mijiiixi 1 Whun -.
