The first elephant fight during the reign of ? the present gaekwar took place at JJaroda, India. A lnrge arena of about 1,500 yards by 1,000 was inclosed by a pukka wall of about ten or fifteen leet in height. The en trances were just enough to allow an elephant to pass through, and were blocked by cross bars of considerable thickness. At a given signal two ele phants were let loose. No sooner did the animals catch sight of each other than they roared and rushed forward until they came within a foot of hue another, when they made a dead slop. Alter one or two attempts on both sides, one of the animals got his trunk well over the other's tu.-ks. The tusks then mat, and the object of the ani mals wns to get a good grip ami push on. Tins was done about, twenty or thirty times, und the smaller animal pinned the other to tho earth. A- the animals separated and commenced another attack, it was apparent that the smaller one was getting the belter of it, and he brought his antagonist to bay in u few minutes afterward. The signal was then given to remove the elephants. Another cotip-c was then let loose,.but the extreme weakness of the animals brought the encounter to a very speedy termination.
