V9oaI? AS -BV L~OJ1TgBX& The ratal Sport Carried rnnj> rance as Wall as La Spain. (Drom the London Telegraph. ) Bull-baiting and fighting is not yet * over in France any more than in Spain. Despite the outcry that was raised some months ago relative to the dis graceful scenes that occurred in the amphitheatre at Nimes during a bull baiting carnival, the same spectacles have been again witnessed amid the enthusiasm of ten thousand spectators. On Monday, May 10, the famous am phitheatre, a relic of old Roman times, was full'to repletion with a crowd of excited beings who had come to wit n1ss the skill and prowess of the Mata dor Frutos and his conpeers. What was more, three toreras were to appear, this being the first time that women have entered the arenas at Nimes. At three o'clock in the after noon the performances began with a grand procession of Spanish bull fighters, male and female, who rode proudly into the enclosed spac to the sound of military music. Three toreras in fancy costumes, all spark ling with fila- ree and bangles, headed the procession. Then cane the quad rille, cotposed of five toreadors, headed by the great Frutos himself in gorgeous htabiliments. At the sound of a bu?le a splendid black bull of crossed bpanish breed bounded snorting into the ring. The Women immediately set to work with their banderillas, Which they flung at the face and body of the careering toto. The tips of the animal's horne were covered with round knobs of wood or leather while the women were plying their darts, so as to prevent accidents, but these protections were afterward removed in some instances while the men were performing. A second bull, a red one, which was next let loose, made straight at one of the toreras, a young womtan, profes sionally designated as Senorita Benit del Amno, and knocked her over in a second, but not, however, before she had succeeded in planting two lance headed pennons between his eyes. The woman was disengaged with surprising deftness by her male con pautions and returned to the charge with courageous persistence. She was loudly applauded by the public for her performance. A fresh bull was intro. duced, which brought out the finer play. of Frutos, whose first proceeding was to clear the bull with a pole as easily as if he were clearing a fence. .11e then simulated death by lying still on the ground, escaping with marvel oes adroitness as the bull came near him with ferocious intent. The torora Benita del Amo then sat on a chair in the middle of the arena and calmly awaited the onslaught of a fresh animal. In the twinkling of an eye she was caught on the bull's horns aid was tossed high in the air, falling stunned to the ground. This was the most deplorable part of the perforl. ance and no more serious acecidents occurred. The quadrille of men instantly at tracted the bull's attemtion from his prostrate prey anid te wolan was quickly sprinkledl with water or vine gar and rose apparently uninjured from the griol n1.

The perfortier breat,et on :the latter to mesmerize It and declares that when so mesmerized he can compel. It to stand upright on the crown of the hat. He endeavors to make it stand up accordingly, at first without success, but, presently the cigar does actually stand upright, self-supported, on the crown. At command it will bow to the company, salute the ladies on the right, tho ladies on the left, and so on. Tthe performer then asks for a little music, and begins to move the hat about, still crown upward, first in one hand thou in the other. The cigar retains its vertical position, but sways about, sometimes to one side, some times the other, as if endeavoring to keep time to the music. At any moment the performer can request a spectator to take the cigar from the hat and to satisfy himself that it is not attach'd in any way. The seeming mystery rests on the use of a very simple piece of appartus -a little rod about the size of a iead pencil, but ratlr thicker, of ebony or some other heavy wood, and with a needle-point an inch long projecting from one end of it. The performer gets this inside the hat and in his pre tended efforts to balance the cigar on the hat pushes the needle-point up through the crown and into the end of the cigar, which thenceforward sticks upright on the point. Any inclina tion givei to the ebony rod within the hat will naturally make the cigar bond in the opposite direction and so to salute the company, etc. The hand may now grasp the brim of the hit ionly, leaving the ebony rod swinging free withiu the hat, and as it swings it will communicate a swaying motion to the cigar above, as it' aftectd by the music. Whenl the trick is completed you invite sone spectator to take the cigar from the hat. At the same moment that his lingers touch the cigar you withdraw the needle-point from below when the cigar naturally falls and nothing whatever remains to indicate the me;tts that supported it The performer ihmediately begins to brush the hat with his hantdkerchief and under cover of so doing is enabled without difficulty to smuggle away into his sleeve or pocket the little ebony rol. i'1LUCK IN PETTICOATS.

' RN D TIA101og of "j& All thelo T k*a a t ecause the Brt Beat WA'rriWoriu, -Pa., Juno 18.--8ome time since Arthur Higgins, a well-known young nian about town, brought home a bride from Louisville, I{y. She was a pretty and charrIung g rl, but frail and delicate. Yesterday Higgi ns was caught brutally beating her for no other cause than the breaking of a plate. Two of the citizens who witnessed the assault reported the case to the officers of the Eagle hose Company, of which Higgins was a member. Last night about 6 o'clock a false alarm of fire was given and among others who began working at the brakes was Higgins. Ac cordiug to previous arrangements he was seized by two or three while others pro duced a large crockery crate under which he was placed and the stream of water turned upon him. By this time several hundred citizens, and as many women as men, were assembled enjoying the fun. Higgins inade his escape after a few minutes, but was soon caught and held while the swift stream was put in his face. After a thorough soaking he was allowed to escape. The fireman of the lire company then called the organization to order and it was moved and seconded that Iijgins be expe'led in disgraee. It was carried by a shout of yeas which was heard through the whole village. Iliggins nmade a hasty sneuk through the alleys for homae. Later in the evening he was suspended from the Order of United Workmen, to which he belonged. The women held a private indignation meeting this evening and will see that Mrs. Higgins is protected. The business men of the town have pledged themselves to de fray the expense of sending Mrs. Higgins home to Louisville, Ky. Inlporltnt Knlrond Movemaent.
