DRAMATIC ANIMALS.
How a Soared Wildcat and a Fierce
Bull Dog Entertained an Audience.
[Gold Hill (Nev.) Nervs.]
There was a fight advertised to
come off at the Alhambra Theatre
Sunday afternoon, between an East
ern fighting bulldog named Turk
and a forty-two pound wildcat, a
vicious brute, for $100 a sido-that
is, the cat and dog wore to fight for
their lives and men bot $100 a side
on the result. The fight was to be
followed by a grand olio on the
stage. It was an immonso bill, and
it drew. In due Lime the cat vas in
troduced upon the stage and was
immediately followed by Turk ; but
at the first kiss of the dog the cat
took to the audience, and the olio,
instead of being poformed by the
troupe, was done by the spoectators,
tooth and toe-nail accompaniment.
The first bound of the cat took it
upon the piano of the orchestra.
The pawer of ivory left the swelling
strain unfinished, and turned a back
handspring over among the audi
ence. The next leap of the "var
mint" was at the contrabass, and
both player and instrument went
down instanter with broken beads.
The cat lingered lovingly a monient
among the strings as if to test. their
quality, and then sprang out among
the audience. Then began an oli'
in dead earnest, but not the ono adver -
tised, although the fight was over.
It consisted of ground and lofty
tumbling, leapfrog and such liko
feats of dexterity, all having a single
objet-to amuse the audience by a
glimpse of sunlight out of doors and
under the free light of Heaven once
more. It was perfectly satisfactory
as a whole, and each player did his
best. Time-shortest on record
1:69. Everything went off well,
espocially the audience. The cat
was found a few minutes lator look
ing out of one of the boxes and
waiting for an encore.
