A NEW SPORT

A sport that is a sort of humane bull fighting is to be brought to Paris from the Landes, those great

plains'

that stretch between

Bordeaux and the Spanish frontiers Its practitioners, who are locally famous, are called ecarteurs, which may perhaps be translated as stretchers." Instead of bulls, highly agile, bold, and fierce mountain heifers are used; import ed from the wilder parts of Spain. They are quite dangerous, and one of them, the other day, escaping from its enclosure, killed the first person it'met.

No weapons are used, and no harm is done to these creatures of any kind. But as soon as any one of them is turned out into the arena it charges like a buil in, a bull fight the first man it sees.

Here the sport begins. The object is that the stretchers" should avoid the charge. Their
