Their countrymen at home may find it dificult to understand the enthusiasm of these venturous young amateurs for what mest Englishmen contan as a cold-
·blooded and cruel sport. But it is the special characteristic of bull-fighting to thrill some deep-lying. derce instinct of human nature that overwhelms the more superficial emotions of pity and disgust.
Before making up my mind to watch bullfight I had beer five times to Spain, I expected it to a horrible, Looking back on what I saw recently, I know that much of it was horrible.

In bull-fighting, superb courage and gratefulness are thrown into splendid relief by being displayed within six inches of brutal death. Except for one phase midway through every encounter, there is nothing in the sport to which any Englishman enn take exception who has ever winged a pheasant, or hunted a fox, or shot big game.

They dart after their enemy with the zest of a terrier; they twist like a polo pany-and at the end of every rush comes that deadly upward sweep of the wide, sharp horns which would spilt the man they are meant for if he did not defeet their aim by an inch or two with a pars of his baffling, dazzling, cape. saw one copidern gored before his com- rades enticed the bull away to charge them instead of his prostrate body.

A BROTHER'S VENGEANCE.
The story of a Russian's dramatic ven- geance for the betrayal of his sister was heard in the Assize Court at Perigueux. on May 8th, when Alexandre Radowski, aged 24, appeared to answer a charge of having murdered his friend Morousof, who was shot dead while going through the marriage ceremony. Radowski, after serving under General Wrangel, came as a refugee to Marseilles, where be met Alorousof, who had been his friend for some years. Morousof was living with Cleopatra Radowski, sister of the accused Laung but eventually after both families had moved to Bordeaux the lovers quar- relled, and Morpusof became betrothed to a French giri, Mlle. Fargeix. For the sake of his sister Radowski repeatedly appealed to Morousof to renounce his new romance and return to Cleopatra Radow- ski, but Morousof persisted in his inten- tion, and went through the civil marriage ceremony with Fargeix. Still Radowski
it not too late to save his sister's bonour by inducing Morousof to marry her, as he held that, according to Russiai custom, it was only a religious marringe which really counted. But Morousof still turned a deaf ear to his friend'a pleading, and some days after the civil marriage Radowaki stood, before the nitar with Morousof at the beginning of the cere many which was to unite the latter to Me Fargeix. In accordance with Rus Rian custom the bridegroom, bride, and. the witness Radowski each drank a glass of wine together, Radoswki calling a toast,
