The combat took place, Sunday, Sept. Si, on the Una o( "fihody Bunw, about Are mllw from Xahlequab, and was wftomed by a crowd of 200 or 900 peoplewhltM, mixed breeds and full Mood Indiana. A iw aeep, it wide and 88 fwt lens had been due at the tdm nf cornfield. Bode plank and fog teats were arranged around the pit and after th fashion of those used In a circus. Sbectftv tors were required to pay a fee of otntft.

The fight was announced to commence exactly at noon, but there was a delay. owing to some uoxnown cause, and "time" was not called till near a o'clock. In the meantime the crowd had Imbibed pretty freely of Burns' "double rectified'' and one or two bloodless knock-downs were indulged in. At a p. m.

"Rhcdy" called out, "Let in the b'ar" and jmmedlatitly the door of the pit was thrown open, ami Bruin, a splendid black bear, rushed in At the corners at the pit above were with hevy clubs of oak to prevent the bear from leaping out of the pit: On two sides ward in tbelr movements. The bear, a coated animal. og aw pounds, stood looking toward the too of the pit wistfully for liberty. The bull was a black and white, rather small, but ferocious looking animal, with short horns and weighed 1600 pounds. As the bull jumped into the arena every voice was hushed, and every eye fixed on the brutes.

The two animals glared wildly at each other, and, after an interval of a few moments, the bull moved slowly toward the bear with the intention of making an attack. Sixteen rounds were fought between the animals, and are given as near as Mr. Crosby recollects them, Flrt Round. The bear sprang quickly around and faced the bull, which incited that animal to action. He stood upon his hind legs, growled savagely, walked deliberately up to the bull, struck him on the side of the head, knocking him down, and tben retreated.

Second Round. The bull roared with madness, regained bis feet and dashed toward Bruin. He gored him in the sides, felling him to the earth, but made no attempt to take advantage of his antagonist while down. Third Round. The result of the second round completely surprised the bear, and he lay upon the ground until the men with the poles compelled him to get up and renew the battle.

The bull sent the bear four feet in the air. When he fell the bull made another charge. Bruin retaliated by sending his long claws mercilessly Into the bull's neck and tore a three-inch slit in one of his ears. Beads of blood stood out upon the bull's neck and gore dripped from his wounded ear. The fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh rounds were uneventful, the results being small scratches and wounds.

The eighth round was fought with fury, and lasted a quarter of an hour, First the bear and then the bull looked as the death blow was about to be given, hut, by a strategic movement on the part of the one, the designs of the other were thwarted, and tbe long round terminated In what might be called a dead heat. After a short rest the ninth round was fought, and theD the tenth, both of which were very tame The Eleventh Round The bear was panting and appeared to be weary of the fight Both animals were covered with blood. In trying to drive the bear out for another round some of the men cried Let him rest," but this was not oer the bear flew at him and fell to the earth. The bull rolled him over and over until he groaned with pain. Bruin bounded to his feet and into the corner at the first opportunity.

The Twelfth Bound. In thf round Bruin added new wound to the bull' torn ear, and the latter was willing to withdraw. Brum lanced tbe bull's neck in a dozen places with his keen claws, and, to all appearances, the bull was completely subdued. Bruin seemed to be proud of bis victory, and on his bind legs paraded about the track. The Thirteenth Round.

This was the last round and tbe most desperate of all. The round lasted but a few minutes, Every movement made by he infuriated bull seemed to have its effect Finally the two beasts became separated. The bear stood upon his bfnd leg, both eyes being displaced by tbe horns of his antagonist. While Broin was standing, moving hi bead to and fro, not knowing In which direction to move, the bull plunged towards his antagonist, stuck both horns Into bt bodr, lifted him up and threw him to tbe top of tbe pit among the spectators, Tbe bear wnthed in agony, but ft was soon over, for the horns of the hull had touched a vita) spot, tnd poor Brain was vanquished by death. ih Dui, wuowmg wild pain, wnsm- sun, wm on'-woods baaed ftp eu from me pit ana nis The crowd remarks! for tbftt latitude, lincered a of tbe conflict for Dearly an hear, aad dt- parsea nw aim wing taasr i over tbe entertainment pro td by Rbody Bums.
