BOLL FIGHTS IN AMERICA.
Bull-fighting exhibitions at Omaha are drawing enormous crowds nightly, under the patronage of Governor Savage, of Nebraska, and the Governor of lowa (says the “Express” New York correspondent). The managers announce that they will make a tour of the whole country, and have already fixed dates for Chicago and Coney Island. Bull fights arc also taking place daily at the PanAmerican Exposition at Buffalo, but in this case no bloodshed is permitted. The Omaha Grows are more realistic, and the other day one of the toreadors was nearly gored to death, and now lies in the hospital. The exhibitions have aroused a tremendous outcry, Pulpit and Press alike denouncing their brutality and the “ lust of blood.”
