CHARLIE MEADOWS
Arizona Republican Newspaper
October 3, 1895

"Arizona Charlie", otherwise known as Charlie Meadows, the well 
known Tonto Basin cowboy is now returned from Mexico where he 
has been starring for over a year and is now working Colorado 
with a Wild West show. He appears to be decidedly in the swim, 
despite occasional setbacks, one of which happened in Denver 
Sunday.

He had advertised a Wild West show, to be followed by a genuine 
bull fight and a large crowd assembled at the Denver wheel club 
grounds to witness the exhibition.

Humane Agent Thompson entered the ring just as the bull fight 
began and the crowd, seeing him, began to hoot and yell.  
Charlie and his assistants tried to chase Thompson out by a 
show of force, but the officer had addistance and the 
participants wre placed under arest and brought to the city, 
amid the jeers of a disappointed audience.
