Chesapeake Bay, landing on the shore
opposite from this fort.
In weather conditions unfavorabla
for flying, the daring bird-man short
ly after 8 o'clock glided from the
platform erected on the front of the
big black cruiser, swooped down like
an immense bird Of prey until he
touched the water, then rose rapidly
into the misty air of the lower bay
and was off in the direction of the
broad Atlantic.
Four minutes after having taken
his sudden farewell of the Birming~

Intermittent rain throughout the

continuous fog almost compelled

Since it is more than probable
that the liquor question will be an
issue at the April election, we desire
to state Our position in the matter.
The Review will favor neither one
side or the other. Anything we
might say in favor Of one side or
the other should have little or no
weight anyway, because a man Is
not a man" who does not know
how he should vote on this ques-
ton, and IL he can be swayed TO
either one side or the other by wha,
the editor might say, he is not fit 10
vote. II is a question that all are
familiar with, aud II is as old as
the hills. No new light can be
brought out, apparently. II is for
the people to decide whether a dry
town or a wet one is best, whether
conditions are better in wet town
or In dry one. We have all had
experience in both during the past
couple of years, aud you should
Judge for yourselves. The Review
will take the middle of the road"
on the issue. Not because we fear
to take sides. but because IL would
be poor policy, poor judgment aud
of no avail to do so. II either side
desires to air their views IN the
Review they may do so at Our regu-
lar advertising rates, but our edi-
torial column will surely not be
used in advocating either one side
or the other.

Whatever other result may have
been obtained, il is likely that
Teddy's fierce desire to kill for the
sake of killing will be satiated for
some little time to come. The
reason game is getting SO scarce in
the United States is because there
have been SO many men with a
mania like Roosevelt's for killing
defenseless animals. Certainly
Teddy has not raised himself in the
estimation Of the general public by
his senseless killing and manning
