old IOREADOR
Will RETIRE
FROM THE ring
tBy Latest MALL

MADRID, Spain. -Bombita. the
most famous toreador in Spain, has
announced his retirement from the
bull ring. He will kill his last bull
October 19 for the benefit of the Bull
Fighters Pawnshop, an institution OF
which he is the founder. Bombita
made his own fortune, estimated at
$780, 600, entirely from the ring, and
has besides given away great sums
in benevolences. r
Bombita's real name is Ricardo
Torres. He was a typesetter as "a
youth, but soon left this calling to
follow his two elder brothers into the
arena. Few toreadors have acquired
such a great reputation as Bombita.
His popularity in Spain is universal.
He is chiefly famous for the grace of
his thrust and for a reckless courage
in giving the bull a chance. He has
been gored 3S times, always, of
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1913-10-21

course, slightly, and it has been pos.
sible for him to save himself by his
acrcbatic. skill even when on the
horns Of the bull. His smile is known
from the boulevards of Paris to the
Puerta del Sol, and is one of the
things about him most often talked
of. During his most reckless feats
Bombita smiles.
The reason for Bombita's retire.
ment is not known. Some of his
friends aver that he is giving up his
career for the sake of a young girl
of Barcelona whom he is about to
marry. -.
Bombita's departure from the ring
comedies with the return to it of an
other famous ,toreador, Mazzantini,
who gave up the calling for politics
eight years ago. During these eight
years MGzzantini has been a munich
pal councillor of Madrid, assistant
deputy mayor of Madrid and a gener-
al councillor. He recently ran for
parliament and just failed of election.
He has suddenly felt the call of his
former profession and intends to re-
turn to 1t.

Tariff and Banking Measures
Have Caused Lawmakers
in Capital to Work
Overtime
By C. S. ALBERT.

Especial Star-Bulletln Correspondence
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 9.
Woodrow Wilson, President OF the
United States, will probably 60 down
in history as the man who, under his
call convened and kept In session the
longest special meeting of the two
bodies in Congress ever cnlled upon
to enact tariff law OF pass upon any
other measure which was demanded
by the people Of this country or
agreed upon as a matter OF party po-
Icy.
The present session OF Congress.
called by the President To frame and
enact tariff bill, has been II session
nearly 100 days, that is, counting
Sundays and holidays which are
usually observed at the National Capt.
toll. but in the present instance. have
not been strictly adhered to, In view
of the demand made upon the Chief
Executive and Congress for the pass
age of the tariff bill at the earliest
stage possible.
In the opinion of the oldest men,
bers of Congress and those who have
been employed at the National Capt.
toll for the past twenty-five years, the
present session promises to eclipse in
length of days that of any other in
the history of the Republic II Is true
that the tariff bill is now the law Of
the land and that the new banking
and currency measure has passed the
House and Is now before the Senate
committee in charge OF the bill. Pres
ident Wilson is insistent that new
banking and currency measure must
pass Congress and receive his sigma
ture before the adjournment OF the
present special session.
From the best information obtain
able, it is generally conceded that the
session now at work will continue
operating within few days Of the
regular session of Congress, which.
under the constitution of the United
States must. convene on the first Mon.
day in December The calendar
shows that this meeting day takes
place on the very first day OF Decem-

BluefeEd seems to have been de-
frauded with a loaded" municipal
charter in much the same manner
that certain job hunters tried to de-
fraud the people in several other
West Virginia cities aDout the time
the legislature last met. The Blue
field Telegraph tells of the plight Of
its government there as follows:
1t is to be hoped that at the first
opportunity the legislature viii be
asked to amend the Bluefeld charter
and give this city commission
form of government we now nave
something that some people have
been misled into thinking is the
commission form, but 1T is not. The
charter is drawback to the proper
development and growth of the city,
and it's thirty-six councilmen, an I'M
wieldy body that realizes the situa-
tion and never meets. However, it
is possible that the council could
be made an effective body If men
would allow themselves to be elected
woh are public spirited and willing
to aid in advancing the welfare Of
the city.

Texas could give New York some
posters on the Sullivan law" says q
visitor to the East from the
Lone Star state. '-The Texas anti
weapon statute, like that of this
state. forbids the sale OF revolvers or
pistols. but the prohibition has never
bothered the hardware dealers in the
least. They simply rent the guns
for ninety-nine years, charging the
price OF, the weapon as the first pay
meat. The court of appeals has held
the rentals to be legal and the bust
ness continues to flourish"
This goes to show that the old
motto OF owning your own home or
other property, seen so much in the
real estate dealers advertisement is
not always what it is cracked up 10
be. 1t shows that 1t is better busi-
ness sometimes to be renters.
