of the prevalence OF tipping and counts on IT

This fact. of course. should not relieve the
Pullman Company OF the obligation to pay

such a wage would reduce the amount of tip

THE BASEBALL CASES.

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands, Of Standard
oil fame, is now wrestling with the delicate
questions involved in baseball war and coun.
ter-war. 1t will be recalled that fifteen years
ago the great war between National and
American League magnates was ended not by
court proceedings, but by a private gentle
mems" agreement On that basis 1t has re-
manned ever since, and around that agreement
have hinged by mutual consent, the many and
varied rules under which. outside the law, the
baseball business has been carried on. Now
the Federal League, scenting money in the
distance and recalling The success of the Ameri-
can League IS warning on the big fellows
In a clash at law between the two sides case
was presented in Judge Landis court, which,
1t is thought will test the position in the eyes
Of the law Of the socalled baseball monopoly.
In the course of the preliminary trial Judge
Lands, friend of the game, is thought by
close observers TO have foreshadowed his de-
cision by repeated questions to both sides which
seemed to intimate very clearly that for the
best interest Of the game the Judge thought
the case should be compromised out Of court
As time passes there are more evidences that
neither "ins' nor "outs" are exactly satisfied
with their position. and rumors OF compro-
misses, IN that persistent way characteristic of
rumorg, continue to the effect that settle
ment out OF court will be the result
The remarkable fact Is not that someone
should challenge the vast baseball system that
has (nyeIoned hut that n has mot hoe, rboJ.
lenged long before. Attacks in the last three
years indicate that the whole scheme of or

men the significance of observing Mothers
Day-one of the most beautiful celebrations
that is ever held anywhere. To present facts
TO man or woman In advocacy of celebrating
this day by wearing a flower in honor of his
mother is to challenge his fundamental prin-
cipes. The only necessity for Mothers Day
itself is that of reminding people OF its date.
Mothers Day is Sunday.
But there Is a companion interest which pre-.
sents it's cause In Richmond on Saturday pre-.
ceding Mothers Day. Funds derived from the
sale of flowers and buttons on Saturday viii
be used for the Better Babies exhibit work al
the next State Fair. The people of Richmond
who observed that exhibit last year will agree
that there is much to be gained by this work;
that the cause is worthy one. and that the
people Of Virginia should take increasing In
terest in the great problem of child welfare
Therefore to all those thinking people to
whom must finally be made the appeals o8
worthy interests The VirGinidn sounds the call
for the celebration Of Mothers Day, preceded
by contributions for Better Babies
