the fatal thrust once and got his
knife into the beasts rumpsteak IN

Mexicans shrfeked with delight as the
bull sank to his knees and vomttted
quarts of blood. 1t was truly noble
and inspiring spectacle. After the
bull fight we took look through Ia
Juana and CHANGED upon the Casino,
where faro and roulette were in fun

. The Newport News Daily Press and
the Norfolk virginian-P Pilot. and per-
haps other papers. are worrying over
the possibility of a taboo on liquor by
the press convention which meets
this month in Newport News There
Is an indication that the newspaper
men of Virginia will vote that liquor
and wine shall have no part in their
banquets. and two Of the newspaper
men who are going to vote that way

and Norfolk papers above mentioned.

should take such action; we believe
the policy of the majority OF papers
in Virginia Is dry and such policy
must be praehced az well as taught.
II Ia little premature to predict what
action will be taken, but the question
is almost sure to be taken up and we
believe there will be little opposition.
The premature discussion OF the
question may be In the nature OF a

AN EPOCH MAKING CONVENTION.

is by no means without the range of
the highest probabilities. 1t is the
goal to which the Atlantic City con-
vention looks.
Is it not remarkable that there
should be held at the most popular
resort In America a convention which
will be attended by as many people
as ever attended any convention in
this country? AT first glance it does
seem remarkable, but when one con-
siders the fact that the fight for tenn
perance is a fight for principle, right
principle, and that the right must
always prevail, 1t is not remarkable.
Nothing in the temperance move
ment is more remarkable than the
fidelity with which the Anti-Saloon
League nas stuck to it's single issue.
the determination of the beverage H.
quor traffic. 1t has been charged
with all sorts of things. 1t mas been
besought TO espouse all sorts of move
ments, TO endorse the private am
billions of all sorts of political leaders
and parties, but it has driven straight
to the goal. This fact, more than any
other, is responsible for the remark
able success that mas greeted the eff
forts of this truly great organization.
Fidelity to the same principle will in
sure It's final and complete success.
| II is then a right principle, rightly
presented. that has shaken the world
with the power Of truth, has convert
ed unbeiievers. has moved govern

happiness and peace. Surely with
such Lesson of the triumphs OF right

people will never again doubt the prac-

THE SPLIT SEASON.

The split season ia becoming more
popular with baseball leagues. This
NAV be due to the exigencies of the
situation more than to the properties.
but we will forbear TO peer beneath
the surface.
PsychoIogically speaking, the split
season Is wise. AS an inciter OF base
ball interest IL could be surpassed only
by an every-monrh season. with the
winners playing a general round at the
close to decide the whole affair. Each
additional season increases the chance
of every team to win. In a split sea
son there are three exciting periods:
first the close of the first half. then
the close of the second half. and final
lly the grand finale. Now obviously
the more decisive periods provided the
larger will be the total interest-which
lis synonymous with the total receipts.
The Virginia League and the Caro-
lima League have both decided on
split seasons this year. The South
Atlantic League has several times
played a double-pennant race. Doubt
I less many other leagues have at va
/ ious times found the expedient sat
iisfactory. 1t is to be reckoned with
as a new feature of baseball. and may
Iforeshadow a new system of deciding
championships by dividing the whole
season into periods of a few weeks
each, and from this system there may
develop a new method of calculating
percentages.

The national convention of the Anti
Saloon League of America. whose ses-
sions begin at Atlantic City today,
will doubtless go down in history as
the greatest gathering Of temperance
workers In the history of America, II
not OF the world. The greatest leaders
of one OF the greatest causes In the
world will meet with others who share
their views. and plans will be laid for
the advancement Of temperance and
morality, whose echo will be heard for
scores and hundreds of years.
The convention which opens to-
day marks a distinct period. 1t
marks the end OF the day when tenn
perance and prohibition have been
minor issues. 1t opens the day whose
dawning has already been visible for
months, when the temperance issue
win be one of the greatest questions
before the world. Not even the great
est military war OF history has been
able to distract attention from this
greatest war against evil influences
In civic, home, and church life.
The progress of the temperance
cause In the past few years has been
marvellous Like a crysalis the prin-
cipie has burst almost into full power
