OPERA SUCCEEDS BULL FIGHT Famous Arena in Mex.co City Will No Longer Be Scene of Brutal

Slaughter.

The Tentro el Toro in Mexico City, once one of the most pretentious of hull light arenas, Is now the home of grand opera as a result of President Carranza's decree that hull fight' should cease. Interspersing grand opera, dancers nud concert artisthave appeared iu the arena, and it is .stated that these various forms of nuiusoiuem will he offered until some I definite action is taken us to the fit- I

ture of hall fighting.

It was in this arena that what Is said lo he one of the most remarkable spectacles iu the history of the sport | was staged. A hull, El Bonito, known | as one of the fiercest fighters, on being j brought into the arena charged and killed three horses and injured as many men without being touched by the estoque of any matador. As the bull stood bellowing defl ance imd with no one apparently willing to attack him, Miguel Hallo, a picador who was a spectator In one of the boxes, leaped unarmed into the inelosiire. In his outstretched hand he carried two lumps of sugar, which he nonchalantly offered to the hull. The animal .suddenly ceased Its bellowing and in a few moments docilely licked Die sugar from Hallo's hand. The latter returned unharmed to his box amid the plaudits of the spectators.

But the reader would, I fear, find this an uncomfortable and perhaps a tiresome trip, even to read of, for I traveled most of the way in freight cars (of the type known to our soldiers in France, accommodating • loriy-fivo homines or eight ehevaux”) on a trawler (which was absolutely the most uncomfortable means of transportation that I had ever endui'ed) and on a British “destroyer" which might very fitly have horn ' St. Paul’s name before he changed if. in tin" days when he was “breathing cut

Anglo-lrigh Tunnel. Not only is It thought that the longf."liked of tunnel between England and France will he constructed at no reniote date, hut there Is also talk of a | Mntael between England and Ireland. Tills would restore to a sligfit extent the geograpfeieal union that existed be tween the two countries in one geological age thousands and thousands of )‘‘ars ago. Great Britain and Ireland were then separated only by a great

valley.

It Is proposed to carry the tunnel flora some point on the roast of I.nneashire to the nearest point In Antrim or down on the Irish coast, a submarine length of 24 miles. One of the great benefits of the tunnel Would he that It would shorten the transatlantir Journey hy at least 48 hours. It would also help the Irish cattle trade and the shipping of perishable goods, especially fish, to English markets. Estimates of the cost of the proposed tunnel vary from $35,000,000 to $80,000,000.
