99—-TEN PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHIN THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Clreulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more 2 all the other papers published in Washington. Bishop Hurst, the leader in the project of establishing in this city a Methodist National University, is sanguine of its success, Indeed, when it is considered that nearly half of the Money required for the site bas been sub- scribed, his expectations are sot unreasonable. ‘The bishops of the Methodist church at their moeting this week will consider the execution Of the great project. The enthusiasm shown by Bishop Hurst will doubtless be communi cated to the bench of bishops and to the whole denomination. The undertaking is one woll calculated to excite enthusiasm, ————+ - = __.- The great strategist, Field Marshal Von Moltke, is receiving such an ovation on the oc- casion of bis 9th birthday as perhaps uo soldier or civilian has ever before received. Certainly none of rank less than royal has had such abundant honor through a succession of «a: east upon him. Since Frederick the Great! there has been no such soldier in They can afford to heap upon bim the highest honors of state and the most profound popular applause. One man is missing from the cere- montes is even greater than the recipient of the honors himself, the man without whom | the field marshal’s great victories would nover have been achieved, Prince Otto von Bis-| marck, now in retirement in disgrace with the | emperor. — + Soom will come the day of distress to the | I Gensus bureau. Out of its present force of | 3,000 employes « leading official says that in| twelve months not five hundred will be r tained iu service. ‘This temporary character of the work shows up after every census is taken, and in counection with the statement of the same chief is worthy of the serious rctlec- tion of Congress. He says that less than ono Per centof the clerks bad any experience at the beginuing of the year. A pormauont bureau would train and retain # com- petent corps of employes, whe would not have to be organized and drilled every ten years. Much time would be saved to the officers, much etliciuncy be aequired by the government and as a result the decennial umeration would be more satisfactory. There is no discount on Minister Hirsch’s Promptness. The Turkish government hed an | American citizen arrested on the ground that he had engraved «seal for a secret Armenian | society. He was released on condition that he | should stand trial. But the American mmuister | Proved that the man waza photograph appa- Fatus agent and kuew nothing of the art of en- raving, whereupon the sublime porte ex- pressed regrets. Mr. Hirsch. not «atisfied, still demanded sutistaction for the outrage and puuishment of the official whe ordered the ar- rest. Hoe seems determined to show the Turks sdifferonce betweon Americans and Armen- | ians. i —_—$—— - = _ Hitherto polar exploration has been in the arc- tierather than the antarctic region. The French and English have done something in the latter, however, and this is to be supplemented by the Norwegian Nordenskjold and Baron Dickson. ‘These explorers, aided by some of the Austra- Han colonies, have about made possible an- | other expeditiou to explore the rogion around | or near the South Pole, which will start within twelve months. The fact that these far south seas are full of whales, seal, etc., adds to the interest with which the proposed expedition is regarded. Its commercial importance is not secondary to its scientific. ——$<$<—<—— oe _____ Secretary Balfour is going through Ireland | with a private secretary who is taking pictures of potato fields with akodak. The secretary | evidently knows the kodak. If he should | happen to get the potato pictures just a little | out of perspective he will have the potatoes in the patches about twice as big as the barn on the far side of the lot, anda famine would be &n utter impossibility, all of which the secre- tary wants to prove. ——————— oe —____ The democrats in the old Randall district of Philadelphia are quarreling so among them- selves that the Philadelphia Press threatens that the republicans will abolish the district | and save the trouble of having a democratic family fracas every two years. The free-trade democrats who used to say that the district was republican anyhow, of course will not object to such disposition of the matter. ——- Blushing honors are thrust thick and thick-! ening upon the brow of Thomas B.
