6 ————S— THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY....... September 6, 1895. CROSBY S$. NOYES...............-Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has ne competitor. Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAN, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. America’s Olympia. By winning the great match at Sea Girt the District riflemen have pushed forward one step further the project of holding these interstate shocts on local ground, which was started in the spring by the es- tablishment of the rifle range at Ordway, near this city. They have also added an- other reason to the many already existing for the reccgnition of Washington by all the lovers of sports in America as the best place for holding great competitions of every description. It is confidently ex- pected by the riflemen that in another year the range at Ordway will be in a condition to be utilized as the scene of the great an- nual matchgs, and soon the victorious Di: trict team may be the hosts of the occa- sion Instead of the prize-winning guests. In other departments of sport the Capital is equally well equipped. The Potomac river furnishes an ut paralleled course for rowing, sailing, and canoeing, a course that has every advantage and fs attended by none of the handicaps which are experi- enced in larger and more commercial cities where the waterways are infested with in- terfering craft on all occasions of aquatic sport. The success of the great meet of the Amateur Athletic Unicn several years ago on Analostan Island shcws what can be done in the line of general sport and It will not be surprising if Washington is again chosen within a very shert time as the scene of this event. In bicycling, too, Washington ts far to the frent and has a well-deserved reputation for the number and cleverness of Its riders. It Is a rea- sonable result that in a great city so well supplied with smooth and unobstructed streets there should be an unusually large proportion of wheelmen, and also that from tkis great army of users of the bicycle there should be developed more than an average number of experts. Those in a po- sition to know declare that there are more riders In proportion to the population here than in any other city of the couatry, and they should lose no time in persuading the wheelmen of America to come here for their annual gethering, and to this end the various clubs should urite in sharing the expense of the creation and maintenance of the finest bicycle track that can be pro- duced. One particular advantage of this city as the scene of competitive sports is that it possesses a delightfully equable climate and that here the season for out- door exercise is much more extended than in the northern cities, while the tempera- tures do not rise to the enervatfng point reached in the cities in the south. This af- fords a long season for athletics and re- duces the chances for disappointment on the score of unfavorable weather. Wiheel- men, runners, walkers, jumpers, vaulters, hammer-throwers, oarsmen, yachtsmen, ca- noeists, sharpshcoters—all are welcome. ———————~2+—____ The Tag System in Conventions. Prof. Wiley of the Agricultural Depart- ment is apt to go down to history in a role additional to that of fame among the fore- most of the agricultural chemists of the world. He is the inventor of a new and highly approved system of personal identifi- cation of delegates at conventions, now be- ing smoothly tested at the annual meeting of the agricultural chemists of America in session at the National Museum. He has given to each delegate a number, and has also provided a great blackboard, on which are written in large letters the names of those entitled to speak, with their corre- sponding numbers affixed. A mere glance at the tag pendant from the buttonhole of a delegate arising to speak, and then a hasty view of the blackboard, give the listener a full knowledge of the identity of the speaker, This is indeed an achievement, to persuade men of science to be tagged and it will be appreciated by thousands of men and women who have heretofore been greatly puzzled at such gatherings. No doubt Prof. Wiley’s patent identifier—he should surely secure a patent on the device —will be adopted by the managers of “ll large assemblages, and perhaps the coming national pofitical conventiors may be run cn the Wiley basis. Who knows? ———re+>—_ “We came over here for the sport of the thing, and not for betting. Who knows what the odds are, anyway? Nobody knows.” Thus speaks Mr. Glennte, one of Lord Dunraven's assistants In the yacht race enterprise, ard his principal is quite us emphatic on the subject. ‘Personally I have not a dollar on the result,” said Lord Dunraven recently. “We are here for sport, and are going to try to scoop the pot. That is what I think about the bet- ting.” All honor to these men who take such a staunch position in behalf of clean sport, untainted by considerations of financa, Of course there will be more or less betting on the yacht races that will begin next Saturday, but it will be a grand day for American sport of all kinds if the sentiments thus uttered by the English yacht owner and his friend are sincerely echoed by his American colleagues. —__+ +_____ Commander Boston of the Morton G.A.R. Post in this city is in a serious predica- ment. He is to be court-martialed, but that 1s not the kelght of his woe. The District Commander has unfeelingly chosen for the date of the trial one of the days which the Merton Post people are to use in a trip to Norfolk, the annual picnic of the organiza- ticn. Commander Boston declares that the picnic is of higher importance than the trial, for it was scheduled defore the trial was ordered. And so between picnic and trial there comes a dilemma. Commander Boston has chosen his horn and has grasped it firmly, and he now says that he will go to the picnic, keeping his previous engagement, and let the trial proceed with- out him. This ts a most intricate matter of military etiquette, and may lead to some awkward complications hefore it 1s settled. ——_~-«e The wild rush to get the first “R there” oyster joke was even more violent than usual this autumn. —— - -~+ ee -—__ Mr. Bowler and the Bounty. The decision of Controljer Bowler on the sugar bounty question, which was accu- rately forecasted in last evening’s Star, 1s no surprise to those who have followed this interesting case. The controller's po- sition in regard to his jurisdiction on the question of the constitutionality of the bounty statute is a bold one, courageously defended. Many people who may be ad- verse to the bounty principle In general and to the sugar bounty In particular may perhaps consider that whatever the cause the remedy applied by the controller to prevent the payment of the five millions or more of dollars creates a rather dangerous precedent in the establishment of a one- man power of control over all the fiscal acts of Congress. The reference by the centroller of the papers to the Court of Claims means little. It is not likely that THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. he will be induced by any finding of that court to reverse his position, which is so obviously assumed as a part of the finan- cial policy of the administration, nor will such advice from the tribunal—as it would really prove to be—be apt to be an ef- fective gulde for future incumbents of the controller's office. A practical disadvan- tage of placing in the hands of one indi- vidual the power of testing the constitution- ality of any laws, the power given by the Constitution itself to the Supreme Court, is that the frequent changes of incum- bency would operate seriously against the establishment of definite and certain con- ditions and principles in the construction of statuies. The question is altogether a most interesting and important one, and doubtless, whatever may be the political effect of the controer’s decision, it will be made the subject of exhaustive debate in the coming sessions of Congress and Perhaps result in legislation fixing more definitely, and it may he to the better satis- faction of all concerned, the exact position, duties, powers and responsibility of the controller. —_~ e+ ____ The Hilton Trophy Recovered. The news columns of The Star last even- ing left but little doubt in the minds of its readers that the rifle team of the District National Guard would win the champion- ship of the country and recover the Hilton trophy in the competitions at Sea Girt. ‘The special dispatch from the ranges giv- ing the results of the five-hundred yard shoot showed that the Washington marks- men had broken the tie caused by the two- hundred yard record and had taken a lead that could not be overcome. The later an- nouncement, therefore, that the District team had won the match caused no sur- prise in the city. There is every reason, however, to congratulate the Guard and its representatives at Sea Girt upon this mag- niflcent victory, which is marked not only by the recovery of the bronze shield but also by the establishment of a new world’s record for elghty-four shots each at two- hundred, five-hundred and six-hundred yards. Althouga the record is broken but by one point this achievement is worthy of the highest degree of praise and con- gratulation, for the previous record was a high one and to exceed it may mean that the District will hold the title of record chempion for many years. There is every reason why the reception to be accorded to the victorious markzmen on their return to the city next Monday night should be the occasion of a general outpouring of citi- zens as well as of soldiers. Washington is always proud of the achievements of her representatives abroad, and never lets such an excellent opportunity as the present to show her appreciation of good work go by without a demonstration. ——__--+ 2-2 —____ The Stimulus of Example. The Y.M.C.A. of Scranton, Pennsylvania, has just received a gift of $10,000 from Mrs. Frances E. Hackley of New York, who re- cently gave to the same Association $25,- 000 for the establishment of a manual training department in honor of her father, an old and respected resident of Scranton. There is a magnificent opportunity in Washington for such a donation to be made. The local ¥Y.M.C.A. is now more than ever in a position to receive gifts. The enterprise of replacing the structure that was burned In July by a fine, modern building demands that every public- spirited citizen of the Capital who realizes the great wortn of this institutioa to the community saould give liberally of his means, and there is scarcely another cause in the District that appeals so powerfully to the generous instincts of the wealthy residents. The greatest gool is done in all such undertakings by the pioneers who contribute largely at the outset, set the subscription pace at a rapid rate, and give to others among the beneficent the stimu- lus of a notable example. —_—___+ e+ ____ There were no men at work today on the elty post-office. There should be three or four hundred men engaged tomorrow to preserve the average, which is too small to be neglected. —__—__+ e = ___ It will be rough on Cuba if Spain's ex- penses for this war have to come out of the littie island’s taxes. —— _ + +0«--___ Atlanta can rest confident in her claim to having the greatest show on earth till Con- gress comes again. > += ____. SHOOTING STARS. Quoth the Governors, “What do you think of the presidential nominations?” said the governor of Ghio to the governor of New York. “I haven't dared to form an opinion.”’ was the reply. “It’s a long time between thinks this year.” Still the Same. This famous “new woman” Still charming appears. She’s “advanced” in ideas, But never in years. “De man dat puts in all ‘is time talkin’ politics am li’ble ter wear di’mon’s,” said Uncle Eben; “but de man dat puts in his time doin’ de lis'nen are purty sho’ ter be goin’ roun’ wif on’y one suspendah button.” The Bloomer Epidemic. She used to want jewels and laces and such, But her fancy no longer they strike. ‘When you offer her sealgkins she murmurs “Not much.” She hankers for “pants” and a bike. An Impression. “Congressman Bluffkins seems to think this government is in a very bad way.” “Yes,” replied the man who once studied medicine. “He is forever laboring under the impression that the Constitution of the United States needs a tonic.” Base Ball Solace. We may not win the pennant, But we're peaceful on that score, ‘When we gaze upon the record Of our suburb, Baltimore. A Romance of Today. “Do you think Harold really loves you?” said one girl. “I am sure of it,” replied the other, rap- turously. “He risks his life twice a week to see me.’ “How? “He has to pass a grade crossing every time he comes to see me.” Autumn Thoughts. ‘Take the carpets out and hang them On the line once more; Hire a man to lie supinely In their shade, and snore. Rustle ‘round and fetch the stovepipe Into view again— We must all get ready for the Fall Cam- Paign. Hail the haughty scrubbing lady, Patient ‘neath her frown, Let her sweep the house in triumph; We can move down town. From complaint or criticism Carefully refrain. Just be glad if we survive the Fall Cam- Paign. ——-e+_____ Alas, Too True. From the Chicago Record. In the country at large and even in the remoter inland towns there is evinced an interest in the coming contest wholly dis- proportionate to the actual knowiedge of the ways and means by which yachting contests sre decided. Men who do not know a keel boat from a center-board or a spinnaker from a club topsail talk about it. EXTRA.
