THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Fumily Cireulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailie: s a News nnd Advertising Medium it has no competitor. In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not ve addressed to any individual connected with the oMece, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editort or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose.

The regulationg seem to be all right and, in con- junction with the compulsory presence. on each wheel of a lighted lamp after dark and a bell all the time, they are all that even the captious pedestrian may reasou- ably ask for. But it does not appear how the police propose to capture those *‘s ers who decline to halt when the called upon to do so by a guardian of the peace. Respect for the law is probably possessed by nine-tenths of the wheel riders in the District, but the percentage, even of the law-abi likely to pull up and to ac- cer past whom they are s them to, is too small to en termed infinitesimal.

Weak as the courses of study in some of this country’s public schools undoubtedly Propositi the are it $ never been asserted that geog- raphy was improperly or insufficiently taught. On that point the public schools would seem to have a decided advantage over the United States Naval Academy; an in: “n which should make a specialty «f the sclence that describes the surface of the earth, whether that surface be solid or liquid. There may be—and there undoubt- <aly are—eras in the professional careers of st naval officers when geographical owledge, except in Mmited quantities, 1s For many years the U.S. Receiving Ship Dale was ted up to a wharf at the Washington. Navy Yard, se- cured to earth by cables that had every ap- pearance of being strong enough to with- of no particular value. stand any strain; a marrow channel and an extensive expanse of marshland rendered it practically impossible for the old ship to wander away very far; the upper deck was roofed over so as to protect those who might possibly not know enough to go be- low if there was noticeable precipitation of atmospheric humidity. It would have been easy for a man who had never heard of geography and to whom navigation was a insoluble mystery to command the Dale and, with the help of the cables before re- ferred to, keep that ancient specimen of naval architecture within three minutes’ walk of cable cars. But accurate geograp- ical information is necessary when the ables are cast off or the anchor Is welghed; without it there must Inevitably be navi- gatory results surprising if not disastrous. In yesterday's Star there was interesting mention of the placing on waiting orders of @ naval captain who had never permitted the Dale to stray five feet from the Navy Yard wharf but who, when placed tn com- mand of the Lancaster and ordered to Bra- ail, was unheard of for fifty days after his departure from this country and who then turned up at ihe Island of Madeira. For this remarkable departure from the route usually followed by ships voyaging from our Atlantic Coast to the South American station the Navy Department has deprived the captain of his command and now has him ashore, where, if he should chance to set lost, he may be guided by the ordin- arily-obliging policeman. Congress, of course, has its hands full just now, but it may tnd time to legislate out of existence the staff and line rumpus which is damag- ing the naval establishment very seriously, The remedial statute for which so many people are praying ought to have in it a proviso that whenever the line officer in command of a warship shall wander over almost to tne African coast in search of a port known to be in Brazil he shall turn over his command to the senior engineer officer, who, no matter how persistently or how earnestly he might try, could not do very much worse. -— > e- Only one hundred and seventy-four men were at work on the city post-office butld- ing today, say those immediately in charge of the job.

That accounts for our Early June Peas being so much finer than the fresh vegetable now being brought to market. It isn’t possible for them to be fresh, as the peas are kept at least a day or two.
