Great as was the vigilants victory YES
terday there is yet a greater one To he

hundred challenging cutters might cross
tne Atlantic to do battle for the world s
championship and be defeated ingioriously
and yet the greatest triumph would not
nave been achieved. How long we shall
nave to wait for that victory no one could
now predict. for the British character is
ruil o. determination and slow to acknowl-
eose the supremacy of anti-British ideas.
IL may be that within a year or two the
educating influences Of this and other con-
tests Tor the great cup will have some
tangible enect; probability outlined by
the London Daily News. which, In referring
to the race Of yesterday, says: 1T seems to
be all over with the Valkyrie She has
been beaten again under conditions that fur
nished as good a test Of speed and seaman
ship as could have been desired. Our
yachtsmen and yacht builders must again
go to school In America. Some secret of
the American mind In this branch of sport
we have yet to master" At some future
day, therefore, 1t is more than likely that
an English built yacht broad of beam and
shallow Of draft and fitted with a huge
steel centerboard. will sail into American
waters and compete for the much coveted
prize. Perhaps she may win 1t, and that
will be the greatest of all American
victories. for our tenacious relatives
and rivals will then have conceded that the
centerboard Is better than the cutter And
for that we have been contending for many
years.

The estimates Of tn. District Commits
edorers published yesterday in The Star
are commended to the good Offices Of the
secretary or The Treasury and both houses
OF congress In no sense can any Of the
features OF the compr ehensive document
De regarded as extravaganza; indeed IL there
Is any fault to be found, the criticism would
favor greater expenditure on several of the
more important Lines. Every person who
has ever had occasion to transact business
1t the District building will surely concur
IN the recommendation that 100000 be ap-
propriated with which to commence the
construction of a new District building
one that would be fitted for the purpose
and that would be creditable to the ma
tional capital No city of ten thousand in
habitants in this country has so mean a
structure for municipal headquarters and
as the Districts bank account Is In rea-
sonably good condition Congress ought not
% object to a much needed Improvement.
There Is slight increase in the estimates
Tor schools and the amount asked for
should be granted without a murmur.
Washington rejoices in good schools. but
The accommodations are far from sufficient.
II ought not to be that In this age children
who are willing to learn may not be taught
because Of lack of facilities such as should
too. demands attention. II makes q very
modest request-too modest, we believe. for
the city has outgrown the present depart
ment and continues to grow with great
Tapidity. Chief Paris has an excellent
force-there Is none better any where-but
the number of men and engines is extreme
~ small when compared with the freight
ing forces in other cities Of importance.
Maj Moore also needs an increase In the
police appropriation, for some Of his Off
GERS have to traverse 50 much territory
that anything more than the most cursory
trsrection Is impossible. The Commission
srs have all the argument on their side
when they request liberal appropriations
for sewers. As a matter of fact the city's
sewer system needs thorough readjusting.
and in many places there Is danger to
health because sewers have not been ex-
tended as the spread Of population demand
cd they should The appropriations COM
mittees Of the House and Senate will find
many opportunities to render this city
services not called for in the estimates. but
any efforts at horizontal or any other sort
OF reduction can hardly result otherwise
than unjustly.

ially the District Of Columbia soldiers. are
content to wear the monumental blue with
which the government clothes the regular
army. OF display other than that Of force
there Is none. and instead Of the semi-oc-
casional drills and musters which delighted
many children who are still far from being
old there Is a system Of training such as
will soon make the volunteer soldier efficient
In all branches Of his duty. II this efficiency
Is more marked in any one direction than
another 1t Is on the line Of rifle practice.
Hundreds Of thousands Of men marched
from the various rendezvous Of war times
with reasonably intelligent ideas as to
company and battalion drills-as though bat
ties were to be won by efficiency in foot
movements and smartness In executing the
manual Of arms. Instruction In the use of
the rifle seems to have been but rarely
thought OF and as a consequence countless
tons Of lead went very far wide Of the hui
man marks at whom the ounces that went
to make up the tons were aimed. Such
condition of affairs is no longer possible In
the District national guard there are not
more than fourteen hundred officers and en-
listed men but out of that number more
than three hundred could hit one in a line
Of forty men at a distance OF six hundred
yards. More than one hundred and fifty
could hit single man at the same distance.
while thirty or forty of the most expert
could hit that same man several times a
minute IL he were lying down on the open
field with his head toward them. 1t Is on
such work as this that the efficiency of
troops will in the future be calculated. and
II comparison should be instituted between
the District national guard and other
bodies Of soldiers-regulars or volunteers
the result would be one of which Washing
tonians might be proud. Twice has the To-
cal brigade team captured the great Hilton
International Trophy, and through the
merit Of that same organization this city
now holds not only the Hilton shield but
also the Interstate trophy Of the National
Rihe Association. Minor teams have also
done well. that from the First Regiment
being twice winner Of the interstate trophy
offered for competition by the New Jersey
State Rifle Association, a trophy which is
now in the possession Of the Engineer Corps
of the d. c. N. c.. the team from that or
ganization having captured it at Sea Grit
In August. With half an eye any one ought
to be able to see the difference between the
militia of few years ago and the national
guard Of today.

II the anxiety of the Duke of veragua' 8
American friends indicates anything 1t
points to an unemployed condition on the
part OF His Grace and great scarcity of
coin OF the realm in the Verasua family.
That such things should be is really dis
tressing and no humane-minded individual
ought to sneer at the more or less distin-
guished sons and daughters of this republic
who are becoming emaciated merely from
endeavoring to think Of their poor dear
friend, the duke" whose fortune 1t seems
IN but little more than a paltry hundred
thousand dollars. 1t has been said by those
who shudder when they try to imagine one
of Spsin's srandees endeavoring to live on
the mean sum annually resulting from
such a pitifully poor estate that no real duke
can possibly get along in Spain unless his
income Is at least twice as great, and 1t IS
10 the necessary enlargement that these
philanthropists have devoted themselves.
In spite Of an assurance which comes from
the duke himself that a cash gift would not
be at all embarrassing to the dueal dignity
The Star ts satisfied that his grace's sense Of
gratitude might. II excited to the extent Of
several thousand dollars a year. develop
some functional disorder of a malignant
type and thus deprive many generous citi-
sens of the republic of the satffaction con-
sequent upon their knowing that a real
live duke of distinguished lineage was be-
ing fed and clothed by their bounty. Now
to save the dukes feelings and the Ameri-
can dollars and President Cleveland from a
somewhat complicated situation The Star
would suggest that the administration take
upon itself the responsibility Of founding
q Columbian dynasty In the Hawaiian Is
lands. Suppose. instead of re-enthroning
the brunette Liliuokalani 1t hires the physi-
cally cignified. but mentally mercenary de-
scendant of Columbus to act as a compro-
mise between absolute monarchy and the
provisional form Of government which now
prevails in Honolulu and thereabouts? The
salary which would go with such an ap-
pointment would doubtless be ample to
support the verangua ideas of state. and
its regular monthly payment by the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury would render unneces-
sary the proposed passing around of ex-
Senator Palmer's silk hat To the native
Hawaiians Veragus's sovereignty would
perhaps not be distastefuI the Japanese
would accept him without a murmur, En-
gfsh interests would be instantly captured
By the irreproachable mutton-chop whisk-
era Americans would greet him because
Of his illustrious ancestor. What Claus
SprsckeIs would say cannot now be guessed
1T. nor Is there any one authorized to speak
for the lottery ringxters or the opium snug
giers. but these elements could not openly
be consulted anyhow. The duke would
make an admirably vsceroy and II the adj
mtnistration Is not above taking advice
The Star would suggest that President
Cleveland talk this proposition over with
Mr. Charles Nordhon Of the New York
Herald and his diplomatic assistant, ex-
