EDUCATION IN TRADE.
Representative Hepburn Oh the Bene-
fits of the rhiIadcIpIl in ExpOaitiOn.

Representative Hepburn of Iowa, who
made the principal address at the opening
of the export exposition at Philadelphia, is
very enthusiastic over the project which
the founders of the Commercial Museum
had in mind, and especially the exposition
part of it.
I'm their model sample rooms said Mr.
Hepburn this morning, may be found
specimens of every raw material on earth
Suppose a man wants to deal in woods, he
can see samples there of every kind that
grows with the statement to the guam
titles produced in each country, the cost
the cost of transportation, routes of trans
portation. the dealers and agents who
would be of assistance. the commissions
exchange, and every item that enters into
the total cost. Then he can see what each
country does in the way of manufacturing
wool. If there is a particular shade or tint
IN textiles that people of country al
feet he will see it there. If there is a par
ticular form of shoe that any country, like
the Argentine, prefers, he will learn what
1t is. What l have said of wool and shoes
is true OF everything else. A man can get
an education in trade IN a few hours there
that it would take years of travel and resi-
dence abroad to acquire. Every trade jour
nal in the world be found there, with
important matters translated and tabulated
so you can put your hand on any Informal
ton that happens to be wanted. l saw
trade journals in twenty-six languages
The exposition has its agents in every part
of the world, trained and intelligent men,
gathering this information"
When Representative Hepburn asked
if he uld not think the Commercial Museum
ought to be located in Washington, in con-
nection with the work of the bureau of
American republics with the reports of
the consular service since this is strictly
national undertaking, he replied that he be-
lieved one of the commercial cities had a
better claim than even the national capital,
and that Philadelphia has done so much
that she was entitled to the honor.

Te.tinr Armor mt Indian Head.

A number of Russian and American naval
officers went to the Indian Head proving
grounds yesterday to witness the test of
Krupp armor plate, representing large
quantity of the armor of the Russian bat
tie ship now building at the Cramps yards
at Philadelphia. A five-inch armor plate
was subjected to test five-inch steel pro-
jectiles being used against 1t. Five shots
were fired the lowest velocity being 2,05I
feet second and the highest 2,O99 feet
The plate withstood these shots, there be-
ing no sign of crack and the maximum pen
etration was two inches. The officials Of
both countries regarded the test as highly
satisfactory.

Issue of Hawaiian ReGisters.

The President has issued a proclamation
in regard to Hawaiian registry as follows
"In the exercise of the power conferred
upon him by the joint resolution of Con-
gress. approved by the President on July
Z. $685. entitled Joint resolution to pro-
vide for anneXing the Hawaiian Islands to
the United States the President Of the
United States hereby directs that the issue
of registers to vessels by the authorities
of Hawaii, emitting such vessels to all the
rights and privileges Of Hawaiian vessels
in the ports Of the nations or upon the high
seas shall hereafter cease
The purpose of this action is supposed
to be the prevention of indiscriminate ad-
mission to Hawaiian registry of foreign
built ships which will later on become en-
titled to United States registers.

1t is estimated that the South African re-
public will not be able to place in the field
at the beginning of a war with England
over 250o0 men. of whom $4,000 would be
from that republic and the rest from the
Orange Free State, Natal and Cape Colony.
On the other hand, England has in South
Africa 1900 men. Half of them are in
Natal whence the movement against the
Transvaal will be made. The rest will be
retained to guard against Afrikander up
ris!ngs in the British colonies. A force
of 1O.OGO will be sent from India. 1t is
stated that $4,000 more will be sent to South
Africa from England. England would thus
$4,000 men.

Record Of the Clubs,

The fourth game Of the series, played at
Boston Saturday. between the Senators and
Champions. went to the credit of the lat
usual occurrence of both teams playing
perfect ball was witnessed by the specta-
tors, not mispay occurred during the
contest.
Twirier Magee once more tried to make
good" in pitching sense, but after Civ
ing three bases on balls in the first in
ming and then ''sassing' the umpire, he
put out of the running, and Billy
Dneen sent to the rubber. Big Bill was
in fine shape and from the time he took
up the running the Bostons We're playing
for their lives to get run across the
plate. Now and again the first batsmen
up would get hits and then with runners
on the sacks he would retire the next three
men before a tally could be scored Op-
posed to Billy on the rubber was the ex-
Senator. Jouett Meekin. and he. too. was
effective at critical parts of the contest
Buck Freeman was the most successful
with his bat. getting in double and a
triple, while Scheibeck made a single and a
double. The good work continued through
out the game. and was of such a character
as to require ten innings to settle. the SEN
sational base running of Hugh Duffy in
the last turn at the bat, landing the neces-
sary tally for the Bostons to win.
Frank Scheibeck played finely at short,
as did Mercer at third and Padden at sec
ond. The fielding of Boston's ined was
also of the highest order, everybody play
ing hard to win, and Duffy'S sensational
play finally won the game.

CHURCH WATCHES PRACTICE.
The New Coach of the Georgetown
Eleven Arrives.

Eleven Arrives.
VIII Church. formerly of the Princeton
foot ball team, who has been engaged to
coach the team of Georgetown University,
arrived in the city yesterday and visited
the university in the afternoon. In one
hours time he had the team out on the
field, undergoing practice. nearly all of
the candidates for places appearing. The
players We're kept at work for perhaps
half hour and then allowed to retire.
The men will be pushed forward as quick
ly possible under the circumstances,
and an effort made to organize a repre-
sentative team
Immediately upon his arrival Coacn
Church called the candidates together and
retired to one of the rooms Of the insti-
tuition for a consultation. He made a
few pointed remarks to the men relative
I" the training of the players, insisting
upon regular attendance at practice He.
agreed with Capt. Long that if the men
did not show up regularly for practice
they would not receive a place on the
team in preference to men who were al
ways On hand, though somewhat inferior
in playing the game.
There was no practice game on the cam
pus. An eleven was formed and iIstruc-
tons were given in passing the ball. \
trial al Il quarter back was made, McAfee
filling the position yesterday. The other
candidates We're put through other courses
of training i'll throwing the ball. The
practice work was witnessed by large
number
In speaking of the prospects Of forming
good team, Coach Church stated to "A
Star reporter that all of the candidates
We're very willing to play the game, and
he could see no reason why good team
could not be picked from the list. He un-
derstood that other to show
up for practice who would be heavy and
suitable for the line. LAS it looks now"
said he, I'VE will have a comparatively
light team. but that does not interfere
with the playing. A light team is very
often much better than heavy one, being
able to move around quicker
