COACHES
WEAR MANY SMILES
Georgetown Handler Pleased
With Their Material.

The coaches of the three college foot
ball teams of this city, with one excep-
ton. are very well satisfied with the
| showing made by their elevens in Sat
urday's games. Coach Suter and AS
sistant Coach Moran Barry, are well
pleased with the playing of the George
town boys in their game with the Mary
land Agricultural College. and the team
bids fair of becoming the fastest In the
South.
Coaches Houston and Alexander, of
the Columbian team. stated that the
showing made by their proteges against
the Western Maryland College was most
gratifying, and that Columbian would
have very strong team IL the men con
tinued to turn out for practice as they
have done so far this season.
Coach Crowley, OF the Gallaudet
eleven. while not disheartened. was not
satisfied Will, the game the Mutes put
up against Lafayette at Easton, Pa. on
Saturday. The Mutes had not practiced
more than three days, and were very
rusty. The strong Lafayette team plow-
ed through their line and smashed up
their poor interference.
The Georgetown lads will work harder
than ever this week Manager Fitzger-
aid has spent a lot of time making ar
rangements for his various games, and
has also inspired confidence in the Blue
and Gray tribe of pigskin chasers. On
Saturday they journey over to Annapolis
and test their prowess against the
brawn and muscle of the sturdy cadet
eleven. Last year the Blue and Gray
lads played the Middies to standstill.
Mr.. NJ. J. Thompson, manager of ath-
letics OF Georgetown University, states
that the local collegians will not be sat
isfled with playing the Middies to
a fall out of them. Saturdays game will
practically start Georgetown's football
season.
Never before have SO many candidates
turned out to secure positions on the
varsity team. There are about forty
men fighting for positions. 1t Will be
hard matter for the coaches to pick
the best. The material. from point of
weight and strength. is the best George
town has ever had. The center weighs
210 pounds, and two OF the ends tip the
beam at about 100 This years team
will be the heaviest and probably the
fastest .hat ever wore the blue and gray
sweaters.
The football schedule OF Georgetown
was published several days ago. and the
lovers of the game were much disap-
pointed at not finding the University of
Virginia team on the list this season.
Heretofore this has been the star con-
test of the year, Athletic relations
were broken off between the two shortly
after the Georgetown Virginia game last
year. when the Southerners were de-
feated for the championship by a score
of II to 16. Georgetown won out in the
last fifteen seconds Of play.

Rumors Are Numerous.

Already the rumor committees Of the
two leagues have settled down 70 busi-
ness and there are enough stories af1oat
as to the makeup of the different teams
OF the rival organizations for next year
to bewilder anyone that endeavors to get
ut the real condition of affairs.
1t seems pretty certain that the Ma
tioual League people have singled out
Ban johnson and Charles Comiskey's
Chicago American team to first attack
by stealing their star players.
The fact that Second Baseman Mertes
and Pitcher Piatt have succumbed to the
Establishments of the National agents is
considered good evidence that the claims
of the older league are more than mere
puffs of heated atmosphere.
The National people announced that
they were after the best men of the
American organization and followed up
their statement by pouncing upon two of
Chicago's best players as An evidence
OF their good faith.
Now that the season of the American
League is over and the players have
nothing to fear by announcing their in
tentions for rext season, there will
doubtless be found many deserters to
the National League. while the Ameri-
cans viii! have to wait week until the
National season is ended before they

Delehanty Leads Batting.

Delehanty winds up the season at the
head OF the Senatorial batters. with an
average of 81 to his credit. Carey and
Ryan made good fight for second place
and finished with averages OF .31s and
BIS. respectively.
Stanley played only few games with
the locals. and while he made four hits
out of twelve times at the bat, thereby
acquiring record of 1888, II is hardly
fair to class him above men who par
ticipated In almost every game of the
season.
AS whole. the hitting and fielding of
the locals were good enough to have
won more games than came to us, but
stupid base work and general careless
ness and poor management resulted in
the loss OF many games that should have
been captured.

JOHN ". THURST0k,
SOLE AGENT.
BOSS OF ROYAL SHOW
DUKE OF NoRFoLK'S IMPORTANCE
AT THE CORONATION.

BY Virtue of His ONCE as Earl Mar.
shall of England He Has Control of
All Details Premier Peer of the
Kingdom.
The most important man in England
today, excepting of course King Ed
ward VII. himself, is his grace the
Duke of Norfolk, manager of all the
details of England's coronation of her
hereditary ruler. He is earl marshal
of England and premier peer of the
realm, and for centuries scions of the
noble house to which he belongs have
arranged the coronatiOns Of British
rulers.
He is the man who has decided not
only the width of the ermine trimming
of the peers coronation robes and the
length of the trains of the peeresses'
gowns, but of what materials they
should be made. Even the king and
queen must bow to his dictum in this
regard.
The Duke of Norfolk has had the de-
signing of every garment and orna-
ment that will be seen in Westminster
abbey during the coronation and even
the prerogative of saying who shall be
there and who not. The title he bears
is his authority, and though it is posi-
BILE there will be folk indiscreet enough
to question his decisions it will avail
them little. When George ". was
crowned at Westminster, the dean and
chapter thereof thought themselves
badly treated in the amount of space
allotted to them in the abbey, and they
petitioned the king to rectify the mat
ter, but the monarch replied that what
his earl marshal, one of the Duke of
Norfolk's ancestors, said was law, and
that settled the matter.
At present the duke certainly de-
serves the new title which has been
conferred upon him, that of 1.-THE
busiest man in London" for by nothing
but the hardest sort of work could he
