BRITISHERs LIKE SCHOOLS.
Color Question Is n New One to The
Visiting Teachers.

Two Of the visiting British public school
teachers who arrived in Washington Sat
urday afternoon too late to inspect any of
the local schools, were entertained at din
uer yesterday by Miss Edith C. Westcott.
of 1877 Riggs street, chairman Of the
committee on information.
These visitors were Arthur II. Baker.
mead master OF the Basnett Grove Coun-
ell School, of Lavender Hin, London. and
Joseph Smith. head master Of the Cul-
vert Road Council School, also of London.
While at Miss WestcOtt's they met Miss
Eva 3. Brown. director of primary edu-
cation. and Miss Garrison, principal of
the Morgan School
The visitors came to Washington from
Philadelphia. where they inspected sew
eral of the schools. To-day they will
visit both normal schools and several OF
the graded schools, and tomorrow will
leave for St. Louis.
Messrs. Baker and Smith declared they
were much impressed by what they have
seen of American educational methods.
but added that they would prefer to wait
until better informed before making a
comparison between our schools and these
of England. The education of colored pu-
pills is, to them, an entirely new phase OF
the situation. as the few colored students
in England are admitted without question
to the ordinary schools.

AUTHORITY ON RUGS.
John Kimberly HumfOrd Talks of
Persia and the Caucasus.

Registered at the New Willard is John
Kimberly Mumford, a newspaper corre-
spondeat who, in the service Of the New
York Herald and the World. Travelled ex-
tensively in far Eastern Europe and in
Asia. After abandoning newspaper work,
he took up the study of Oriental weav-
ing, and a volume he wrote on Oriental
Rugs" for Charles Scribners Sons is re-
garded as an authoritative textbook on
the subject. Mr Mumford believes that
far Eastern Europe is ripe for a decided
change 20 modern methods He says
that this country has little idea of the
changes that are taking place.
'The scattering dispatches transmitted
TO this country via London" he says,
give occasional scraps Of news, but Of
the immense upheaval that has been in
progress in Persia and the Caucasus dur
ing the past year we know practically
nothing. The Caucasus just now is quiet
but nobody who knows expects il TO re-
main so for any length of time. One
cannot help being impressed by the ad-
ministrative strength of Russia in having
kept the peace between the un-
ruly tribes as long as she has. And it
is all done with little outward manifesto
tiOn or IOTCe- throughout the conquered
territory of Caucasia and Trans-CaUcasia
down to the Arax River. at Julia. the
Persian boundary. the Russians have
taken old, decrepit, tumble-down towns
and made them into modern villages. IN
all Of them they have set out many trees
established public parks, and everywhere
there is a spacious bandstand, where the
garrison band plays. Plenty to eat and
drink. something to laugh at anything
to disseminate good humor-that has been
the Russian programme.
But Of course" continued Mr. Mum
ford. underneath 1t all is the great un-
rest. How violent the convulsion will be-
or how much of the face of the map will
be changed when it is all over. il Is hard
to foresee, but five years from now. when
Russian, French. and German railroads
are running into Persia from Asia Minor,
il is certain that the old pastoral and
tribal life of the East will have passed
away. Asia has already seen more his
tory made than all the rest of the world
put together, but it will all look small and
insignificant when the chapter now being
written is finished"

SAENGERBUND CONCERT.

ceived at New National Theater.

ceiVed at New National Theater.
The numerous friends Of the Washing

evening at the first Public Concert Of the

At no time during the evening did

soprano showed its splendid capabilities in

also sang 'Hsymal1inE'' (Needham and
The Years at the Spring CBeach) in a
manner which will leave pleasing i'm
preston with her Washington audience.
Mr. Bendix's first solo was particularly
appropriate. being Introduction and
