SEVENTH TO THE FRONT.

The 22d Regiment will evacuate the camp
grounds at PeekskiH to-day, and the reservation
will be turned over to the 18th Regiment Tor one
week The members of that command VIII nnd
as their engineer comrades discovered on thef
tour that camp duty under the new order OIL
things is not what it was in the days or Old
The Peekskill camp will not be picnic ground
for the 9TH Regiment as it was when that Dody
was there last. At that time a ready maze
camp awaited the men. and there was mess
hall to which the soldiers marched three times
a dav for their meals. To-day the camp VIII be
made by the members of the regiment with
paraphernalia brought from the armory, and
the rations will be prepared by the company
cooks.
Before the regiment returns it will have had
a tour of service away from the camp proper
and in many ways the men will have tasted real
field duty The change in the nature OF the
camp duty has made gold lace and dress uni
forms less necessary than they were formerly
1t gives the men less time to entertain friends
to play and to indulge in spectacular parades
and reviews. On the whole there is less sport
and more work in it. But the members of the
9TH Regiment will gain an idea of what sol
dier's life in actual service is like, and they
will be better for it.

HIS title to the throne. For him to deny the au-
thority of the Servian Parliament would be to
fmpeach his own standing as King.
If he were not g constitutional sovereign, but
an absolute one like the Gar of Russia or the
Sultan Of Turkey, he could, of course. send those
assassins to the gallOws; or he could do so II
the Servian army would let him thus deal with
ifs favorite officers which is exceedingly doubt
full. But he is not such dictator. He is gov
erned by the constitution and can proceed IN
this matter only under constitutional rules. the
constitution would certainly not countenance
his punishment of men who have been exempted
from punishment by the supreme legislative
body of the kingdom. 1t does not seem, there
fore likely that he will or can fulfil the conf
dent hope Of his Russian patron.

COMPETITORS IN THE BRITISH MARKET.

The United States is still the chief foreign
source of Great Britain's food supply. Never
theless, as we have shown, other sources are be
ing developed, and are increasing their contribu-
tons TO the British market much more rapidly
than is this country. Canada, for example, Is
sending to the mother country more and more
wheat each year, and Australia is sending
thither large quantities of meat Nor are the
British colonies our only competitors. Argen-
tina and other South American countries have
entered the field with much success.
Thus in the first quarter of the present year
Argentina sent to Great Britain more than
$4,000 worth Of live cattle for food. That was
a small amount compared with our $6O00000
or more in the same period. But it was a good
beginning, Argentina having sent none at all in
1902 and 1901. while our own exports in these
three years have been steadily and consider
ably declining. The same may be said of ex
ports of live sheep, of which Argentina in the
first quarter of this year sent more than S1O0,
600 worth, against our $4,000 worth, the lat
ter a much smaller amount than in either of
the two preceding years Argentine sales of
wheat in the same three months We're nearly
81 100000 or more than one-fourth of what our
own had fallen to- her sales of Indian corn were
more than $4,000; Of fresh beef, 100000.
or nearly one-third of ours aud of fresh mutton
more than 100000 In other lines OF goods,
too. Argentina is making progress In the same
three months she sent to Great Britain between
two and three times much tallow and stearine
as we did, to wit, more than $650,0OO worth
and more than ten times as much linseed or
81 800 600 worth
Such progress in the British markets made
by Argentina is not in the least surprising see
ing how great the natural resources and
productiyeness of that country, and seeing
moreover, how grievously the United States has
neglected to cultivate commercial intimacy with
it and its South American neighbors

USELESS RISKS.

The insane desire to win applause and gate
money for performing feats of daring has re-
suited in injury to many of the performers this
season. The parachute man and the Niagara
Falls swimmer the eater of hashed glass and
the modern William Tell have been displaced for
the moment by the man who hopes to whirl
into the realm of fame by means of skate and
cycle wheels On the same day this week three
men were injured at Coney Island by falling
from wheels going at breakneck speed on a
track almost perpendicular and one man was
killed at indianapolis by falling while attempt
ing to loop the loop" on skates.
Personal risk in the interest of science is
species of herOsm for which all men must have
respect, and when venturesome scientists meet
with accidents, or when bodily injury follows
experiments in the interest Of the human fam
ily it is only natural that sympathy should be
shown for the victims by their fellow men. But
hystercal outbursts the discontinue of
loop the loop hero a bicycle acrobat are I'M
worthy of men of sound judgment If fool
hardy exhibitions were suppressed by law,
many men who are useless members Of the COM
munity, and who set bad example to the rising
generation, might be saved to good and useful
citizenship.
