Petitions of Soldiers.
With the publication of the manifesto of
the Preobrajensky regiment, supporting
the political platform of the labor party in
the duma, similar demonstrations began to
occur In almost every garrison In the en-
pire. Six hundred and fifty soldiers in the
barracks at Odessa, for example. prepared
a petition to the duma supporting the plat
form Of the labor party and asking the
passage of law prohibiting the use of the
army for police purposes; the second bat
TALON of the Semenofsky Guards at Kras-
noe-Selo within few miles from the cap
ital, held a mass meeting. and demanded
the release of eighteen of their comrades
who had been arrested and sent to prison
for political reasons.
The entire garrison at samara held a
meeting and marched to the place of as
sembly in body with the regimental band
at their head A meeting was organized.
a list of demands was drawn up and
adopted which included amnesty to polit-

penalty. a division of the land among the
peasants. better beds. better food. less
work, greater courtesy by officers to men.
the right to employ their leisure as they
choose. the right to read newspapers and
discuss political questions and other lib

league" had been organized for political
purposes, and the correspondence and seal
Of the organization were captured.
The battalions of engineers at st. Pc
tersburg held meeting and boldly ex-
pressed their opinions upon political ques-
tons and presented long list of their
own grievances.
At the citadel at Warsaw five officers
two sergeants and thirteen enlisted men
were convicted by court-martial of being
the officials of secret revolutionary or
ganization.
The strangest incident of all was when
the archbishop of Odessa In the course of
a sermon declared that the members of
the duma, and other opponents OF the car
der arose in the congregation and replied
with fervent eloquence that the archbishop
himself. and men like him, were the real
enemies Of the people.
Even Cossacks Accused.
These are few Of many similar occur
rences that have taken place in the army
within the last few weeks. not in any par
ticular district. but In every part Of the
empire. They demonstrate that the rank
and file of the Russian army are quite as
thoroughly democratic as the laboring ele-
ment of the people. and share their revolu-
tionary views. Indeed. in almost every case
where the soldiers have expressed political
opinions they have Endorsed the platform
of the labor party.
1t is a singular illustration of the meth
ods of the car and his ministers that he
should punish his second cousin, the Grand
Duke Nicholas for these acts of insub-
ordination as If he Were to blame His
imperial majesty not only published in the
Official Gazette an edict censuring him, but
he degraded Prince Vasilchikoff. who COM

Ozeroff, commander of the division. and dis
missed from the service the colonies of the
Preobrajensky. the Pavlovsky, the Alex
ander Nevsky and two or three other regi-
ments of the life guards in which revolu-
tionary manifestations appeared.

atty, and are no longer to be relied upon.

Naval Gunnery Contest Discouraged.

The London Daily Chronicle published
yesterday articles deprecating the suggested
Anglo-American naval-gunnery contest. 1t
says: 1.-The idea Is one that should be
nipped in the bud forthwith. 1t is to the
last degree undesirable that any one should
know too exactly how well or how badly
we shoot. in comparison with other navies.'
The Daily Chronicle argues that gunnery
emulation would be likely to produce de-
sire for real test In war, and says: I'VE
do not want such hopes In the British or
American navies. but an international shoot
would certainly produce them

IF NOT AIR, SAND.

Life, Saving Device Of an Autos,
Stranded in Jersey.
L hnd, said man who has not yet
come to own buzz wagon, ''that auto.
mobile tires are sometimes filed with
other things than air. Down on the
Jersey coast the other day saw 4
man filling a tire with sand.
'This tire had apparently-for the
men in the auto appeared to be cool
and competent men who knew wha:
they were about-became broken in
such manner that it could not be re-
paired to stand imitation on the spot,
but they wanted something in it and
SO they filled it with sand. At the
place where they were when the tire
collapsed the road ran close to the
ocean front, and they took the tire of
tho wheel and one of the men climbed
with it down the bulkhead of the beach
and there he set to work.
when he had worked in a lot OF
sand he would hold the tire up and
shake the sand down in it and then he
would put in some more, and so on
till he had the tire filled.
This was something new to me
but a friend tells me he has seen it
done before and that sand in the tire
is better than nothing, that it will
cushion the tire in some measure at
least and keep the machine from
pounding down on that wheel with it's
sheer dead weight

When a man has lived to be 10 years

But occasionally the spirit of youth
and determination remains in some

Vain Appeal.

When President Hadley of Yale was
professor of political science there a
student once offered him a poor ex-
cuse for a bad examination paper.
Prof. Hadley listened to the excuse
in silence, Then he said, with grim
smile:
"That excuse is about as poor as the
one a criminal ;aw;er offered for his
client in a case that had. gone hard
with him.
Gentlemen of the jury cried this
lawyer. e!oquently remember that
my client is hard OF hearing, and
that, therefore, the voice CT conscience
appeals to him in vain!'"

Odd Profession in France TROUBLES
of One Of the lmpresarios.
Among the curious professions
which one meets with in this country
from time to time is that of professor
of f1eas. What the professor trains
his alert pupils to do cannot imagine,
writes the Paris correspondent of the
London Globe, but every now and then
at the shows which camp on the out
skirts of Paris the flea professor has
his booth.
One Of these strange impresarios
named Jocolino lately took up his resi-
dence in lodging house in the Rue
st. Charles. Unfortunately Jocolino's
pupils multiplied with far more rapid
ity than he could train them to be we'll
behaved, with the result that their
active disposition led them to explore
the adjoining rooms of the lodging
house, where they performed on their
own account.
Their visits were not to the liking
of the neighbors, and Jocolino was
obliged to listen. to some very forcible
remonstrances on the subject. The
nuisance, however, did not abate, and
finally one Of the tenants, plumber
named Sauvin, decided to take the
matter into his own hands. Armed
with large quantity of insect powder.
the irate plumber entered Jocolino's
room in the absence Ct the professor
and sprinkled the exterminator IN all

While he was so engaged, however,
the nea trainer returned. and migtak-
