The most significant item Of news re-
eeived from Russia in some time relates
to the behavior of the Preobajensky
regiment when ordered to proceed to st.
Petersburg. The Probajensky is the
most famous of all the Russian guard
regiments and is usually held for service
near the, person of the Car. 1t has
special privileges in recognition of long
and unbroken record of loyalty and is
consequently counted upon some of the
most reliable organizations in the Inn
perial Guard. The regiment refused to
move to st. Petersburg unless a guaran-
tee was given that it would not be eni-
ployed for the suppression or coercion of
the Douma. The request was complied
with in order to avert more dangerous
munity.
This incident is one of several indicat-
ing that sentiment in the Russian army
is rapidly becoming liberalized by the
spectacle Of the conflict between the
Douma, Oh the one hand, and the Gar
and his ministry, on the other. From
various garrison centers come reports of
a growing disaffection and the fact that
the government refrains from drastic
measures in dealing with the muinteers
is proof positive rhat it fears severity
will kindle fresh disorder. The army is
the only bulwark of Russian autocracy.
Hitherto the Czar has been able to main
tain himself because he could trust the
army which has been ruthlessly employ
ed in such repressive work as the police
were unable to do unaided. But disaffec-
tion has been steadily increasing for the
last six months until now even the most
pampered regiments appear ready to for
swear their allegiance. If the spirit Of
popular sympathy with the Donna in its
struggle for responsible government can
affect even the Guard the chances of the
Car being able to enforce his viii in a
supreme crisis are lessening with aston
ishing rapidity.

A report issued by the United States
Geological Survey discloses remark
able increase in the number and cost of
buildings erected in this country during
1905 as compared with the building rec
ord of 1904. says the Brooklyn Eagle
In the latter year the number of permits
issued to builders was 139,313, and the
total cost of the structures erected was
s46e. .699.71o. Last year the total of per-
mits Jumped to 1S4, ,416, and the total
cost to $640, ,555. 5.641. To Brooklynites
these figures have peculiar significance
from the fact that the reports credits
Brooklyn with more new and remodeled
buildings in 1905 than are credited to
any other center IN the United States.
Iii the computation of these statistics, as
iii the regulation Of postal affairs, the
Federal Government regards Brooklyn
as a. separate community and not as a
borough Of Gseaser New York; hence it
is possible to iiiatitute a comparison be-
tween Brooklyn and Manhattan and the
Bronx, which are together bracketed
under the name OF New York.
In 1905 no fewer than 1869 permits
were issued in Brooklyn, invilving an
aggregate expeqaiture q little more
than ssc.ooo0co IN the number Of per-
nlits Brooklyn nearly doubles the New
York record. 1t is aibout 5000 ahead Of
It's nearest rival Chicago, and about

While the warfare against the mo-
squito in Newark and a few other 1nu-
inequalities in the vicinity has been
crowned with signal success, the occa-
sional mosquito is still in evidence in
various spots scattered throughout the
county that need attention, says the New
ark DAILY Advertiser" The fault OF
this lies really with the people of the
districts affected The effective work of
the Newark Board of Health, under the
direction of the State Entomologist, in
the meadows, has proved conclusiyely
that the great summer pest can be BAN
ished By attacking the breeding places
Similar evidence is furnished in the ex-
perience of outlying municipalities, who
have fought the pest on the same lines.
Any occasional marauders in these
places are either visitors from some place
where no concerted efforts have been
made to eradicate the mosquito or they
are home-bred in neglected rain barrels

the Fourth of July accidents been COM
piled and classified, for the reason that
only within the past few years has pub
lie sentiment been aroused against the
use of dangerous explosives on that day
and in favor of what is known as safe
and sane legisiationcmfwy pweypyppyp
and sane celebration The annual census
of casualties presents some highly in
structiye facts. not the least of which is
tn eshow-ing that while the fatalities
have rapidly decreased he total aggregate
of accidents is greater than ever.
For example. the total number of hu-
ma nbeings killed in the United States
OF July 4, 1908, was 466, the most of
them children. In 1904 the awful list
shrunk considerably. and last year. ac-
cording to the best records obtainable by
ssThe Journal of the American Medical
Association" the fatalities numbered
1872 But the grand total of injnries of
all kinds was 5.116. which was about
.060 more than the number in the year
1904. This may be accounted for in two
ways; first, by the exercise of greater
caution on the part of. those who use fire.
works of all kinds. and second, by the
more exact compiling Of Fourth of July
statistics. The latter is probably to be
charged with keeping mp and increasing
the aggregate of accidents, for the chill
dren could hardly be expected TO be so
over sixty per cent. in two years time.
The awful ravage sof lockjaw as
resultant of injuries with firecrackers,
top pistols, etc, ought to be studied by
every parent. Que of the 466 who died
from the effects of accidents on July 4,
three years ago. As were victims of
tetanus. In 1904 the number was 105,
and last year it was eighty-seven. The
destructive effects Of tetanus have un-
doubtedly been successfully checked by
the use of antitoxin, and for this reason
a full supnls Of this drug should be Sc
cured within the next few days, in order
TO be in readiness for use on the coming
Fourth.
The accidents that seem to inevitably
result from the present foolhardy method
of celebrating the Fourth of July are of
all fhe kinds that might be expected
from the use of fireworks and explosives.
Twenty-three children were. burned to
death last year. thirty y-seven were killed
By gunshot wounds. ten died of fright or
shock, two were killed by skyroekets, six
wese rendered entirely blind. forty-five
lost one eye. thirteen lost one finger or
more. Pennsylvania lad the largest list
of casualties. New York the second, II
linois the third. New Jersey was far
taer down the lis. :,eceasa II is a smaller
State and becaiss its laws and ordi-
nances are fairly we'll enforced in the
large cirses.

ing svek none may know, but the proba-
bilities are that a greet msry parents
will mourn their folly WIEN it is too Late,
and great many children viii be 50
