What Ais Royal Europe.

The recent death Of one European
monarch and the serious illness of
three others prompts a solicitude of
broader scope than just personal
anxiety. The possibilities of so much
physical ailment among the crowned
heads are not pleasant to contemplate
either I'm continental Europe or abroad
for talk as we will about the nominal
power of the throne, it commands an
influence and sustains a relation whose
transfer to other hands produces in
convenient effects. 1t will be a long
time before Great Britain will be able
to set down anything like an accurate
estimate of the result upon national
affairs of the kings death and even
private business has not yet been able
to relapse into normal condition since
the sad event.
Today the crown prince of Sweden
is conducting the affairs OF the nation
because King Gustavus is too sick to do
so. Emperor William Of Germany is

and was obliged to delegate some OF
his official functions to his eldest son
for time, while the young King AL
fonso of Spain is reported to be alarm
ingly i'll. Added to all this sickness
of royalty is the news that President
Fallieres Of the republic of France
eontemplates resigning on account OF
his health, and that M. BRAND, prime
minister, may succeed him.
The question must force itself or
the public mind: What has gone
wrong with the official heads of SC
many European nations. In case
of the republican, Fallieres, We
have his own reported statement tina
he wishes simply to retire from public
life, but in the case of the royalty il
seems that some sort OF contagion hat

/ ficance to the old saying: UNEASY

A Congress of Activity

The present congress will go down

most prolific of results. More actual
constructive legislative has been en-.
acted during this first regular session
of the Taft administration than is usu-
ally enacted in three years, and the
great feature about it is that the over.

that the people have been clamoring

believe congress has been indolent II
might be stated that during the present
session 25.S97 bills have been intro
duced in the house and SAFE in the

mind to conceive, without study, the

When the late Governor Johnson of Min

crat also, but he entertains a sickening
doubt of his courage.

The unusual circumstances attending the
treatment in the last illness Of Major Ed
ward Chynoweth, Seventeenth infantry,
who died at Fort Mcpherson, Ga, has re-
suited in the PRONUNCIATION by the secre-
tary of the war OF a rule which has been
generally observed, although not formally
prescribed. In the case of the late officer
a civilian physician of Atlanta, Ca, was
Gale din and the treatment was entrusted
to him, although there were on duty at
Fort Mcpherson three army surgeons
available for this service. The sudden and
critical illness of Major Chynoweth war
ranted the family of that officer in their
action, but the government, by decision
of the comptroller TO which reference has
been made in the Army and Navy Register
has disalowed the claim of the Atlanta
civilian physician for the medical attend
ance rendered The point hinged on the
fact that Major Chynoweth was removed
TO the hospital in Atlanta. A difference Of
opinion was evident between the cheif sur
geon Of the department and the surgeon
general OF the army concerning the ability
OF the local army medical officers TO treat
the case 1t has been decided that the
facilities and equipment at Fort Nc
Pherson were sufficient TO perform the
operation and the transfer of the patient
to a hospital In Atlanta, under the cireum-
stances, relieved the army medical officers
OF the professional responsibility and the
government OF the liability for the expense
OF medical attendance on the part OF the
Atlanta physician.

u Is understood that the authorities at

have been experiencing some trouble with
the class OF officers which some regimen

latter is an elementary school Of eouitation,
where poor riders can be taught TO stick
on a horse. The time was, perhaps. when
the mounted service school was Of this
character, but that time has passed, and
its present aim Is TO turn out officer grad
yates competent to act as instructors for
their regiments in regimental riding schools.
It is contemplated that only the finest
horsemen be sent from each regiment, and
the regulations require regimental COM
