Beady to Seize the Reins. IJy ' FIIKDKUIO J. IIASKIN. (Copyright. 1 So8, by Frederic J. Haskln.) WashlnRton, Aug. Zi. The) national markismanHhlp tournament now In prog ress at Camp Perry, near Ranilimky. Ohio, In which both Ktato and national troops, the inarlm- roip, thx navy and the military and naval academies arc taking; part, marks u new epoch In smull arm practice In the Untied States. Al ready the champions or the world In marksmanship on land nnd on sen, with Ida; Rims and with mall arms, mo io fenders of the American flajr are not content with past achievement, hut are seeking to set new marks and to make new records. Although soiiin other ROvernmentu spend a dozen dollars where the United fitaten spends one In the enrouruKement of rllla practice, this country has the satisfaction of knowing that In both team and Individual marksmanship "H soldiers and sailors stand at the heud of every list. Almost every interna tional trophy to be competed for Is now In Its keeping. The l'alma trophy, open to the American, Canadian, Hritlsh and Australian marksmen, was won bv boys who march beneath the Stars and Btrlpes. At the Olympian Karnes tho Americans proved the superiority of their marksmanship over the whole world and came back laden with the tro phles of their skill. When It Roes to nlttlnjr tho bullseye, the American Is there first. In spite of tho superior nfl vantages the other nations grlvo their ma rksmen. Congress Cut Out Stinginess. But It Is to be said that while con gress has heretofore been somewhat nlsc nardly In Its treatment of the organized militia and In the encouragement of marksmanship, that time is largely past. The passage of the new militia bill last spring, and the recent laws for the promotion of rifle praojlco have had 11 very happy effect. The organized mil itia now has no trouble to keep Itself recruited up to the full quota, and ev ery where rltlo practice teams are spring ing up. Kvery state In the Union now has its crack teams, and every military organization Is encouraging good markn manshlp among its men. Congress has become In earnest about tho matter, and has taken many steps to help along the movement to make good marksmen out of the nation's defenders. It has cre ated the national board for the promo tion of rllle practice, has furnished the state troops with money which may be spent for the construction of rifle ranges, has given the magnificent tro phy of Mars holding the dogs of war in leash, an, in many other ways has shown an Awakened Interest In develop ing the fighting qualities of the men who have volunteered to flgfit our bat tles on land and- on sea. Soldier Ignorant of Shooting. The great national matches now being shot at Camp Perry are the direct re sult of congressional nctlon. These matches are held under the auspices of the national board for the promotion of rifle practice, and are open to every branch of the military and naval serv ice. Including the organized militia. The matches are open to all enlisted men nnd officers below the rank of major. The first prize in the rilie teafti match Is the bronze trophy of Mars and his dogs of war. The second prize is the famous Henry Hilton trophy. The third is the .Soldier of Marathon trophy. In the individual riilo match there are about 700 entries, and 36 medals. In the pistol match there are 15 medals. Something of the lack of knowledge of rllle practice at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war may be gleaned from the statement made by General Shafter. Ho stated that when the Seventy-first New York regiment reported to him at Tampa, to form a part of his expedition to Cuba, he was horrified to find mat after having been in a camp of instruction for two months, this regiment contained 400 men who had never fired a shot from their rifles. The same was found to be true of nearly all the volunteers, who were carefully in structed In everything but marksman ship. Kngland had the same difficulty In the Hoer war, and Lord Roberts was so Impressed with the mistake that he Immediately exerted his Influence in having the schools teach marksmanship. Hundreds of English schools are form ing rifle clubs under his advice. France , is doing likewise, and the United States is slowly following suit. Teaching' Boys to Shoot. A new device has been Invented for leaching schoolboys marksmanship with out danger to themselves. It Is known as tne "sub target machine." No am munition is used with this contrivance. The boy simply alms the gun and pulls the trigger, and a needle-like rod regis ters on a miniature target the point where the bullet would have struck on a regulation target had the gun been loaded. This machine Is not a toy, but lins been adopted by the navy and many military companies, while several thou sand are in use in the French army. After tne schoolboy's learn to aim in this way they are put to -work with .21 callber rifles, having the same weight and sight as the regular army rifles. After indoor practice with these has mado them proficient in the handling of guns, they are then taken to the rnnge and started into regular rifle prac tice An effort Is being made to induce (t'ultrd rr.H LMd Wlr Constantinople, Via I'levdlv, Aug. 24. This city In In a turmoil today, fol lowing the arrest of several more of the defaulting officials of the old regime and Grand VUler Klamll I'oiha Is hav ing a hard time to prevent the mob from taking the prisoners forcibly from the Inlla and killing them. The report that Klamll Is negotiating with the Hritlsh for the loun of a number of Kngllsh army officers to reorganize the Turkish army to prevent the radicals from do throning the sultan and precipitating a bloody revolution, has only served to heighten tho disorder. Tho most Important of the accused men now In Jail, on charges of fraud, embezzlement, oppression, falsification of records and dozens of other charges, are ltuinl 1'asha, former minister of ma rine; .Mendcuh Pasha, former minister of tho Interior; Keschla Pasha, foimer prefect of Constantinople; Tahsln Pasha, former first secretary of tho" palm e; Kaghlb Pasha, former court chamber lain, and Sheikh Abdul-Huda, former palace astrologer. Tho astrologer was the first man to urg.) the sultan to grant the constitu tion, but tho revolutionists say he did It to save his job, and they demand his punishment. (irand Vizier Klamll Pasha Is having a hard time to keep tho sultan on the throne. He fears the sultan will try to kill him and the members of the cabinet; on the other hand, the rebels demand the sultan's life. The grand vizier real izes that this will mean a revolution and Is trying hard to harmonize the two contending forces, both of which hate him and the new cabinet. The grand vizier's most unpopular measure Is the prevention of the killing of the old officials by the enraged peo ple. He has mob leaders shot and pun ishes the police for not preventing out- rUMlnlster of Public Works Oabrlel Kffcndl and Minister of Mines Prlnec Mavrogordate are both favorable to the scheme to have Hngllsh officers re organize the Turkish army, to help tho moderate cabinet keep control.

Eugeno The board I Business college and other schools open thinks that their service In the National I this fall. Guard entitles them to this and that, being trained soldiers, the necessities of the service require that they should be brought Into the field In advance of the untrained volunteers, whose will to serve their country is probably stronger than their untrained ability. There never has been a time when the organized militia was on such a good footing in the United States as It fs under the new militia law. After 1910 It will be on a par with the regular armv in the matter of equip ment discipline, and In short In every thing that goes to the making up of an effective soldiery. An awakened inter est 1h also being taken in the naval militia, and while It has never been given the opportunity to develop It self Into an effective, fighting force, such as has been afforded the land militia, thoso interested in It believe that tho dav of better things Is at jiand. and that congress Is becoming awakened to the importance of It. The navnl militia proved Its worth in the Spanish-American war. Trained to sea service, they were at once at home (m the converter cruisers and oth er vessels which were put into service in that emergency nnd demonstrated the Importance of having something beside raw material. On the whole there never was a time when the Ktnr Spangled Pan- nor has had such liberal arrangements In time of peace for its defense time of war.

Where Amertoa Is Lagging. Measured by the standards of other nations there is great need for the en couragement of rifle practice in the Vnlted States. We have only 47 organ ized government clubs, with a member ship of only about 3.000. Switzerland, with a population no larger than ours at the close of the revolutionary war, j has 3.658 clubs, with a membership of 13S.0O0. England ha 670 clubs with a membership of nearlv 50 000.
