G THE NATIONAL GUARD! Arranging for the Big Shoot at Sea Girt. New Style of Targets Representing Men. NOTES OF THE SOLDIERS ee The program of the seventh arnual meet- ing of the Ni y State Rifle Assoctit- tion at Sea Girt next month has just been ed, and the crack shots of the District Natioral Guard have spent much time tn the past week inspecting its contents. Though the brigade will not be represented by a brigade team, as in former years, the marksmen and sharpshooters of the District, who have made good individual records at Sea Girt in the past five or six years, do not intend to be deprived of all chance for honor and prizes. ‘There are a number of matches provided for in the program which can be entered by com- pany and battalion teams and even by single gusrdsmen, and though there is no chance of competing for the Hilton trophy, which must therefore soon be moved from its resting place on the second floor of the armory, the local crack shots will still be in evidence at Sea Girt next month. The regulations governing the contest seem more numerous than those issued for any previous contest at Sea Girt. ‘There Tancer B™ are in all ferty-four of them. most important of them are: The executive officer, Gen. Bird W. Spen- ll have the control of the range for duct of the matches, and his de- on shall be final.

The use of any hat or cap will be_permitte The team competitions will be governed in all respects, except as herein modified,by the firing regulations for small arms now in force in the United States army.

In all matches the carbine will be allowed @ handicap of one point at each distance of * and 300 vards, and two points at each distance of 5) and 600 yards. The targets used in these comvetitions will be those now in use by the United States army, in practice and competitions. New Targets. ‘The most important of the foregoing rui s that in reference to the targets which all be used. A distinct innovation is to be introduced this year at Sea Girt in the matter of targets. In former years the uardsmen have shot at the regulation round bull's-eve targets, of the kind which have been in vogue at shooting contests from the time Robin Hvod and his followers first held shooting contests with bows and arrows. But the day of the round bull’s- eve has passed, and the expression “hit the bull’s-eye” will soon be obsvlete. A complete new set of targets will be used for the first time at Sea Girt next month. ‘These new targets are shaped to repre- sent a human figure. To a certain extent -y have been used in some rifle galleries Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, but ve they been used out of cors at Sea Girt. The fii get, known as target A. ts an oblong standing on end, about six feet high and nearly three feet At the bottom, a strange-looking . shaped lke the profile front view of # man lying down, is painted upon the flat surface. This represents the bull’s-eve, and if the shot strikes the figure {t counts five. According to the place on the board where the shots strike, 4, 3 and 2 are counted, as frdicated. This target is used only at 200 and 300 yu Target B ts almost a perfect square, and has the figure of a man kneeling painted upon its surface. According to the proxim- ity of the shots to the figure, the man ecores 4, 3 and 2 If the shot hits the figure it counts five. This target is used for the 500 and 600-yard ranges. ‘Target C-D is shot at only on the 800- yard range. It represents a man standing, and ts life size. he target extends on either side of the man, and the scoring is made according to which section of the | target is pierced by the bullet. The re- maining target is for the 1,000-yard range, and is known as target C-K. When close to it, 1t seems almost colossal. being eight feet high, and almost twice es broud, but off at a distance of one-fifth of a mile it di- THE EVENIN STAR. SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1897-24 PAGES. minishes in size. It has the figure of a man on horseback painted upon it, and at close distance could be hit as easily as the side of a barn. But evidently shots go wild at 1,000 yards, for provision is made for scoring even {f the bullet strikes four or five feet to the right or left of the figure. In all cases, the points scored are the same as the numbers in the divisions of the targets. Capt. King, inspector of rifle practice for the first regiment, is quite pleased with these new models’ of targets, and before the District Guardsmen leave for Sea Girt he interds to have a set of them erected at the Ordway range, so -hat the local men will not run up against a lot of strange animals at Sea Girt and get badly rattled in consequence. It is expected that these targets wiil be put up in time for the an- nual meeting at the National [tide Associa- tion at all events. and he hopes to get them out at Ordway within the next two cr three weeks. The meeting at Sea Girt does not commence until August 20, and he has plenty of time to make the neces- sary arrangements before the local men who are going get ready to depart. Engineers Going. Although a number of company teams ™may be sent to Sea Girt, the most formid- able one will undoubtedly be that cf the engineer corps. The engiieers are the best shots as an organization in the bri- gade, and they have geuerally managed to come out on top in most of the iocal com- petitions. At Sea Girt they have always stood well up, and the brigade team at Sea Girt last year, when the District won the Hilton trophy. was tnade up mostly of ergineers. Since the brigude will not send a team, these engineers intend to go as a battalion team. Arrangemenis have been talked about for the past two wecks, «nd resulted in a meeting being calied for last night at the brigade armory to finally decide how the team shall go. Of course, the team will have to pay its own ¢x- penses, but it hopes to persuade the bri- gade to furnish it with ammunition. The engineer corps, from its treasury, may pay the railroad fare, though that feature is not certain. The state of New Je: will furnish tents and cots, nd the remain- ing act expenses therefore will be small, the entry fees being the most important. But the most important feature of the proposed trip of the engineers is, that as as they will be the only battalion or reg- imental team present from the District, they wish to enter the competition for the Hilton trophy and try and retain it for the District. hey argue that their team will be almost precisely the same team that < ar shot for the brigade, and they that their improvement since then n such that tand a good of winning the The Hilton ts in tional Guard L. street, and it has been te raed by the men during the past year. None of them like the idea of giv- ng up the magnificent trophy without at least puttirg up a stiff fight to retain pos- sesston. It Is to be doubted if the engineers can obtain the permission to shoot as the team. To do that they would havi fully certified to from ade Leadquarters, and no one believes they can get such permission. The the brigade team was abolished Girt is concerned, simply be- shought Httle benefit: would i not on account of the expense, m to answer the engincc The Meeting. At the meeting last night nearly twenty of the crack shcts cf the Engineer Corps were in attendance, and Sea Girt was dis- cussed in all its phases. Major George H. Harries, inspector general of rifle practice, was expected to Le present and state the wiskes of the department of rifle practic which has alw hitherto governed the trip to Sea Girt, but he was detained in New York. For this reason, a decisi not arrived at. other than that th mental and battalion teams repre: the Engineer Corps would be sent to Girt. The corps will pay agcertain of the expen sof the men, probabl. railroad fares. The individual members o: the teams will put up the cash for the remaining expenses. hoped that th: Cepartment of rifle can be induced to give the team ammunition, as this detail amounts to considerazple sum for a big shoot like known whether Girt. It will not be brigade will do that week. for the Hilton the until some time next In regard to shooting trophy, nothing was done. It was pointed cut, however, that ten engineers will go to Sea Girt this year who last year shot cn the brigade team and won the trophy. In fact, for three years the brigade team has heen made up of ten engineers and two from other ‘iments. Capt. Bell and Lieut. Laird are the members of the brigade team who not members of the Engineer Corps. All of these engineers will go to Sea Girt to shoot in the battalion and regimental matches, and also in the company matches. If they could get permission to shoot for the District for the Hilton trophy, they would undoubtedly make a high score. The Matches. The matches on the calendar for the Sea Girt meeting are practically the same as those scheduled last year. There are twenty-two matches of the New Jersey State Rifle Association, open to various company, battalion and regimental teams. the prizes of which vary from $5 to 3100. A numbor of them are open to individual marksmen. The matches of the National Rifle Association are those which always attract national attention. The Whimble- don cuv match is the first one scheduled and is open to all citizens and residents of the Uniied States. Distance, 1,000 yards. Thirty shots. The prize is the Whimble- don cup, presented by the National Rifle Association of Great Britain to be held by the winner until the next fall meeting. The winner of the trophy is required to give a bond in the sum of $500 to the New Jersey State Rifle Association, or if he does not desire to give such bond, then the cup will be deposited with the adju- tant general of his state until the next meeting. This was won last year by Capt. George T. Cann of Georgia. The Hilton trophy match is the biggest event on the card, and is open to teams of twelve men from the army, navy and Na- tional Guard of the United States and of all other countries. The trophy, a hand- some piece of bronze work, was presented by Mr. Henry Hilton of New York. It is valued at $3,000. It has been won three times by the District of Columbia, in 1893, 1895 and 1896, but this year it seems des- tined to go either to Georgia or Peunsyl- Vania. The only remaining match is the inter- state military match, open to teams of twelve men from the National Guard only. The prize is a large bronze “Soldier of Marathon," valued at $350. It has been shot for annually since 1875, and was won in 1893 by the District of Columbia. Practice Ru: The Miles Cycle Infantry took a practice run last Saturday and Sunday to Fort Russey out the 7th street pike. A large portion of the company, under the com- mand of Lieutenant Weaver, set out in heavy marching order Saturday evening and camped out over night near Fort Rus- se They were joined in the morning by Capt. Wiggin, and the day was spent prin- clpally in practicing signal duty, in which the men are becoming unusually efficient. The company returned to the city Sunday evening. Discharges and Transfer: Eugene K. Stewart, jr., a private in Company A, Ist Battalion, has been hon- crably discharged on his own application. On account of removal from the District, Private G. Albert Taylor, Company B, Ist Battalion, has also been granted an honor- able discharge. On account of expulsion from his company, Eugene A. Burton, pri- vate, Company A, 2d battalfon, has been “ishonorably discharged. Private Charles A. Stewart, Company B, 4th Battalion, has Leen transferred to Company D, Bat- talon. Cavalry Troop. An effort is being made to revive the cavalry branch of the District National Guard, which was mustered out of service some wecks ago. The chief point of com- plaint against the cavalry trocp in the past has been that it was more expensive than any other command, and that less good re- sulted from it. The reorganized troop, which met Thursday evening at 922 F street, hopes to be favorably considered in view of a rule adopted by it, which pro- vides that each man must own or furnish his horse at each turn out, without expense to the District. It is understood that Gen- eral Ordway is willing to approve of a cavalry iroop under such circumstances. Lieut. E. H. Pillsbury, has been elected chairman of the troop, pending the elec- tion of other officers. The full membership has not yet been reached, but recruiting is going on at a lively rate. Drills will be held each Thursday evening, the first one taking place next week. Gen. Ordway's condition during the week was reported slightly better. A number of the guard officers called upon him, though the visits were principally of a friendly rature, to inquire after his health. In spite of his illness, Gen. Ordway insists on tak- ing an active interest in the National Guard, and it is currently hoped that he will soon be about again. Thetr Welcome. When the Morton Cadets departed for San Antonio the stay-at-home members of the company, and, in fact, the guard gen- erally, were sure that the boys would drill with credit and bring home some prize near the top of the list. Now that the d‘spatches from the Texas city have been so favorable to the Mortons, and there seems such a reasonable ground for be- Heving the Mortons will get the first award tomorrow evening, the local men have al- ready commenced preparations for a royal reception to the company next We-lIncsday evening, when they reach this city. Of course, if the Mortons only take second place, the quantity of red fire that will be burnt will necessarily be smaller than if they brought home the Galv2ston cup, but in any event, they have made such a gcod showing that a iarge portion of the Na- tional Guard will turn out to welcone them. So far the reception has only be2n talked of, but the stay-at-home members of the Mortons have already on hand a large sup- ply of red fire to burn Wednesday night as the cadets march up the avenue. Capt. Edwards of the Corcoran Cadets will at once call out his company as a volunteer escort to welcome the Mortons, und a similar invitation will be extended to all the other companies in the guard to parade with the Corcorans. This has been Capt. Edwards’ prerogative for a number of years, and he has always been the first in the field to call out his command to wel- come back the heroes of interstate drills: Zhe Fencibles, whom Capt. Edwards wel- comed back two or three times, will, it is expected, at once join the Corcorans. In all probability, Col. Alexander will be in command of the entire escort, since the Mortons belong to his regiment. —————_——_ Electric Garlands, Says a Nashville correspondent: A per- manent feature of spectacular value has been added to the general effect of the iighting at night. The French commission- er brought from Paris two of the electric garlands that were swung across the prin- cipal boulevards of the French capital when the Czar of Russia visited there. They are uniquely constructed, and the colors are so arranged that the effect from a distance is that of an immense garland of gorgeous flowers. ‘These garlands have been hung at ap altitude of fifty feet across the ave- nue which extends from the Parthenon to the Commerce uilding. They have the alue of absolute originality to American ey Another ttraction which the military ficial: re think they will secure for the early autumn is the encampment of West Point cadets and a troop of Uncle Sam's ‘avalrymen. There is a social value in the campment of the West Pointers which ss demonstrated to advantage at the world’s fair and which would c rtainly be improved to its fullest possibilit here.

In mining for gold in Siberia the ground is kept clear of snow, so as to permit the cold to penetrate as deeply as_ possible, after which the surface is thawed by fires until a shallow layer of earth can be re- moved. The freezing 1s then allowed to proceed and the thawing operations re- peated, and this is continued as long as the cold weather iasts. In this way through the long Siberian winters open excavations are made to the gold-bearing rocks, the depths obtained being from twenty-five to seventy-five feet, according to the duration of the cold season. Artificial cold for the purposes of exca- vation was first used by Poetsch in 1883. By his well-known process of cold brine through a series of buried pipes the most difficult quicksand may be made hard enough to be excavated like rock. In the article under consideration are given gen- eral {illustrations and details of the appa- ratus used in sinking the shafts at the Courrieres mines, together with formulas enabling the safe thickness of the frozen wall to be computed for round or square shafts of any given dimensions. Among the important applications of the freezing process are noted the sinking of the shaits for the cylinders of the hy- draulic elevator for the canal lift at Les Fontinettes, and the construction of the tunnel at Stockholm.
