The big national matches with which the activities of the shooting camp will close. are now under way. Fif- ty-seven teams are participating, a far greater number than ever before attended these annual events, in spite | ¥7the fact that the border mobiliza- tion kept many national guard uni as well as the army and navy participating. The cause of this splendid attendance—the high water mark previously was but 46 teams— has been largely the entrance of the civilian riflemen of the country into the national match game, twenty- eight teams from citizen rifle clubs be- under canvas here. In addition there are teams from the Coast P tillery Corps and Marine Co 7 ional Guard ore zations also. r events were pretty well di among different sections of the country rep- resented.

The National Rifle association matches have also brought into prom- inence many civilian shots, who while they won none of the big events, made scores which prove them to pos- sess those qualities which will ulti- mately make of them finished sol- diers and dangerous competitors in future matches. One of the most sensational events of the meeting was the firing of a string of fifty-three bull's eyes straight by Lieutenant Clyde E. Bra- den of the West Virginia tfonal Guard. This performance is, so far as is known here, the world’s record for the distance at which they were shot—600 yards.

The commission has announced that it suspended from October 26 until April 26, 1917, certain items in New Haven railroad tariffs which contain 2 proposed new rule for the assess- ment of additional demurrage charges on cars held in transit or on storage tracks at destination. During the next six months the commission will make a careful investigation of the question. The regular demurzage charge is $1 per car per day. The suspended pro- vision is for a $5 per day additional charge on cars on public delivery tracks, private sidings or industrial in- terchange tracks. It would take effect, if the commission permits, after the expiration of five days following the placement of the car at the point ordered, designated or agreed upon. That would make a demurrage charge of $6 per day. The provision was suspended be- cause of protests from Boston and other New England shipping interests, The treasury departments has pro- mulgated regulations drafted to | carry out the provisions of the new law for a tax on munitions of war. There are many muntions manufac- tories in New England; consequently the regulations may be of interest in that section.

We have told the people of New Britain many times during the last ten years that Vinol is the greatest remedy for chronic coughs and colds that we ever sold. Mr. Dunning “I took a heavy eold which settled into a chronic cough. It scemed as as though I coughed continually day and night, so I could not sleep. I W all run-dawn and so weak I could hardly keeep about. I tdied different ough medicines but seemed to sget worse instead of better. T went to the drug store and got a bottle of Vinol.
