GALLERY PRACTICE FIRST BEFORE RANGE SHOOTING, Those Who Have Net Qualified Can- not Sheot en Ranges. The recent C. N. G. order designat- ing three field days for rifle practice have been fully discussed at the arm- ories. Men who have considered gal- lery practice too tame to devote their time to find that they are excluded from range practice by the order. One section provides that men who have not qualified as first class or better in zallery practice are barred from par- ticipating in the range practice, the closer scrutiny of the order reveais. The season for gallery practice is the entire year, so those men who have not gualified may get in the nec- essary indoor shooting. Not only will men who have failed to make good in gallery practice not be permitted to have range scores counted, but they will not be allowed to shoot. Tenth company of New London has | 30 men qualfied in gallery practice. These 30, in detachments of 10 each, will go to the ranges in Preston on Aug. 29, Sept. 21 and Oct. 25. List of Patents.

It is alieged that he was thrown off the car, his teeth were loosened, his right ear was cut internaliy and injured internally, and the accident. The writ is returnable to first Tuesday in September, LESSON FROM THE MONTVILLE MURDER Rogers Case Presents Interesting Study of Poor Human Nature. Referring to the recent murder of Mrs. Albert A. Rogers by her husband in Montville, the Hartford letter in the Shore Line Times says: But the ser- ious point in the matter for the aver- age man s that he owes it to nothing but the grace of God that he is not a criminal. Rogers had led a blameless life for fourscore years and then came a hot wave of a week's duration and he murders the woman with whom he had lived for 60 years. So far as any- one could judge the chance that this man would dle a criminal was one of the most remote that could be imag- ined. If he could do what he did what chance is there for the hest of men and what right has any one of us to sit in judgment upon the minor failings of our.fellows. There is a vein of insanity in every man—more than that in some women, judging from the recent performances of some of them in St. Paul's cathedral, and not a single one of us can tell when it will assert itself. Nothing but divine favor keeps each one of us going about his daily work in a normal way free from the police court or the first page of the newspapers. Up goes the ther- mometer and we become criminals; some blood vessel in the brain enlargeg and we are shunted off into an insti- tution for lunatics. Some more subtle lesson may occur in vein or nerve and the law gets hold of us, assuming solemnly that we are of sound mind, and we are sent to prison for a term of years. And then, assuming that we are permitted to escape from these possibilities, we dle in our own homes and our relatives grieve, after learning what property we left, instead of be- ing thankful that the undertaker got us Insiead of the warden of the prison or the keeper of the hospital for the insane.

Stephen Noyes Yerrington, whose death occurred Thursday in Northfield, Mass., at the-home of his son Henry M. Yerrington, was born in Freston, Conn., Jan. 9, 1835, one of nine chil- dren, five sons and four daughters. He was the son of Joseph Avery Yerring- ton and Mary Park Meech. He had lived nearly all his life in this vicin- ity. Oct, 4, 1848, he married Lydia E. Morse of Norwich, whose death oc- curred just five months previous to that of her husband. Mr. Yerrington was for years a dea- con of the First Congregational church in Norwich Town, and one of its most firm supporters, giving of time, money and prayer for iis interests. Serving as a member of the choir in his earlier vears he was always while living here actively identified with the affairs of this_church and societ His was a-lovable disposition, con- siderate of others, both in and beyond his own home. Tenderly devoted to his wife during the vears of her illness, his quiet life of faith in God was a benediction in the home and an e ample in the community. The active intérest of earlier years in work and the life about him was maintained through his closing years. One of the most precious possessions of this church is in the lives of such members as Mr. and Mrs. S, N. Yerrington. He is survived by one sister, Mrs. Lucius C. Fenton, of Norwich Town, two sons, H. L. Yerrington of Norwich Town and H. M. Yerrington of North- field, Mass, and by several nephews and nieces, REMEDY FOR OLD DR.
