The activity of the state secretaries
of the National Rill® Association of j
America, Js highly gratifying to the
National Boaql far tn© Promotion of
Hi (la Practice. Coupled with the in-
terest displayed by the slate author-
ities in preparing to establish ritle
ranges and shooting galleries it would
appear that more Interest Is taKen In
this feature of military work than ov-
er before. From Rhode island comes
the report that more men qualified
this year than In any previous year.
For so small a state the record is re-
markable. With the rifle sixty qual-
ified as experts, 164 as sharpshoot-
ers, 536 as mark men, 64 as first class
as second class and 419 as third
class. In revolver shooting 104 qual-
ified aa sharpshooters and 303 as
marksmen. They give prizes in
Rhode Island to the companies turn-
ing out the largest number of marks-
men. The Governor's prize fqr the
greatest numbr of qualifications with
the rifle was won by Troop B, First
Battalion of Cavalry, with five experts
twenty two sharpshooters and 253 j
marksmen, three first class men and
two third clasa men. Troop B also|
won the Lieutenant Governor's!
Trophy for qualifying the largest
lumber of men with the revolver—15
'sharpshooters and 88 marksmen. In
1892 Rhode Island had 73 marksmen.
Ir. 1906 she had 60 experts. 164 sharp-
shooters, 626 marksmen, 64 first class,
*9 second class and 419 third class, a
total of 1292.
Tests are' shortly to be made at the
Springfield Armory under the direc-
tion of the Ordnance Department of
45 caliber revolvers and automatic
pistols. Foreign as well as American
arms will be presented for trial and
It Is expected that the weapons ulti-
mately adopted will represent a mark-
ed advance over the present service
arms. The 38 cartridge is lacking in
stopping power and it is believed that
a 45 caliber cartridge will be much
more effective. The experiments will
he made with bullets of various
shapes, Including those with round,
flat and hollow points. It Is possi-
ble a full metal-Jacketed bullet will
be adopted as more desirable for ser-
vice owing to the absence of lubri-
cant, although the wear on the bore
will be somewhat greater than with
the present lead and tin lubricated
bullet.

Matches of 1907 tnllltla offices are

In reply Assistant Secretary of <Var.
Robert Shay Olives, President of the
National Board for the Promotion of
Rifle Practice aaldi "As *he law now
klands, there Is no authority to is^uej

Consequently the state teams can
only be so armed through the states

the militia law, or charelng the value
of the same to their allotment. It
Is the Intention of the Department to
present to congress at Its coming ses-
sion the question of issuing the new
magazine rifle to the miliita without
cost to the States, following the pre-
cedent established In 1903 in the grat-
utlolus issue of Krags." This leaves
the question of which of these two
arms will be used in the National
matches next year undecided, but it
will probably b« settled satisfactorily

Plows and harrows will, f course,
be needed yet and these will be kept
