they made a total score of 120 out of a
possible 150.
In the match for the Dryden trophy,
yesterday, Connecticut's team of eight
men consisted of Captain lsbell, Lieu-
tenant Alling, Corporal Alcorn, Cor-
poral Williams. Captain Stark. Ser-
geant Woodward. Captain Bloomer and
Captain Morgan. The team made 569
out of a possible 1.200, This was con-
sidered good ili view of the fact that
the Connecticut men were entirely un-
accustomed to the various ranges at
Sea Glrt, and were thoroughly tired
out with the previous ten days“ trying
work . The men shot every day, except
two. continuously from ii a. in. to 1 p.
m., and 2 to 6 p. in. On these other
two days tiny shot all day from 8 to
0:30 o'clock, not being allowed any
time for lunch even. it. was the, first
tlcut team had shot at n 1,000 yard
range. and when it came to figuring tip
the score last Wednesday it was shown
that the Connecticut men had made the
amend highest mark at this range.
Poor work on the smaller range hinder.
ed them from being higher in standing.
as it was they finally finished eighth.
They were higher than several teams
that have been on that range in for-
mer years. and made till excellent
showing beside the Army and Marine
corps teams that have been on the
range since June 10.
Major iiill took great pride in the
work of the men from this state, and
when interviewed by u-Seiitinel repre-
sentative, this morning, at the Nor-
wnlk iron Works, where he is the sup-
erintendent, he expressed himself as
being highly satisfied. lie spoke fist-
teringly of tlirl help given the (‘onnee—
iicut men by the Seventeenth New
York and New Jersey riflemen in mak-
liig them neqnalntetd with the use of
the KrngJorgensen rifle, In view of
the flirt that Connecticut men had but
less than a week in which to familiar—
ize themselves with the rifle with
which they had to shoot. Major liill
said he thought the work of the Con-
necticut men was marvelous.
Although they were allowed time in
which to practice with the Krag-Jor-
gensen on the range at Sea Girt each
man was hindered by matches being
shot there almost every day. it was al-
most impossible to set a chance‘to
shoot. It was the opinion of the New
Jersey rifiemen that the records of the
Nutmeg state then Were remarkable. it
was commonly said by some of them,
"Look at the Connecticut men. T ey
never saw u Krag before." Capt in
Bell, who was the inspector of small
arms practice said: “Well. the others
will watch your blackboard next year.
and will be afraid of you. too."
All the members at the various
teams secured national marksmen‘s
ble seventy-five, at the 200. 300 and
500 yard ranges. The Connecticut men
also received souvenir medals from the
United States government. as every
man qualified as sharpshooter. The
medals are Very handsome. and will
be highly prised.
Theonly regret of Major Hill's was
that Captain Harry Norton. of Wall—
ingford, one of the crack shots of the
Connecticut National Guard. who was
a member of the team. was called
home by a telegram before he had an
opportunity to shoot.
Massachusetts. New York, New Jer—
sey, District of Columbia and Georgia
all give medals to the men who repre—
sent their states at the national shoots,
but Connecticut has never made any
provision to provide medals for her
sharpshooters. Major Hill will go to
Hartford, next Monday, to consult with
Governor Chamberlain and Adintant~
General Cole regarding the procuring
of medsisfor the men who represented
this state.
