big achievement, aud it was some time before

had watched with some show of interest the
preparatory work of selecting a team and drill

at least n hope OF victory. When the little band
departed for Crcedmoor a few people
wondered why those men were wandering
around the depot in uniform, while others who
knew that the men were soIng to the Long Island
range asked themselves if the outlay would
bring any tangible return. Even the most
hopeful of friends declared they would be sat

they would not expect them to win anything this

Those who were wont to take a good deal of
interest in the shooting. which used to wake
the echoes in the vicinity of Bennings will
need no introduction to Private Walter S. Cash.
He was born in Columbus. Ga. thirty-four
years ago, but has resided in this city for a
long time. For several years he was a member
OF the Washington Light Infantry team and as
sisted materially in the famous defeat of the
National Rifles in 1881. He was also on teams
that won the st. Matthews Sunday School

CORPORAL J. NJ. STEWART,

Born to be q first-class rineman and rapidly
taking his position as such is Corporal J. NJ.
Stewart of company A. fifth battalion. What
work he has done with the Springfield has been
extraordinary and If his Improvement con-
tinues he may yet be the champion OF at least
one hemisphere. Corporal Stewards first in
halation filled his lungs with the air then prov
alent in the highlands OF Scotland. That was
In 1868. Seven years later he was brought to
this country and here he has resided ever since.
As a sharpshooter he displays many Of the
Scottish characteristics. lie is deliberate and
calm to an extremes; t%aciturn, yet affnble when
trict National Guard in November. 1889. and
two months later won the company medal. In
July last. at the Fort Washington range, he
captured the second regiment medal. At
Crecdmoor Corporal Stewart contributed a total
OF 80 to the victorious 1917 fifth place.; and he
won prizes in the Judd. Presidents, govern
or's and all Corners matches.

brought to the front is Capt. Richard A.
O'Brien of company A, fourth battalion. He
will be major Of the fifth battalion AS soon as
the President aft xes bis autograph to the conf
mission. Capt. QBrien was born in Martins
burg, W. Va, but for the past twenty-five
years has resided in this city. In 1880 he
joined the Washington Light Infantry Corps.
Seven years later he forsook company A and
enlisted in the Emmett Guard. the company he
now commands. He was speedily promoted
on account of his efficiency and owes bis trans
fer to the fifth battalion. with higher rank, to
his answering attention TO business. Capt.
O'Brien commenced to shoot with the Spring.
field rifle on August 3, 1889, at the competition
for the fourth battalion gold medal. which he
won; an extraordinary feat. In November OF
the same year he competed for the Moore
gold medal and won that also. Capt. O'Brien

won in the Hilton match.

fit be not absurd to say that some people
were born with silver spoons in their mouths
then it will be reasonable to remark that Lieut..
+. J.. Graham came into this world with a rife
In his hands. When he was too small TO hold
. towing piece up to his shoulder he rested
the weapon in tree forks or on stumps or logs
and destroyed innumerable squirrels. Lieut..
Graham, who ia inspector Of rifle practice for
tho fourth battalion, was born in Missouri, but
when quite young emigrated to Montana and
In the latter territory he shot all kinds of big
game. from deer to Indians. He was q men,

iegiate rifle matches ever held in this country.
In the army he did good work with his gun. He

vision OF the Pacific team in the latter year,

The Hilton trophy is the biggest prize
awarded at the meeting OF the National Rifle
Association. and is the only international prize
In the United States. Competition for it is
open to all the work.. The army of the United
States may send three teams to compete for il
Cone from each of the three military divisions.)
The United States navy may send one team.
Each state or territory is at liberty to send one
team from its militia. Any and all foreign
countries are privileged to send as many teams
as there are organizations froEl the regular
army, the militia. TIL volunteers and the navy.
The trophy ia of bronze and silver. beauti-
fully wrought in a style that is purely North
American and of which the accompanying
sketch will give \ very clear idea. On the
shield, which cost $1,000, are engraved the
names OF those composing the teams which
have held it. The trophy was won in 1878 and
1879 by New York. but in 1880 the division O.
the Missouri. United States army. took it AWAY
TO ST. Louis. Then. in 1881. New York re-
captured 1t only tO lose IL tho following wear to
Pennsylvania. Michigan won it ID 1888 and
hoped to win ii again. but the regular army
the division OF the Atlantic-marched IN and
captured 1t two successive y~ears-lSsi and
1885. Then Massachusetts, sent q heavy team
TO Creedmoor and they took it in 1886. Not
content with one victory they defeated ali
corners in 1887. 1888 and 1889. This year the
District of Columbia has it-won by q green
team.
The makeup Of the verdant aggregation has
not a brilliant emerald hue when an observer
starts on: TO dissect I. but Is enough TO know
that It's title TO being real green il good when
the amount OF new material is sized up. Some
Of the men are old shots, but they are in an

when he won the Light Infantry badge and
first prize at the national drill and encamp-
ment. The best record the major has was
made in 1883. when throughout all the pre-
liminary practice of the American team, the
general shooting III England and the big
match he made the highest avcrngc-the best
aggregate of the team. At Creedmoor the
major took prizes in the judo and all corners

is one Of those men who keep markers busy
indicating bull's-eyes and close ~centers. From
his youth up the captain has always been handy
with a rifle and successful as a prize winner.
Locally he has had but few competitors ever
since Thanksgiving day, 1880, when he won the
Washington Light Infantry corps medal. Five
'iaIes has he repeated the feat Of winning that
trophy, and as three of those times we're in
be won the medal for keeps" and
the corps had to buy another one. At Ben
nings in 1882 he won the Columbia Rife Asso-
citation medal for the best score for the season.
in 1883 he shot for a position on the Creedmoor
team, captured eighth place. and did good
work at Wimbledon. He had been in a great
man. matches of local and minor importance
and always came out with credit and
medals. The Light Infantry never lost a
match when he was on their team.
He is one OF the best drilled men i'll the United
States and at the national drill held in
this city commanded the first platoon of COM
pany Is of the Light Infantry without having a
single error on his score. Capt. Cash made a
total of 80 in the Hilton match. which gives
him position No. 4. but he would have led the
score but for an unfortunate error. In the
gloom he fired On the wrong target and made a
bulls-eye. or course it was counted n miss. The
captain won prizes in the all corners, COVER
nor's and Steward matches.

Graham's position on the team in the Hilton
