Tho Week at Sea Girt.

The beautiful rifle range on the New Jer.
sey coast Is now the centre OF interest for
American military marksmen. Founded as
State institution, 1t has acquired q ma
tional reputation by falling heir to the an
nual matches OF the National Rifle Associa-
ton. Last year these competitions were
for tho first time moved to Sea Grit from
the famous parent range at Creedmoor. and
now they again go on at the new site.
The ordinary programme Of the New Jer-
sey Rifle Association, in itself attractive. is
thus reinforced by the famous matches for
the Wimbledon Cup. the Hilton trophy. and
the Interstate military emblem. The VIM
bledon Cup. for all citizens and residents OF
the United States. Is q gift from the British
National Rifle Association. to be shot for on
tho terms OF thirty rounds at 1000 yards.
The Hilton trophy. open to military marks
men not only Of this country but Of others.
is for teams Of twelve. at 200. 500. and 600
yards, seven shots ut each. The Interstate
Is for teams OF twelve from the National
Guard OF any State or Territory. at 200 and
500 yards. ten rounds at each distance.
The Hilton and Interstate matches have
brought out. OF late years. q good variety
Of winners. In 1882 both matches went to
Pennsylvania and In 1883 to Michigan. In
1884 and 1885 the Division OF the Atlantic
team won the Hilton trophy but could not
compete for the Interstate. which went to
Pennsylvania both years. In 1886. 1887.
1883. and 1885, Massachusetts won both
matches. In 1890 the District OF Columbia
took off the Hilton trophy. but the Inter-
State fell to New York. which the following
year won both matches. while last year
both went to Pennsylvania.
But there ought to be many more COM
peutors for national honors at this annual
prize meeting OF the rihemen. In 1877. even
California sent team across the CONT
nent To Creedmoor. while in 1880 there were
no fewer than seven teams OF twelve. COM
Drislng regulars from each OF the three
military divisions and from New York. New
Jersey. Connecticut. and Pennsylvania. The
regulars from the West afterward dropped
out. on account of the cost OF travelling and
because they soon had annual competitions
of their own. The Division OF the Atlantic
continued for several years to send teams.
but from one cause or another the num-
Der OF competitors diminished until In 1891.
tho last year OF tho Hilton trophy and
Interstate matches at Creedmoor. the only
teams that shot them were those of New
York and the District OF Columbia.
The change to Sea Girt last year showed
a gain. Now York. New Jersey. Pennsylva-
mia. and the District OF Columbia all send
ing teams. But there ought to be many |
more entries. The Mississippi Valley |
should contribute its teams as well as the |
seaboard. Or. II the expense Of travel Is |
too great. the National Rifle Association |
might perhaps hold prize meeting under
the same conditions at the West. the win
ming teams in each section afterward meet
Ing on grounds agreed upon. The prepara-
ton for these contests stimulates rifle
practice In the National Guard. and thus
adds to the efficiency OF our citizen soldiers
