NOTES.
Company officers who are DESTROYS Of having
frst-class teams in the gallery competitions
which will take place next month and for which
orders will be issued during the coming week
will do wisely to get their men thoroughly in-
terested in voluntary practice. The gallery is
open each week day up to 6 clock and ammu-
for each round. After little while there will
be so many men practicing that those who are
dia.ory now will surely have reason to regre:
their procrastination.
There is nothing new as to the worlds fair
trip. Gen. Ordway has written to the author
tiles, but up to this time has not received a
satisfactory or definite or any other kind of a
reply. In spite Of the fact that some of the
appearances are discouraging there is yet every
probability OF provisional regiment visiting
Chicago during the latter part Of the summer
or early in the fall. As soon as there are any
facts to be communicated to the interested
guardsmen The STAR will do the commitment
ing.
Company A, fourth battalion. is hard at work
preparing for the competitive drill which is
scheduled to take place at Norfolk, Va, on the
Goth instant. The many friends Of the Emmett
Guards are just "a anxious as is Capt. Walsh
that the boys should come out in first place.
